Welcome fellow Board Control player!
I've been running 1 TinyKarn as a wishboard engine. I'm down to 1 Bridge main since he represents one for a slight delay. Being able to have access to 1...
I'd have to assume that the UBr version is going to be more powerful with Whir - the UB version doesn't have nearly as many cheap artifacts (ahem, Mox Diamond...) sitting around.
'Pet' cards like Chains or The Abyss are certainly not essential - you have a couple of flexible slots for the effect of your choice. You could run a Damnation in place of The Abyss and never notice...
I think my biggest problem with the Sagas (and this was discussed HEAVILY during the preview stage) is that they remove the versatility of Planeswalkers. There are specific actions that have a...
Small note, and apologies for the doublepost in my own thread, but I have briefly updated the OP with my current 75, along with a few notes regarding the fact that legacy is different today than it...

I'm confused by this - what is 'Pure Aggro'? Because if stuff like Stompy, Affinity, and Goblins doesn't qualify, I'm not sure what you mean.
No, pretty sure the point of this thread at this point is to provide a Dumpster for certain posters to live in so they don't clutter up virtually every other constructive discussion on this site with...
Why, yes, now that you mention it...
I don't know if 'better' is the right word, but it's damn good. I've had 2x in the SB for a long time, and it serves double duty as FoW 5-6 and for...
Played TPSs list from MTGO today, -1 Flusterstorm Main +Pierce (I am short Flusters...) It's dumb how clean the list is right now, assuming you don't have to worry about more than 1 DnT match-ups.

The only thing *everyone* seems to agree about in the Post-DRS meta is that anyone who has ever thought that Reanimator was cool will be trying to force it. Leyline has seen a ~40% price bump online...
Most of the time in UB, I have less than 5 artifacts in play unless I am going off with Thopters or playing to a corner-case Tezz ult.
If you want to flip it, you can, but your board state is...
I'm confused, I thought I logged into The Source, but all people can talk about is a bunch of cards that cost more than 3, most of them non-blue. That doesn't sound like Legacy-viable to me... :cool:...
So, like 1998 or something? :cool:
- It costs 4, so it's competing with stuff like Tezz AOB and JTMS.
- It takes quite a long time to actually flip.
- When it does actually flip, it... helps you have more mana to cast stuff....
QFT. Unless you are counting to 10 Storm, Brainstorm should be more of a mechanical process than a thinking one.
And, more importantly, I don't think Chalice-on-One is even in the Top 5 plays you could be doing in Legacy currently. We've been talking locally how little true tempo there is in the meta right now...
The danger of 'creative' things. ;)
I would certainly float this in the Omni thread, but I really don't see the value of adding an extra step to 'just win the game already' if you have a live Omni.
I have some experience with the so-called 'Sol-land' manabases (see the Tezz primer in my sig... :cool:) and it really all comes down to what you want to do with the 2 mana. In Legacy, Veins first...
Undomain has far more experience w/ the Grixis build than me, so he's authoritative, but IMO the only reason to play the Grixis build over the UB one is that Diamonds give you more explosive draws....
I am starting to catch up on Modern (thanks GP Trios for generating interest in me playing Legacy for teams... :p) and I was ecstatic to see that PSully was doing commentary again. Between the Bingo...
I can think of a 'Hatecard' for Show and Tell in every color, including a number of colorless answers.
But I suspect the purpose of your question is different entirely:
Must be nice to live in a world where you are the only one in the room playing Wasteland... :wink:
Second'd - a 'diverse' metagame is one where there are as many people incentivized to play dedicated combo as there are control or aggro. 3 different MidrangeGoodCards.dec are not automatically more...
