    +1. Looks like a solid list to me as well.

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Going down to 2 Revokers really is a metagame call. I usually feel anxious going below 4 maindeck, because there are just so many things that it's good against. Maybe I'm just playing in a...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I interviewed Thomas Enevoldsen today for a Magic podcast. We talked about his Magic-playing career, and also discussed his experiences with Death and Taxes.

    Although we focused on general Magic...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I think I'd rather play Sunlance or Gut Shot than Path to Exile. Or just play 2x Council's Judgment as a catch-all.

    It wasn't addressed to anyone here specifically. Sorry if it came across that way.

    It was a rant directed against the Salvation boards, and why I have a hard time taking 80% of the content there...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Can I quote this? I guess I just did.

    Financial cost should never be a reason to dismiss a card in Legacy. And it's hard to dismiss variations of builds without personally playtesting it. That's...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Agree with above poster, RUG Delver is probably at least a 70-30 matchup for us both pre- and post-board. You definitely play the control role. Barring some sick hands from them (ultra fast Delver...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    If Merfolk can run Vial and Chalice in their 75, we could definitely give it a try here.

    I'm pretty convinced that the meta today is defined by the new pillars Chalice, LED and DTT. To not run any...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    That's right, there is a fair bit of fast combo around. I understand that CJ answers "everything," and that its run of the board, but here's more justification for why I don't like it:
    - there are...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Yes. Your mileage may vary, but I've not had much success with the card.

    Very situational, usually 4 CC with Thalia on the table, and there are better ways to beat/race TNN.

    I wouldn't keep it. Falls hard to a lot of decks (Delver, Combo).

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Yeah Omnitell is tough. Most of our cards become blanks. The few times I've been successful have been active vial, Canonist on board, with another Canonist in hand. Mother of Runes becomes key here...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I'd keep 3) on the draw, mull otherwise.
    I would *maybe* consider mulling 4) and 7) due to a combination of no 1 drop play and having an equipment in hand. In a stoneforge deck the equipment is a...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Good reasoning and good scenario list. I'll go back to 4x for a while and see what happens. (likely good things)



    You're right, I haven't. Then again, if they have Wasteland and multiple...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    That's a sweet list, very tightly constructed. Looks like your meta must be all Storm and Elves :) I like the 4x Canonists.

    I will challenge the sacred cow here and say that I enjoy running 3x...

    Read the coverage. Looks like the singleton spirit is good for a blowout once in awhile :cool:

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Obviously I need to test, but in theory Brimaz isn't needed. The vial/karakas tricks with Thalia seem enough, and they can never block the 2/1 first striker. Unless you're thinking that Brimaz is a...
