I'm interested as to why you're running Scour from Existence instead of Karn Liberated. Sorcerous Spyglass over Pithing Needle seems a little sketchy as well.

Hey guys, I made a discord server for anything related to decks playing the 12-post manabase, and that also includes this deck! (obviously!) Feel free to join and we can ask on the fly about deck...
Wastes still taps for colorless mana through Blood Moon, which is important for being able to cast Spatial Contortion post-board.
I don't think you're using your imagination enough. In most games where Ensnaring Bridge is putting the game in a standstill, the 12-post player will eventually assemble the infinite turns combo with...
@Rock Lee any new builds that you have been testing at the moment? What are some of your post-ban UG lists looking like? How do we play against combo decks without Sensei Top?
I mostly agree with this, I think the disparity in power between going first and going second is too great for Stifle and I always considered trickbind to be the better of the two in this deck. I do...
I can't help but think that most of the reasoning for the use of Stifle in these matchups doesn't hold much water:
ANT/TES: What kind of storm player isn't going to rip up your hand with discard...
Will UG post as we knew it before the ban ever be good again, or are we relegated to playing more aggressive or combotastic playstyles going forward?
How does UG 12-post win vs aggro loam? That's a matchup I always have trouble with. The angles of attack are too numerous, with chalice blanking wasteland protection, wasteland recursion out the...
Unfortunately Tony Murata lost 0-2 vs Big Red, possibly the worst matchup for 12-post in the entire format. Such a shame.
How are you guys playing against the new builds of the lands deck that have 4 mainboard Ghost Quarter now? I've been easily beating lands in the past when the only card to worry about was wasteland...
Very interesting list, how are you using walking ballista in general? When are you casting it?
Also, this is more of a question about 12-post in general but how are you guys dealing with...
You're missing the point. The point is that you don't need permanent answers. With the consistency and acceleration tools that are available to the deck (Show and Tell, Brainstorm, even Repeal...
The way I think of UG post is with more of a "jack of all trades master of none" sort of deal. Instead of having polarizing matchups with certain archetypes, it aims to equalize them as much as...
Well I don't think playing no permanents is necessarily the way to go. Candelabras aren't even that bad if you hold off on casting them (a very common situation vs abrupt decay) so bouncing them...
I started screwing around with the idea of having some Miracle boardwipe with the UG version in the form of Devastation Tide earlier. What I found was that this card used to be a 4-of in some old...
There was once a time where ponder was played back when Treasure Cruise was legal but nothing matches the repeatable power of sensei's divining top. The argument you're making with "xxx is a great...
Do you have a list for the Trinket Mage version?
Also, what role does Dismember serve in this deck?
I think you need to read his comment again
Yeah Candelabra of Tawnos is a very budget friendly card :p
I'm always confused as to how to use Surgical Extraction against storm. What exactly is my goal when casting this card vs. that...
That is indeed the case.
Aside from All is Dust there is nothing we would want to fetch with this card that Living Wish doesn't already get.
In what scenarios would you tutor for Mox Diamond with Trinket Mage?
Also do you have problems resolving Ugin against blue decks?
Yes there is. You pretty much described it. Upkeep trigger goes on the stack, in response crop rotate a separate land into Vesuva copying Chasm, let the upkeep trigger resolve and choose not to pay...
I agree with Zotmaster and Mockingjay on Kozilek over Ulamog. I think there are generally other ways to deal with those situations without having to use Ulamog.
Delver: Repeal and Kozilek I feel...
