    Re: [Deck] Dream Halls Combo

    Maveric, that list looks pretty sleek. I love having win conditions in the SB with this deck so there's no truly dead draws. Have you considered running some Intuition so you can search for Dream...

    Re: [Deck] Dream Halls Combo

    You could also play a 1 card kill with Pandemonium as long as you run 2 Progenitus. The point of running Cruel Ultimatum isn't just to combo kill; you have another card to cast off Dream Halls for...
  4. Re: Grand Prix Providence- Most Popular Cards. Let's ban BLUE!

    Packing MM in Tendrils decks seems pretty iffy. You get a free counterspell, but at the expense of threat density. What's the point of countering their Misstep on your ritual, when you could just...

    Re: Show and Tell — Hive Mind

    @Tacosnape: I haven't read the coverage so I'm not sure if you're referring to a specific play. Yeah it's generally better for the opposing player to bottleneck the combo at Show and Tell and Hive...

    Re: Show and Tell — Hive Mind

    Cutting Brainstorm/Ponder to play Chalice is just bad. I can't imagine the type of confusion that would cause someone to try this.

    Discard can help you check what answers your opponent has. Maybe...

    Re: Show and Tell — Hive Mind

    Daze also does the same thing if they have 1 mana open. I think the best plan against Merfolk is to just get Emrakul as fast as possible if you see 1 or more Cursecatchers.

    Hooray, people are playing Hivemind now! I haven't been paying attention to Legacy for the past 5 months or so, but I remember playing a somewhat similar Dreamhalls/Hivemind deck back then, and it...

    Re: [SOM] Spoiler Discussion

    Other than the two mechanics, there's nothing much else that's very interesting. Metalcraft and infect are very self-contained and not very interactive. There's also the mandatory high-mana bombs.

    Re: Cards you initially overrated

    +1 for Hecatomb. It's one of those cards where newbies can only see the upside.

    Other overrated cards when I was a wee lad:
    Aspect of Wolf - this card was monstrous. Games would inevitably last...

    I barely board in anything for merfolk. Sometimes I board in Spell Pierce/Discard if I see a lot of Spell Pierce in game 2. I'm toying with boarding out Progenitus for some Innocent Blood or bounce...
  15. Re: [Free Article] What the June 20 2010 BR List Update Means For Legacy

    That's a pretty biased example. Vaulting for 30 cards when you run 8 spells to get a creature into the graveyard and 8 spells to reanimate a creature is pretty unlikely. Most of the time you'd just...

    Hmm. It would help if you could point out how you're having more trouble with Merfolk than any other aggro deck. Is it a problem with cantripping? A combination of Daze and Cursecatcher? Mana denial...

    Re: [Deck] Dream Halls Combo

    What specifically are you having trouble with in the Merfolk MU? Usually they just have 1 counter that you duress, or you FoW/Pact of Negation it, or you bait out a counter with S&T and then hardcast...

    I imagine that Loam's function isn't primarily for a wastelock, but rather for card advantage and consistently hitting your landdrops against stifle/waste. In that respect, the second loam is like an...

    Why play a card that can only tutor for 9cc cards when you can play a card that tutors for any card? You can win with searing wind while playing Conflux too, although Searing Wind is a pretty bad win...

    Re: Legacy events at Eudemonia in Berkeley, CA

    I was there playing Ultimate Walker. I realized it was a pretty poor choice once I saw a lot of combo decks there, but I didn't test enough with anything else. ANT beat Merfolk.

    wait what.

    You need Conflux to find your kill conditions. Is there something I'm not getting?

    In this deck, over 95% of the time your precise kill conditions won't matter. Conflux is...

    Re: [Deck] Dream Halls Combo

    No. That doesn't work. Colorless is actually not a color. If you want it to work, you could do something like 1x Celestial Dawn to tutor and cast Emrakul.
    Emrakul doesn't offer a whole lot to this...
