    Re: Food Chain Combo

    Intuition is the only card in blue or green that can tutor for food chain and griffin.

    I dropped the living wish package to make more sb space. I have not regretted that decision. Having acces to...

    I am not running any show and tells. My current list is on the previous page. Our manabases are identical. How have you been liking ancient tombs? Some games I love them and others, I hate them. I...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    The point of maniplate fate is that it isn't just a tutor. It is big time card advantage. I have found that 6 copies of food chain (2 drifts) and misthollow (2 manipulates) have been the right amount...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    @skogre: The biggest advantage of manipulate fate over intuition is that it is a four for one for two mana. Intuition is a one for one for three mana, albeit at instant speed. Intuition is a tutor...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    If you add black, you can tutor for rune-scarred demon to get food chain. Lots of mana though. The build I posted last has been testing very well. Primeval titan could be another target if you just...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I can't convince you on coiling oracle and cut them myself. They just don't do enough. This deck isn't like food chain elves where you have a critical mass of cantriping creatures. I am currently...

    If you want an empath target that can deal with pesky permanents, aethersnipe is the droid you are looking for.

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I am not doing big sample sizes of games and they are on mws, but none of the matchups felt horrible. I think the surprise factor of the deck has something to do with it. People are aware the combo...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    Tabernacle is a good idea I has not thought of. Witness has been nice for me in long games where I had wished more than once. I needed another aethersnipe in one game and had already wished for one....

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    I do not think I need a creature in Kozilek's spot. I added a tundra instead to solidify the manabase and make it more versatile. Coiling oracle seems like the weakest card maindeck, but it does help...

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    Good point. I may test soul of the harvest in kozi's spot. He would be much easier to hardcast than the other options. He draws your deck with misthollow combo.

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    Revoker stops pridemage, even if pridemage resolves first. You name pridemage as revoker enters play, so they can't use pridemage on revoker in response.

    I considered griselbrand as well. I chose...

    Spellskite could be an answer to pridemage or artifact/enchantment removal.

    Re: Food Chain Combo

    Kozilek has been ok when you are not infinite. Ten is much easier to reach than 15. That said, he is the spot I would switch if there was a card I really wanted main.

    The eight dorks have been...
