Have you tried painting a tunnel on the side of a cliff? I hear that works wonders.
This was awesome fun last time, and should be awesome fun again.
You better believe I'll be there and wrecking!
(First smack, bitches!)
This is not entirely true. 3sphere was restricted in Vintage because it could be reliably played first turn and the DCI concluded that a reliable, first-turn 3sphere was "unfun".
Sure, Workshop...
Have you considered a splash?
White gives you Magus of the Tabernacle and some extra Propaganda effects if you want them, plus 'geddon.
The problem with presenting a bunch of 'budget' decks to new Legacy players is that this isn't attractive.
Magic is a game. In most games, (chess, poker, Limited, etc.) no one player goes into the...
I'd be willing to do the necessary work to preserve anonymity. As a college student currently on winter break, I have far too much free time.
Well, -I- think it's a neat idea, anyway. However, you're going to need more land for the Runes to be really effective against horde decks like Goblins. They do make lands that cycle, so you could...
Carnophage and Sarcomancy are both terrible, horrible, awful threats. Vanilla 2/2s that also lose you life are the suck in a world of Tarmogoyf. You should probably replace them with something...ya...
Daze is probably going to be awful in this, a control deck. You don't want to be losing land drops, and late game, where the control deck is supposed to shine, Daze is crap.
Not enough decks rely on the graveyard to make a deck based on graveyard hate a good idea. Belcher, Goblins, and Landstill don't care about Leyline of the Void, and Survival can function without it. ...
That's what this deck needs! More POKEMANS!
But seriously, Phyrexian Processor seems sub-par. Making big dudes is only okay. If I were to replace creatures in this deck, I'd replace the remaining...
Try out Fact or Fiction as some of the bigger draw spells.
Also think about including 1 or 2 copies of Academy Ruins to recur Disk. If you do that, maybe include an artifact kill condition so you...
This deck should probably figure out a way to run some form of disruption so you don't just keel over and die to combo.
Chalice of the Void, for example, is really strong against combo AND...
If you're going to recur a creature, it should either be a) something that beats Tarmogoyf, or b) Tarmogoyf.
Shriekmaw falls into category a. Being able to kill every 'goyf your opponent plays is...
A two-card combo that costs OVER 9000! mana and can be disrupted by a basic land doesn't seem viable in this format.
Is there some interaction I'm missing that would stop this play from also killing you, causing the game to be a draw?
The advantage of Gifts is that you can start with 0 combo pieces and end up with all of them from a single copy.
If the deck is going to run E.E. and Crypt main I think Academy Ruins might warrant a spot as a singleton to continually abuse them.
I am also of the opinion that Thoughtseize is going to be...
Chill is not a bit problem. One can win through Chill. It does not stop the playing of spells. You want a real problem, CounterTop is a real problem.
Trinket Mage gets Dreadnought, along with Needle, Top, Crypt, etc. Consider him.
I imagine Thoughtseize in the board helps at least a little bit, and maindecking Sharpshooter again gives an answer (ableit a sub-par one) to Empty the Warrens. Mad Auntie also helps deal with...
If you're playing Burn, you worry about the other guy's life total a whole lot more than you worry about your own. Reasons not to run Street Wraith include increased difficulty in mulliganing....
If you're playing Pit Dragon (and probably even if you aren't) play Gathan Raiders. You typically have something you can pitch (extra mana sources, etc.) and a 5/5 for 3 is really, really good.
...
If the mana base could deal with it, Rishadan Port could be an interesting addition. It supplements the mana-denial strategy, as well as being good against Landstill and a decent 2-drop.
