To the people who play Rich's Uwb version, what changes did you made to fit in Mental Misstep? For now I have cut the two Daze and the two Spell Snare for 4 MM.
Also does the addition of MM imply a...

I secon Rich, this discussion is unecessary: Standstill is proven and powerful, the correct metagame response has already been taken by going down to 3 Still and adding other ways to gain card...

You are right, for Ur(g) builds Spout is the best..
Instead of asking this you just could have read a couple of pages back, Rich is even mentioning it in his article. Same applies to the question...

On second thought i really would like to see the second EE in here. Not because of Chalice, but because of CB and its versatilty against all kinds of stuff.

To make room in the board i currently...

One question regarding the number of Engineered Explosives, i agree that 1 EE is enough in the maindeck, but i feel a little bit uncomfortable with no further EEs in the board. Most concerning is a...

While i dont want to take away what Wasteland accomplished (i commended earlier), i want to keep a realistic assessment on the decks performance.

Some notes regarding this:
- Quite a bunch of...

Marius Hausmann (Wasteland) went undefeated with Ur Dreadstill, which is a great accomplishment - so my props to him. Looking forward to a tourney report from him!

Concerning CB, i observed a similar thing in my Ugr list, which relies more heavily on CB. Maybe it was bad luck or is something special to Dreadstill, as it doesnt run Swords, but i came to the...

After playing Ugr Dreadstill at the Germany Legacy tournament with a disappointingrecord of 3-4-1, i decided to give the Ur version another try.
If somebody is interested in what went wrong just...

I agree with pippo here, the deck gets a lot of options after boarding.
To be a little more concrete, based on the more or less agreed on Ugr build, if you want to metagame for Zoo and Merfolk - i...

About Goyf and "wasting" counters, how could you generalize such a thing?
It depends on your hand and the gamestate obviously, but the given you have Stifle and Nought in hand and the circumstances...

Neckfire i have to disagree with you, concerning your assment of the Ugr and Ur build, your claim is that the Ur version plays the control role better than Ugr (which in turn plays the aggro role...

Concerning the Ugr sideboard, mine looks like this currently:

// Sideboard
SB: 1 [FD] Engineered Explosives
SB: 3 [TSP] Krosan Grip
SB: 2 [TSB] Tormod's Crypt
SB: 3 [SHM] Firespout
...

I currently consider VsTheWorld build (Ugr) close to optimal. Out of personal preference i play the 3rd Daze with the second EE in the board.
Where i cant decide is how to build the manabase.

His...

After loosing too many games to Merfolk i dismissed the Ug build for now and moved to the Ugr build, which seems to be the best currently (backed up by the recent success of Ugr).

Looking at the...

Sadly i got the feeling that most of the posts in this thread lack quality / testing / thoughts / whatever.
Enough flaming, onto content.


-Spell Snare:

Everybody talks about how amazing...

The matches are a little blurry right now, but i try my best:
Gbw Loam:
First game i mulled to six on the playand kept a hand with a Waste and a Mishras as only mana source, no blue and no win for...

First of nice to see that there is interest in the deck. People still think Nought is a very fragile creature that 2 for 1 you, but fail to see that it is more like a combo that can often decide the...

In my opinion there is no point in splashing black, if you keep the Ur maindeck and not playing Confidant and maybe Tombstalker.

Perish is narrow and i prefer to have Firespout in any case, which...

Just finished a local tourney (~ 22 ppl showed up) as 3rd with the following list.

Creatures
3 Phyrexian Dreadnought
4 Tarmogoyf
3 Trinket Mage

Spells
4 Counterbalance
4...

Despite GP results with Sower maindeck, i see the card only work in one scenario: In a MUC style deck, where the maindeck threats present themselves all immun to spot removal (eg Morphling) comes...

I agree with you here that the deck need an update with the GP results in mind.
First of i consider the Ur version as ideal, so i started from there. Like i posted in the Dreadstalker thread my...

First of, i think that Blood Moon is still stronger than Magus, because its more likely that they'll either have a basic Plains or can float mana for Swords, than Forest / float mana for Grip.

Hey thanks for the answer.

Concerning scoop to CB, was Engineered Explosvies not available to answer it?

Congratz on your finish.

Would it be too much trouble to provide a little tournament report?
I am especially interested in splash and sideboard choices.
