Basically all LD is dead late in the game unless you're dedicating so much of the deck to it that you can keep them from stabilizing for multiple turns.

So, if you want to run Sinkhole and...

Do you not have trouble with people blowing up the equipment, leaving you with just an extra 1/2?

Read the last couple pages of this thread, posts like http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/showthread.php?2597-%5BDeck%5D-Deadguy-Ale-%28B-w-Confidant%29&p=481404&viewfull=1#post481404 should help you...

I would consider cutting the following:

Elspeth/Persecutor: you really don't want 6 cards at cmc 4. The double white in Elspeth's cost is going to be a pain to manage, but she is really good. ...

AFAIK, I'm the only person running the Depths/Mage combo in Deadguy. For those that don't like that, I'd suggest putting in 3x Abyssal Persecutor and 3x Cabal Therapy instead. I felt like Wasteland...

Nighthawk and Hymn should also be auto-includes.

Depths/Mage is surprisingly decent. Around here my only opportunity to play the deck is in Vintage tournaments, so there aren't as many StP/PtEs running around, but Wasteland and counters are...

Here's my most recent list, an attempt at a hybrid between the Gate and Deadguy:


4 Dark Confidant
4 Innocent Blood
4 Vampire Nighthawk
4 Gatekeeper of Malakir
4 Swords to Plowshares
4...

@Deviruchi - That sounds way more like the rock than Deadguy Ale to me. The strategies are similar but Deadguy tends to forego the green splash for fatties/deed in favor of consistency with a...

Anyone in here keeping an eye on the thread for The Gate? Zoo and other fast aggro seems to be our weak point, but is one of the best matchups for the Gate. To sum it up for those that haven't been...

Try out Inquisition of Kozilek instead of Thoughtseize. I've been testing with it and it seems much better against aggro decks. Other than that I would find room for the last Hymn, maybe take out a...

LD just isn't as effective as it used to be. You've got LED/Chrome Mox/Mox Diamond seeing a lot of play, better draw manipulation via Top/Cantrips, things like crucible, counterbalance, and spell...

So I've been trying to test out a few changes, mostly trying to improve the Zoo matchup, and have come to a few preliminary conclusions:

1. Nyxathid is totally underwhelming in play. Even if you...

Gentoo. MWS seems to be working fine, but MWSPlay has all sorts of problems.

Ok so I finally got around to installing MWS via Wine, and everything seems great except that MWSPlay crashes ALL THE TIME. Still, better than nothing I guess.

Realized after I posted that I already run plenty of Lands hate. Cyrus you might be interested in this deck:...

If the changes really do impact the popularity of AnT and Reanimator, I'll probably be dropping Thoughtseize for Inquisition of Kozilek, which is way better in the Zoo matchup. Might also find some...

Iare: are you running it with Wine?

@Cyrus: You should really check out the Rock thread and post your list there too then. They may have better advice for Bgw lists.

@Iare: Why splash red for 6 spells here? Bolt is always nice...

KotR has been in The Rock forever, it was Rock lists here that prompted me to buy them back when they were $1 each



Honestly I totally agree with this. I haven't posted any results with the...

Congratulations, you've managed to build The Rock, with an even less reliable manabase. If you really want to run that deck, I'd swap out Gatekeepers for Edicts in a heartbeat, and probably still...

Reanimate seems to have bad synergy with Tombstalker. I win as many games off that guy as I do off Depths. How do you find Nyxathid? I thought about picking some up but wasn't sure what I would...

I think any deck playing black needs to have 4 Leyline of the Void in the sideboard, it's relevant against too much of the format not to.

I don't run Urborgs for a couple reasons. Mainly it's because I don't have any and I'm trying not to buy any cards at the moment. Second, it's Legendary so you either run 4 to have a good chance of...

I just want to chime in to say that I just won a small Vintage tournament with my Legacy version of Deadguy running the Hexmage/Depths combo. I think this version of the deck may merit some...
