This is why I suggested to swap the creatures when you go for main deck Chalice. I also thought the Golem would give affinity to all your artifacts, not just creatures, so you would be able to combo...
With zero 1-cmc main deck and 8 sol-lands + petal/mox it's hard not want main deck Chalice.
But I can see the reasoning of not wanting to pay mana. Might be better to swap the Scepter for Chalice...
So I've been testing some more cards and fine tuned my list some more.
Creature (22)
4 Stitcher's Supplier
4 Satyr Wayfinder
1 Bloodghast
1 Dryad Arbor
4 Vampire Hexmage
4 Elvish Reclaimer...
I'm new to Depths (sort of, used to have Hexmage/Depths as random combo way back in the days) and these Hogaak/Depths lists look great. They have so many cards I want to play for ages but couldn't...
I'm not sure Stifle is that much of a powerhouse at the moment.
With the coming of Prismatic Vista several decks can find their basic land better and stabilize their mana around wasteland/stifle....
You can use it actively to get rid of countermagic and combad tricks. Upkeep use to not get killed by WoG effects.
Also you make Terminus and Infernal Tutor cry.
Apart from Mom, D&T never had much 1-drops creatures. The whole bases of D&T creature pile is made out of 2-drops and supporting 3-drops (beaters/tutors/wisp). So unless there are good 1-drops to add...
Took the following list to a 5-round tournament for top 8 and sadly missed it by an inch.
Creatures:
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Pteramander
3 Nimble Mongoose
2 True-Name Nemesis
Spells:
4 Force...
Nice write-up.
To me it still seems a bit counter-intuitive to play both discard and stifle in the same list, but at the same time it will catch people off-guard.
Playing only 10 threads and no...
I'm currently (next to 3 Push) on 3 Trophy main 1 side. The card is stupidly good and versatile. You can even land-lock other delver decks with it or take out those 1-off basic lands that people play...
When I started to play and learn (Grixis) Delver years ago I would side the standard -4 Fow or -4 Daze depending if you're on the play or on the draw. This was the standard play for RUG Delver at...
Got 2 lists I'm working on. 1 with Stifle and one without:
Creatures: (12)
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Narnam Renegade
3 Sultai Scavenger
2 True-Name Nemesis
Spells: (29)
4 Force of Will
How is that guy playing Careful Study over Faithless Looting? Makes no sense at all.
Anyway, when I got time I'm going to try to fit Pteramander in the BUG shell I got now and test out mono-U.
I tried that card in my Grixis Tempo shell a long time ago. Was actually really easy to flip and not all that bad but I had better alternatives in that color like some Delve creatures and Pyromancer....
That makes sense, thanks!
What are the thoughts on Smuggler’s Copter? Anyone tried it recently?
Being able to loot trough your cards seems something D&T could use.
I like that list. Forgot about Dismember for a second there, fits just fine.
Might sleeve it up when I got the Pteramanders. Been looking for an excuse to play Psionic Blast in legacy for a while.
Looking at the deckslists and the comments in this thread I feel like people are aiming more to a mid-range deck instead of a tempo deck.
Being a tempo-deck means you drop efficient (cheap to drop...
Anyone still working on a list?
I tested some different compositions of the list. Even dropped Stifle (and put in discard) for a bit but I think I might get cold feet and put Stifle back in. Been...
Got this one in my discord list: https://discord.gg/PxAzw8V
Alright, did some testing with my new BUG list and got to the following list:
Lands [19]
3 Underground Sea
2 Tropical Island
1 Bayou
4 Polluted Delta
4 Misty Rainforest
1 Verdant Catacombs...
Speaking of thinking outside of the box:
I've been trying a BW-list for a bit since it can use Pontiff to fix some bad match-ups like Elves and the mirror. Also tried Kambal but didn't like it.
...
Intresting idea. Do you have a more complete list?
I used to run 3 Petals sideboard to ramp out Thalia/Canonist/Teeg (depending on the version I played) turn 1 vs. storm on game 2. Actually had the...
In Grixis Tempo (same as most tempo decks), when sideboarding, I always check for the cards I want to bring in, then cut 'bad' cards main deck and see how it fits. If I need more slots to bring in...
