    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    I'm crying with happiness right now. After 5 years of agony, I feel like justice has finally been served. What's coming is the Legacy I know and love, and I'll thoroughly enjoy every single minute of...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Spiritkeeper was never good in the previous meta because Miracles either removed it from the game or tucked it to the bottom of your library, never killing it and getting the trigger. It's better now...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    I'm pretty sure this deck has no issue demolishing MUD any time of the day, unless they get their Christmasland turn 3 Ugin explosive start. Plow/Revoke Metalworker, deny their mana, and Flickerwisp...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    The Batterskull should be the first thing to cut, then Brimaz/Mindcensor/SotL if you run them in the maindeck, and then comes Thalia. But first you should consider what to actually bring in....

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    The thing is, the matchups where the opponent plays DRS you won't be able to keep them in check postboard with Revoker, because of all the sweepers they will run against you. Revoker is suboptimal...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Interesting list, but I see some glaring problems about that deck:

    1. Hierarch doesn't add red mana for the Magus and especially Sudden Demise. KotR + Vial is not going to be enough to reliably...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Yead I already have a Ghostly Prison. Cataclysm doesn't work because they keep Mentor, a basic land and a Top. And he rebuilds way faster than me.

    In monowhite I can have a sideboard Moat but in...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    That involves resolving a Magus and keeping him alive. All Miracles has to do is resolve a Mentor and they have countermagic/Countertop backup. They have card filtering and we don't. Teeg doesn't do...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    It would seem that DTT is here to stay, along with the 3 big blue decks that spam it.

    It also would seem that Death and Taxes has pretty dismal chances against Miracles when Monastery Mentor is...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    It's really good depending in what creatures you play in your maindeck. Works best in non green versions of the deck, especially WR because as you said it has more commonality in creature types....

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    While I do think Teeg is a necessary card right now if you're playing Wg, I wouldn't go so far as to say Teeg solves all the CMC4+ problems. Given the low density of such cards in the vast majority...

    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    We are going back to the TC meta, just that this time it's DTT the card that's warping the format and the deck strategies. If you guys look at some of those Grixis decks they can power up a DTT as...

    I've been playing the green splash for a while, with a couple tweaks and stuff. The green version is significantly better against decks like Patriot, Esper, RUG, Miracles, etc, blue based decks that...

    If you want a CA generator that dumps creatures into play from the library just play Yisan. He costs 1 mana less, is a creature himself, and is legendary.

    Against most Stoneblade decks you usually side out StP since their creatures have extremely low value once they hit the battlefield, and you can't target TNN with StP. You side in RIP against DRS,...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    If you REALLY want a -1/-1 effect that doesn't affect you (well, just the Revokers), Holy Light is the most sensible choice. But again, I don't think there's a need for such an effect in the 75.
