    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I think SOFI always in the main, and if you're playing 3 Equips, then you can play a white sword in the main as well. War and Peace/Light and Shadow both offer advantages and disadvantages.

    I...

    I think we're considering that the new Thalia is going to be excellent, and the cuttable slots are basically SFM and original Thalia. I basically wouldn't want to cut anything else. It does raise the...

    Please post a photo of the decklist in question, otherwise, how can I trust you? Was the BOP beta?

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I think a 3/3 split of the old and new Thalia is ballbusting. I would always run 4/1 split of protections, its one of the best things this deck can do.

    Good against Drazi and Miracles. Can't argue.

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I feel like Id always want 4 Momma. I may personally hedge on 3/2 DRS/Noble to ensure acceleration against the other DRS deck (dont want to get greased too often).

    Id personally play 2 sylvans...

    Safekeeper is excellent, I've always enjoyed him.

    Confidant just generally isn't needed, and you don't have the slots.

    Yeah, Sigarda or Titania seem better. Gitrog is better in a Loam variant, I think.

    4 Windswept Heath

    Not sure I like Maze right now. Almost would rather play Ghost Quarter and combat Eldrazi.

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I think a 3/2 or 2/3 split (or 2/2/1) split of Noble/DRS/BOP is enough ramp, since you also have GSZ on 0 as well as a line. I don't think you need a ton more.

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Choke is a real card with all their Seas and stuff.

    Having a 4-turn time bomb of a Draw 3 is pretty good. It's why I've suggested Painful Truths in this deck, but I'm not sure it's the right fit....

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Ooze is huge in controlling their Goyfs in that matchup, and Sword of Feast and Famine, if you're playing it, is the trump. I like Scryb for sneaking past Strix if they're still playing it.

    It's an excellent all-star. I like it against Miracles for Top (or Jace), I like it against Sneak for Sneak, Vial, etc.

    Sure, but you can also run trumps like Sylvan, Choke/Tsunami, Grip, and Needle in addition to Teeg. Recall that if you land Teeg, you have about 6 ways to protect him, and equipment goes a long way...

    Also, I think Painful truths is fine, but costing 4 and not winning the game is harsh. I like Sylvan's repeatability, but I could easily see throwing 1-2 in to test and see where it takes us. What...

    Forgot to say that I did give it a run, but Game 1 against Miracles still always feels bad. Need more card draw. Post board isn't terrible.

    Safekeeper is actually quite insane, especially against Miracles and it can be great against other Storm decks and OmniTell. In the fair matchups, he's also quite a beating. Putting your Miracles...
