Yeah, Grixis Delver looks incredibly strong now! I think Therapy with Probe is a better spot to be than Stifle to start out. Especially if we're expecting Elves and Storm.
I think he means Mana Maze, quite an interesting card. Not sure it's what the deck wants to fight elves though. Would be interested in hearing your experience if you try it though.
I'll add to...
I've played with it a week or so ago and it was fine.
Thanks, I was alluding to something like that :smile: Had forgotten about Spellbomb.
I'm also not sure these two slots in addition to Surgicals are needed. Is it mostly for Reanimator?
Nice job, cheers for the report! I've seen people going down to 3 Probes which I like, I'll try that out.
Not sure about the Relics in the sb, how were they? Is there not a better option since...
The main reason Macabre is better than Surgical vs the BR Rea deck isn't because it can exile two creatures, it's because it can't be discarded by Collective Brutality and more importantly lets you...
This is a sample size of one match? I think DnT is favoured in the matchup overall, especially if you're running Stifle.
Since people are already playing around Daze vs Delver decks Force Spike it truly terrible here. I wouldn't advise it.
That's a very reasonable point, I didn't consider it but now seems so obvious! Thanks. Despite how bad it is with Delver and Daze playing a Badlands becomes more and more enticing. I'm a big fan of...
This weekend a friend asked me why Grixis, especially the ones with two Therapy MD, play more Volcs than seas if there there are more cards needing black mana than red (4 DRS, 2 Angler, 2 Therapy and...
Theoretically yes, but it's not a common SB card for Grixis and I was just commenting on the SB he listed.
If DnT gets the uptick everybody is expecting from Prelate and Recruiter Dread may well...
I completely disagree with this, I think you boarded well. Bringing in Surgical vs non Punishing Fire fair decks is almost always wrong, even if they have Lingering Souls. Surgery is relying on...
Cheers for posting, he does play nicely! And got a little lucky in that G2 vs Shardless :tongue:
I'm really surprised that you Wasteland when you're behind on board, does anyone else do this? In that spot I'd play Ponder to bait a Daze so Bolt can resolve or find another removal spell or a...
She's not what this deck wants. Maybe in BUG, but not Grixis.
Seriously?
Waaay too expensive and doesn't do much for our gameplan.
Zombie fish was a consideration, might try it at some point in the future. I'm just a huge fan of Bob as he always overperforms for me in decks with cheap disruption. Obviously the strain of Bob vs...
I tried this at my LGS this week. Bit of a weak 2-2 finish, but one loss was to my friend on a 74 card mirror and the other was to a more typical Grixis Delver deck, I think I played that match...
Shaman and Smallpox go terribly together.
And when you don't have a Pyromancer Smallpox is miserable for you too.
Knew I was missing something, thanks!
The old DRS - Island combo, love it. And surely there are better cards to play than Stone Rain!? If you're playing B for DRS, why not Sinkhole?
I've found CB a huge problem too.
Mostly been on the control version, so even weaker to CB, but I'm sure it applies to both builds. Therapy/Pyroblast are fine vs the stock Ponder miracles without...
