In an opening 7 card hand, 1.98 of those cards will be blue on average. That number is 2.57 with 22 blue cards. I don't know if that means much, but alls I knows is... You start to get pretty...
Wow, awesome! Seems like it could be in established by now. Shardless BUG people, go there!
I agree with what Arsenal said about Shardless BUG being more similar to Jund than most other BUG decks. This is a difficult thread to manage - just look at the lists above. Compare Watanabe's list...
If that is the case, a much better argument would be that you shouldn't play Jace and Daze in the same deck. I wouldn't play a playset of Daze in a Jace deck, but some number of Daze and 2-3 Jace...
Engineered Plague is the only reason I beat Goblins and is the best tool against Esper decks running 3 Lingering Souls other than Dread of Night which is too linear right now. I played against both...
I just won a Legacy SCG IQ with this list on Sunday:
4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Dark Confidant
4 Tarmogoyf
2 Snapcaster Mage

You obviously know what you are talking about, and you did a great job on the OP. We can agree that Dark Confidant is the reason for many of the other changes in the list.
As far as...
I gotta run to work, but real quick -
It's true that you cannot kill a turn 2 Stoneforge on the draw with Ghastly *on their turn*. Dismember purely to eot kill Stoneforge is not a good enough...
I am actually not having trouble with aggro at all, which is my point. Dismember (with a Snapcaster control deck running black) and Liliana are pretty bad against aggro, and Dark Confidant is...
Hmmm... My group has been playing some version of "BUG control" (Team Amaerica without Stifle and with Jace) ever since JTMS was printed, and there are some glaring issues on this thread.
A few...
