Worth noting that we're not running the registation as the store, so paying with credit card is a bit of a hassle (having to kindly ask the clerk to pay out some of our weird DK money).

Agreed. It's close to "sideboard in 4 Simian Spirit Guides" to get a faster combo. Unnecessary, but cute. If SnT end up getting banned in the future, it might start seeing play in a weird hybrid...
Yup, and I totally agree. I skip out on Probe when I play Omnitell, but I don't think I ever want to leave it out in SneakShow. Some people just prefer to run more counters or additional...
Some people view it as a "filler" spell which doesn't directly help your plan. The flex-slots are the most valuable area in the decklist when it comes to metagaming, and that's why people scorn it.
May I ask why you chose Firespout? I don't recall many problematic creatures where Pyroclasm/Fallout isn't a better option?
It's in there:
"
Ultimately, this is what the stock shell currently looks like:
*cut*
9 Flex-slots (Gitaxian Probe, Spell Pierce, Misdirection, Daze, Swan Song, Flusterstorm, Sensei's...
Yeah, SnS is not a very fun matchup for Omni (I play Omnitell a lot, currently trading my way up to Sneak) - Playing Show is usually very bad for us, as it can result in a free draw-14 on the other...
Put EtI on top instead of Emrakul, Release the Ants him to about 15, play Emrakul and attack?
Except when they float a FoW on top of their library.
Look, I respect your results with the deck and all, but "is stupid" is a bit out of line here. It's pretty good in the deck, as both another win-con, another SnT target and serves pretty well as...
"Like ever" is quite the understatement. If CB sticks, life can turn sour really quickly, depending on how many Lingering Souls/Sphere/Entreat/Force they can stack on top of their library. It can get...
Teferi's Realm looks like a sad Rushing River to me :( If I have to resolve something for 3 mana, I prefer it to be a solid bounce or a SnT. Re: Embers, I really prefer Emrakul, since its another SnT...
4-1-1'd my LGS last night with this:
2 City of Traitors
2 Ancient Tomb
4 Misty Rainforest
1 Flooded Strand
1 Scalding Tarn
10 Island
2 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
Managed to go 3-2, losing to Tin Fins (2-0, game 2 going to turn 18 where I had 3 Omniscience, a Leyline plus 11 lands in play and never saw a single drawspell past the first 2 turns... yeah) and...
It does indeed. I'll be taking my deck to its first tournament tonight, going with the LabMan kill and no discard. Looking very much forward to see how much power this thing has.
It's very useful when you're limited on mana (say, 4) with a Thalia on the other side of the table. Eot Wish for Pact, own turn pact the Thalia, SnT->Win. It's one mana less than doing the same thing...
Mostly because removing a Cunning Wish with Force is a lot less hurtful than removing LabMan. And it's undiscardable in the sideboard.
We're not that crazy about speed.
You mean, it's a fifth Cunning Wish once we have an enabler in play? Seems pretty poor. If it doubled as Show and Tell, I think we would already be all over it (ie. Scroll -> SnT costs the same as a...
Yeah, and that's exactly my problem with the deck right now. I feel that I have to start to clog up the deck with additional counters to get that "one more turn" to get the good turn off - and in...
It's perfectly readable :) Is it just me, or does it seem like High Tide is in quite a bind at the moment? There are lots of matchups that just doesn't feel _that_ good anymore. (I agree with egosum...
Yah, I was probably a bit too far out of the box with the Bridge - it does solve Grisel too though, besides the fact that it allows them to dig 14 cards for a bounce-spell :cry: - I'm just trying to...
Just a random thought - I know the SB is already stretched thin, but we could maybe run like 2 Ensnaring Bridge sb. Sneak/Show have very few options to remove it once it's on the board, and will...
There is no great replacement, as force really helps in all phases of the gameplan (setting up, drawing out the game to get more islands, protecting the spirals). If I really had to go Forceless,...
Hahah, You don't know :) - I'm still with 3 shocklands instead of Volc/Seas and they hurt so much :cry:
