In my previous post I say how the much up felt to me based on my games, but while thinking about it at work today I thought it really is a crap position to be in.

I agree. I think our altered...

You just have to hope to dodge it or be able to cast decay off your one forest and bayou that's about to get wastelanded. There's not much to discuss about it IMO, unless I'm missing something, maybe...

I play a few matches against my friend who is new to eldrazi (aren't they all at this point?) and it seemed ok.

I played very combo piece heavy deck (many 4 ofs of the combo specific elves) with a...

In all tournaments we should follow our brains, but sometimes we follow our heart.

I have definitely cast NO for a beta giant spider.

I love Japanese lists. So much insanity.

Their top 64 is ridiculous http://www.sanc.jp/bmo03/legacy/17.html

It's not about becoming reactive against miracles, it's that they have so many trumps to your most powerful and cost intensive spells that it becomes extremely risky to cast them. The only reactive...

Yeah, I've been playing against it a lot lately. What's the corresponding thread on here? I've found the grixis midrange matchup to be close but fine, but haven't played much against delver.

In...

He lived the dream! The one thing I have yet to do is hard cast operation hydra. Thanks for the videos :smile:

This was always the most compelling way to look at it for me. If you want something in between, where you can't quite GSZ for hoof but need to try and take the initiative rather than wait, look to...

I just tried putting the translated names into ebay and a bunch of results came up.

Thanks for the explanation Julian, I rarely run into the deck on mtgo and no one plays it locally so I don't have much experience in the matchup. From just reading lists turn-2 was the number I...

Good job cutting the savannah and taiga, that's a start (not sure if I'm too late for that joke). I've tried having 4 decays in the board for a little while to combat containment priest, didn't...

FWIW, I consider myself an average player and did the numbers on my mtgo matches a little while ago. Including my learning curve and playing during treasure cruise-forked bolt-fast combo mtgo hell,...

:cool: Running good!

What happened here? What do you do on the draw? With you onn the play, they can keep an EtW hand and then you can T3 hoof em for a billion but I have no idea how you won, as well as have it be 2-0...

DnT is fine but what I was referring to in my original post was more an in general thing. I've just played against a lot of UWR pyro stoneblade or DTT - UWR control decks online (prior to bannings)....

I agree, there are plenty of options and to me the times we board in answers are pretty clear, which is when those cards already do something i.e. for SFM, cage or white hatebears. Usually like 2...

Forked bolt and young pyro hate isn't fun to play against :) That's all. Gets a bit rough round in and round out. I've stopped my mtgo practice sessions since containment priest has also constantly...

That is exactly what they said?

This was another quirk of the list interesting to me. It has never occurred to me to touch the sacred quirion ranger numbers. Is there a well thought out reason to slaughtering this sacred cow? My...

Oh boy! Elves list from top8, won't say which place just in case of spoilers :)

Creatures (30)

2 Craterhoof Behemoth
4 Deathrite Shaman
1 Elvish Mystic
4 Elvish Visionary
1 Fyndhorn Elves...

Twitch detected some songs on the VOD and muted it :(

I want to dedicate a single sideboard slot to U/R delver since I play against it a lot locally. The matchup feels pretty close but since I play against it so much I really want an extra card to help...

Matchup sucks since we can't really touch lands. Tabernacle, glacial chasm stalls enough for the 20/20 flying idiot. Either lose or play some hate in your local meta. An ok plan is aggressive NO-pro...

I think at that point it's too late to try and control them since they've seen too many cards. Just gotta plan to rip NO or cradle to go for the hoof win. I think it's better to let them return...
