    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    If you look at my Top 2/4 lists, I've had it in my sideboard in all iterations and it was convincingly powerful. I even made mention of that in the short write-ups. (EDIT: Post 1264 for reference.)

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    Doesn't Dread of Night solve the issues with most of those cards above and provide an excellent static shutdown card against Death and Taxes - one of the deck's worst potential match-ups? Because...

    He probably brought them in to combat a non-existent Loam strategy.

    Yeah Tabernacle has been shit for me lately, too.

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I used Root Maze out of the board against Miracles and mid-range and it was incredibly strong. I have no idea if anyone else tried it, but it was powerful when I used it and pissed people off. I...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I just disagree on the Tabernacle sentiment. I think people are also masking their trust in the card and focusing on its negatives (which are few and far between, especially with Urborg) in large...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    Thanks again, Negator.

    The tournament had 39 players (partly lower due to the GP and impending storms), so it was six rounds of action with a very healthy mix of Legacy's best decks. The...

    Split the Finals of the Legacy 2K in Elmira and picked up a The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale. Details to follow.

    I'm going to be bringing the updated list to Mythic Games' Monthly 2K tomorrow. I'm still tweaking some things, but anticipate a report and additional information to come.

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    Played in the local yesterday - four rounds and I split in the finals with a 3-0-1 overall record. Here's what I faced:

    R1: vs NO BUG [W: 2-1]
    R2: vs UB Tezzerator [W: 2-1]
    R3: vs Deathblade [W:...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I actually disagree with this sentiment. I don't believe Cabal Therapy is the best discard spell - at least not in this deck. Since this deck predicates itself on making a fast token and clocking...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I typically bring it in against fetch-heavy decks (i.e. U/R Delver, Grixis, etc.,) Miracles, Lands, Storm, fast combo and more. Against decks with a higher density of fetches and artifacts it becomes...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I actually cut Shizo and Garden from the main. I'm still on the fence with those two utility lands. They're fine choices, don't get me wrong, but space is tight and I'm working to strengthen the...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    It has a bit more application than that, too. Right now TES is running their win conditions out of the sideboard. If you resolve it taking Burning Wish, it can potentially steal the game on the spot....

    Below is the list I'm currently testing. It's been surprisingly good with the added boost of speed with Dark Ritual. Aether Snap has been a boss, surprising opponents with not only another avenue in...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    I've got to wonder if it's reliable against Lands and some sort of mirror situation. I think it's perfectly viable. If you can resolve the ability to make a 20/20 and have the ability to stretch the...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    That's exactly right. I felt that in situations where sacrificial effects would be damaging, Khalni Garden as opposed to Dryad Arbor doesn't leave play. So having that was nice. The problem is the...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    So, I picked up an interest in this deck recently. I've been looking at various options out of the board, and one of the things that at this point is glaringly obvious is the deck's susceptibility to...
