Took UR Delver to my first day 2 at GP Vegas. Had no byes but limped in at 6-3. Will have a writeup on Hipsters of the Coast if people are interested.

Deck was great, I lost some games due to bad...

Will likely be streaming UR tomorrow night. Haven't played the list in a few weeks. Has Soul Scar become a staple?

Taking UR Delver to the Worcester Open tomorrow. Gonna get the #prowessgang all together.

Monastery Swiftspear and Stormchaser Mage have been too good to me to leave behind.:laugh:

I will be playing my usual list, with 1 Thunderous Wrath and 1 Fireblast

Yeah, all my streams are archived on twitch for up to 3 months I think

I'll be streaming UR Delver tonight on Twitch in the Community Legacy League on MTGO

8:30 EST

Why do you consider Swiftspear a later game creature? It feels pretty bad once they have dropped any blocker.

Because I can't remember a time when I had 4 mana to make that play consistently on a turn relevant in the Eldrazi matchup.

With Eldrazi having Chalice, Wasteland, and a fast clock, I don't think...

I'd agree with the evaluation of Blood Moon. That being said, it sometimes feels so good to slam it versus Eldrazi or BUG, but often it's too little, too late.

Something I hadn't considered with Guide is the interaction with PoP - it can (sort of) make your PoPs better I suppose.

I haven't seen GG run in many lists lately.

Were you on the play vs Burn? I find that matchup to be not favorable myself.

I think that's reasonable for sure, as it's good in a few matchups.

If it was just for Miracles I'd probably pass

I'm surprised how many people don't counter SDT - I always assumed it was one of the most powerful cards against us. It enables the instant speed/0 mana investment to set up a Terminus on our turn,...

I'd say our Miracles matchup is slightly unfavorable generally. Thankfully some lists aren't running 4x Counterbalance anymore because BGx is on the rise (Decay)

The approach I take is usually no...

Yes PoP is also a cuttable card versus both, because Storm isn't playing many lands and most SnS decks can fetch basics, as they run Blood Moon often in the SB.

Yeah I board both pretty similarly. Both decks are resilient to your first counterspell, and if they go off there's likely no time to recover.

I think Daze is only good in the very early game, so...

I'll always cut the Chain Lightning, the Revelers, anything that I deem too slow in the matchup, or something I may never get to cast. Sometimes I will shave a Probe as well

Would be interested to...

Wrath was good, imo. I've used it quite a bit for the last month and haven't had it feel clunky with the exception of 1 game.

Burn has more direct damage available to it than UR does, so it makes...

oof that's rough. I've yet to take UR through an MTGO league, will do it soon for sure.

Vortex main is cute, but I'm always weary of adding a card that doesn't flip Delver

What did your SB look...

This is why I shaved one FOW in the main. UR does not recover well from the 2 for 1 and generally Force is a last resort IMO

I think it's correct to use counters against removal if it is your only threat or you don't possess the cantrips to dig for another threat. There is usually nothing wrong with using Daze vs a removal...

Absolutely. Also, BGx decks are always susceptible to PoP. Generally, the UR matchup versus BGx varaints is strong

That's a good question. Personally, if the removal is in the form of Bolt, Push, and Swords, I'd be more inclined to bring in Spell Pierce, Flusterstorm, and any other counters you have in the SB in...

What cards do you need to proxy, out of curiosity?

Yes, Fatal Push was rough. If we see it as a 3 or 4 of in decks, I think UR will take a sizable hit. I don't know if that card will become quite that ubiquitous.



I think TNN or Clique are both...
