    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    I don't really understand this, even if you're not looting you are still clocking your opponent or buying time to find the combo, a bridge or whatever else prevents you from dying. Why is that a bad...

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    If you're worried about multiple creatures you can always play something like pyrokinesis or play some split of chasms/bolts.

    Outside of Ratchet Bomb your best option for killing a creature is probably Pyrite Spellbomb. I think there are some janky equipment from older sets that allow you to ping creatures as well but those...

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    If you are choked on mana it seems like it would be reasonable to get LED with the first activation and then whatever else you need with the 2nd.




    LED is insane and I have 0 idea why people...

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    There really aren't any guidelines outside of some of the more obvious ones i.e. don't keep hands with sol lands + only red/white cards, don't keep no landers, etc. Basically just ask yourself "what...

    The card lets you play a tutor board alongside e-tutor and recruiter, to effectively fetch most of the cards in the deck, turns extra artifacts into beaters (+ you can loot with copter) and helps you...

    Why do you think that a card that isn't even playable in the dedicated white weenie deck is playable in this one?

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    You should never be boarding out the combo outside of maybe 1-2 grindstone vs S&T. There aren't any set rules on how to board but I usually take out some amount of fast mana postboard since matchups...

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    Peacekeeper might be a tad better since it can come in a variety of matchups outside of elves. A card like this is usually very bad against a deck like Delver because it's so easy to remove.

    Out of curiosity besides combo what matchups have you been finding canonist to be better than blood moon? Blood moon is kind of weird against both Grixis Delver and Czech Pile. If landed early you...

    Ah whoops, my bad. Still not used to thinking about a 4 canonist version of this deck. Either way I wouldn't recommend mox diamond.

    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    You want atleast 23-24 lands to support mox diamond and that is probably cutting it close. In general mox diamonds are used for fixing mana, so they can be thought of as supplementing lands rather...

    I almost will never mulligan barring either 2 things: a no lander or a hand with all red spells and a sol land. In the dark i'd always keep a turn 2 combo hand. I think the hand you gave as an...
