Oh, I don't use ballista as my main wincon anymore. I added aetherflux reservoir because I wanted something that didn't use the graveyard. It also lets you win without Arcum, letting you play a kind...

Actually, winning without Arcanum is simple, just flute for trinket mage and fetch skullclamp. Then you can use clamp to loop retriever and junk diver for the win.

Have you tried running Containment Priest?

Back when Dark Petition was first spoiled I came up with a similar list aiming to abuse Gifts Ungiven as a storm engine, but ended up going in the complete opposite direction. Instead of a control...

Read the original post. He was responding to other people saying that delver wasn't that broken because of the drawback by claiming that a flying 3/2 is too strong to print regardless of any...

It's not an answer so much as the opinion of one person. He say's he feels it more red but offers nothing else to back that up. I still think Snappy fits blue's slice of the pie for the reasons I've...

If your argument hinges on Maro knowing what he's talking about then you've already lost. A good part of his job is to function as a (terrible) PR guy. He's well know for saying what he thinks people...

What are you talking about? The post above me stated exactly what? That delver should have been a 2/1 or 2/2? The point I was trying to make is that if it was, people would still complain about it by...

Which explains all those "Ban Circling Vultures" threads I'm always never seeing before.

People don't hate delver for being out of color, that's just always the first argument to come up after somebody has already decided they don't like a card for being good and blue because it's so...

This. I was also around for when they decided to ban dark rit instead of necro in original extended. The DCI really needs to be made up of a separate body of people who aren't attached to cards they...

The quote from the article says: "You'll notice that we haven't touched a blue card yet. When we got to this point and realized that blue was escaping unscathed, we knew we had to ban something, or a...

Go check out the original banned list explanation/announcement for Modern. They only got rid of Jace, the Mind Sculptor and Ancestral Vision because after making the list they realized there were no...

Hey Carsten, I really enjoyed your article. Have you tried testing Mycosynth Lattice? I'm not sure it's worth the extra mana, but it has some really interesting advantages over Liquimetal Coating....

If the point is that you're only going to be playing two-mans when you know exactly what you're going up against, then you can make multiple lists tailored to beat specific decks and not have to...

I assumed he was an Ewok. :P

I must be the only who actually likes TNN, or at least doesn't mind him all that much. It might be because while everybody else's first impression seems to have been a comparison to Progenitus, the...

Sure. You could also go for Dark Ritual instead. All of the different possible lines is exactly why it's so important for somebody who's learning the deck to always be on the lookout for the most...

^ This is excellent advice. It can be exhausting to try and think through all of the possible lines every time you go to combo off during a long tournament, but with a lot of goldfishing/practice it...

Yes. Nothing you said is incorrect. But I've only really been trying to make one point. That green has both the largest total part of the color pie and the most color bleed. Where as most of blues...

It's kind of my whole point. Naturalize is a functional reprint of one of he most iconic white cards in Disenchant. Claim, along with Krosan Grip are both arguably better at doing things that green...

Snappy and Clique are both very good cards, but I wouldn't call either of them unblue. Blue gets flash creatures, high power low toughness fliers, and actually does sometimes get to move cards...

This is legacy. Yes, the only green cards I mentioned to have any real format presence are Xantid Swarm, Ulvenwald Tracker, and Scavenging Ooze but given that probably about 100 non-land cards see...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

What about something like this:

Mana
4x City of Traitors
4x Island
4x Seat of the Synod
4x Great Furnace
4x Mox opal

Blue? Really? How can people still justify saying things like this? Green is actively getting new printings in a larger share of the color pie then blue ever did in it's entire history combined....
