    I think I'd sooner play Dust Bowl.

    Re: [Primer] R/G Lands

    I don't want more cards. I want a vibrant Legacy scene with ~20+ players showing up weekly like we had here a few years ago.

    Re: [Primer] R/G Lands

    Yeah, the reprint policy sucks ass. :frown:

    Worst thing is that Lands is arguably the best deck to "stick it" to Grixis and Czech good-stuff that seem to be dominating the top8s. Lands has 3...

    Given the recent spike, this might be the only affordable Tabernacle on the market now.

    EDH.

    It's not a terrible effect - just not enough value for 3 mana (or 1 card).

    4 Exploration + Manabond
    4 Mox
    4 Gamble
    4 Crop Rotation
    4 Loam
    4 PF/MV

    That's 60 cards. I assume you have cut at least 1 spell to make room for 2x EE?

    Normally people cut into the...

    Do you think the cycling utility would make that better than a Trop?

    Re: [Primer] R/G Lands

    Even with a white splash, Nodes will not be as reliably castable as Drop is.

    There is no substitute per se. Engineered Explosives actually does Drop's work a lot better than Drop. But EE builds...

    Re: [DTB] R/G Lands

    If you have Trips, EE is solid there.

    Chasm lock as mentioned (most UW Blade decks are light on Wasteland).

    You want to bring in lots of Grips for their equipment (and try not to let them untap...

    DTB 2 months in a row now!

    And dollars-to-doughnuts Lands sees less than half as much competitive play as any other archetype on the short list. Our deck rocks!

    With Sphere in hand, this is post board and we should know exactly what we are facing. FoW isn't enough information here.

    I assume you are familiar with the Jund lists developed by David Long and co. during the SDT era?

    As for just a splash, I used to run a single Bayou only for AD in the boards and to bolster EE. I...

    Re: [DTB] R/G Lands

    Playing AR and EE means you are playing a slower, control game more often. DRS decks aren't exactly killing us quickly, so take your time and grind them into the dirt.

    Not to say tutoring for AR...

    DRS can't eat EE; which is probably our best answer for KotR.

    Re: [DTB] R/G Lands

    TT is a card advantage engine, while this is an exploration effect, so they serve different purposes. I like that the 5 toughness makes it hard to remove, but I'm not sure it's good enough to cut...

    Re: [DTB] R/G Lands

    It's too expensive for decks to board in as an effective counter to our dedicated LD package.

    For us, I don't think it can replace Tracker because Tracker is good w/o a graveyard while WS is...

    Not surprising looking at the other decks in that list - 3 fair decks with excessively greedy mana, Miracles, plus our second least hated (and very winable) combo match. Excellent...

    We still are anywhere from a huge favourite to a small favourite vs all the fair decks (excpet Burn and Prowess). Elves is a very good match too, so we are only really afraid of Sneak show,...

    Leovold doesn't effect us too badly because we don't take extra draws very often (we usually replace them). Ways to deal with Leovold:

    Don't let them get 3 coloured mana in the 1st place (easier...

    I don't understand the question.

    If a deck with 3 basics has 1 dual and 1 basic in play, GQ becomes a Strip Mine on the 3rd activation regardless of which land you target 1st. Might as well hit...

    This is another situation where Engineered Explosives does a ton of work and can swing tbe match in your favour.
