Ermmmm...No

If you're having trouble with fish and/or your meta is full of Vengevines, Swarm maindeck is GOLDEN.

My rule of thumb is that if I need a piece to win this turn, I mainphase brainstorm (even without fetch). If I need two, I don't. It has been working well so far.

Regarding Duress, it depends on...

Hummmmm


I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon. In fact, it looks like Wizards won't be printing ANYTHING that helps combo in a long time. Yeah, I know that they printed Ad Nauseam...

^^ True.

I don't know if Hunting Pack is a good idea, but some fresh air in this thread is welcome, instead of going over and over on the same discussions.

Yes, I cut a Chrome mox for an extra land. At first it was Undiscovered Paradise, but when testing showed that it was quite shitty, it was changed to Scrubland. And so far it has been working nicely.

If you have trouble getting your white mana, you can always cut a rainbow land and put a Scrubland (or maaaybe a Tundra, depending on your fetches), to fetch when needed.

Agreed with Cook. In my experience, Wishing for something to kill their dudes (other than a single hatebear) is a position were you don't want to be, and usually means that you're going to die no...

It seems that you should play the UB version then, as you're disliking the red part of the deck (and Chrome Mox). There's a primer here, by Arix Lax.

So far, while I haven't tested it yet, I'm not...

Well, probably because Chrome Mox sucks hard. On the rare occasion I have Mox Diamond on my opening hand (or pre-AdN), it will almost always be better than a Chrome, because I don't need to sacrifice...

Well, I've been playing with one diamond for quite some time and I've Never been dissapointed with it. I usually only draw it post-AdN, when it is stellar if you're low on life. I haven't tried the...

In case the opponent has Meddling Mage, or something like that.

Any thoughts on Leonin Arbiter, the new hatebear? For reference:

Leonin Arbiter 1W
Players can't search libraries. Any player may pay 2 to ignore this effect until end of turn.
2/2

I'd rather play with chant/silence than thoughtseize because:

- Enables the IGGY plan against blue decks
- Can be used to thwart other combo decks
- Can be used to "timewalk" fast aggro decks...

Agreed with that (I assume you're meaning Burning Wish here).

Regarding the ritual vs. cantrip issue, I'd rather play 8 cantrips + 8 rituals than 12 cantrips + 4 rituals. Rituals >> Cantrips, given that what you usually need to find with cantrips are rituals...

Well, last tournament I had a draw while playing against Solidarity. Long time to shuffle + long time to think can end in a draw sometimes...

As for the Opal, I can see it as a 1-of, replacing one...

Erm...No. IT requires you to be hellbent. There are 1-ofs to provide redundant solutions to hate that, in turn, are no susceptible to cards like Meddling Mage.

For example: Krosan Grip and Wipe...

Yes, after testing it today in a 32-man tourney, I didn't use it a single time. I finished 5th, losing to merfolk and drawing with solidarity...
Any tips on how to beat the fish? It seems like the...

Question: In a combo heavy meta, does Sadistic Sacrament earn a spot in the side?

Did you see the new white Leyline? I don't know if it will see play, but...it screws Tendrils pretty hard. Not EtW though.
