    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    First off - thanks for all the comments and advice. I am definitely mulling over these things, but I don't think I ever had more than 5 mana in my pool at any given moment for the turn - part of the...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    The one last night was postboard, and gearing up for it, I put 2 Dryad Arbors, 2 Forests, 2 Bayous, a Gaea's Cradle, Pendelhaven, and Cavern into play, and drew up to 7 cards in hand (we were staring...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    So I've ran into this problem twice in 8 rounds over the past 2 days.

    2x Glimpse chain going off, I draw 10 lands and fizzle out. Am I just extremely unlucky or is there a point where I'm...

    What is the logic behind Progenitus these days?

    between Ruric Thar and Elderscale Wurm, I feel like everything Progenitus has to offer me is either less good than Ruric in the same situation or...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    When talking art alterations on cards that will be played in higher level competitive events, remember that the art must be 'recognizable' and it's at the head judges discretion.

    I like the...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Took this beast of a list to a Cash Tournament today and did well enough with it:

    Creature (29)
    1x Birchlore Rangers
    2x Craterhoof Behemoth
    4x Deathrite Shaman
    4x Elvish...

    @toletole

    Cutting NO revolves a lot around being able to fit it in the deck once you have the SB cards you need. There was typically 0 room for NO vs decks like Miracles, but it was somewhat...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    I too have been running WRP against the greater groupthink and have suffered exactly 0 blowouts to Fatal Push. Not saying it can't happen, but it seems very unlikely given the way the deck...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Being primarily a D&T player myself, CN2 has done basically nothing to solve the Elves problem for the deck. The best new card we have access to on the D&T side of the table is Thalia 2.0 and she's...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    I actually ran the 1-of in the MB at a weekly yesterday. He did exactly what I expected. Was a 3 mana Elvish Visionary that I eventually championed into Wren's Run Packmaster. The Board got wiped...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Because Elves is very often 2 plans mashed together into 1 deck. While Elves is often called a combo deck, it's quite bad at pulling off said combo and is not resilient at all when it comes to...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    So maybe focus on the Chaos Elves style of build with 3-4 copies of Nether Void in the MD? I'll brew some stuff up tonight and see if I can push the idea more.

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    The more I think about it, the more I really like the Nether Void idea as SB tech. It hits both combo and control MUs (admittedly inconsistent in how quickly we could get it down vs combo), so it...

    @Shagstaman, what does a list with 0 changes look like? I'm still putting the deck together and have been trying a lot of different configurations on Xmage, current version looks like this:

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    I don't have many high level results with Elves in general, but playing with Silkweaver Elite online for the past couple of days, he is more often than not just an overcosted Visionary #5, and that's...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Leo is the spicy tech that I was kinda expecting criticism on for the fact that 1) There is no blue in the deck outside of DRS/Cavern/Birchlore and 2) the fact that Leo + Silkweaver brings the deck...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Alright, I primarily play D&T when it comes to legacy, but have been goofing off with Elves on XMage for a few months now and learning the ins and outs of the deck. I think it might be the most...
