    Re: [Primer/Deck] Burn

    I think it can be either too slow or running out of cards, or both. Burn tends to goldfish on turn 4 very consistently (sometimes turn 3) but that can be a turn too slow against combo, which is why...

    Re: What are your FAVOURITE cards?

    Final Fortune has always been my favourite. Always liked the all-or-nothing feel of it.

    Close second is Adarkar Wastes but that's just because of the John Avon artwork.

    Re: Looking for Legacy tournaments in NY

    I know this is a bit of a long shot but does anyone know of any Legacy events running in NYC on Saturday 4th August? I'm over from the UK and have a spare day free. Just thought I'd ask.
  6. Re: Squandered Resources: Super Budget Super Series 2

    I like the look of the monowhite deck. Seems quite well positioned for the current meta?

    Re: Mono-U Illusions w/ new Illusory Angel

    You beat me to it. I was just about to post this. :smile:

    I really like the idea of this replacing Phantasmal Bear as the deck's 1-drop in my example above. Definitely going to give this deck a...

    Re: [Deck] Burn

    I'm thinking of doing exactly that. Reanimator/Dredge/Storm/Sneak are the big four decks in my meta which worry me.



    I wonder about splashing white via Plateau/Arid Mesa for Disenchant against...

    Re: [Deck] Burn

    Yes, the Sneak/Show matchup is bothering me too as I expect the deck to have significant presence in my local meta over the next few weeks. IMO it's not a favourable match for us at all.

    At the...

    Re: Mono-U Illusions w/ new Illusory Angel

    I'm not saying this as *the* reason to play this deck but one thing I suspect is Sneak Attack is massive in my local meta right now and it seems Sneak/Show has quite a tough game against mono-blue...

    Re: Mono-U Illusions w/ new Illusory Angel

    Reading the Faerie Stompy thread, I see what you mean. Would a Stompy Illusions-type deck work, or am I attempting the impossible?

    ie. closer to my original deck but add Chalices instead of...

    Re: Mono-U Illusions w/ new Illusory Angel

    @djenin: thanks, that's really useful. I like the look of that deck a lot. My playtest options are very limited unfortunately so I might just buy the cards and give it a try. Most of those I don't...

    Thanks for the feedback :) That looks like a pretty good list. Have you playtested it much yet?

    I like your build with Mutavaults but, if I’m honest, they’re not cards I own and I’m not sure my $...

    Mono-U Illusions w/ new Illusory Angel

    My first thread here so hello to you all.

    I'm a returning Magic player and have barely picked up a deck for many years. I've been keeping up to date with Legacy for a few months and have been...
