Tracker is definitely very good. But I don't think it's powerful enough to supplant Snapcaster Mage.
I think Tracker would make more sense in a GSZ BUG deck.
This is one of the most fun looking Legacy decks I have seen in a long time. Wow.
Shardless into Sinkhole, are you kidding me?? That seems awesome. I'm definitely going to give this a try; my...
It's both. But in the past non blue fair decks were able to make up for their weaker combo matchups by being favored against blue fair decks.
Nowadays, why bother when blue you gives a much better...
Interesting discussion going on here. First and foremost I will disagree with the notion that Czech and Delver are the same deck, I think they are pretty clearly different strategically. And perhaps...
Hey folks, I created a Delver Discord. Link
It's extremely rare for a deck to be 80% favored against another in Legacy, the only matchups that are that lopsided are things like Sneak and Show vs Lands, or Elves vs DnT.
Shardless and Jund...
I'd be happy to help you test against Pile. Unfortunately I'm usually only available weeknights after around 9 PM Pacific Time, which I know is not really convenient for people who live on the east...
Other than Storm, combo matchups for UWr or straight UW blade are not bad at all. Storm is the only one that's distinctly unfavorable, and it's not particularly popular at the moment. SnS, Elves,...
Worth noting that if you really want to beat Pile, RG Lands eats it for breakfast. Obviously it's not an auto-win because you can lose to some timely Surgical Extractions, and Leovold can sometimes...
Oops, my bad. Fixed!
Thank you for posting this, it's a nice guide and it does a good job of illustrating how sideboarding strategy can vary a lot depending on which variant of Blade you're playing, and your specific...
Most Storm lists aren't playing Swarms (or green at all) these days. If I saw a green dual game 1, or if I saw green cards game 2, I'd consider leaving bolts in. Otherwise they are just lava spikes,...
Hello folks, I just finished putting up the new UWx Stoneblade primer here: http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/showthread.php?31962-Primer-UWx-Stoneblade
Thanks a bunch to everyone who helped out,...

UWx StoneBlade
UWx StoneBlade is a control deck (or rather, an archetype of control decks) built around the powerful Stoneforge Mystic together with some of the powerful blue staples of Legacy....
Your input would still be much appreciated :)
So I've gotten the go-ahead from Dice to create a new UWx blade primer. It will be a primer for all Blade decks not including Deathrite.
If anyone would like to collaborate with me on the primer,...
Yeah, I don't think it's particularly viable, just kinda sweet.
Tragic Lesson is...interesting, to say the least. But I agree the initial cost might be a bit steep, even if you can recover a mana...
I remember Adam Prosak used to run Ignorant Bliss when the meta was heavy on Hymns...probably not viable tech anymore, but you could try it :P
Certainly a sweet card, but in a deck with so many basics I don't think we need to be that concerned with decks that are targeting our lands. Against Landss I'd rather just play blood moon and win...
Hi everyone. I noticed that the primer for blade control is pretty outdated. I have some experience with the deck and have been playing it a bit recently, so I was wondering if anyone would be...
Any reason why you don't recommend bringing in Back to Basics against Shardless? You recommend them against Jund, and Shardless has a manabase that's about equally as greedy as Jund, and also...
Great work on this primer Minniehajj :smile:
This may not be the right place for this, but does anyone find it odd that Blade Control and Deathblade have been moved to DTB based on tournament placings that seem to be mostly Bant Deathblade, but...
