Any update?

When does the Legacy event start on Saturday?

I think sphere effects are overrated. I played them main for a long time (over punishing fires) on MTGO, and they were pretty good. Eventually, I concluded that they were only really strong against...

If I played in a tournament today I would play:

4 Dark Depths
1 Forest
2 Ghost Quarter
1 Glacial Chasm
4 Grove of the Burnwillows
1 Horizon Canopy
3 Maze of Ith
3 Rishadan Port

I don't play sphere effects anymore.

I agree with you. I just think that Titania has enough potential for me to switch out my 3rd sb Titan for a Titania for a tournament, even though it's likely incorrect.

Also, to the Green Sun's...

I disagree on the first point. It's cheaper than Titan and comes with the possibility of winning the game very quickly. For example, it might be better than Titan against Sneak and Show, because if...

Is this a typical entree fee/ prize structure for a Legacy IQ? Is there a larger prize pool if attendance hits some threshold?

Proposed name for the deck: "No Gamble, No Future." Thoughts?

For a while now, I've played 3 Primeval Titan (1: possibly switching 1 to a Titania soon to try it out, 2: I know playing 3 Titans is uncommon) and 0 Seismic Assault sideboard. One important thing to...

That's incorrect. They're both win conditions, but Seismic Assault is primarily good against Blood Moon decks that don't attack your graveyard, and Primeval Titan is good against decks that attack...

1: The card is way too narrow.
2: Generally, non-land cards in the deck need to have a very high impact to be included since one of the main advantages of playing the deck is that you get to "draw"...

Does anyone playing the RG version have any insights on beating Sneak and Show (with Blood Moon in the sideboard) at a decent rate?

Your first point is incorrect.

Look at round one pairings for the Legacy Open in Providence, which you can find at this link: http://www.starcitygames.com/events/070614_providence.html. Both...

After thinking about it a bit, I agree with this line. Doubling the speed of our clock with FoW backup likely restricts our opponent's ability to play his game more than countering the elf. We can...

My GP Richmond list was something like:

23 Island

1 Emrakul

2 Jace Belaren
4 Howling Mine
4 Temple Bell (Dictate of Kruphix seems like a clear upgrade)

I played this deck at GP Richmond and a good deal leading up to GP Richmond.

1: I don't think the deck is very good.
2: I think Mind Stone is a great card in the deck, and I haven't seen in...

I forced the elf pitching delver. On my turn, I drew a fetchland, wasted Bayou, and cast Ponder. Ponder revealed Deathrite Shaman, Lightning Bolt, and a fetchland, and I didn't shuffle, setting...

I'm a bit confused. How is it a four turn clock? Given that Tormod mentions casting Ponder, I have to assume he advocates pitching Delver to the FOW.

I played against Elves (Julian23) in the finals of an 8 man online, testing out the Eric Rill version of the deck with relevant sideboard cards: 2 Forked Bolt, 2 Grafdigger's Cage, 2 Spell Pierce and...

Why do you have 4 Abrupt Decay in your board if you never side in more than 3 cards?

I've started playing a slight variation on Eric Rill's SCG Milwaukee list. What do you guys think about forked bolt vs Grim Lavamancer in the sideboard?

6/21 is a Saturday, right? There seems to be a problem.

To those responding to my comments, reread the sections of the primer that I pointed out. Based on reading them, what do you think those sections advocate? I am all for careful play. For example,...

You say that "doing things for the most time value is a very crucial aspect of playing this deck." There is a big difference between doing that and playing carefully to avoid confusion. For example,...
