    Despite the DQ, Matt Kuranda ran it back to an 8th place finish with a U/W list that ran two Search for Azcanta and two Unexpectedly Absent.

    I'm beginning to think Mentor is better than EtA because it allows you to go as fast or slow as you want. This Johannes Gutbrod list looks really exciting because you can play a fast G1 against...

    Re: [DTB] UWx Miracle Control

    Congrats to Kobayashi Tatsuumi for their win at the GP Kyoto side event, I think 209 players is the largest paper event Miracles has taken down yet although I'm not certain.

    Would it be most...

    Re: [DTB] UWx Miracle Control

    Moat is a fine SB card for an Eldrazi-heavy meta.

    Esper Miracles w/ Thoughtseize sounds like a straight-up combo muncher. It seems bad in a meta with a lot of fair decks.

    Re: [DTB] UWx Miracle Control

    If B2B was of a higher power level than Blood Moon, it would be harder to justify splashing red, since the deck's manabase has become a bit more shaky post-ban. Blood Moon is more powerful than...

    Re: [Deck] Aggro Loam

    Two ideas:

    1) run a 1-of Ramunap Excavator for the mana denial plan since he is GSZ-tutorable

    2) replace both Loams with Ramunap Excavator

    Re: [DTB] R/G Combo Lands

    Wasn't Ensnaring Bridge used as an oldschool anti-Sneak & Show card? It will make them dig for an Echoing Truth unless they're Omni-Tell, and I can't help but feel like there is no way Lands can...

    Re: [Deck] Vaka Pox

    Your list needs Thoughtseize for this meta. Combo is absolutely a thing and a turn 1 play is going to be critical against decks like ANT.

    Are you already running 4 swords? Blessed Alliance is very mana-intensive and the 4 life seems underwhelming vs. Burn.

    This deck seems like a chunky, unwieldy version of Grixis Delver with a somewhat better lategame.

    Isn't Warmth better than Chill? I feel like Burn can just sit and accumulate mana for a few turns and then wipe us out with a Chill in play, but a Warmth or Kor Firewalker really starts punishing...

    Re: Miracle Control

    I thought the worst matchups were Burn, 12 Post, and decks with both Loam/Punishing Fire, personally.

    As for MBT, it is a fine card only in the Storm matchup. You can diversify your hate to make...

    Memory Lapse seems good against storm but it sounds awful against something like Sneak Attack if they're just going to get to recast it next turn.
