Some number of decays and empty the warrens should be good for delver.
@jesture man, the situation is really tough. We are just wishing for luck in this situation. The opponent has a guaranteed turn 3 kill vs our hand that can't beat gy hate. The flusterstorm route...
@Jesture
I just think there's to many outs for a kill next turn for the infect player (crop rotation, pendelhaven, any pump spell etc). With flusterstorm you can be a bit greedy and hope the...
@Togores
I think you have to get the flusterstorm so you wont' die next turn if your opponent draws another pump spell, and then work for the win on the next turns. Or I'll probably shuffle and...
I've been testing a grindier approach against infect lately (boarding in more tendrils, decays and flusterstorms) after noticing they overload on answers. They have a tendency to brainstorm away any...
I think Rodrigo's list is the same list as Kai's list (just +1 top, -1 preordain) which did well last year at GP Kyoto.
What I don't like about Dark Pet is that it costs 5 mana. It usually needs a...
I was playing Rodrigo's MD list with 1 Top, 1 Preordain, and 9 rituals.
Regarding Karakas, I played it just in case they have Teeg or Ruric, but I think those aren't really played much anymore....
Hi storm brothers
I made top 4 in a 6 round tourney using the 2 pif and 1 top build.

rd 2 Elves: 2-1
rd 3 UB Omnitell: 1-2
rd 4 Infect: 2-1
rd 5 Grixis Delver: 2-1
rd 6...
@Rodrigo
What would you play if you didn't have the flusterstorms?
congrats Rodrigo! You should start an academy for aspiring storm players.
Cheers
I'm having some trouble facing burn lately. The burn player in my LGS has Mindbreak Trap, Graveyard hate, and Pyrostatic Pillar on top of Eidolon post-board. How would you board against this match up...
I don't think this deck is going anywhere even with all the eldrazi crap
When is it okay to keep Tendrils in the opening hand? I made top 4 after 5 rounds last weekend and lost to Grixis Delver with him having probe+therapy in the first three turns. Is it okay to keep...
@esper
boarding into grinding station works for me
cheers
After playing delver decks for most of my legacy career, and sucking hard at playing ANT, I finally managed to top 8 a small tourney yesterday. Thanks to some videos from Jona and Togores, I noticed...
What's a good sideboard for a meta with lots of reanimator? Should I go for xantid or gy hate like surgical and crypt?
Cheers
Storm with RIP maindeck?

Thanks a lot! I'm not yet confident in my postboard game against elves. I will keep the tips in mind.
Kai,
Do you aggresively mulligan slow hands vs elves post board knowing they are packing a ton of hate after? Do you look for a specific set of cards in your openers vs elves? Thanks for the...
Has anyone here tested toxic deluge in the sb? Any opinions?
Cheers
Quick tourney report
played a 6 rounder, ending with a 3-3 result
RD1 vs Sneak and Show
Game 1: Played tropical island and volcanic island for the first few turns pretending to be RUG delver....
Is it advisable to board in Decays vs BUG? How effective is it?
Cheers
Storm Padawan here. What's the SB plan vs RUG Delver for builds without ETW and Carpet of Flowers? I'm currently playing 7 MD discard. Is it acceptable to just board in some chain of vapors?
Cheers
@Kai
Did you encounter any difficulties with the reduced number of red sources post-board?
Cheers
