Alright, Ill give it a try. Thanks for the input. I guess I really only have to stall long enough to resolve a NO. Then Ill win anyway

I agree , i tried to protect my counter top, but its really difficult. I usually sided them out for teegs (trying to act aggro like) and it helped me quite a bit. I was shutting off alot of their...

So, I played Pro Bant w/ top and I have been having trouble with Landstill. I drew with one and lost to one. At one point I got up to 45 and he was down to 6 and he somehow came out of it, to win. ...

Oh my god... how are these player in the top 8?

Why is counterbalance 'banned' for this deck? I realize that it is suboptimal against some decks but it is back breaking in others. What do you do aagainst Ant or T.E.S without balance? I mean I...

Here is the list he played:

Maindeck:

Creatures
2 Figure Of Destiny
4 Grim Lavamancer
4 Kird Ape
2 Knight Of The Reliquary
4 Qasali Pridemage

Yeah, I just got rid of my baneslayers for Goyfs and then bought forces and shit, I currently have Bant Top put together.

I have recently went through this same dilema, I was going to build Stax or Merfolk and then I decided to dump my Type 2 stuff(having Baneslayers helped) and get legacy stuff as it will be a...

Was my first time at the shop, and i have to say by far the best shop i've been too. The A/C, the prices on the merchandise, oh and taking first wasn't to bad either :wink: . If the next tourney is...

Ill be there with 4-5

Can you post an updated list of your deck?

I am !

Yes this is a late game deck, But the problem is getting to the game. Once that happens you should win

I agree wastelands, are just faster. They help keeping TA off Double Black as well. And I have played games against them where dropping a sea, keeps them on land screw for many turns.

I would rather bring in Runed Halo and Meddling mage over counterbalance. counterbalance is awesome but it requires top. Where as Halo or MM requires just one card to be effective.

Although...

Alright thank you for the speedy response.

I have Humility in play and my opponent has Wonder. Do the creatures have flying or not?

I could see how relic would be useful in the main, but the problem is what would you cut from the main for it. I mean you already have 3 wraths, EE, and humility to deal with those creatures.

Idk, although testing is required it seems like you are pushing to hard to make it work. You are trying to fit it in by cutting the consistancy of the deck and i think that is a huge mistake. But...

@ Gustha If you notice my list i don't play black for vindicate (due to not having them or the black lands) so for right now i like humility.

I plan on attending this with about 3-4 or more.

I play 2 humility MB, it is redic. against any deck with creatures. It makes you elspeth tokens, Mishra's Factory, Decree tokens all superior to any one else. It should be MB imo.

Post you list please?

I first started out with the same thoughts as you. I was playing no fetchies/duals. And i played back to basics, but the fact is the reason you play red spash is to exponentially improve some match...

What would you run in the 2 elspeth slots? I have 3 wrath effects. I might put FoF in those slots. Idk tho. And I will throw in a trop to then.
