Yeah, but I feel like "winning" can pose a significant hurdle for the Aggro Loam player once the Ensnaring Bridge is in play.

Edit: I guess Liliana and Wastelock a bunch. Or a lengthy Punishing...

Heyo, I'm cross-posting this to the main and relevant non-blue decks. This coming Saturday I'm going to be running a brew that I'm not too familiar with and I'm under the firm impression that at some...

Agreed.

Was coming in to say exactly this.




Lands can be tricky. They can certainly come out of the gate with a fast 20/20 or Wastelock, but it's in no way bad. Leyline of course goes a long way and...

I mean, having seven lands on the battlefield is rarely a good thing and an overcosted basic Forest tutor is basically worthless.

I can't say I've tried anything out, but I would love to power out Avalanche Riders again.

wat.

As dumb as it initially sounds, I actually wouldn't mind having a one-of Chrome Mox in the sideboard. It'd help power out the necessary hate and it'd help with matches that rely heavily on Blood Moon.

I've been dying to Storm a lot more often than I'd like. Anyone have any suggestions for turn one defense other than Thoughtseize?

D:

It's tough to make changes when you know your list by heart, but yeah, four Abrupt Decays is what it should have put, and I'll let you know how the second Deluge works out after this weekend....

Well, I was figuring "what does it matter if I pay nineteen life so long Big Scary Creature is toast", but that's part of the reason I've been thinking of Deluge, too. Before this point I've always...

These are the situations that I'm afraid of, but Deathrite ends up just being an underwhelming mana dork so often that I can't really keep utilizing him. I mean, I don't even want Dryad Arbor that...

Went to a ~80 man event this past weekend. Went 4-3. Won against Mono-Green 12 Post, Miracles, Elves, and 4c Shardless. Losses were to Shardless BUG, Grixis Delver, and BUG Delver.

Seems to be a...

I mean, it does come in handy overall sometimes, but there's definitely not a specific match-up (aside from ANT kind of) and, anyways, few things are more satisfying than giving Mother of Runes and...

I mean, I've always seen the ability to regenerate. I slam it out more often than I'd expect (and get more salty reactions to the surprise than I'd expect), but I never thought to include Golgari...

It's also worth noting that you can Waste a fetchland in response to a Top activation to force a decision between land destruction and forfeit of their miracle/top card. Wasteland 2 stronk.

Fucking Burn...

Mainboard cards like Abrupt Decay or sideboard tech like Engineered Plague are actual answers to Monastery Mentor whereas Punishing Fire more resembles a really expensive wet pool noodle. That being...

Wait, I'm confused. Why didn't you just Extirpate the Dark Depths?

Edit: Looking at it now, I'm going to assume he ended up sacrificing something other than the Dark Depths in response to...

Also went to SCGNJ. Went 9-6. Punted hard on day 2 against BUG Delver. Didn't play against Miracles once. :(

I don't mean to put this so bluntly, but the truth is that those similarities end at "colors".

They are completely different decks, about as comparable as Miracles is to BUG Delver, and rarely if...

Set it to zero. Not only will you feel terrible if you pass the turn and straight up lose, but they run 6-7 pieces of discard and they'll do anything in their power to prevent you from landing Thalia...

Awesome finish, man. I managed an impressive 4-4 at SCG Philly, so it's good to know at least one of us is competent enough to show the world who's boss. :V

After playing through 15 rounds, how do...

:V

Thanks.

-1 Chalice is actually a change that I made quite some time ago. SCG Worcester back in September being the first time I ran it at a major event. At the time, I had the following to...

This is the part that's revving my engine right now.

Also, I love that new plant son-of-a-bitch on a sheer "fun" basis, but the fact that he's not an immediate threat makes me not like him from an...
