I was just going to respond with the word "Wasteland" but that would be a waste of a post. However, I hope you keep that in mind while I type the rest of this out. These lands produce colorless,...

Metalwalker, I think you're approaching the problem of beating Merfolk in entirely in the wrong way. I like some of what your board is doing but the Peacekeeper plan is not supplemented by Dark...
I know you love Gigapede, I'm pretty fond of it as well, but why would you elect to play such a narrow card just becuase its uncounterable? Elspeth is better in the mirror and while it can be...
The number of cards off Landstill this is, is like 9. this deck has lands as the win condition + Standstill. It's Landstill.
Who doesn't play Crucible in UWx? I believe those people are going about it incorrectly.
Also, Repeal is trash, you could make the same argument for Repeal in any instance buy just say "Remand"...
The night before we cut the dragon, we were concerned about the speed of the environment and didn't want the liability that Dragon can sometimes present, the more stable mana base was excellent and...
Good is a relative term that you did not qualify. The deck had two losses in the 9 rounds - the mud deck that came in second and Dredge. Do those both qualify as good decks for you? Just post a reply...
Guys, this thread is a mess.
I'm glad to see you're cutting Standstill for creatures and no one can see where Crucible is good.
It's hard to post any kind of response that isn't very akin to...

It is reasonable to be skeptical of the new Elspeth, I was intitally very skeptical of her, but the more I think on the topic the more I like her. The question isn't, is she good...
I mostly lurk. I posted my list not too long ago, I also have this little report. But I don't really like getting into too many discussions with people I don't know on-line.
We can discuss the...
I've played against it, the hands without Survival are unremarkable and the hands with Surivval are often able to be Trapped or Extirpated. Humility is pretty good here. The deck is designed to give...
I'm aware that you normally cannot bounce a Progenitus with Karakas. Sometimes though, even Progenitus gets mud in his face.
I added numbers to clarify which questions I'm answering
1. I underestimated the number of people that would bring combo decks. Had I assessed it properly there would be one Ethersworn Cannonist...
I finished 41st with Landsstill. going 10-2-4 (2 Unintentional Draws)
Day one I went 6-0-3
Day two I went 4-2-1
I have pretty good notes and intend to write a report, but until then; this was...
I wanted to think of a witty way to say "Firespout is almost never Wrath of God." But I decided to settle for this so that way no one would really be able to misinterpret what I'm saying.
I wish I...
For those of you that plan on playing this at the Grand Prix I have the following question: Can you play fast enough to win matches with this deck?
I know that I can, I've been piloting the deck...
Eternal Dragon counts as a land when you're building the list so at 24 lands he is actually one land above the three most recently posted lists. 24 is reall a fine number.
Also, for the mana base...
This is a bit of a break from what everyone has been discussing in the last few posts, but I wanted to share my list of Landstill that I have been doing very well with recently:

I normally lurk.
Why is this discussion of Eternal Garden happening in the Landstill thread?
I generally like Slaughter Pact over any instant that I would be paying mana for because its...
I would like to how how well Ajani Vengeant is really doing in builds. What match-ups does it improve? We've all ready established that just about any planeswalker is amazing against control, but he...
Tru dat.
Also, FoF cannot be burned or attacked.
And I think that represents a fundamental difference in the philosophy of people who are playing this deck. There are some people that want to...
Personally, it was a great feeling for me to block a Progenitus with a soldier token [and kill it, obviously.]
I've noticed a large number of the posts with lists have started using 2 Elspeths, I just recently stopped using two and cut back to one. I seldom want to see her in an opening hand, and never want...
