    Re: Braids Stax

    Yeah, Eldrazi's Achilles heel is basically any kind of prison deck. It auto-loses to Ensnaring Bridge and is very soft to Wastelock, Moon effects, and Smokestack.

    Re: Braids Stax

    I think if you're trying to go agro with this deck you should look into the new Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet. He dodges bolt and decay, has lifelink, hoses dredge, and makes a dude everytime your...

    Re: Braids Stax

    I haven't commented in this thread in forever so I figured I'd address some things. Liliana is INSANE and I highly recommend her. Her -2 is great to kill early threats, and her +1 (while you...

    Re: Braids Stax

    First off, Nether Void is bad. I've played it in multiple decks, and the card is a double-edged sword. If you don't draw Cavern it's awful. If your opponent draws more lands than you, it's awful. ...

    Re: Braids Stax

    I upped the Urborg count (as you noticed) and haven't really had issues casting Lili. Persecutor is interesting, although I feel like the role he is playing for you can easily be played by Ratchet...

    Re: Braids Stax

    The solution (I discovered) to your Ensnaring Bridge problem is to play Liliana of the Veil and Bottled Cloister alongside it. Also, Tangle Wire is actively bad with Bridge as it taps mana sources...

    4 Cavern of Souls
    4 City of...
