    Re: [Deck] U/G Infect

    I can, but I also have a bad memory. So this Merchant Scroll comparison of mine does not work.

    According to my initial thought, people don't even bother to try Spellseeker as it does nothing this...

    Re: [Deck] U/G Infect

    So apparently you play already 4 x Merchant Scroll but want more so you also want to play the 50% more expensive tutor which can't find your best pump spells? I'll pass.

    White splash is not a new thing. Rest in peace was almost mandatory if you wanted to beat lands back in the day and Swords has no drawback in this deck.

    Your threats get killed three turns before you have mana to cast this or in response to you casting it. There's literally a shitload of cards to use before Pattern even becomes a consideration. You...

    I have tested Gambit but it never did enough. That might hint that the whole proliferate idea is useless.

    My expectations rest on the fact that Revolutionary pseudo-proliferates pseudo-twice and...

    That's more of a modern tier card. After trying modern infect I also tried Distortion Strike in legacy back in the days but it's not what the deck really needs. If you really have slots for...

    In my book mulliganing in search of hymning yourself is not the way to beat their infinite card advantage. Apparently it doesn't work for batter-call-skull either since he/she is asking for help.

    Postboard you need to have a plan for Punishing Fire and Chalice. What exactly do you want to fow in the matchup? Generally you bring in 1-card answers to cards that you would need to fow in g1.

    For me heavy Lands presence was the reason I splashed white in the first place (RIP, StoP). Against BR reanimator it just happens to be too slow. If they don't have a fast reanimation they just make...

    Sorcery speed pump spells absolutely don't belong here. If it were instant it likely would have almost made it but not quite. The hexproof pump is more of a topic but it's still a bit awkward as it...
