I've been doing -1 Infernal, -1 Chrome Mox, -2 Ponder for 2 Confidants and 2 bounce spells against lists with Innocent Blood. I don't board them in against lists with plow, usually, but most of the...

I don't mind you disagreeing, but there's really no need to be a dick about it. I totally agree that the matchup isn't hard and that not a lot of help is needed, but it's been my experience that Dark...
No shit it's been done since Iggy Pop. And of course TES can do it as well - I just made the comment because its much easier for lists with Cabal Ritual to perform it than Rite of Flame.
Confidant...
This sounds like the start of an infomercial advertising your own version of storm using Cabal Ritual and Grim Tutors.
Against blue, I think it basically comes down to Xantid Swarm is the...
In those matchups, we need to draw into enough Duress effects in order to win usually. Bob is going to help us do that faster than they can draw into more counters while also ensuring we're able to...
If you're using Bryant's list, I would consider a Tundra instead of a City to hit white much more consistently. I don't really like City in such a color hungry deck as this one. A Tundra should also...
I saw your list on Morphling earlier. I happen to be a fan of maindeck Iggy as well (though I disagree with removing Infernal) - it just cements the matchup against aggro so much and it isn't half...
Yeah, I'll do that too. They often don't counter the Burning Wish when we don't have mana for whatever reason, thinking we're just going to get Thoughtseize. EtW can usually outrace them - Pyroblast...
Yeah, this is really the main reason to run Pyroblast over REB and I've actually had it come up quite often.
I actually find myself wishing for Thoughtseize quite often, so I'm not sure I...
If you happen to own a Tundra, you might consider that as well as it might be better than the third city. Some people even prefer it over the second city.
That's why he said it shouldn't be in your sideboard?
Regarding the sideboard, I sometimes have difficulty figuring out what to side out. It's usually some combination of Infernal Tutor, Chrome...
Running the Volcanic for Pulverize does make sense, though I don't play Pulverize. I've hardly ever had problems with running out of red sources versus Wasteland though. I very rarely need it more...
Needs more Carnage Altar.
Why do you need the second Volcanic Island? I've been playing -1 Volcanic, +1 Scalding Tarn, +1 Bloodstained Mire and 3 Chrome Moxes. I also regularly side out a...
Against Ethersworn, getting Shattering Spree/Pulverize is usually better anyway. That said, I do like Pyroclasm in the sideboard against decks that go all in on a bunch of tokens like Dredge and...
I actually play a 3c version with Thoughtseize over Silence/Chant because I was disappointed with both cards when I tried them, so I'm not entirely sure how often either of those come up. But a...
Also, Silence gets around Leyline of Sanctity whereas Orim's Chant does not.
