I actually made my own version last night. I've just been goldfishing with it, but here is what I came up with:
4x Emrakul
4x Progenitus
4x Dreadnought
4x Eureka
4x Show and Tell
4x...
That list seems more like a new spin on Aeon Bridge. It does seem very interesting though, and I will sit down and play with some of the numbers.
Thank you both for your encouragement and support!
To bruizar: The Bridge seems interesting, but it looks like a win-more on paper. There's no way to assure you'll get a bomb on the top, and the...
The reason Preordain is good isn't just because of the card draw, but because it lets you see up to three cards when you're trying to dig for something. The next best option in this regard would...
Counterbalance is actually fine considering most spells you really want to resolve cost three and four. Top it off with the fact that all of your counters cost five and it makes it hard for the lock...
I really think it depends on what the meta looks like at the time. The surprise does help, but I did fine even with people knowing about what I was playing towards the end of the tournament. As long...
Go for it man. I'm honestly flattered that you like the deck this much to give it this kind of thought. I hope it serves you well whatever direction you decide to take it.
Thank you very much for the support!
I will admit that Nicol is a bit of a pet card of mine, and I do board him out against Aggro and Combo decks that don't involve Show and Tell because he's too...
The report can be found here.
If you have any questions or comments on the deck, please leave them below. I'll be happy to answer all of them.
First off thank you Lori for holding another great event and Ben for judging it! Congrats on everyone who Top 8ed, and I'm really glad my Reanimator worked out well for you Keith. Use it well in...
You're welcome for the checklist cards btw =P
Man, sorry I missed this one, it sounded awesome. Note to self though, test the Reanimator matchup heavily with Eureka!
@ Purgatory: 24 People
@ Antonius: I know! Next tournament I play it in I'll be sure to fix that problem
@ RaNDoMxGeSTuReS: It did, and he actually ran it extremely well
Note: I began writing this report before the announcement that Mental Misstep was ban. I will address the banning and the changes to the deck at the end of the report.
Second Note: The person who...
Thank you Lori for running this event and thank you to both Ben and Jacob for judging! Great event as usual, and I hopefully I can make it to the next one. You guys really are the best store in So Cal
I am planning to be in attendance, and the deck I'm going to sling will be amazing.
I still feel kinda bad about that. At least it makes for a good story =)
Thank you Lori for holding this event. Even with what happened, it was still a very well run event and I had a ton of fun. Can't wait for the next one!
I guess if you have concerns, double check it with the HJ of the tournament before the event starts. It is a legal action, even if it doesn't always advanced the board state, and as long as you do it...
Because of the chess clock, this deck is not practical on Modo. IRL it's fine because if you go into time because you took 20 min to combo off, you'll either win because you'll be up a game or...
I played it on Friday at a very small tournament with Intuitions over Preordains. Didn't drop a game in four rounds. This deck is for real.
Good point in the Narcos. I've personally found Vault to be a bit too slow, but Top seems like an interesting idea. Definitely worth testing.
For anyone who is interested, my tournament report of this event can be found here. I came in 9th with Four Horseman. Great event as always and Congrats to everyone who Top 8ed
After the June 26th Legacy event at Knightware, where I scrubbed out with Dredge, I set out looking for another combo deck that I could sling for the next large event in August. Thankfully, my good...
