    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    Hey guys a few questions about SB and how to play some matchups.

    Context, I’ve played a ton of paper Legacy in the past and recently found out my old MTGO cards appreciated in value and was able...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    From playing the deck. The lord draw is one of the faster ways to win the game. If you have a few lords out, and keep vialing them out, your probably going to win.

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    In testing, if I only have one merfolk out, I want it to be him.


    This is true. However, I keep finding myself wanting to have at least one of them.


    In testing, this hasn't mattered too...

    Have you ever played against Goblins? Please explain to me how its a favorable match up. If everyone in the forums seems to think it is I'm obviously not very good at this game. Your point relating...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    I have yet to test it, but the fact that you said flying is irrelevant seems like ignorance. Moat is a prime example of why this guy is a solid card. By no means is he the best merfolk ever, but he...

    Re: [Article] Dredging Through Two Tournaments

    Good reports.

    I didn't comment on your previous article but my critique is limited. The first is that I feel like you pushed Ravenous Trap to the side. The card is very good, and playing around...
  10. Re: [Paranoia] Is U/B Reanimator the best deck in the format?

    I guess what gets me is that in testing the deck just has so much consistency. Its pretty easy to get past a FoW or a Spell Snare, or a Daze.

    In game one at the 5k he goes to EOT (my turn) crack...
  11. Re: [Paranoia] Is U/B Reanimator the best deck in the format?

    To be fair in testing Reanimator has been very good.

    We played a few matches with U/W Tempo list and it was never even close.
    A 3 color Counterbalance deck that won one game when reanimator got...

    Re: SCG Richmond 5K - 10th Place

    B2B was never that useful. I don't want to immediately throw it out because of how good it is against Countertop and Thresh decks. I did a lot of testing against Canadian Thresh and once it resolves...

  23. Re: Mox Sapphire Tournament at Get Your Game On, Ann Arbor, MI - Aug 8

    Merfolk went 2-3. Ran into Goblins, of which there were 3 or 4 players. Then again there were 4 or so merfolk players too.
