Postman had his Ugin Karned in the MUD matchup on saturday, but frankly, the mono colorless deck seems among the worst spots to resolve Ugin against.

I have lost in a test game to burn spells...

Played a list with 4 Ancient Stirrings, 2 Ugin, 3 Revoker and on a whim, 4 Repeal over the Brainstorms in a 6 round event on Saturday. Wasn't particularly impressed, but the metagame felt rather...

I never cared for Cruise in this deck, so I'm entirely indifferent in that regard. If anything, this might hurt us a bit if it indeed leads to an increase in deck variety, as we are both a more...

As a random aside, the German version of Ugin is significantly more powerful than the English one with the -X ability destroying all permanents of CMC X or MORE. If you're into those kind of...

I'm on 3 Titans, a Titania, 4 GSZ and a bunch of sweet targets right now instead of the SnTs and am liking it so far. I don't think there's a point in running a GSZ over a Titan if you don't have...

The point of Relic is that it ultimately cycles, unlike Tormod's Crypt. It's just a minor mana bump on the way, so it's not that bad in matchups where it doesn't do anything.

My issue with Show...

Even better, put the cumulative upkeep trigger on the stack, crop rotate something else into a Vesuva copying Glacial Chasm, sacrifice the original Chasm to the ETB trigger of the Vesuva copy, then...

I don't know, if you have the time to Trinket Mage for the Amulet, play it, have neither be countered and then still profit off the untap effect before you die I have a hunch you weren't under that...

That's not true, Rock Lee. The Eldrazi shuffle trigger is a zone change trigger that hinges on the Eldrazi entering the Graveyard from anywhere, depends on the text the card has when it enters the...

As promised, a more detailed report. List I registered on Saturday:

4x Cloudpost
4x Glimmerpost
2x Vesuva
4x Misty Rainforest
1x Scalding Tarn
3x Tropical Island
2x Island
1x Forest

Back from GP Strasbourg, slightly disappointing 6-6 across two 6 round events. Losing 11 out of 12 die rolls, picking the wrong side of a percentage play a couple too many times and just fizzling out...

Got some games in today against the list that won GP Jersey and the Stoneblade deck just felt like a complete mess. I came close to losing a game where I had to crop rotate away my Tabernacle for an...

Yes, people have tried that. The issue with the prison route is that our usual post ramp is a tad too slow at efficiently establishing chalices and trinispheres, cards which generally require City of...

The fourth Tropical Island is not necessary (I've been running an additional fetchland over it for an additional shuffle effect forever now and can't recall an instance where it hurt me), the third...

You don't Stifle the Dark Depths trigger, you Stifle the copy ability of Thespian Stage, which buys another turn. You can however Wasteland the 0 counter Thespian-Depths once the trigger is on the...

Since the list is so much in flux right now, I might as well chime in with what I've currently been testing, mostly because my conclusions seem to differ from a lot of what has been going on in this...

Wouldn't just casting a Primeval Titan get the job done here as well, instead of all the Titania, Glacial Chasm and Treasure Cruise nonsense? I don't see how this sells the card significantly better...

The main issue I see with Titania in our shell is that in spots where I can resolve her, I'd almost always prefer a Titan or an Oracle. I haven't even properly adjusted to the recent drastic changes...

What possible rationale could you have for Brainstorming on their EoT? What are you trying to accomplish with this line? You're not doing any relevant card selection with that, nor do you generally...

Pulled out my RUG bonfire list for a side event last weekend because I was too tired to figure out something more appropriate to play and had no idea where my O-Stones are stashed away anyway. 5...

So this is what I played yesterday:

4 Cloudpost
4 Glimmerpost
2 Vesuva
2 Island
1 Forest
4 Misty Rainforest
1 Polluted Delta
3 Tropical Island

According to the standings, Neeley seems to have dropped on 9 and Rock Lee on 12 points. Not a great weekend for them.

What I'm curious is how well Pithing Needles and that Maze of Ith have...

I've had reasonable success with Pithing Needle and the threat of Oblivion Stone against Jund in the past, but the deck seems to have evolved beyond both of these. I still managed to lose to it at...

That's... a very good point. Thanks for reminding me, so there isn't even any other line to take in that spot, nevermind then.

I don't think the deck is positioned poorly right now. Jund seems to have been a shortlived hype and the numbers being played these days are a lot more reasonable. Their discard suite is annoying to...
