    Re: [Deck] Elves!

    A pair of Nettle Sentinels is a surprising amount of pressure, especially with the threat of comboing off always looming. It's my favorite Elf not named Quirion Ranger.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I've been on K-Grip for months and never regretted it. I honestly can't see why it hasn't been more popular. I run it instead of Needle and it's always been an all-star.

    I've also been using...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I've tried it and it's been fine, but only when I have another fatty in the MD, like Ruric Thar. It's not a risk I like to take anymore, but it's not unheard of.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Ooze dies easily as others have pointed out, so the big drawback is having to wait until you can slam him and activate him for decent life gain and/or attack your opponent's GY. By that time, it's...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    So, I managed to scratch my way into the top 4 (3rd overall) of a 28-man Legacy GPT last night. Through five rounds of Swiss, finished 4-1 and the 1st overall seed going into the Top 8. Opponents...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Sneak and Show, for the simple reason that it invalidates Emrakul. Also not a bad NO/GSZ target against the white Blade decks. Personally, I don't like it much, since it's only relevant in a very...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Against BUG Delver/Team America style decks, Sylvan Library wins games. That's a matchup I've played literally hundreds of times, and I'm telling you, with the way those games grind out, card...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Your argument assumes that the Elves player is very stupid and is casting Blood Moon when he needs an active Cradle to win, or worse, is playing it against an opponent with Lightning Bolts when he...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I'm not on board with all of this, but I think you're exactly right about Blood Moon--it's a card I've considered running before but never had the stones to give it a go. It's key that you can...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    That's often the idea, but for me it depends on the deck. Speaking for myself, if I was worried about playing around soft permission like Daze I would fire it off on T1/T2, just because when the...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    +1. All of mine are foil, and I think the Future Sight foil Dryads are head-and-shoulders better-looking cards than FTV.
