Thanks!
My bad, I didn’t read your tone as negative at all, it was just laying things out with more context. Reading it back what I said came across more scathing than I intended!

I didn't have a lot of reps with the deck before the event so take what I say with a grain of salt (I basically copied Iwouldliketoresponds list and then he changed a couple of things), but I had...
Or you can get Necrotic Ooze as the 3rd Buried Alive target and just Animate Dead that after making all the mana.
Nah, I would have loved to get a Lotus for years but it's way too much money to justify, especially when you factor in how much you can use it. This 'unobtainability' is very real. Sure you may be...
Cool, Amber looks pretty good to me so that's nice feedback. I think I'll just try 1 to start though, but we'll see. Emry coming out quickly def helps it.
Agree on the interaction front and I...
The deck is a blast for sure.
I had a Forge as a Karn wish target for a bit but it underperformed since all the best cards in the deck apart from more Karns and situationally Chalice aren't...
What's your manabase like to support Teferi? I want to test Oko in the deck too but I'm not sure what's the best way to build it. Maybe fetches, but the deck has felt nice with loads of basics.
...
Nice job! How were the Surgical Extractions and Dazes?
I'm not fully on board with cutting discard spells and a Preordain honestly, especially a Cabal Therapy.
Last night I did some...
Definitely. Or if you have Adaption out Lackey can put anything in, or Matron can tutor for any creature. Let's make it happen.
Needs more Goblin Lackeys
Mmm this is nice! I'll give it a whirl soon as you say.
Yeah all good, thanks for suggesting it! The deck can play out differently to how it looks on face value and is a bit unintuitive in...
I tried CB out a bunch in the early lists. It's OK, but a bit low power level and 2 mana is a lot for this deck.
I think Regrowth falls into what you quoted actually, it's expensive in the...
OK, I'll try and get around to trying it soon! I can see the potential. I think at the beginning I may have zoned in on just fetching Phoenixes, but it is pretty gross with YP and Therapy.
I tried Land Grant in a Rit/Buried shell through a league last night, base BUG with Goyfs over YPs and a couple of Decays in the main, it felt horrible unfortunately.
I would usually give it some...
It's interesting alright!
This is my gut reaction
- smallballing Phoenixes generally isn't a winning play in the format. What I mean by that is discarding them to a looting effect and getting...
Lighting Bolt is still a good card. I think Forked is probably better in this deck, but it's not going to be a huge difference.
I've actually been a bit disappointed with Flusterstorms and Spell...
Glad to hear you're enjoying it and having some success!
Bobs are indeed great, really nice addition. I have been seeing the lack of Tombstalker hurts the Delver matchups though, but that's one of...
Probably not honestly, it seems like a natural synergy of Reclamation wanting ramp but land based ramp rather than fast mana, but if the deck was able to play with natural land drops it could be fine.
The win cons are Nexus of Fate, Blue Sun's Zenith or Empty the Pits.
The deck is control, you play a long game and with BSZ you essentially can draw your deck which then lets you use Nexus to take...
Yep, instant speed would be the reason to play it.
But we have our own threats and ways to close out the game already, in my experience so far it's been hard to even get Echoing Truth to land on...
Cantrips are really, really damn good. I've seen a lot of people on various platforms cutting them and I don't really understand it.
I think you'll be at the mercy of topdecks and p fire is all...
The deck may be a pile but I'm glad we established a good name for it.
Hey! I agree, now that I've played vs it too I really struggle to sb vs it from a number of decks, it's certainly one of this decks biggest strengths which is nice. Bob has especially performed.
...
I've had a decent number of people ask if there's a discord channel for the deck. I was intending to keep info to this thread, at least at the beginning, but there's been enough interest in the deck...
