I used to want top back but now do we really want Top with cards like Citadel // Mystic Forge etc.

Just picked up the last Thoughtseize! Plus mismatching Chokes, blue players deserve no less.
Top 4'd a local legacy 1k with Maverick on the weekend.

Rogue to kill TNN, as that also kills bitterblossom tokens ;3.
This card and Wren seems insane.
You get to bring Trophy in vs more decks than decay and have it be better. Like lands, sneak, depths, reanimator, 4c loam, etc. There's trade offs with decay in the sense that if you go trophy target...
Won a 5 round legacy 1k here in Vancouver. This was my list.

I don't think punishing is bad or anything I just like the land base of this one better not having to run Groves, also I'm much more of a fan of black's sideboard cards than red's (except pyroblast...
Warning am tired and didn't take notes, the following may include mistakes! Especially the sideboarding parts!!
Top 16'd (13th) a 6 round event here for $80 credit using this list:

I love Thalia HC but my main problem with it is you usually only have the slots to play like 1 or 2, but the card is really good turn 2 and meh later. This makes you want to play more copies, cutting...
I know you're being rhetorical but I got bored and curious which ones I could think of-
Sower
Diminishing Returns
Misthollow Griffin
Slithermuse
Mindbreak Trap

I'm surprised we didn't get an eldrazi tribal bloodmoon in Oath that turned nonbasics into wastes Kappa.
The 4th Knight would really help against lands, ever since they cut black (for decay) they really struggle with you having an active knight. If there is a ton of True Name in your meta coming from...
In general I'd prefer to lead with Hymn. If you lead with Thoughtseize you have to make a decision of what to take without knowing what the Hymn is going to take, it adds a random chance for your...
Finally got into MTGO and played a kinda budget list, 5-0'd my first time playing beating UR Delver x2, Miracles, ANT, Turbo Depths! (Do I crack the chests???)

3 Savannah

Brainstorm is the best card in the format by a mile, god forbid theres a card like chalice to help fight those decks. Nothing is stopping you from playing a 2nd land into a 2 drop or 3rd land into a...
Played in a 6 round Legacy Classic here in Beautiful British Columbia at Magic Stronghold Games, bringing back some of my juicy tech. I present-
Maverick 2. Return of the Maindeck Thoughtseize....
You're right 1GW for a knight is unthinkable
Knight of Autumn is nuts. RIP pridemage? :(
Giving them a land as they resolve their Jace is a lot better option than holding abrupt decay and letting them Jace more each time and get further behind, this is a 2 mana instant speed answer to...
As good as unearthing a value creature is, in practice the vast majority of the time I have cast reanimate its on an opponents creature
Id be down to play more hymns and maybe some unearths but Id...
I like reanimate more than unearth, the upside of taking a big thing from your op more than makes up the lifeloss, and you can still reanimate your value dudes.
Zenith is interesting. At 3 mana...
Played this UB control deck quite a few times at my local, getting quite a lot of 3-1's back when DRS was legal and playing tombstalker/TNN's until they printed Spellseeker. I jammed 4 of that in...
