I have not played the fishfolk in a while but the chalice lists have been putting up the best results so I imagine that is where you want to start. I think for the most part the following are pretty...

Daze is a fine card, however I would not play dazes if you are running the 4 chalice maindeck version of merfolk.

Huh? This is the entire purpose of having a sideboard. If you are just going to concede matchups where you still have a chance of winning with a few additional cards what is the point of even playing...

For the big mana decks (lands, 12 post, MUD) the plan is to normally it's hit a few of their key pieces enough to buy some time and hopefully kill them before their big pieces come online. Just play...

From my experience the problematic matchups tend to be ones running non blue or blue decks running sfm/tnn. We also struggle a lot with decks that just play a large amount of removal, although TNN...

So from the sounds of it, there is an undefeated merfolk player at eternal weekend. Sounds like he's running a pretty stock list with chalice in the main. Hopefully he can make top 8!

TNN is not legal in modern. Because it was released in a commander product the only formats (besides commander and things like tiny leaders) where it is legal are eternal formats i.e. legacy,...

This is incorrect, unless they respond to the storm trigger by using mindbreak trap mindbreak trap can target each copy of flusterstorm on the stack.



It really depends on your board situation....

Miracles shouldn't be a problem even if you don't have chalices in your deck. :rolleyes:

Not really sure why we have a pissing contest everytime we have the chalice vs standstill debate. Both are good, it just depends on your playstyle.

Disclaimer in advance, i'm someone who plays a...

Who's dropping vials? :confused: It seems silly to run a number other than 4 or 0 vials when talking about most vial decks in legacy.

On the same note there was a list that top 16'd an SCG Legacy IQ a few weeks ago: http://sales.starcitygames.com//deckdatabase/displaydeck.php?DeckID=81092.

I guess the only interesting thing is...

I only bring in my chalices for games against combo decks, miracles and burn. I don't think it's needed in most other matchup. As for your second question depending on if i'm on the play or draw I...

What FANAttIC said for the first question. As for cyclonic rift, it's essentially a worse echoing truth. You're probably never going to get the chance to overload, and you're probably going to get...

Yeah I don't understand why we are comparing the 2 cards. They're both for completely different matchups with the only exception being something like elves.

I feel like in most cases decay is just a 2 mana uncounterable sword



Hasn't it always been sort of a thing in merfolk? I remember people running 1-2 of him before TNN was printed. Everytime...

On your way to making vintage merfolk eh? :tongue:

What matchups were boarding your standstills out in? I think it's interesting that you were boarding them out so often. That's probably the card that I board out the least oftenks. I think the only...

Hell yeah man repping the merfolkstill! Anyways I would be certainly interested in your report, i'm playing a list very similar right now. Maverick (depending on the build) and D&T are pretty bad...

Also against some of the blade decks you can also take away their equipment when they try to use sfm. It's a good card all around.

Am I being way to greedy if I want to play some quadlazer merfolk like this?

4 Cursecatcher
4 Lord of Atlantis
4 Master of the Pearl Trident
3 Phantasmal Image
4 Silvergill Adept
4...

The deck is not going to die; no one claimed it is going to die. It was playable even before cruise was a card, and i'm sure that it can still be played without cruise in the right configuration. It...

I don't think so, I imagine that people are going back to the BUG strategies that were popular before khans was released. The bug matchups can sometimes be miserable but they are pretty favorable....

I know this will probably sound a little absurd but have any of you guys also tested out thirst for knowledge? I've been running a single copy in my 75 (probably not the ideal number in a deck with...

I've been trying out a few gutshots in the sideboard however against most of the young pyromancer/delver decks the life lose is slightly relevant, although it does get rid of a lot of pressure that...
