hey guys I am exploring the blue splash right now for a card that I ve heard is pretty good:

the deck is full of...

hey, I was thinking to start playing this deck but I am confused about the inclusion of tidehollow sculler. It seems weak in all possible way and costs 2 colored mana. Thinking in a D&T direction I...

hi all. I have been playing BUG control for a while now (walkers build) and I have been very content with the deck. I was wondering for which MUs is standstill truly beneficial as compared to more...

@Raystar: why are you not playing 1 savannah if you are planning to sideboard spirit of the labitinth? why playing krosan grip over abrupt decay if you are playing black anyway?

I am very...

I am happy for Spirit of the labyrinth. It seems very powerful, maybe even better than thalia. It gives creatures decks a good chance against combo. Packing thalia + Spirit of the labyrinth protected...

Purphoros is cool and all but do we really have space for it? Either we (1) overload the 4+ MD space or we (2) cut krenko/SGC. I don t think the first option is smart. The second option is not...

Agreed. Either you replace a goblin with a better goblin or replace a goblin with a kickass card for that MU.

On another note I am still testing a list featuring 3 matrons and 1 krenko + 1 mirror...

Against combo graveyard decks is way too slow sure, as often is relic. I am more thinking against tarmogoyf / punshing fire / knight of the reliquary / lavamancer / mongoose / deathrite shaman / life...

Played at a local turney, 20+ people. 5 rounds + top4.

4 Goblin Lackey
4 vial

4 thalia
4 Mogg War Marshal

1 Stingscourger
3 Gempalm Incinerator

Thalia is very good against shardless I agree that it hurts taking her out. But I give grave hate an edge because without graveyard they cannot actually win. Thalia slows them down a ton, rest in...

thanks. I Didn t take much notes so the report will be slim, here are the highlights:

R1: shardless BUG: 2-1

I lost the first game due to mana starvation. I kept an awsome hand with a lot of...

It has been a while once again, but I finally played the deck again winning a small local turney of 16 players. 5 rounds of swiss + top4. Getting some store credit.

I modified the list that I...

thanks for the inputs and thanks for the links. I can see the main problem is consitency and Sensei's Divining Top is probably too awkward with chalice of the void. Splashing blue probably helps in...

Hi everybody!
I wonder why it is so rare to see around stompy decks featuring the classic lock pieces in the form of sol lands + chrome mox + chalice of the void + trinisphere. Simian spirit guide...

@Davrek: I feel the same way about having chances on G1 and unfortunatelly I don t believe that goblin shaped things like WI and PD are fast enough to consistently race combo nowadays. Winning G2...

Thanks for sharing the list but I didn t understand whether you already played with it at a local tournament

- MIRROR ENTITY. I have tested this guy for about a month, I think it was something...

I by no means intent to be arrogant and I apologize if I sounded that way. Of course, I am sure that everybody has tested krenko but I have been loughed at for not playing SCG and I have been loughed...

Man, thank you for this post. Extremely clear and well written. I think you pinpointed wery well two things that I failed to consider:
- the "flattering factor" of playing a list similar to that of...

GoboLord, I don t want be misunderstood here let me put it another way. What I can see from looking at decklists on the net, including this forum, is that the large majority of goblin players are...

I don t get this. If you sac a goblin for 2 extra damage this turn it means that you are missing 3 damages next turn (1/1 goblin + PD trigger). Sacching goblins on T3 in the examples is irrelevant...

It could be that.



Sweeper example #1: I have in hand chieftan + krenko, you have SGC + piledriver:
me:
T1 cast chieftain attack for 2 (2)
T2 cast krenko, tap, attack for 6 (8)
T3 tap...

True! but the printing of wear//tear made the green splash less necessary in my opinion. The main reason for splashing green is krosan grip not TSH anyway. However, I found myself boarding krosan...

so.... I did it! I played with the "theoretically best list of all", a list that maximize the win% data that GoboLord presented. 15 players, 4 round + top4.

4 Cavern of Souls
4 Wasteland
2...

Cutting piledrivers is very legit, I can say that from testing a lot without them. Also, GoboLord statistics show that cutting piledrivers is a reasonable choice. You do have to make up for it with...

Thank you GoboLord for this awsome work!
I will for the sake of statistic play with a list that combines the highest win percentages from your analysis:





soooo.... based on these numbers...
