Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
In my experience, a high FoW meta isn't that bad for SI. It's decks that put a lot of pressure plus Force of Will or Force + spot discard that are problematic. At least if you build with...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
The only update is to say that Mentor is a viable sideboard plan. I don't know if it's the best sideboard plan, but it's certainly viable (you want to side some scrublands and possibly a savannah to...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
In SAINT, we found Mox Opal to be reliable with:
4 Lotus Petal
4 Chrome Mox
4 Lion's Eye Diamond
4 Mox Opal
4 Shield Sphere
4 Ornithopter
2 Phyrexian Walker
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
The real question is if you care about Goblin Charbelcher. If you don't, you win a lot by just playing 6-8 lands instead of 2 lands + 4 bayouLand Grant. Tall Men enabling Mox Opal and Therapy...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
I don't play SI as much anymore, but we much of the consistency comes down to not mulliganing. To do that, you want slightly more IMS
than SI used to play (classically, SI has 14 IMS (4 LP, 4 CMox,...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
I haven't actually seen anyone play this on mtgo in awhile, but the last variants that I saw played or played myself were each the SAINT variations (black belcher with SI shell, 4x Ad Naus, 4x Goblin...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
Lack of Belcher and playing Chancellor are just indicators that the person putting together the list has no idea what drives the deck or the pressures that form the rules for card selection.
The...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
If you're going to play a 5 drop black instant that loses 10 life, why don't you play the correct card? Hint, it's named Ad Nauseam.
I'm not saying you should play an Ad Nauseam in this deck, just...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
I often find Wild Cantor so good that I'd like a 2nd.
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
=5I've been thinking about decks I might bring to an event when I'm feeling pretty lazy and eventually came to a list that met my requirements of easy to play at 90% of its powerlevel, powerful, and...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
Requiring one of four Land Grant or one of (max, and I'm being super generous given current lists) three Bayou as your only viable mana sources vs Cabal Ritual seems infinitely more restrictive and...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
If this ever becomes a discussion, can I get in on it? ;)
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
When Pact SI debuted, it was in a heavy Force of Will metagame and maindecked Xantid Swarm. The idea was to use Xantid Swarm + Pacts to replace tall men. I don't see any reason why this shouldn't...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
Depending on the hate you expect (0 mana vs discard vs 2 mana hate) you board against non-blue. You'll want Chain of Vapor/Nature's Claim against Chalices from some decks and discard vs Mindbreak...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
Wait, did I see a sideboard plan of Drop of Honey vs Goblins? I stopped reading the first time after Chrome Mox, but wtf are you smoking? If you think siding in Drop of Honey vs Goblins is a good...
Re: [Deck] Spanish Inquisition (B/x Storm Combo)
Less than 4 Chrome Mox is wrong. There will be no discussion on this.
