Much more relevant than Petal+Emrakul is Petal+Pierce/Fluster as additional protection
As for how Big Gris will be in the deck, all my testing has shown him to be far far better than Progenitus....

Playing TES at my locals against scrubs
Storm 10? What's That Mean?
High Tide
No wait, you can fizzle!
(Pro Tip: no, you can't)
The problem is, they don't just mean PrimeTime. Every titan except Frost is huge games if it resolves most of the time. Even if an aggressive deck immediately removes the titan, Inferno probably 2...
This situation came up a few weeks ago and I was just wondering how it should have been handled. Basically, a storm player cast tendrils for lethal on his opponent but only had 3B in pool instead of...
Honestly, the new red PW would be half decent if his second 2 abilities at all lined up with his first one. After all, if I loam back 3 lands, its a pretty good chance that his +1 ability is just a...
Seems weak? Passing the turn with doomsday is super sketchy and its the only way you can miracle time walk
The manabase seems like it needs retooled as well. There's not much of a reason not to have some number of Savannah and at least 1 Trop. Yes it gets choke'd but only after you have ideally laid down...
Ill keep almost any reasonable hand with the AdN or LED in it. Reasonable being defined as able to kill by turn 3 at worst. So something like 3 land, rit, adnaus and stuff is reasonable to me. Beyond...
I feel like its more of a curve, with some decks having much more diminishing returns than others. For example, playing burn as a mildly skilled played and a pro is going to have a small impact where...
The problem is that in decks running bolt, fireblast and price, sometimes you go so loww before the tendrils that they just kill you.
And personally Ive been boarding in an IGG vs burn but thats...
Im thinking I've just been getting unlucky when they always have pillar turn two. Although if I see pillar bounce will always come in as I don't like relying on Duress'ing it
Them not having post-board Pillar flips the matchup to be sure. Pillar+Countermagic is just so rough though
How were you boarding? I mean you bring in both bounce and Blast right?
Out of curiosity, how have you guys found the UR Delver deck to be in testing? Personally it has been abysmal for me. Obviously there is a ton of variation in the lists but the average list with...
Boarded like that everytime against them and it worked perfectly. Granted I probably had a bit of luck but the real thing you need to do is just mull appropriately. If your hand doesn't have a chance...
Bryant, I know we talked at the GP about Infest and such, but is it really necessary? It may very well be but at the GP I played 6 Maverick players and only ever failed to get a kill before hatebears...
Did the same thing. went 7-2 day one and then 1-3 day two. It was a bummer but the deck was still awesome and it was great just thrashing Maverick players
Ill be there with 7-10 people from the thumb of Michigan.
Pretty psyched to roll out TES at a big tourney, so many more people to Grapeshot
Isn't chrome mox just better against them though? Turn one lay land and lay out a chrome mox and you have an undazeable unwasteable mana source
Blood Moon + Artifact Destruction wrecks U/W Tron.
I assume by now many of you have heard about the mass of suspensions starting 2/20/12 which includes Calosso and Edgar Flores and like 50 more people. Wizards has as of now said nothing yet but I...
Other than the fact that 2 Rite is RRRR, that seems correct. From watching the video everything seems legit. Which is why videos will always be better than written stuffs.
Sweet report and good job. Question though, in match 1 game 2, why didn't you go for the safe IGG win? Was it just for the chance to showboat into Grapeshot, or just to play around if he ripped a...
Aegis of Honor. Now go beat burn. In Seriousness though, as much as the legacy community (In my experience) likes to talk trash about burn being easy to play or just bad, the deck does what all...
Bloom is terrible but you definitely need to find room for Grim Monolith. I played a very similar mono-red list for a long time and the deck has several turns where it just sits and can't do much and...
