    Re: [Deck] The Four Horsemen - Orb/Monolith

    * necromantic powers intensifies *

    Someone made a post on Reddit yesterday revealing how the combo can now (with a few tweaks) be Legacy legal!

    Basically you swap the previous combo of Emrakul,...

    Hello friends.
    Me and a couple of friends designed this piece of art for shits and giggles and played it at two local events before realising it's trash. [emoji23]

    Re: [Deck] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I would keep in the blind G1, mulligan if I know the matchup and keep it after sideboarding. Not sure if that's right though.

    Yup. I saw those lines as well. Interesting that you play the main deck Tendrils, I might try that out.

    You got it. I took a long, hard look at it and I can't seem to find another line than exactly this one, not even one with Laboratory Maniac.

    Re: emidln's tendrils lists

    It's turn two. You've played a land. Storm is two and you have resolved Doomsday. Life is at 10.

    To the left is your hand. To the right are your options.

    Win this turn.

    Yup. Sometimes no matter how much preparations you make it just does not matter, but great job anyway! :)

    The Surgical Exctraction seems counter-intuitive since you will probably also want to bring in Ground Seal in the same mathups.

    Night's Whisper usually comes in against control and heavy discard decks, I have never had the joy of wishing for it though. :)

    As Oleg hinted at, the Burning Wish is primarily to battle Surgical Extractions (and other pin-point Tutor hate) post board. It has been great.

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils) Storm Combo

    I couldn't agree more with this. I especially like spreading out the bounce spells since they tend to have very different targets. While I usually take in the whole sweep against decks like Stax or...

    For the straight Grixis variants I currently run this sideboard to great success:

    2 Fatal Push
    2 Surgical Extraction
    1 Cabal Therapy
    1 Night's Whisper
    2 Chain of Vapor
    1 Echoing Truth

    Misty Rainforests must have been a mistake when Scalding Tarn can also get the Badlands.

    Playing Burning Wish without Rite of Flame seems so sketchy. I've...

    I think my main point was that it gives incremental advantage. I see it more as pseudo-card advantage than anything else.
    An extra mana here, an extra Deathrite activation there, the opponent having...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I think what makes Scryb Ranger so good is the unexpected factor it brings to a game. Given that, the matchups where it shines is against non-linear strategies where incremental advantage is key.

    Baral will sadly never be good enough, likely because of the same reasons Jace, Vryn's Prodigy will never see enough play. The reason is Karakas.

    What surprises me the most is the decision on what lands to play. You're playing more white spells than usual, with triple Prelate and a Gideon in the main, but you've upped the number of forests....

    I think I'm going to give the multiple Prelates a shot. It sounds like it might just give a lot of random game when we would otherwise just fold.
