Quite possibly but there's only one way of finding out for sure. I have used Spellskite in the sideboard to stop early hits and protect Dreadnought.

However, not a single Merfolk deck in the top 32 of GP Atlanta despite de fact that day 2 was full of islands. Was it that it was too soon for people to realise that Merfolk is well positioned...
I have also had varied experiences with the deck. As Steve describes in his article, the deck can go of as early as turn two with protection. Sometimes it even seems unstoppable (i have been able to...
It looks like a close call. Surgical Extraction also flips your Delvers whereas Crypt doesn't,. On the other hand, Crypt is much better graveyard hate all around. In any case, i think Extraction...
Great videos! I have only finished watching the first match. Have to go now but will definitely watch the other games later.
One minor point for you and all non-native English speakers: don't ever...
While not all that easy, I did not feel the matchup against Jund was particularly difficult. The early game is all yours since they do almost nothing, and by the time the middle game comes around...
Probably a crap suggestion because i haven't played Modern (though i'm definitely playing this deck at a gpt in January) but is Remand worth trying maybe in the 2 Sleight of Hand slots? I have always...
Rewind can seldom be ok, but terrible most of the time since it will almost always do exactly nothing pre-combo and almost nothing during combo. The following comments were posted in 2007 (old...
1) High Tide
2) Jace, the Mind Sculptor
3) Lion's Eye Diamond
4) Dark Confidant
5) Ichorid
This only works if your opponent is at two life which should not happen to them against Solidarity because we don't attack their life total (unless your opponent was so careless to Ad Nauseam himself...
Thanks munkie, those were the ones.
@ bokwinkle: wow, great blog!
I'm trying to talk a friend into EDH and i promised to send him link to a few introductory articles. I have found some by Bennie Smith (part 1, part 2 and part 3) and Sheldon Menery (Strategy and...
Excellent report! It makes me want to put Dreadstill aside for a while and get back into Solidarity mode again... Unfortunately, i won't be able to make our next Legacy local next week as i'll be...
On your first list, if Hunting Pack is there to randomly win games, do you really, really need the not-Island? In general, i dislike giving my deck the ability to lose me games unnecessarilly and, as...
About Burgeoning, why would you want to depend on your opponent doing something in order to advance your own game plan? What's wrong with Manabond? It might well be that Burgeoning fits better in a...
Just a quick note to say i played Rich's list at a small local tourney (with only a couple of changes in the sideboard: a fourth StP and E.E. for a Relic and something else). We only played four...
@ macgyver91: Thanks for the info. Still unsure if i'll make it to Florence but if i do i'll make sure to visit the shop :)
Thanks! I'll drop you a pm closer to the date if i arrange to go to Trieste.
Well, i'll be at Nats, and i'm flying to Italy from London so i'm already carrying decks anyway, so why not :wink:
:eek: Man, that Magic Marathon sounds great, i'll considering going to...
I'll be in Italy for about 10 days and am considering taking a deck or two with me in case there is the chance to play some games - or even attending some local tournament on the weekend.
So i'm...
I see what you're trying to do, but wouldn't dredging into Kozilek be like GY-hating yourself anyway? :confused:
This was a good read - i'm happy you are writing about Lands. Are you planning a follow up article, maybe with comments on the polls results? It would also be interesting to see a more in-depth...
Two of us northerners are taking the train down South tomorrow evening. See you on Saturday!
Agreed! I'm in a similar situation as you: my wife is from near Boulder and we occasionally go back to visit her family, and it would be nice to know there is a small Legacy community taking off.
