  1. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Guess we will have to disagree on a lot of these because it appears our experiences have varied and we think of the deck differently. FWIW I don't think honden is good enough either, but the same...
  2. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    The fact it is a creature is relevant against thalia. Against D&T you similarly have to worry about swords obviously, so being a creature is once again a liability there.



    In my experience, the...
  3. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Concerning this list I really dislike a couple things:
    1) The sideboard. I think that if you're gonna play a pinger it needs to not be creature based, or needs to be able to go tempo neutral. Three...
  4. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I just saw! Looking forward to seeing the list.
  5. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Anyone playing at vegas? I'd love to hear how everyone is doing/ see some reports after.
  6. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Library is more of a threat than a cantrip, not that the distinction is terribly important. You should NEVER consider running Library over something like Ponder. I like playing Library in place of...

    Some thoughts on your build:

    1) I think that you want less than 12 creatures in pretty much all builds of Canadian, and especially so when you are playing multiple True-Names. I think that you can...

    Tarmogoyf:...
  10. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    G1 I'm on the play. Hand is 3 lands, 2 goyfs, delver and a daze. Very good hand in the mu. Delver go, let swiftspear resolve, jam a goyf, daze eidolon, jam another goyf. Game is over from there.

  12. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    So with miracles back in the mix, and the format not looking as deathrite saturated as I had previously predicted, I am interested in sleeving up canadian again. Some things that I have experienced...

    Re: [Deck] Grixis Tempo

    I don't think he meant imbalanced from the perspective of doing busted, powerful things. I think he meant that all of the czech piles are imbalanced from a matchup spread perspective. The deck is...

    Re: [DTB] Sneak and Show

    I think that this is a good point considering sanctum prelate is a card. I think, with that in mind, I would go -1 return and +1 sudden shock.

    2 Preordain
    4 Spell Pierce
    2 Gitaxian Probe

    I really am focused on trying to jam the combo early.

    Re: [DTB] Sneak and Show

    While lightning bolt addresses the problem cards in d&t (not taking mom into account), and buys time against aggro strats, it doesn't answer leovold cleanly, and is a stone cold blank against combo...

    Re: [DTB] Sneak and Show

    With the banning of top we lose a couple things:
    1) A positive matchup in the deck Miracles
    2) The option of playing sensei's top against the grindy goodstuff decks

    The first one likely has more...
