Allen has a brilliant piece of sideboard mirror tech in Walking Ballista.
With the fair drs blue decks sitting at the top of the Legacy metagame currently, the builds of D&T cutting the sfm package make a lot of sense to me. We should have a better chance in those matchups...
What are the best sideboard cards/plans vs aluren? I've found the matchup to be tough post board when they bring in multiple deluges and other removal to answer revoker and sanctum prelate.
@iatee does cataclysm really win games from behind? I've always found it great as sealing up games I was already ahead in vs miracles or shardless. casting it when the game is even also can be pretty...
Gideon seems like it could be pretty sweet in the board for Miracles and Shardless BUG. Against Shardless its a threat that they can't Decay, and you could also just emblem if you're worried about...
I was already thinking about adding 1 Sea Gate Wreckage, so perhaps that's a worthy colorless source.
Warping Wail's dissynergy with thailia concerns me though. Boarding it in against a matchup...
Has anyone felt cataclysm be way more awkward to fit into a gameplan lately (in builds using lots of wingmares)? I'm thinking winter orb might be a more reliable additional mana denial plan to...
Has anyone accumulated much experience with Vryn Wingmare? My inclination is to think jamming 4 is correct and that's the version I currently have put together, but I haven't had the chance to play...
On first impression, the flying seems enormously significant to me, giving another creature that carries equipment well and also can trade with delver when needed. Replacing slots like brimaz and...
The Red splash continues to intrigue me. The way I see it from a high level perspective, is that it makes you way stronger against things like Shardless BUG and other 3 color strategies, as well as...
You're starting to sell me on this red splash, Hill Giant. I just dread the prospect of getting Imperial Recruiters (I only play in paper). Please keep posting testing results, everyone trying the...
I definitely admit that it can be nice to have against Elves, but their good draws are often going to make Avenger not matter at all. It just helps you beat their subpar draws. I also play 2 mirran...
Yeah, I've seen those builds. I just don't feel particularly motivated to warp the deck around trying to make arbiter good. Maybe someday I'll try one of those out, but I don't get as much time to...
I am testing a 1/1 split between anafenza and serra avenger. I've been less and less impressed with avenger as time goes on. An efficient beater just isn't enough in this deck. At least anafenza...
In my experience, the Tin Fins matchup is horrific for DNT as they are often just too fast to allow our interaction to matter. If we win the die roll game 1, hopefully we can squeak out games 1 and...
I am going to try a 1/1 split between this new lady and Serra Avenger. Avenger has been impressing me less and less lately.
As for the comment on wishing you could choose which creature you get...
Hey everyone, my name is Greg Schafer and I got 12th place at the SCG Open this past weekend in Indy. I wanted to post a reflection on the weekend, as this forum has definitely helped me improve...
I'm inclined to agree with this thinking about Cataclysm in the Elves matchup. Though I see you have 4 Flagstones in your recent version, presumably to maximize the effectiveness of Cataclysm, so...
@Bahra I'm curious about the matchups you like bringing in Ratchet Bomb for. Off the top of my head: TES, Belcher, Elves, and the mirror. I'm curious if I'm missing any that are less intuitive...
Seems like the time to switch brimaz back to mirran crusader. Also seems like spirit of the labyrinth is less needed now, and perhaps the 4th revoker can return to being the norm. In the sideboard,...
I managed to 4-0 my weekly Monday event with a list very similar to bahra's, but with an additional cataclysm to account for the amount of miracles locally. The maindeck priest seemed fine, and frees...
So, do people think Containment Priest is strictly a sideboard option? Its clearly potent against Elves, Reanimator, SnS, and Dredge. Against any fair deck with creatures it teams up with Flickerwisp...
Yeah, you're right Barbed Lightning. This is just a really confusing card.
Yeah, I find this pretty scary as well. It seems like Deathblade and UWR Delver would both love this card. Why must a new, powerful white 2 drop Human potentially harm, not help us?
Do you think that you'd alter your list at all for a large paper tournament (like GP NJ)?
