    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I would have to say the bonus of SoLS that I like the most is the returning of creatures. Taking back a grunt someone has countered or that died to itself is a plus I wouldn't want to be without. I...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Finn: I don't want to make this argumentative, as everyone has their own preference for cards etc. I like to think I play the deck very well, as i have top 8'd with it multiple times and only losing...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I can't say that I agree with you %100 on path. I ran it this past weekend as a 2-of in my sb and I absolutely loved it. Most decks can survive off of 2-3 mana and once the late game gets going them...

    There are so many decks that win by attacking harrier still serves a strong purpose, at least for me anyway. He is generally the first to come out against some decks, but he holds the opponent at bay...

    I think I've found a blend I'm happy with. I keep my 1'drops at 10 and gain stonecloaker and the new bears:

    11 plains
    4 karakas
    3 wasteland
    4 rishadan port

    4 mother of runes

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Crusader seems really good. If you have equipment. He still gets removed easily enough with burn, or stp. If I were to run him, I wouldn't be taking out grunt, or avenger. I would drop some of the...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I can't see a creature that just gets in for damage replacing either flickerwisp or grunt. Grunt is just too good to not run. Sure there are times when he lives for just a turn or two, but late game...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I would not replace SOLS with any equipment. The lifegain is beneficial, and returning a creature is game winning most of the time. Also, pro white is huge since tons of decks run swords to...

    Normally there is a bunch of bant, a smattering of combo, enchantress x2 or more regularly, goblins, and a landstill player or two... It's pretty hard to prepare for it all... Facing combo is one of...

    In all honesty, even with canonist, halo, tutor, you still have a TOUGH matchup against combo. In "theory" you will see a decline in combo and reanimator in metas where it is played because the lists...

    Im not so sure a white pridemage would be the best bet for the deck... Oring, although sometimes lacking, is a necessary evil in the deck. The times when tricks with vial/flickerwisp actually come up...

    If you are looking for a good 2cc card run serenity. Against enchantress if they have streling grove, your only target is grove, and if they have 2 you are screwed. Serenity is a turn slow, but it...
