I'm still on the GSZ package. IMO Death and Taxes is the better Vial deck because they can abuse Ports and Wastelands together with Vials. Ports + Vials in a mono coloured deck is saucy.

That deck is so greedy on so many levels. I guess he accepts the auto scoop to combo without thalia? No reb or thalia in the board? Otherwise, damn that list looks like a ton of fun.
I'd love to...
Dark Depths Replaces Maze of Ith & Thespian Stage replaces so-so lands like the 2nd canopy or a cavern of souls. It's much easier to squeeze in into a non splash straight up GW list. Yes if you see a...
I'm aware that stifle doesn't stop dark depths triggering as it will just trigger again due to state checking. I was referring to thespian stage being stifled when the copy is on the stack. If you...
That list looks super greedy but hey if you like Chapin-style do everything lists why not? Jack of all trades decks are good for pilots with superior play skill that can win their 50/50 matchups with...
What ever happened to dark depths? I'm running 1 dark depths and 1 thespian stage just as an alternative win with knight. I've played the list to death and it wins a ton of games for me. Knight isn't...
From my experience, Maze is totally droppable from the MD. Maze is the "extra leg" that KOTR can fetch. Now that we have a better bomb in DD combo, we don't need maze. Also this deck is the...
Dark Depths-Thespian's Stage. Running just 1 of each is enough to make sure Knight= GG. It's July now guys, time to play the combo.
I'm still convinced of a higher DD-TS count with crop rotations,...
I respect the vial build, it has many advantages. Right now I'm playing the GSZ list with heavy combo. Here's my list:
4 Noble Heirarch
4 Mother of Runes
4 KOTR
2 Pridemage
2 Ooze
4 Thalia
1...
That's what I like about the combo. When you're facing common gravehate like Deathrite/Scavenging Ooze etc, which munch up your lands, you get to have an alternate win condition. I'll be...
I will be playing this list:
4 Noble
4 Knight
4 Mother of Runes
2 Pridemage
4 Thalia
2 Scavenging Ooze
1 Gaddock Teeq
I think cutting GSZ is a very bad idea. The flexibility is what makes Mav so adaptable. Wayfarer seems ok, but I still prefer crop rotation because Wayfarer is something you can see coming, whereas...
Doesn't need protection for evasion, it flies! ;) Vesuva ETB with counters, so nope it doesn't work.
Drawing a single Thespian Stage is ok. It comes into play untapped and makes colourless. Seems decent. GW Mav makes use of plenty of colourless so it doesn't Bog your mana at all. Playing 3 gives you...
I think you guys need to test the Thespian Stage-Dark Depths combo in this deck now. It's the perfect fit for this deck. I'd cut some silver bullets lands for 3 Stage and some random silver bullet...
IMO you guys shouldn't write off loyal retainers combo. I played it in the past with Iona and it was a dangerous package. Also its not really that clunky. If you draw retainers, it can be used to...
Agreed preboard it's rough against quick storm. However this can beat slower combo like show and tell, NO and spiral tide (especially postboard). I'm not bashing on your deck or anything. Both decks...

I know those without loyal retainers will not like this list but I'm throwing it out there because it is pretty good:
4 STP
4 Vial
4 GSZ
2 Noble
4 Mom
4 Goyf
4 Fauna
