  1. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Thanks for the feedback on my sideboard changes Jonathan Alexander!



    Sulfuric Vortex can definitely be hard to pay for. It's something that I have played in the past and have had the pleasure...
  2. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Hello!

    After taking a year and a half off from any competitive play due to life getting in the way of Magic. I played at my local FNM legacy event though this past Friday and I came away with a...
  3. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Would you say that you take out Goyf before any Lightning Bolts? I agree though that Goyf is next on the chopping block since most Miracles decks bring in RiP against us.
  4. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Vortex is a house against Miracles and Clique is also fantastic. Clique in response to a miracle trigger is too strong of play to forgo. I understand the fear of a three mana card (especially with...
  5. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    haha well besides that obvious flub. It still has 99% of good information :tongue:
  6. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    Congrats on your finish. Would the 2nd Counterspell be worth cutting in your mind for the 4th FOW? Also, how were the Meddling Mages in your SB? Do you remember which matches you brought them in...
  8. Re: [Cedar Falls, Iowa] Legacy for Blue Duals at the Core June 27th

    Pumped for this! Hopefully I can get some people to come up from the Des Moines area.

    Thanks for posting!

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    Is Containment Priest no good against D&T? Seems like another angle to attack Vial. I guess I haven't thought too much about what would come out for it though. Is that part of the problem of...

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    I actually one time Disenchanted an Omniscience. That felt pretty good. I boarded in on the off chance of something like Defense Grid like what YamiJoey mentioned.

    Opponent tapped out to...
  11. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    My personal experience with the Elves! matchup has not been so great. The ability for the deck to just overwhelm you quickly makes it hard to contain. Even if you Bolt the T1 DRS they still can...

    Re: Legacy Sundays - Cedar Falls, Iowa

    Good luck this Sunday!

    Down in Des Moines they have legacy twice a month. The first Sunday of the month at noon, $10 bucks, and 150% credit payout in prizes usually between 16 - 12 people with...
  13. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I would not waste here and I think that's the point you are trying to make though? Pointing out how bad that would be for your opponent to waste you after a T1 Delver on the play.





    100%...
  14. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Had my small local this weekend and finished 3-1. Finishing top 4 for $42 bucks store credit.

    I beat Elves!, UR Delver, and Painter. Losing to Burn. I am running the "stock" list of 54 with x3...
  15. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Thanks for the feedback. Very helpful.

    I have my small local this weekend. I'll report back how it goes.
  16. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Thanks for the post regarding your sideboard choices.

    I am also one of the players will do the 2x2 split between siding FoW and Daze rather then all four FoW when sideboarding. I prefer FoW...
  17. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I know that I would be interested. There has been a lack of feedback since recent meta shift.

    And congrats!! Thanks for fighting the good fight :)
  18. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Hmmmm, I don't think I was remembering that correctly. Pretty sure I didn't Snare a Sudden Shock. :really:

    More likely I thought about it, but thought better after thinking about it a little...

    Re: High Profile Magic Players

    It has to do with the streaming strategy that StarCity is doing as well. They are building up these players as heroes to watch on the SCG streams. They had that huge three part article series where...
  20. Re: [blog post] Top 8 at "King of Eternal" with Team America

    Thanks for sharing the report and congrats!
  21. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Hello,

    Played in a 5 round local tourny yesterday finishing 4-1. Mess around with the 6 flex spots a little bit and was pleasantly surprised. Otherwise it was the old tried and true version of...
  22. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Thanks! Yeah, it was a strange list I didn't know if that was something Shardless was trying out now? But he had the Visions + Shardless Agent, Tarmogoyf, Deathrite, Baleful Strix, and Stoneforge...
  23. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Hello!

    This past weekend I was able to 4-0 my local. My matchups were Elves! (2-1), RUG Delver (2-0), Shardless BUG (2-0), and Sneak and Show (2-1). The list that I used is the standard 54 with...

    Re: Deck Taxonomy

    My definition of tempo was always trumping your opponents early turns with superior cards in the early game while also disrupting their plan and "keeping" your opponent in the early stages of a game...
  25. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I agree TNN isn't where we want to be. The meta is shifting more and more towards mid-range. This is where TNN thrives. Rather then joining the party I say we stay in the early game and keep our...
