    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Reid Duke had some nice videos on cfb, as mentioned above. If you're the other elves player at 15:50, which of Reid's cards do you Thoughtseize away? Why?

    edit: It's in the third match, here.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    As we think about sideboarding, how should we be thinking about Thoughtseize and Cabal Therapy? Against which decks should we prefer one over the other or none at all? I find that these can be real...

    Hear hear to high hopes! There's no reason that you or another elves pilot can't win the whole thing--though I would expect to see an uptick in the cheap red/black mass removal aimed at our pointy...

    I wish I were going to Vegas, but I can't get away. I know that many of us who can't go would love to see as many reports as people are willing to write up. So please, don't let what happens in...

    So, what does that look like specifically MB and SB?

    Any links to this? Was there camera coverage or was it just reports? I'd appreciate anything you can share.

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    How are you all dealing with R/G lands? This match-up has been a real drag for me. Yes, Deathrite Shaman and Scavenging Ooze help, as does Surgical Extraction. But, I've lost the last 8 of 9...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Yeah, it's unlikely green will get this effect.

    I take your point about B. TNN and tokens can be a problem, but are they the match-ups where we struggle. There are lots of individual x/2...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    Looks like we had a rough GP. But we'll come back.

    I want to try a little thought experiment. -Given the kinds of match ups we face and where our strength already lie, I'm curious which of the...

    Re: [Primer] Elves!

    These are good ideas. As Noctalor said Gaea's Herald is already around. It might be interesting to see an uncounterable elf that does something else, as well.

    Losing to miracles is getting old. I find it irksome to have to dedicate so much of my attention, sideboard, and game time (which drags on, especially when they use SDT so often and soooo sloooowly)...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Sorry to be away for so long. I suppose that's another way to look at my question. There are lots of threats to the creatures on our board. Are we more likely to run into targeting spot removal or...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    What tends to be the bigger threat for us, spot removal or mass removal? I realize that spot removal only affects one or two guys at a time, so one might easily conclude that mass removal is worse...

    Why is it going to be a thing? Well, because it is an effective card against many legacy decks and provides flexibility. While it is not the MOST effective...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I know there was some discussion on this a few pages back that dismissed it, but I think Warping Wail is going to be a thing that hampers our win percentages against some decks.

    It is nice to see this deck back in the DtB section, where it belongs.

    In thinking about shortcomings/challenges of the deck, what kinds of cards would we like to see WotC print? For instance,...

    Man, I'd sure like to see a Planeswalker that helped our deck. I've tried most of the green Planeswalkers in our deck and they are typically not worth it. They just don't resonate with the vectors...

    Sorry to be such a dork, but what does he mean here? What does it mean that storm combos right through it? Is it that a (1) tax is not enough?
