    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    In general, what is the SB strategy against UWR delver (with cruise)? I feel like it's going to be a really tough matchup and going all grindy isn't much of an option due to TNN applying unanswerable...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    My bad, I guess I misread that conversation. Limitations of Twitter, I suppose (or limitations of my cognitive abilities. You say tomato...). Thanks for clarifying.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Yeah. Jarvis Yu and Ross Merriam said similar things on Twitter. Also, they're anti-Ruric overall. Basically, go for the combo if you can (being wary of firestorm), otherwise go the control route...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I honestly hadn't thought about it, so that's my fault. To answer the question though, I'm wouldn't have been able to activate it immediately and assume I would have died the next turn. I always kind...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I recently played against Dredge and felt both helpless and lost. I lost to a turn 1 LED-fueled debacle and then g2 he was slow and I had a turn 3 NO that wouldn't be lethal (off by 2 points) with a...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I wanted to include an update. I'm up to 34 matches with the deck (24-10) and have been running hot, winning 11 of my last 12. I've cut blue entirely and have had no concerns. I really like having...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    While the mystic remora idea has done merit, the underground sea plan does not. IMO. You have 20 lands and 6 already don't support G turn 1. Adding another is moving into some scary territory.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I think people should stop viewing Probe as deck thinning that can sometimes help me out by telling me what my opponent has and start viewing it as a spell that can give me vital information about my...

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    Re: gitaxian probe, against decks with counters, would you hold it until your presumed go-off turn to make sure you're safe or burn it early to dig and get an early look at their hands?

    So how many WRP are you on (main and SB)?

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    I've been on vacation for the past week, but was able to sneak some MTGO in at nights. I'm now about a month into learning Legacy and more importantly, ELVES! and have a solid 25 matches under my...

    If they're targeting the Prowess instead of the Symbiote we're probably in good shape.

    Re: [DTB] Elves!

    It was a card I found while passing time in Gatherer one day and wanted to try it against removal heavy decks. I've only drawn it once so far and that was while 'going off' so it was irrelevant. It...

    Hello - I'm Paul Jordan. I've been playing Magic for 20 years. I have a wife and 2 kids, so my playing time is much less than it was during college. I play limited almost exclusively these days, but...
