  1. Re: Pre-Innistrad League Top 8 Live Stream - Friday 5/15 @ 5ish EST

    That folder is from our first (and only so far, thanks Covid) paper event, different to the one this thread is about. We do have lists though, they're on this doc under 'league 1 T8 decklists'

    Re: [Deck] A Cold Day in Hell (Breach Freeze)

    Thanks!





    My bad, I didn’t read your tone as negative at all, it was just laying things out with more context. Reading it back what I said came across more scathing than I intended!

    Re: [Deck] A Cold Day in Hell (Breach Freeze)

    I didn't have a lot of reps with the deck before the event so take what I say with a grain of salt (I basically copied Iwouldliketoresponds list and then he changed a couple of things), but I had...

    Re: FGC Stompy

    Or you can get Necrotic Ooze as the 3rd Buried Alive target and just Animate Dead that after making all the mana.

    Re: No more Legacy on the SCG Tour

    Nah, I would have loved to get a Lotus for years but it's way too much money to justify, especially when you factor in how much you can use it. This 'unobtainability' is very real. Sure you may be...

    Cool, Amber looks pretty good to me so that's nice feedback. I think I'll just try 1 to start though, but we'll see. Emry coming out quickly def helps it.

    Agree on the interaction front and I...

    Re: Emry Stompy

    The deck is a blast for sure.

    I had a Forge as a Karn wish target for a bit but it underperformed since all the best cards in the deck apart from more Karns and situationally Chalice aren't...

    Re: Emry Stompy

    What's your manabase like to support Teferi? I want to test Oko in the deck too but I'm not sure what's the best way to build it. Maybe fetches, but the deck has felt nice with loads of basics.

    Re: Grixis Phoenix

    Nice job! How were the Surgical Extractions and Dazes?

    I'm not fully on board with cutting discard spells and a Preordain honestly, especially a Cabal Therapy.

    Re: Minotaur Tribal (AKA Toot toot!)

    Definitely. Or if you have Adaption out Lackey can put anything in, or Matron can tutor for any creature. Let's make it happen.

    Mmm this is nice! I'll give it a whirl soon as you say.



    Yeah all good, thanks for suggesting it! The deck can play out differently to how it looks on face value and is a bit unintuitive in...

    Re: Grixis Phoenix

    I tried CB out a bunch in the early lists. It's OK, but a bit low power level and 2 mana is a lot for this deck.



    I think Regrowth falls into what you quoted actually, it's expensive in the...

    Re: Grixis Phoenix

    OK, I'll try and get around to trying it soon! I can see the potential. I think at the beginning I may have zoned in on just fetching Phoenixes, but it is pretty gross with YP and Therapy.

    I tried Land Grant in a Rit/Buried shell through a league last night, base BUG with Goyfs over YPs and a couple of Decays in the main, it felt horrible unfortunately.

    Re: Grixis Phoenix

    It's interesting alright!

    This is my gut reaction

    - smallballing Phoenixes generally isn't a winning play in the format. What I mean by that is discarding them to a looting effect and getting...

    Re: Grixis Phoenix

    Lighting Bolt is still a good card. I think Forked is probably better in this deck, but it's not going to be a huge difference.

    I've actually been a bit disappointed with Flusterstorms and Spell...

    Re: [Deck] TEP (The Epic Pit)

    Probably not honestly, it seems like a natural synergy of Reclamation wanting ramp but land based ramp rather than fast mana, but if the deck was able to play with natural land drops it could be fine.

    Re: [Deck] TEP (The Epic Pit)

    The win cons are Nexus of Fate, Blue Sun's Zenith or Empty the Pits.

    The deck is control, you play a long game and with BSZ you essentially can draw your deck which then lets you use Nexus to take...

    Yep, instant speed would be the reason to play it.

    But we have our own threats and ways to close out the game already, in my experience so far it's been hard to even get Echoing Truth to land on...

    Hey! I agree, now that I've played vs it too I really struggle to sb vs it from a number of decks, it's certainly one of this decks biggest strengths which is nice. Bob has especially performed.
