    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    Some number of City of Brass and Fetchlands are interchangeable for a deck supporting green, it increases over all mana stability at the cost of losing shuffling effects for Braintstorm - pick our...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    Managed to make it back stateside in order to get some kitchen table top and local legacy in, went back to a more traditional URB list.

    1 Echo of Eons
    1 Empty the Warrnes

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    Same list as before, I change the numbers here and there but it never makes a real difference. The Veil deck has better disruption, so you have to take the time to discard it or force them to cycle....

    Monolith builds are the best I've played, their mana base and middle game are rock solid.

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    The new mythic lands are pretty interesting, likelyhood is they'll be Sorcery/Land types based on their cost. That said, would anyone want to be able to Burning Wish for a land to hit drops? Fairly...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    In my experience, Grim Monolith is better than Rite of Flame for a midgame and Defense Grid is too easy to play around when you have to go to the midgame.

    Wishclaw Talisman doesn't need anythng...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    The answer to the mana cost problem for TES was obvious, cut Rite of Flame for Grim Monolith. It doesn't require a Mountain, gives Metalcraft for Mox Opal and lets TES bank mana for later turns. You...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    One of the upsides to this in a MD over Ad Nauseam is that Spirit Guides are no risk again, maybe something like Belcher or SI could use it? It wins the game on the spot, so Summoner's Pact is...

    Infernal Tutor and Ad Nauseam are mana efficient because Lion's Eye Diamond is an excellerent, if 6+ .mana was mana efficient in and of itself then we wouldn't be using LED to begin with. Even after...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    At best, I think it's a SB card to replace the Burning Wish -> black tutor -> Ad Nauseam line, every thing else is either too slow or graveyard reliant. Even out of the board, I doubt it's going to...

    Thoughtcast isn't comparable, it takes a whole deck to cast it at all where Of One Mind gets enabled with Noble Hierarch and recurred with Snapcaster Mage. U for 2 cards is broken, and 2U for 2 cards...

    I do, personally I think Zirda looks interesting, Grim Monolith is an already fringe playable card that fits into Belcher. If anything the companions are just great Force of Will fodder and make the...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    I agree, Mox Opal, as it is, requires a lot of set up from cantrips and other artifact enablers before it's an actual mox - if Sensei's Divining Top were still around, it would be another matter. The...

    I have a radical idea, what if Burning Wish, Rite of Flame, Defense Grid, Brainstorm and Ponder are what's holding the deck back? Can we play a B/g Storm deck that uses Vault of Whispers to enable...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    I haven't been a real fan of the 4 color TES lists, because the manabase is very awkward between Veil of Summer, Bayou and a lack of black cards to imprint onto Chrome Mox. About the only recent...

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    I wouldn't go that far, 4 colours is difficult to support and Wishclaw over Infernal is a turn slower. The deck dropped Silence for a reason, and even tho' Veil is better it's not by that much.

    Re: [Deck] T.E.S. - The EPIC Storm

    I think your list is ok, the Chain of Vapor should probably be another discard for game 1 as there isn't much in the meta you need to have the bounce for game 1. It's kind of an odd deck, a little...

    @Izor, I would consider Consign/Oblivion over Pulverize at this point, it consolidates MD artifact removal and SB enchanment removal as well as elimates any need for a 3rd /r producing land. I think...

    Mire in Madness looks like a solid SB option, decent Wish target vs Leyline of Sanctity and Counterbalance in black.
