Pyroclasm slows us down more than Searing Blaze. Just watch out for Ruric Thar postboard... Elves players with him in the side are going to try to resolve NO ASAP.

Decay is significantly better than any of the cards you suggested. The can't be countered part of Decay makes it excellent against all of their soft counters, and all of the cards you suggested can...
The white or blue splashes are something to consider but there is no consensus currently about which is better. I'm currently GB only.

Amusing. Very specific hate there. Was this main deck? I can't imagine they ran more than 2 copies... I'd just hope to hit it with discard next time.

It isn't so much TNN hate, but deck choices to combat the TNN decks. More Dredge, TES/ANT, and new decks like Jund Depths are either too fast or really hateful against our strategy. At least that...
I don't get how ESG is better at making mana than Heritage Druid, or why you even run Glimpse if you forego Heritage, or why Birchlore would be run with no splash over Heritage. You absolutely need...
The better question is if Elves is viable in your meta. If your local game has a lot of those types of decks then it might be advisable to play something else for the time being. Decks get better and...
Really...what made you change your mind, Julian? A month ago we were anti-Envelop/Swan Song and now everyone wants it. Swan Song strikes me as a card that is pretty narrow in comparison to...
That's exactly what my post-Savannah-less mana base would like, so I'll probably make the change whenever I can get to a small event for testing. I've admittedly haven't played since the GP since...
Hey man, those were my formative years of slinging green men you are dissing, Sir! :tongue:
May I ask what land base you are using now? If I drop the Savannah I'd add the 2nd Arbor I think,...
I think Regal Force would be better at maintaining CA vs. sweepers than Bane.
Side Note: How many people are moving away from the white splash? Pridemage is the only thing holding me back...
I just want to address the bolded items.
Enchantments in UWr Miracles: The problem with trying to game UWr Miracles with a card like Bane is that there is a lot of leeway in that particular...
As Dice said, no more Crop Rotation due to legendary rule change. The deck also doesn't need Regal Force anymore as Hoof usually wins when you have high creature counts that make Regal Force useful....
The problem with Gavony is that it only produces mana for less than half of the spells in our deck. You would actually have to replace real cards for Township AND run some Birchlore Rangers, both...
Any previous Elves list aggroed better than the current list tbh. If Entity was green I would have actually played that iteration of the deck. I love the NO list because we have gone from 4...
Ruric Thar MD only seems to be a choice where you expect lots of Storm. I guessed correctly that Storm would show up at Legacy Champs and not GP:DC, so I played it MD in the former and SB in the...
Heh, I picked up TES pieces this past weekend too. Not that I plan putting Elves down forever, but I do want to expand my Legacy horizons.
I'll write out my SB plan for these lists with my MD/SB from the GP that you can see in my report above. I'll go ahead and say that when I side things out I usually do a bunch of one-ofs that I take...
Tournament Report for Ben Ketel, 30th at Grand Prix: Washington DC
Hello everyone, figured I'd do a quick and dirty game-by-game of my pretty nice weekend in DC. I went into the tourney with no...
I definitely kept my MD Viridian Shaman in.
Hey guys, Ben here. While I was a little nervous being on camera, my lack of understanding what Sam's deck was capable of was my downfall as I think I made tons on mistakes on camera. Aside from...
A couple of things about the UWR matchup:
1. I'm convinced it is the nightmare mu. I don't know how these other pilots say they never lose to it. I think Elves fares badly against the fair...
I get the sentiment that Envelop is trying to convey, but are there other cards that hurt Sneak n' Show better? Preferably something that doesn't involve a different splash? I'm inclined to think...
So how do you feel about Envelop? Am I correct in thinking this is a combo hate card that is a little more flexible vs. decks with Show and Tell?
Rats, you and your logic! Well, then Ruric isn't as good against them as I thought it was. Makes me question why I run him in the main then...I don't like him against Bolt decks since Bolt +...
