Very interesting list. I have been willing to go mono U for a while but never settled on a list that I liked. In my attempts however I always liked Stifle, did you have a chance to test it ?
Hi guys,
Summertime makes playtesting not so easy (gotta enjoy the sun and those pesky friends keeping you away from Magic ! Damn !). Here is what I want to test next time I can:
1 Bojuka Bog...
Hi k_omega,
Thanks a lot for this extensive post. I am too in the process of brewing a UG list post Top. I usually played S&T + Titan but I want to try something different.
Here's what I've...
Do you mean Alhammarret, High Arbiter?
Has anyone tested Dig through Time a little more? As every one knows, the card is insane and I have been trying to incorporate it in the deck. Here's my latest list:
4 Cloudpost
4 Glimmerpost
3...
With all those planewlakers around here I think a 1-off Contagion Engine could be funny. Scaling up PWs + killing annoying creatures (albeit slowly) seems worth testing...
I have been running this configuration of creatures for a long time (since way before TC release) and I have found it to be enough. There are numerous winning lists with 7-8 (+Ulamog) creatures...
...
I am actually doing the same: maindecking the FOW and am happy with it. As you said, FOWing the 1st threat is really strong, especially the 1st game.
Concerning S&T, I don't know for you guys but I...
I am still running 2 Moment's Peace in my SB to help against Elves. Sure Deathrite is still a pain but Chasm + Counters + Moment can hold them for a while until you stabilize. Also I don't know for...
I don't know about the rest of the meta as I haven't test it yet but the matchup against the UR Delver deck with Treasure Cruise is, to my own surprise, very winnable. I am using a list very similar...
I do quite the same except I am already maindecking Chasm. I go: -4 Repeal, -2 Expedition Map, -2 Candelabra, -3 Ponder or (-1 Ponder, -2 Pithing Needle) if I see/suspect a Viridian Shaman, +4 FOW,...
Why running Chain of Vapor against Snap? It also allows you to accelerate. Are the 2 untapped lands required too late against elves? Personaly in this matchup I don't like bounce spells anyway, I...
Just made top 4 to GPT with a classical UG list:
4 Tropical Island
4 Misty Rainforest
3 Island
4 Cloudpost
4 Glimmerpost
2 Vesuva
1 Eye of Ugin
Unlike Oracle of Mul Daya, it doesn't allow you to play an additional land... That + the double G + Abrupt Decay makes it worthless in my opinion.
What about Mox Diamond for the UGx versions? I know Rock Lee presented a list with it once... I'm guessing that without Trinkets now it is not worth it but the mana acceleration + fixing could help...
Thanks for the reply Davek!
In fact I was mentioning that card for S&T 5 and 6 in the SB (I always play 4 S&T maindeck). But you are probably right, that thing seems overcosted. I will test it...
That might be a crazy idea but I want to test 2 Shifty Doppelganger in the SB.
Against D&T it is not taxed by Thalia and they regularly side out StP against us. I am aware that against removal it is...
I am trying another approach by maindecking 2 Swan Song and adding the 4th Show and Tell for the 2 Trinket Mage and a Vesuva. I am considering lowering the Vesuva down to 2 in order to add a 3rd...
Interesting that you mentioned that because I was considering bringing Leylines in the side and then moving the fourth Show And Tell in the main.
As for up-ing (is that correct english???) the...
Hi all!
I am currently running a list close to Davek's one. The differences are -1 Oracle of Mul Daya, -1 Trinket Mage, -1 Green Sun's Zenith -3 Brainstorm +2 Expedition Map +2 Oblivion Stone +1...
Has Chancellor of the Annex been tested in the spot of Iona, Shield of Emeria?
Sure this is not an "I win" card against OmniTell but I think it could be very useful in a variety of matchups and...
Go Rock Lee!
I see what you mean now... It makes sense! I can't wait to have the results of your testing.
Also I have a question about he future of the deck: would Turbo Eldrazi still be a valid deck if Show...
This may sound stupid but why would you need Urborg here?
