    Re: [DTW] UW(x) Landstill

    @ Rockout, Citrus-God

    ok ok. But if you're playing blossom you'll be playing with Cunning-PoF?

    Goyf does have its weaknesses (mainly making opposing removal relevant), but I have find it quite...

    Re: [DTW] UW(x) Landstill

    Yes, but goyf gives you a fast clock against combo and a big wall against aggro, which is what we need. Plus, it makes standstill less conditional.

    Re: [DTW] UW(x) Landstill

    Well, I also believe Bardo's list has potential, I'm not sure of the B splash though. Just some more thoughts on counterbalance (some discussed a lot of pages ago XD!) and a UWg list:

    Yeah, adding...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    I haven't deveoped any ideas nor played the deck in a torunament since long ago. However, it might be interesting to point out that the tutor-balance strategy is more suitable in a dreadstill UW...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    The planeswalker seems interesting and worth testing;
    However, I don't think it is superior to decree.
    It is a better fog early game, no doubt, but it doesn't have the impact decree has in the late...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    Well, after some testing I have come to some conclusions:

    Thoughtseize is the strongest early game play besides a turn two standstill with a clear board.
    It enables you to anticipate your...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    Hi,
    I believe it is a great idea to include thoughtseize maindeck for all of the reasons you stated. It really looks nice in the mainboard. Spell snare is not a good card for this deck unless your...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    the counterbalance converted mana cost is not that terrible since you have to add + nš enlightened tutors you run to cmc 2 and 3 (and 4)

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    Well, if you choose play you'll be able to cast an early standstill more easilly since you have a more established board.

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    Well, the problem I see is that if you play both Moat and Humility all your wincons will be affected:
    your decree and factory's will be a colorless land and a bad cantrip under moat, whereas your...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    One thing we must decide first is wehter to play Humility OR Moat.
    Humility has the advantage of shutting down many problematic abilities of creatures and works greatfully with factorys. However,...

    Re: [DTB] UW(x) Landstill

    Yes, perhaps its time to look again at the tutor version.
    What I have found from my experience with the deck:

    Re: [DtB] UW(x) Landstill

    Possibly.
    the whole point of lowering the mana curve is to lower the amount of lands enabling you to play counterbalance (a very powerful card in the format). I really understand your...

    To develop the thread I will start posting a uw decklist and discuss some of the points freakish777 has made.
