    Played in a charity event (entry fee in donated items, top 8 prizes were also donated from various sources, first place was a volc) yesterday. We had 65 players so just over the line for 7 rounds. ...

    Typically, you'll want to go after either their monsters or their enablers exclusively, and that depends on what you have/what you know they have. If you know from a discard spell that they have a...

    Lost Legacy is way better in the unfair matchups in general but Slaughter Games is especially effective against Sneak/Show and can be useful if there's a Miracles presence in your metagame. In the...

    Re: [Primer] Nic Fit

    While I agree with you in general, I think your average 6 is going to be a lot worse in the matchup than THAT degree of disruption. I'd swap a Therapy for a Tracker in that hand in a heartbeat, but...

    Holding Surgical for Brainstorm is actually interesting. I would not have thought of that. Good line to keep in mind.

    I went for Surgical your Ponders to force the shuffle, then evaluate which...

    Re: [Primer] Nic Fit

    Interesting decision point came up in my local event last night, thought it might generate some good discussion.

    Playing Scape against ANT in game 3, I won game 2 on the back of turn 4 Wish-> Lost...

    I've liked Sylvan more, drawing cards is nice and we have plenty to do on turn 1, but I also don't own Guiles and haven't tried them.

    I moved off Sneak for mostly the reasons you mentioned, adding that drawing the second Sneak when you need a monster or -anything- else was just the worst feeling. Scape has better topdecks on...

    It's not good and comes to a race. You need to go full on combo plan. I board in extraction effects for crop rotation because rotation->chasm beats your scapeshift. Carnage Tyrant and Prime Time...

    Re: [Primer] Nic Fit

    Yeah I have no issue with cards having to be played as written... I always announced my triggers as "Vet trigger, would you like to search?" when I pick up my deck so this does not affect me at all.

    You're on a different build than I was thinking then, and that could be the way we need to battle them in that case!

    You'd think that, but it can be actually harder. A lot of our stuff didn't care much for Counterbalance, but they've basically replaced Counterbalance and Top with more card draw, finished the set...

    Well, I was lucky enough to avoid Jace decks entirely but, if nothing else my experience has been that the current build has a strong grind plan and the tools to beat up on Delver and similar styles...

    I was the one who initially made this swap and talked it up to A, my reasoning is this: both auto-win a decent amount of the time but have trade offs. Grave Titan leaves behind more power if it gets...

    At least minor synergy with Sneak Attack for whatever that's worth (I don't think it's very good)

    Re: [Primer] Nic Fit

    I've been idly theorycrafting a BUG Traverse build topping out at 13-mana Emrakul, but I don't have a list to share. There's probably something there, though.
