Random question (possibly slightly off-topic), where would one go to acquire German foil TES cards? I'm working on English at the moment, but am super keen to German foil once I've been playing the...

There's a few different reasons why people seem to play ANT more, the two that stick out for me are:

a) TES is a far more complicated deck, there's often multiple lines after casting a burning...

Oh Hell's yeah Lemnear, you just made my morning!! :D

Its definitely not just those two, its versatile enough that you could bring it in against almost anything that utilities the graveyard (so the mirror, ANT, RUG delver and a bunch more slightly off...

Damn, that's 4am for me :( guess I'm not listening live :P

22 pages! Sounds like its 100% worth the wait ^_^

I'm really excited for this man, I've been keeping an eye out for it for weeks :P

Being that you had the Ponder i probably would have waited. Its definitely risky both ways, but a silence-protected Ad Nauseum from what I'm assuming would have been 17~ life? Probably a sure win.

Great to hear! I must admit I enjoy your little stories and jokes as much as the actual reports, but they definitely come together as an absorbing read each time :)

Out of curiosity, how long have...

Heya dude, great result! I'm glad you've been enjoying playing TES.

A few comments on your report (mainly touching on some of your questions)
I think in your match vs Team America you were...

I don't think Silence being better than Autumn's Veil vs Vendilion Clique is relevant, you're playing 7 discard spells MD for any deck that plays significant number of Vendilion Clique.

How is it...

While i do like the idea of Veil, i think there's a few key points where Silence is better.

- Against Decks running Clique, or Venser. They can still cast them the same turn you go off and strip...

Are you MDing a Tundra for Silence? I've been really, really tempted to SB in a Tundra before in the aggro-control match ups over a Chrome Mox because the number of White sources increases virtually...

Like every sideboard decision, this is one you should make based on your own local meta. If you find yourself reaching for IGG over DR 9/10 then its definitely a good card to have, Bryant's deck is...

I for one am behind the Pyroblast idea, i think it can do a lot more than Carpet.

- Protects not just the combo and setup, but our own disruption/protection.
- Helps in the Counterbalance...

It does fit the slot well.. Would you keep it as a 1-of or throw 2 in?

The biggest downside, how are you going to get Japanese foils? :laugh:

I think for the threats TES seems to face Duress does the most work. In saying that, IoK hits things like Thalia and Ethersworn, but misses the main counter to the deck in FoW. I've seen it discussed...

Yes, it is very well positioned but if you're assuming that the person plays BUG colors you're definitely limiting the matchups that we're actually discussing.
I don't disagree that the win...

I definitely agree, the more that people side-in hate against EtW the more its doing its job. While its always nice to be able to turn 1-2 a bunch of goblins and put your opponent on a two turn...
