Don't board out Decree of Justice in the mirror - it's just that good. Take out Spell Snare or don't bring in Meddling Mages (which aren't what they used to be anyway, especially not against the...
I tested it some time ago and never found it worth the slots I gave it (2-3of) because the only matchup where it really shines in is against those 'random aggro' decks (Zoo, Boros etc.) - against...
Just wanted to keep people informed: I played my newest list (2 Ponder, 1 Enlightened Tutor, 3 Counterspell, 3 Factory) at yesterday's Hassloch event and finished with a horrible 3-2-1 record.
I...
Blue Blasts have mainly been added for the Aggro Loam matchup which they improve tremendously. They're basically replacing the Runed Halos which were, after closer consideration, winmore as they were...
I don't like this strategy - playing less powerful cards (and boarding out absolute powerhouses like Humility) only to gain some virtual card-advantage does not seem good to me especially since...
I wouldn't play more than 5 colourless sources so I'd just cut a Mishra's Factory for a Wasteland - I don't really recommend this change though.
One of my last builds, recently piloted to a top8...
Read the thread please - this was brought up on the last page (link). Close to all your other points (Outpost, Stifles etc.) have also been brought up in the past - either in this thread or in the...
For Humility related questions check this thread and especially this post.
The biggest problem with Declaration of Naught is that it's only a replacement for Meddling Mage in the combo or...
To complete on what klaus said:
Naming things with Meddling Mage is highly dependant on the game state so that the following are only rough guidelines. Knowing these and the matchup you're...
The question really should be whether Fracturing Ghust is that much better than Return to Dust to merit a slot in the already rather tight sideboard - Return to Dust has an easier to obtain mana cost...
Grats for the finish - feels good to see the deck do well outside of the hands of the players that usually pilot it to good finishes.
I also thought about making this change - good to know...
Some comments:
I've recently grown to dislike Crucible of Worlds because it's '3 mana: do nothing' at first with the effect not really getting that much more impressive later on: with the current...
I have never built a variant for such a metagame, mainly because it is incredibly rare to find enough combo at a certain event to warrant metagaming for it.
Here're some thoughts though (taking this...
You, Sir, should better listen more often to me - Landstill was just the perfect choice for the tournament: three people played the deck and all of them top8ed. The third Landstill player in the top8...
I'd love to play Runed Halo main, especially since close to no-one has access to enchantment removal preboard turning it into a spot removal + Extirpate which is pretty strong, especially against all...
My list is currently heavily fluctuating so that I haven't made up my mind about any boarding plans concerning it yet.
I assume for the following that you're using the 24 lands (3 Factory) + 3 DoJ...
If the NQG lists play Pithing Needle, Krosan Grip, Counterbalance or Stifle, Oblivion Stone is strictly inferior to Wrath of God.
Also, there's a higher probability of Oblivion Stone getting hit by...
No, this hasn't been decided - there is generally no consent about Landstill lists or whatsoever, especially Cunning Wish isn't universally adopted.
I decided to play it in the first place because...
3 Runed Halos, 3 Extirpates in the board.
Extirpates are just great for your bad matchups while still being rather versatile (Control Matchup, Combo Matchup, NQG etc.).
Runed Halo is a current test...
If on the other hand, you could play an option that is a little worse in your bad matchups but raises near to all other matchup percentages by a decent amount postboard (especially those matchup...
Grats for the finish.
How was he? I'm still very sceptical of adding him, especially if you're cutting a DoJ for him... Decree is just one of your finest tools in so many matchups.
I've...
I'd also replace one Island with a singleton Scrubland to be able to fetch a black source via Eternal Dragon.
This is my current manabase:
// Lands (25)
4 Flooded Strand
2 Polluted...
I actually don't know who first came up with the idea of Cunning Wish in Landstill, but konsultant and we Germans (Marius+me) were pretty close - irrelevant to the discussion though. It's also sad...
This is actually not relevant at all because Ichorid will always slow roll against you going for the DDD-route (Draw, Discard, Dredge) as it can't afford to give you multiple Time-Walks if you happen...
The strongest point of Wheel of Sun and Moon is that it makes the Aggro Loam matchup (something like the worst matchup you can face) better because it stops their Card Advantage engine as well as...
