I'm glad that The Source is still here and I'm glad that I'm not banned! Even though I mostly just lurk now I'm here pretty frequently. I was worried yesterday.
Thanks for resolving the issue.

Thanks for resolving the issue.
Thank you both for the feedback!
Winter Orb: Excellent point that other Delver decks can consider running this card in their sideboards; casting it is likely going to hurt us both about equally,...
I've been playing with this deck and really enjoy it. I want to make the red splash work to make the Delvers stronger and to get access to Pyroblast in the board. How does this list look? I will...
I know that it's not the same, but I built an EDH deck to satisfy that drive for me. It's a cross between a Legacy Jund deck, a Modern version, a standard version, and individual cards that are no...
Updated list! Small changes to the removal, disruption, and creature suites aimed at making the deck more interactive.
Cards that are in the list at the moment that may not stay there:...
This deck looks awesome. I really like EDH decks that echo my favorite decks from formats or ages that are now gone. I loved Legacy Aggro Loam, and this gets to play not just the best cards from...
Thanks for the feedback! I'm not sure about the Duel Commander metagame, to be honest. I found a few friends locally that play EDH and thought it'd be fun to play against them.
Chainer's Edict:...
I like to say that I play Legacy competatively and EDH for fun. That worked very well when there was a local Legacy scene, but hasn't worked for me since I moved to a place without Legacy. I'm...
The Aluren history/summary on this and the last page is excellent. I played around with Recruiter-less Aluren a year ago, but there was very little interest in the deck at all back then, and...
My "un-Punishing Jund" list is four cards off of that maindeck. I run -1 Grim Lavamancer, -1 Life from the Loam, -1 Phyrexian Arena, -1 Maelstrom Pulse, +1 Lightning Bolt, +1 Abrupt Decay, +1...
Collective Brutality's biggest appeal to me is that it's useful at multiple points of the game as both proactive disruption and reactive removal. I don't think you necessarily need to get two modes...
Pack Rat is a great idea. You could also mix up the LLanowar Elves and Elves of Deep Shadow to help with the manabase if Llanowar Wastes are a bit expensive for the budget; Jungle Hollow is the best...
This might be too late-sorry if so. I love the look of this list. I understand the desire to build something strong but straightforward for a new player. Nic Fit is not a starting point for a new...
----------The Combo Matchup----------
I've been debating running Inquisition of Kozilek over Hymn to Tourach in the maindeck. Hymn is a more brutal card, but IoK increases your number of turn one...
Glissa, the Traitor seems better than this. She costs GGB instead of G, but is basically equivalent to the Ooze plus Rancor or Jitte or Sword of Fire and Ice. I'll take the cheaper, single-card...
If you have the Badlands, Bayous, and a Taiga, there are a variety of Grove-less builds of Jund you can play until you acquire the Grove of the Burnwillows. I started by playing un-Punishing lists...
Sudden Shock is an incredible piece of removal. It's extremely potent against Infect; as noted, they can actually counter Abrupt Decay with Vines of Vastwood and Lightning Bolt with Vines and...
Liliana of the Veil and Faithless Looting make some of these black and red Madness cards tempting for Legacy and Modern. Asylum Visitor seems really close to playable, even with the Hellbent clause. ...
That list looks awesome. I wish Chains weren't $300+ each.
Here's an open-ended question relevant to both the Punishing and Un-Punishing builds: What is the ideal split between Thoughtseize,...
Correct me if I am wrong, but based on Chains' oracle text, the clues just say "2: Discard a card, draw a card" no matter when you sacrifice them.
I like this list as well. I find myself boarding in Garruk Relentless in every non-combo matchup. Assembling a board of (two or more of) Sylvan Library, Liliana, and Garruk is nearly impossible for...
Thanks for the post. I'll advertise it at our local Legacy this Thursday and see if we can get a car full of people to drive over.
(trimmed for ease of reading)
I like the look of this list. A couple of things jump out at me (having played sdematt's Huntmaster build and currently playing a Fires-less Bloodbraid list):
...
There's two ways to interpret the Top 100 and Top 8 results from the two Legacy GPs: incredible diversity or incredible lack of diversity. I don't think it's unreasonable to acknowledge these two...
GP Columbus:
Of the 100 decks that made day two, Grixis Delver had the most showings, at 16. There were a total of 22 different decks. Control, aggro-control, aggro-combo, aggro-prison (or...
