    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Wow, it's a 3/1? I thought it was a 2/1. That's interesting. I could definitely see it take some slots away from Serra Avenger. Perhaps I just like how aggressive it is.

    yes, I saw this in a recent SCG deck. Pretty cool tech.

    Armageddon works against control but is not as versatile as it doesn't remove other permanents. Cataclysm can even the battlefield (pun not in tended) by taking out multiple Angel tokens, a slew of...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Might be cool in Deadguy's Ale, but doesn't really fit in Death and Taxes. It will require too much from our mana base and doesn't disrupt the opponent enough.

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I would go 3 in the main anyway. Mirran Crusader with Double Strike is just a beast. I don't think I'd go with 4 though. You'd just get flooded. A 3 drop is like a turn 5 at best because of Rishadan...

    Thalia all day.

    The only time Thalia is bad is against a green beat down deck like Mavericks or Vial Goblins. I think the Spirit is alright. She's mainly an anti-blue card, but I think Thalia is...

    Blue decks make up more than half of the metagame.

    Godsend is much worse than having protection from creatures. Creatures with abilities can still affect the equipped creature can still target...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Well, it's not a tier one deck, so I think there is always room for improvements. I'm not saying I'm an expert in the deck either. I'm just trying to get you to weigh in the advantages and...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    In Death and Taxes, a 3 drop is a big investment, so they better have a big impact on the board when they come down. Other notable 3 drops in D&T include Mangara of Corondor, Flickerwisp, Brimaz,...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Thank you for the clarification. That was what I inferred as well. If that is the case, then I can confidently say that I never use Mangara in that manner (perhaps this is wrong). I tend to use...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Please clarify. I'm confused about your instructions. So should I use it as single target removal or shouldn't?

    My deck only runs 2x Mangara, but I'm getting more and more tempted it switch it to...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Please elaborate on "dismantle". I see Wastelands will jump at hitting the Ports, but if you are Wasting them out, I think they'd hesitate to Waste you back. Revoker, is still weak in the match up,...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Shaman is a sitting duck with Revoker on the table. Thalia attacks in and he's virtually useless. Once you land equipment, Revoker can join in on the fun. He still swings for 2 and that's quite a lot...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Mangara activates turn 4 if you are fast. Do you wait for Karakas? Do you wait for Vial? He just needs too many pieces to work efficiently. Am I greedy with my Mangara? I'm not sure.

    Saving mana...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I would hesitate to take out Revoker. Revoker shuts down Shaman if they remove RIP and shuts down the Planeswalkers which are an alternative win con. They are also extra bodies, which I would...
