Congrats on the finish! just several questions and hope you could answer them.

1. Why SoFaF over SoFI or 2nd Jitte or Batterskull in the maindeck. SoFI gives you draw and removal when it...

@koby
maybe big zoo can take a page out of the mav's play book by adding thalia in the sb vs combo decks.

yup big zoo can own mav or tribal easy, but te question is why, nobody is playing it...

How is 2 points of damage from punishing fire going to help you ???? yes don't let the merfs get big... but 16-18 Lords and timely counters ..... vs 4 stp 3 fires ???? do you really think that its a...

Hi,
Im not sure how effective really is punishing mav vs merfs... on paper and theory it is because it has recursion but would 2 points of damage worth anything against LOA, MotPT, Coralhelm, Reerey...

Hello,
Im currently running a GW maverick hybrid of DT, i've posted my list on the DT section but the posters shot down the idea.

I had a successful run with my build in a 107 man tourny in our...

Would the 2 PTE bring your win percent to 65-75% against RUG ? If all of you would say yes, then i guess there is really something wrong on how i play mav. Because my experience says adding 2 PTE...

@UGR topic
Just wondering hows the match up of fire mav against RUG ?
Since you guys are saying that the additional 3 PTE on the side vs RUG is a good plan, whats your win % against them ? is it...

Hello,
I know that GSZ is really a strong card, no doubt about it and gives you flexibility on your creature list. I've used it for a long time before deciding to put them a the sidelines.
...

I've posted my build several pages, ive replaced
4 gsz
1 arbor
2 ooze
1 ranger
1 thrun

For
4 vials
4 serra avengers

@Tempo topic
Yes you can say that it depends on there hand and if they are on the draw or play. Yes on the play you can somehow have the upper hand assuming you get a good mana ramp start.

But,...

Exactly my point.., you need resources to power out gsz properly.., the real question is can you land a kotr turn 3 that is not boltable range nor catch a daze on that turn. Yes kotr will be a...

Hello
Just wondering.., having a generic mav creature base of
3-4 noble heiarch
3-4 kotr
2-3 pridemage
1-2 ooze, tarmo, scryb ranger
1 offs of eternal witness, teeg, etc.

Ask yourself does...

Thanks, blood moon is really devastating, thats why decks like imperial painter are such a pain to play against, in my traditional mav list in where i ran 4 basics my win % against moon effect is...

@Morte
congrats on the strong finish !

how was the rebs on the SB, do you think is it worth the slot, any plans on increasing its count ?

we also have a upcoming tourny in our place i'll post...

I guess people are starting to notice what i've have been pointing out in regards to mav is too much dependent on equips and a stf being hit by stifle will hurt mav's aggro power against other...

@vs UGR Thresh
Running Red mav has its benefits against them as you can control there lavamancer and delver but the problem is getting there or being able to survive all the tempo cards like stifle,...

Thats true thats why i raised the concern of mav's creature are still dependent on equips.., with an evasive creature the equipment becomes better..

Just a detour on the current topic of Red Mav, i know that punishing fires is a form of card advantage in a sense are there any card advantage strategies out there that could be used by mav. sylvan...

Punishing fire needs lots of mana for you to be able to use it properly so do equips vs tempo decks or fast decks or decks that cripple your mana you will choose which route to take. Big zoo almost...

Hello,
I've always liked the idea of NO combo in the GW aggro shell but the problem of it is its very delicate in the sense if you draw the progen automatically 3-4 cards in your deck are dead draws...

Its true that Edric gives you "i must block every creature my opponent has" but mav seldom swarms out its opponents and i think you must have some kind of evasion in order to draw constantly. Right...

Previously i ran a light blue splash for geist saint traft, edric seems good but being as a 1 off in the deck it would feel like its a win more card like the previous poster said, maybe in a...

Hello fellow mav users,
The Life from the loam concept i think was discussed earlier in this thread if not maybe it was offline on MWS. Anyways it was an SB plan which is designed to crush control...

Thats good then, i guess its too early to tell, but i was guessing that with snapcaster decks and other popping up tempo ugr, etc., maverick will have a hard time dealing with them.

Hello
Just wondering.., have you guys seen any maverick decks made it into the top 8 or 16 after misstep was banned ?

With all the following decks below becoming very prominent in the meta is...
