What Dice said about giving someone the shuffle/can you afford the tempo loss and what you say here about expecting a wasteland later is what i was interested in.

Question for those of you playing the 4x ghost quarter build: when playing against a deck with 3 or fewer basics (ANT, czech pile, reanimator... Etc), do you prioritize destroying basics with ghost...
Heaven // Earth might have some potential
Wouldnt call it a grip replacement but I like it since you can copy other peoples permanents with stage. They get a tree and you get their best creature/planeswalker.

Never too much of a rant :) thanks for being so thorough sib

I know this wasn't the main point of your post i have some philosophical differences with this statement. I consider siding out some number of mox diamond when the extra mana isn't worth the 2 card...
Chalice on 1 helps.

If you were to run megaliths, you'd also have another red source to activate vortex which can be relevant. I'd worry about prelate locking spells in your hand, to which manabond would be the only out...
Lets say the average number of plains in a DnT list is 10. Even with exploration, loam and 2 GQs, it would take you 5 turns to run them out of plains. Alot can happen in 5 turns of legacy. To tie up...
Death and Taxes. Found this out the hard way this weekend playing the GQ build. You lose the ability to turn off white mana before the end of their turn so you become dependent on repeatedly jamming...
I've been enjoying the 4 ghost quarter build for about a week now. The only time i missed port was when my miracles opponent surgically extracted Ghost quarter...
Recently I played a game against painter where my opponent surgically extracted my loam after turn 1 and it got me thinking. How conservatively do you guys play around surgical extraction? The...
I think i also prefer it as a 1 of. There are very few situations where activating GQ feels like a play that advances the game in my favor. It's won me games against shardless bug, eldrazi, delver,...
An army in a can, repeatable nature's spiral, and an unremovable source of card advantage if uncontested for 1 turn, stapled to a hard to remove permanent. I dig it :cool:
Was thinking along the same lines. sylvan safekeeper, thought-knot seer, phyrexian revoker, ingot chewer and deathrite shaman also came to mind.
The other thing i like about wish is that a piece...
Makes worm harvest much easier to cast which barcode is running 1 of.

If miracles is casting entreat, you've most likely already lost. Tabernacle will make no difference there. Anecdotally, ive never had an issue. When both worm harvest and tabernacle are live, i...
I played 4 color loam at the event and my round 1 opponent made a point to show off his main board tech. I can only speculate on how effective lands would have been against this person instead of 4c...
Went to eternal extravaganza over the weekend. Several miracles players were running MD ruination. I hope this is just a fad :cry:
Rudy briksza seems to think so (source: http://articles.mtgcardmarket.com/the-legacy-gauntlet-force-of-will-fair-decks/). I guess instead of reactively dealing with their hate, you pro actively...
It testing, worm harvest and ghost quarter over performed. I tend to see a lot of lands at larger tournaments and those cards are mirror breakers, as well as bojuka bog. Are you running riftstone...
Top 4ed a 1k this saturday.
Here's a link to the report:...
Been thinking the same as of late. I went back to a punishing fire build and decay hasn't felt spectacular in it but i like having a mainboard hedge against miracles/eldrazi. I know other people here...
He also played savannah and karakas main to support 4 containment priests post board. Really interesting choices for sure.
I would not recommend bringing ANT to a room full of eldrazi. Chalice, TKS, and thorn of amethyst are a nightmare for them. If the eldrazi deck scares people off of ANT, belcher and TES may be the...
