It's challenging to teach over the internet, but it's how you cast the spells that helps in them losing the will to live. Your body language needs to convey that you're not here to win. You're not...

Opponent's losing the will to live is a valid win condition

Not sure why only 1 Factory. If you're worried about making BB, an equal number of Urborgs covers that.
Zero Wasteland is also strange, but if you're anticipating never seeing a Urza's Saga, then...

I watched this, Anvil seemed too cute. Chains would be good if he didn't face 4 non-blue decks. Not understanding the interaction and playing both with an empty hand was definitely the highlight.

I would be interested to know how many games the 20/20 won for him. No way to find the A or the B, seems like it would be a really scary threat your opponent would be occupied with handling,...

5 for 1 is misleading, I apologize.

I was counting in an opening hand/mulligan mindset of, "If 5 of 7 cards are these cards, then I can end the play with 2 cards in hand etc..."
You get a land in...

Hey we're agreeing more and more :D

I also think windmill slamming down Liliana of the Veil turn one is a bad play in the majority of situations. 4 for 1 is a bad trade, I agree. You could discard...

Okay, fair points.

So turn one we're optioned into committing 5 cards (Swamp, Dark Ritual, Phyrexian Arena, Grief & pitch) to their 1 card and now over the next 4 turns we've reach parity again,...

If you could expand on this I think it would be helpful. I'm understanding that we're casting this, trading a card in hand for +1 mana, to cast a CMC 2 or 3? So we're already past turn 1, the titular...

I guess we have common ground at least. Not sure in what gamestate you think a reactive instant is going to line up to a proactive sorcery to produce any meaningful comparison. I wonder how many...

I've been holding back as everybody has gone bonkers over this card, wondering what I'm missing. People keep talking the the Evoke cost is nothing or otherwise inconsequential, "look at all the black...

Sho, is Liliana Waker of the Dead just because we can't run LotV #5 or do you have any special purpose otherwise?

Can't comment on your meta, but Ashiok is borderline essential for me. Last night...

I didn't find Chain of Smog helpful at all. Pox already runs too many narrow cards that risk being dead against an unfavorable matchup that adding a borderline do-nothing card is just too much dead...

Underworld Dreams isn't to combat Uro, just provides a clock that gets faster the more they try and dig out from. Off an early Dark Ritual it lets you play the Pox game while also winning the game, a...

A big 0-4 oof last night.

Two decks were value piles with a resolved Sylvan Library on their side doing heavy lifting. Jace the Mind Sculptor and Dack Fayden both also made appearances and caused...

I've currently dropped Eliminate, but kept the Murderous Rider.
I'm apprehensive in Bloodchief's Thirst, 4 mana is asking a lot when the Planeswalker I'm killing the most is Karn now, almost always...

But Sho that's hard :<

I am not running it currently.
I would need to adjust out of combat win conditions to avoid self inflicted losses (besides the usual ones). I currently have only a single Cursed Scroll, and no way...

Went 3-1 again tonight with the same old list.

Played against TinFins that transformed into Doomsday and lost in 3.
Beat Eldrazi in 3 with Nether Spirit being the bestest blocker evar with...

Here is a recent video of me playing old fuddy Pox to middling success. I still think the deck has answers to just about everything, but with exactly...

I imagine you'd want to lose Smallpox then, since you'd need to consistently hit 3 mana and stay there, plus the whole sacrifice a creature part.

Cling to Dust is good.
It provides incidental graveyard hate while also cantripping and provides late stalled board state options to maintain positive pressure.
Life gain is also welcome if you're...

Any problems in particular you looking to solve?
Nothing came that screamed Pox to me.

My playgroup has been building to beat Oko without anyone actually running many Oko decks, so it's difficult to state definitively, but I feel now more is the time for Nether Spirit to really shine....

I have 3 copies of The Elderspell split in my 75 which is pretty clean.
Having 8 Planeswalkers of my own helps make it complete as an effect.
