Pretty sure a good chunk of people still hate that card, Wizards of the Coast just managed to print something that makes 50% of matches miserable instead of the 10% of matches SNT ruins.

A more...

I like that the format is managed and regulated with an attempt to promote a variety of play styles, not just deck archetypes. Ramp, combo, tempo, aggro, control, midrange, engine, toolbox-if you...

I'm not too big on Terminus in Bant because (my a large margin) the biggest allure to run Bant is to play Hierarch. It's the glue that keeps together all of the other elements no matter what cards...

The play was legit-here is what happened:

Emrakul(s) hits the GY on the Nic Fit player's turn after a successfully named Cabal Therapy. Nic Fit player Extirpates Emrakul with the shuffle trigger...

Lighthouse is a cool card. It'll see standard play.

I do like how well measured and balanced all of the cycle of two-color utility lands turned out. Some are a bit off (the G/B one seems a little...

The idea of playing against Reanimator with Mystical Tutor and Mental Misstep is not very appealing. Those unbans would speed the format way up.

1) Combo decks that play Mystical Tutor and Mental...

Maverick, Blade Control, and RUG Delver lists have all been nearly equally represented since the banning of Mental Misstep and the release of Innistrad on TC Decks, and I really don't see any one...

Choke, and the Stoneblade players not respecting Choke.

Really guys is two SB disenchants and you keeping in one Force of Will asking all that much? Disenchant targets in the post-board matchup...

I think that's at the very least arguably true in the context of Vintage, but in a non-powered environment the other current Oath technology (Lab Maniac, Rune Scarred Demon especially) seems way...

Perish is easily the pick for the deck over Virtue's Ruin because of what it does for you in three other tier one matchups (where Virtue's Ruin is a real blank).



The Punishing Fire matchup is...

I think the big difference is the restriction on CMC that Ad Nauseam puts on a deck versus what you can play in an ANT deck. I think a Bargain deck would sport a stronger , diversified protection...

Consultation is the least dangerous card on that list of three. Gush is real real bad news, only the inexperienced thinks that card is safe justbecause it isn't coupled with Fastbond.

Speaking as someone who has played a lot of Vintage Fish decks since Pridemage was printed, it's really not enough vs. a blue-based Oath deck vs. GW. You basically have to have blue disruption in...

Show and Tell runs the high risk of:

- you just plopping in a Knight and then untapping and getting Karakas
- playing it on turn 2 on the draw, opponent puts in an extra land drop then resolves...

Oath is exceedingly degenerate asymmetrical hoser that is invalidates creature strategies. Current Dragon's Breath Emrakul/Rune Scarred Demon tech just make the whole thing even more awful.

There...

I can't speak for the Maverick decks, but the 2nd Jitte in the board for the mirror is a must (I would do the same in Maverick, maybe not some of the more other white-heavy equipment decks since you...

The stoneblade matchup still revolves around Mother of Runes sticking (almost impossible to win if you untap w/ Mother of Runes) , but Lingering Souls does provide reasonable blockers for Jace.
...

I've played a couple of matches on both sides of the Lingering Souls/Nic Fit equation, and with straight G/B it's pretty miserable. They get an entire air force with one card and it takes a Deed or...

I've never run less than two maindeck. Card is absurd. I even run a third in the board. Legacy is currently a format where you can profitably run maindeck Relic of Progenitus in decks that never want...

I kind of like Price of Progress' position in the current metagame. Two color decks can duck having many non-basics in play very easily, and PoP for 2 or 4 is not all that scary. Three color, 18-19...

I don't think most decks can afford to bring in card-negative gravehate like extractions in this matchup. I would bring in Spellbombs or Relics if I could, but you can easily find yourself a card or...

Instead of the pile of Zuran Orbs vs. Burn decks, you could always board in the entire Gigapede-Iona-Unburial Rites Intuition pile. You'd have to run a white source somewhere for the Unburial Rites...

Opal is very reliable on turn two, same with Dispatch.

I haven't tried the full set of Ornithopters AND Paradise Mantles yet, so I'll give them a go and see how they fit in. I do really like where...

I played about a ten matches of games with this on MODO today and came away with some impressions, mostly very positive. I had a very good record versus anything remotely fair, and made some changes...

Weirdly enough, this is exactly the kind of card I want for Vintage SFM decks (yes, it seems some fringe play there). Legacy has too many dudes that will just block.

It may be an interesting...
