I love the card as well, but you give your opponent a 7-card hand out of which Lightning Bolt is an instant loss or any counterspell can be harmful depending on your draw. I think PiF-route is better...

What kind of cantrips did you have in your graveyard?

You could've gone (t-volc)RoF->LED->LED->LP->(t-swamp)BW, crack LEDs (RBBBUUU)->PiF(RBU), Usea untapped, LP in Play, RoF still in graveyard...

If you can have 1 mana floating I'd pick red most of the time, because; 1. burning wish into tendrils is cheaper than infernal->wish->tendrils (which also needs LED most of the time) so red is more...

Ok, so I'll take the challenge to compare the two decks and list strengths and weaknesses of each deck. In the end I'll make some notes when one would be theoretically better than the other. I know...

Also, Chalice is a triggered ability which can be forgotten on purpose as M+1 pointed out and Null Rod has a static ability.

It's their trigger so you're not responsible. Chalice doesn't imply you can't cast your spells. It says that when you do, they might get countered but you can still play them. I've resolved...

I love it! But I hate the Thoughtseize, so I've put the Cabal Therapy as a wish target.



I'm not cutting Gemstone Mines because they're Gemstone Mines, but more because they're not fetch land.

So the past few weeks me and my friend played TES in a couple of tournaments.

He tested the Silence build and I tested the discard build. The first tournament the meta was pretty scattered. My...

No, generating 7/8 storm midgame, isn't that hard. Choosing between TNT and TES is still a matter of preference I guess.

Izzet Delver usually damages itself with probes and fetch, which makes the natural chain very accesible. I played 2 matches against it past tournament and beat them 3 times with a natural chain and...

Haha!

Okay, the problem I'm facing is I feel like I need an engine in the sideboard to wish for. Diminishing Returns is not ideal, but it's an engine. And that card is not playable without...

What's up fella's!

The new Treasure Cruise meta with Izzet Delver seems like a very good one for TES. That's why me and my buddy will be rocking this deck on sunday in a local tournament.
...

I don't have any experience with Miracles lately, but I have against RUG- and BUG Delver. In those match-ups they are pretty awesome to have in your opening hand. However, this is usually not the...

Does this formula consider that you've stacked your deck randomly and that, while you're drawing, the order doesn't change? I mean, I think we're calculating now that you're drawing 3x 1 card and...

Thanks! That helped a lot but didn't answer the scenario, because Chris addresses only situations where he demands exact amounts of specific cards.

I found this:...

I missed that one, thanks for pointing out!

On another note, I'm writing a couple of programs for my calculator to calculate the probability to draw a certain card. That worked, but now I'm trying...

1. On the play, hand of 7, unknown opponent, pre-board

1.1 , ( Keep )

1.2 , ( Mull )

1.3 ( Keep )

1.4 ( Keep )

So during testing I came across some awkward hands and I felt like listing some starting hands just for practice. I know I like to figure theoretical hands out and thought I wouldn't be the only one....

Hi all related to the Gitaxian probe discussion...

well, I've played G.P. in so many ways depending on the scenario that I could not say if it's well played or not if I've not seen the game...

The deck is hard because choices are very situation dependant. You can't make up guidelines like "situation A -> do this", because it's not just dependant on your hand and wether you're on the play...

Against Eidolons you can just play the Chains or Pyroclasm if you like them. However, I would like to test Angel's Grace for shits n giggles against Burn. Angel's Grace into Ad Nauseam seems like fun...

I'm with you on this one, however I wouldn't cut Gemstone Mine entirely (I think 2/3 is correct). I think playing 3 duals has been great in the past and I think having the extra shuffle-effects of...

There is one thing that excites me more than Grapeshot for infinite, and that is knowing and carrying out the 'safest' kill there is.

Don't cast the second RoF before the Dark Ritual. You can play around Daze with 1 RoF. Follow up with the dark ritual into Therapy. After that you can cast the second RoF. This way, if he FoWs your...

You made the right call. There is a bigger chance he kept his hand because of Top+hatebear/counterbalance then Top+FoW+Bluecard. And in the first scenario (CB/Canonist), you would most likely lose...
