GP SHIZUOKA Day One undefeated Miracles

So~ Pro Tour 25 was the first major event involving Legacy post banning on 2018. After that, we have GP Richmond and SCG Baltimore. There're numerous smaller events in-between and after. Sometimes...

AK and Purge.
First of all, I don't understand why one would splash black for thoughtseize and Aminatou. You gain so little and lose a lot more. That's not even the best Black cards I have in mind for control...
The GP Top 8 Miracles don't run AK, but it feels that the trend has taken off.
AK builds:

What!? Red Blast effect and Blood Moon are much more powerful and versatile than Contamination and Bitterblossom.
I feel you guys have confused yourself with Esper Mentor and Esper Stoneblade....
Don't be quick to dismiss new card choices. Snapcasters often are overloaded for StP flashback duties. Having TT in the graveyard allows you to create a draw trigger without other cards' help. In my...
Think Twice might be a thing.

There was strong incentive to run PFire package as punishing Miracles for the following reasons:
1. Games got grindy thanks to all the pile decks.
2. PFire serves as extra method to get rid of DRS...
Deluge is Not a good card for Miracles against dnt, not even close. It would cost 4 under Thalia via sorcery speed, paying life for creature removal effect is borderline useless when you could have...
In a strange plot twist, someone is now dusting off the old toy previously due to DRS

Just want to point out the obvious synergy between Teferi, Hero of Dominaria and Back to Basics. Currently there're lists floating around focusing on Teferi and have cut Counterbalance completely.

Couple new trends in the brave new meta.
1. With the rise of Wasteland decks, Search for Azcanta doesn't seem great.
2. With the number of Mongoose on the rise as well as the rising popularity...

The problem you described is real. However, there're couple things to note: 4-color control with Strix is one MU. Clique is a versatile SB card, people usually don't want to focus that much on a...
Why is it greedy/narrow? Back to Basic basically says you cannot commit to running Karakas and/or Search. FtA can actually convert a Karakas/Serarch into a basic land. Let's say B2B or FtA gets...
He's on this forum, you can just PM him, why go thru me? Long story short, he's favoring Soothsaying over Search. He just likes the interaction of Soothsaying + CB a lot. You're right, other than...
After hearing how much traumas Stefanogs has created for the storm players via Soothsaying + CB, and then talking to him on beginning of the Day 2 of GP (got introduced via a mutual friend), gonna...
Another Jim Davis no-CB Convert

Well SCG did make monk tokens of him. Interestingly, Karakas and Search as SB tech, his SB...
Thank you Jim, Back to Basics is now $70+ dollars before the Legacy GP. Good thing I got my copies long ago.
I wouldn't interpret as win-more, even though he wrote that regarding Entreat. He...
Cutting 2 plains is pretty extreme, I would only do this if I were on the draw for game 2. I can see 19 in certain MU, but not in mirror.
I know most MTGO players are running 4 Blast + 3...
Now you're just exaggerating using bad math. 20 - 8 from reanimate on Griselbrand - 14 life to draw 14 cards, that's not even valid. Griselbrand coming from Sneak and Show versus coming from BR...
This kind of post is misleading.
First of all, why give the impression that you must run Legendary creatures in Miracles if you decide to run a Karakas? Running a Karakas does not automatically...
Don't think Misdirection is the SB solution you would want against Turbo Depths. Turbo Depth is packed with Duress and Thoughtseize. As long as you're not pressuring Depth player with Mentor, they...
