Dropped at 5-2 because I had some medical issues and decided to go home. Deck was awesome. It would need someone who has more time than me to test the deck. A friend of mine played it as well and we...

That is really hard. I don't have any specific rules. What you can't do is keeping a hand without Turn One interaction against Fast-Combo OTD. Even you have like double Thalia, Teeg, Bob and Lands.
...

You are boarding out 2 Mox Diamonds, so having just a bit more early interaction is never really bad. Thoughtseize actually helps you to protect your key spells, like Library, Liliana, Garruk or...

First of all this hand is like a mulligan because of Dryad Arbor, but a solid 6 card hand on the play. You would most likely not keep the hand on the draw.
Playing the Dryad Arbor first and getting...

Glad that you like Chandra, Flamecaller,too :) Right now she is my sideboard card number 15 to 25. Sadly she gets cut more often, but it is really close. You could also just play the third Loam...

Thalia, Guardian of Thraben

It seems like you are really impressed by her. I did play a lot of Maverick back in the days, so of course I am in love with her as well. Considering my Maindeck /SB...

Some of you were a bit concerned about the SneakShow matchup and they are right about this. So I decided to slightly modify the SB with SneakShow in my mind. I tried to make a small SB guide as well....

That looks like one of my possible SB for Prague.
You call it only Delver, but there are different Delver Decks around where you should board differently. Please just post a link (mtgpulse or...

Well, I want sweepers in mainly three matchups: Delver, D&T and Elves.
Against Delver Golgari Charm doesn't kill Delver and Deathrite, Deluge is dangerous against soft counters. Pyroclasm seems...

+1

In Magic it is about card and mana advantage. We can generate card advantage pretty easily. DRS just helps to up the mana advantage spells in the deck. (in addition the card fixes your mana,...

Sounds reasonable.

Time to figure out a manabase for a 61 card build with 27 lands, Dark Depths and Maze.

4 Wastelands
1 Dryad Arbor
1 Maze of Ith
1 Thespian Stage
1 Dark Depths
1...

Game 1 is not that great. If you happen to draw the wrong part of your deck you are about to lose Game 1. Knight of the Reliquary is your way to victory here. She is just bigger than all the Eldrazis...

Three is probably the right number, you are correct ;)

I am not so sure about Tabernacle any more, I can't think of too many matchups where I really want it. First one is against Young Pyromancer,...

That doesn't look so bad. I would cut 2 Mox Diamonds, 1 Loam (as long as you play some Cycle-Lands you should keep at least one in after Sideboarding), 1 Ooze and 1 Maze. Most of the other cards are...

I am pretty sure that one is not enough. I played two last week and was lacking it a lot. In Game 1 I want to gain as much advantage from my graveyard as possible, by adding DD to the Maindeck that...

How to win GP Columbus/Prague

- play 4c-Loam

- play Dark Depths Combo + Maze of Ith in your 75.
- playing the Dark Depths as your 61 card Maindeck could be correct
- play at least three...

It is hard form me to help you with your problems in the Lands Matchup, because I had pretty good results against them. But lets see what others think about the matchup.

Dismember serves a...

I did bring it in against Shardless, sometimes they flood the board with Agents and Strixs, and this is one of the easiest ways to deal with all those creatures. Shardless can also deal with all your...

Exactly. Playing two Leylines is just not the way to go, since you can hardly mulligan into it. Of course you cant mulligan to Bog or Crop Rotation as well, but at least they are better draws in the...

Always lurking here ;)

The list is absolutely correct.
And to be honest, this was the best Sideboard I ever had for a tournament with 4c-Loam -- by far!

Went 9-1 (losing Round 1), Split in...

I would try something completely different. Board out almost all the cards with only green mana symbols.
-1Loam
-2 Green Sun
-2 Library
-1 Ooze
-1 Teeg

and bring in:

2 Thalia

There is no way that you can mulligan for a fast chalice. As allready mentioned, do not overextend into Terminus.But it is definitely possible to play a second threat, especially if you also have a...

You can even think about not playing the Thoughtseizes in that meta. Without Combo you probably won't need them.

Some spicy cards vs burn:
Worship
Solitary Confinement

Congratulation Tom :)
I am really happy that finally someone had success with the deck in the US. You played well and deserved it. It was really funny how Patrick and Cedric thought that you were...

Considering the SB:

Right now I am trying to squeeze in a few cards.
First of all the fourth Abrupt Decay. This is the card I want so see as much as possible against any...
