    Re: [DTB] Death and Taxes

    Hello,

    I'm playing a mono-white list and have a hard time working out a sideboard. The list looks like this and I'd like suggestions!

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Nice run Warden!

    I like the list. I think your arguments for running 3 Thalia are valid (taxing equipments and redundancy), but I would have a hard time cutting one.

    Regarding the sideboard -...

    Re: D&T or Maverick?

    By just looking at tournament results - Death and Taxes is miles ahead of Maverick. It might partly be due to less people playing Maverick, but also as a result of Miracles being a top tier deck. It...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    A lot of good tips, thanks guys!

    My play area is pretty miracles dense. All the versions I've seen so far are the ponder builds, which makes my life a bit easier (no karakas, thank god).

    I am...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I also saw some potential in Dromoka's Command when it first was revealed, but when you break it down you'll realize that it's too narrow for the sideboard.
    The first obvious use would be against...

    @ Warden

    Thanks for the input! Your suggestions makes sense.

    I believe I'll switch the MB batterskull for a Sword of Feast and Famine instead of SoLaS because:

    1) Stoneforge decks are not...

    Hi guys,

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I don't see why Tasigur should be problematic. Most of the time he's just a Goyf, and that's a creature we can handle quite easily.

    I'm thinking of uping to 2 Ooze maindeck. He's insanely good in...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils)

    I must agree here. Most often is the target with burning wish an infernal tutor in the SB, since otherwise you're unable to cast PiF. Also, I only use ad nauseam in extreme emergencies. I hate the...

    Re: [DTB] ANT (Ad Nauseam Tendrils)

    Thanks! The main reason was that I dont have any Grim tutors, if I had one I would probably not play with burning wish. On the other hand, having a toolbox sideboard can be extremly useful, and has...

    I agree that pithing needle is a key card to board in, dispel Im not sure about (wouldnt it be nice to counter GSZ?). I usually board in one show and tell (ooze is a bitch) aswell against Maverick....

    Thanks for the help, although I'm still not convinced that a board with no tutors would do it for me. One of my main reasoningings is that if you have tutors, you'll never have to fear...
