Well, despite any version you're running, does anybody have a good plan against U/R delver?

Well, despite any version you're running, does anybody have a good plan against U/R delver?
I think it dependson the fact that you are talking about some sort of "5 cards combo" (double untapped post + double candelabra in play and ugin in hand) that it's not so common to see in your...
Ok, i’ve read your comments, here are my considerations:
Candelabra: in the version I’ve developed, it’s not a very important card. I’m pretty sure that in mono-green versions it pulls his...
Hi all! After many months absent from the scene of magic tournaments, i've dusted off my beloved deck, but i'd like to have your suggestion about some card choices. This is the list i'm playing at...
A pretty brutal answer but yes, you got the point imho. Add to this that a Storm player 99% of the times will check your hand with a discard spell before going off, if he's not totally retarded will...
I still don't get the purpose of running Surgical Extractions in sb. Could someone please explain to me what they are for? (except for obvious applications like playing against Reanimator or nerfing...
I usually feel maverick is a good matchup for me. Crop Rotation, Pithing Needles and Show and Tell all make this matchup really affordable. When casting Needle, always name Wasteland, even if you...
Sorry for the late reply, i had been recently spending my time making lasagne and tortellini for today's lunch!
I've tested Treasure Cruise for a bit, and i honestly couldn't be more disappointed...
With an early Meekstone in play, you almost always win. Usually the eldrazi attack is anticipated by a titan attack that will provide you all the tools you need to end the game properly. If you have...
I'm posting here my latest list, which i tested a bit on Cockatrice and i found really satisfactory:
1x Bojuka Bog
1x Cavern of Souls
4x Cloudpost
1x Eye of Ugin
1x Forest
1x Island
1x...
Undoubtely yes, Lands.deck is on the rise again and Tabernacle is really good against UR and tempo decks. I've recently switched it to the maindeck and I'm almost always happy to draw it. It's a nice...
Well, it is the same situation of having a trop,eye and 3 posts, compared to karakas, eye and 3 posts.
Hey J-Funk, i just had the occasion of watching your match against RUG on the SCG archives and i think you missed a line of play that would have probably won the second game. It was your 5th turn,...
Well, 6 is a pretty low count to play chasm, i usually play it when i'm 12-10 lifes. This should give you something like 3-4 turns to recover depending on the amount of lifes you may gain from...
I really like where you've arrived, this looks really promising! Maybe it's a bit soft to multiple wastelands, but it should have a fair fight against almost the whole gauntlet. Also, doubling the...
Too bad you ended not running so well! Looking at your list i have some questions:
Why Chain of Vapor? It seems to me you do not have enough cheap permanents to be bounced with gain in response to...
Hi Drude, welcome to this thread! I usually enjoy reading different threads and i've seen you're quite a good one with Painter.
DD combo is in the sb because it basically kills BUG, Team America and...
So, ended 7th in a 45 man tournament with this:
4 Cloudpost
4 Glimmerpost
4 Tropical Island
4 Misty Rainforest
2 Vesuva
1 Island
1 Forest
1 Cavern of Souls
I didn't play much lately, but as for now i never had great issues against those decks. Maindeck Moment's Peace, and sideboard Chalice of the Void, Tabernacle, Dark Depths combo + counterspells...
I'm sorry but i don't get it. Lets say you cast Titania against U/R delver and it resolves. Since they're running no wastelands at all, it's possible that you have almost no lands to get back...
Well, two other enourmous difference between Titania and Crucible are color requirements and casting cost, and i'm not saying i'd play crucible at all. I see Titania as a really, really marginal card...
Hmm, i'm not sold on Titania at all, a Crucible of Worlds seems to be better in 90% of the cases...
We root for you, Maagler. Living in Italy i've never had the occasion to play in the SCG circuit, but i can't understand why you players don't simply refuse to play the tournament when this guy is...
I absolutely agree with Sauce, Ulamog is ALWAYS better than Kozilek. When you reach Eldrazi mana, you're close to end the game usually, and that's when you need a backbreaking card that will prevent...
I wouldn't rely too much On Leyline of Sanctity in order to fight combo. You may feel safe with it in play (assuming that you had it in the opening hand, which is not going to happen every time) but...
