Really? Well, then. Reading is tech, I guess.
The creature Nissa makes is a 5/5. In its first turn, Nissa can deal 5, then 10, then another 10 for the kill, assuming the opponent is still at 20. It's a three turn clock post-sweeper that doesn't...
Is this decklist for real?

He's running only 11 Turn 1 Green sources in a 61 card deck! That's 77.10% to get a green...
Honestly, I havent done anything other than bounce Visionary or bounce other guys to make mana with it in a long time. I've barely played any non-combo matches with Elves since the beginning of the...
Right, but those are far less common and less important than the draw engine thing except in certain matchups. My point was that the things Voldimore mentioned are not relevant reasons to not run a...
You realize Symbiote is a non-elf with a 2-mana ability, right? And that's only if Visionary is in play. Without its best friend, it really doesn't do much. WRP has a 3-mana ability that could...
Has anyone tried Duskwatch Recruiter yet? Seems pretty insane for the grindy plan. It's like running both parts of the best friends team in one card, kind of. I don't think I can run it main in my...
It's actually not ANT. The combo decks I've played here lately are Reanimator, All Spells, Omnitell, and Infect. The meta is very small so I run into them a LOT.
Julian23, I definitely agree...
I've been on a tear lately in our locals going 4-0, 2-2, 4-0, and now 3-1 for three first place finishes with some stock NO lists, except I once played Taiga and Ruric + Slaughter Games to deal with...
I boarded in that package but I think I removed some Glimpses. Boarding out so many creatures makes it kind of bad. Is symbiote fogging not relevant in the matchup?
How do you board against infect?
Played against it for the first time last night. I had a really hard time, losing after seizing a glistener, decaying an agent, and pithing on nexus. I had an...
Was Prague Eternal's top 8 posted anywhere?
What do you guys think about the Grixis Delver (3-4 stifle) matchup? I've never played it, but I assume it's at least as hard as RUG Delver, and much worse postboard. Is it as tough as I think it is?
IMarques, i agree the Iona plan seems unlikely to be consistent, but the chalice plan as well as choke+teeg+safekeeper in conjuction might be good enough. This is definitely a weird list and it...
IMarques, neither chord nor Entity are as narrow as you think. Chord rarely costs more than two land taps in this deck (or any deck designed to support it) and it is usually a toolbox card like...
I have been thinking about how mediocre Glimpse has been for me recently. I haven't won any combo races with the card in a while, and I'm boarding out several copies against many decks anyway. I...
This must be a forum record. Tasigur went from instantly dismissed to actually ok in like 3 pages.
Well yeah Slaughter Games doesn't single-handedly solve everything. I don't think I'd board it in against combo without any other disruptive cards, though. It's definitely a solid card against...
Yeah this is exactly what I think. Just had to mention it 'cause Tasigur in Elves looks far out.
Has anyone tested a Taiga main and 2 Slaughter Games in the sideboard? I resolved it game 2 against Miracles last night naming Terminus, then took him to 3 life until I did a dumb misplay, then drew...
The reanimator deck also runs Therapy, so that's not really an option.
So I ran into that "monoblack" reanimator again, this time with 3 extractions in the SB. Won game 2 off a T1 DRS on the play. Lost in game 3 due to running a 2-2 Therapy/Seize split for no reason. If...
Can't unsee...
Btw Is that a NES playmat?
Yes, that's exactly how the deck runs. It's actually very consistent and very fast. It just falls flat on its face sometimes by drawing the wrong cards, and it's very Belcher-ish in that it has to...
