    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I guess that's true. I wasn't trying to outright dismiss your idea, I was just trying to give some examples of in game events that make 12 lands worse than, say, the standard 14 most people use right...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    In response to this whole theory crafting deal,

    If you think you're on to something in theory, just actually try it out in practice against a real opponent. Sure your sample size is going to be...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    At least from my experience UWR has the same weaknesses as RUG, which is their reliance on delver to kill you before you can overcome their removal. Stuff like stoneforge or lavamancer are annoying,...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Yeah, I haven't played in a legacy open in the past year, so I wanna school some fools with a bunch of small green dudes. Plus I'm hoping to get on camera at some point so people can see how sweet a...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I'll be in DC and playing Elves, 100% for sure. Plus I have three byes from PWP (thanks PTQ win) so I'm hoping for big things.

    Although SCG Cleveland is coming up this weekend, so I'm worrying...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Dude, PendelSteven, you really need to pay attention to what evidence you're using to support your claims. You said there were only 3 copies of daze and 0 spell pierce in the top 16 of the SCG open...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I definitely agree with you on this one. The deck has so much power along with a wide range of play that I haven't really needed any special sideboard cards or tutor targets to win matches. Other...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Eldamari giving your things shroud seems like a nonbo to me. It means that all of your symbiotes and your rangers can't untap anything except arbor for value. Considering that I've had many games in...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    What would you want that card against? Against aggro you are already easily favored, almost every control deck in the format runs STP or some other way to keep it in check, and against combo it does...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I'm not scared of a turn 2 glimpse, the times when it will kill you turn 2 are too rare for me to worry about it. Also, on turn 3, I am infinitely more scared of a NO then glimpse. Undisrupted boards...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Yeah the other Elves deck was tuned, was pretty close to my list except he only had 3 cradles while I'm playing the full 4. Honestly the mirror feels like a coin flip, where you just don't have a...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Had another good tournament today, went 5-0 at my local monthly legacy event. I played pretty much the same list that I posted a while back. I'm wondering when other people are going to figure out...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Right now my mana base is 9 fetches, 2 forest, 2 bayou, 1 savannah, 1 arbor, 4 cradle. I used to run a 2-2 split of cradle and rotation, but with the new rules change I've moved to the full 4...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    For me, the desicion between dork or discard is pretty situational for combo matchups, but it's easy to hash out. It comes down to weather your opponent can go off next turn or if your plan is teeg...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    TIL stands for today I learned.

    Also on the subject of cavern, sure you can name elf and play out one uncounterable creature per turn. But that means you have to cut down on fetches or duals or...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    The second arbor is also really good when you side in the 4th natural order and progenitus. Makes it easier to EOT fetch for arbor then NO since you can do it twice in a game.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I'm personally a fan of ooze and/or decay. The games you lose are never to goyf or mongoose, it's always to delver of secrets. The other creatures get blanked very easily and give you a lot of time...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Here's the list that I played this weekend for the NELC at Jupiter Games. There was only 59 players this month, so a nice easy 6 rounds of swiss, but I got paired down in the 5th round so I still had...
