    Re: [DTB] BUG Control [Team America control style]

    Question: Why would one keep or board in Liliana vs Maverick? It seems through my own testing that Maverick dulls all Liliana's abilities (ie they can discard PF, they have Mom/NH/KotR out together)

    Re: [DTB] BUG Control [Team America control style]

    Congrats, Catmint at getting this thread in the DTB!

    @ Levin's list questions:

    It's probably a step in the right direction. I really like the deck but for the life of me I just can't win with...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    Unearth is just nuts for matchups without Swords/Path. No one plays around it or with it in the back of their mind. It's purely a reset button, and something to abuse with ETB critters like Clique...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    I can atest to the burn MU results you've found, catmint. Sure, we can load the board up and play garbage like Chill or other color hosers. But what I've found is that tight play and winning the...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    None of the lists play like Deed/Still, though. If you're going to pick up a list from the thread, Vuuyi, consider that by large this deck wants to curve out with discard/counters and stick a threat...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    Plus, no one sees Unearth coming. I want to avoid hypothetical talking points, so obviously playing against someone who knows the deck is an exception etc. Unearth lets you trade your...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    Then it's probably wrong to keep them in after sideboarding with this style deck. But as mentioned this is less a tempo and more a control oriented deck. About Snapping back a Hymn, if one can then...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    Interesting....

    I'd leave Snare in because all of their two drops are relevant. One mana counters are better than Force, so some combo of Pierce and Snare feels good as far as permission is...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    It's best to let them have it. You're boarding out blue cards for FoW. If you want to play to an out, have Nature's Claim or Krosan Grip in your board. Your deck will be much more consistent and...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    Well, I did kind of nut draw into stuff to trade with his board (wasteland, smother, spell pierce, etc) and then landed the Leyline to shut off his GY. It was elementary from there because at that...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    @Hollywood

    I have experienced and appreciate what you're saying. Leyline hasn't been so narrow for me however. It has repeatedly won games it shouldn't have. And all you're saying is less...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    I play Leyline instead of extirpate effects. The arguements for and against the card are known by all, but I'm more willing to give up four slots for a card that completely blows GY decks out of the...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    I tried his list out. Bob is just great to play, no matter what deck. But it just didn't dowhat was necessary to win the game. Drawing an extra card does help towards that, but over all I felt a...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control

    It hasn't been that bad, really. And I do want to find place for another land. I'm thinking Daze is doing more for the deck than it probably is.

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control (Primer)

    Made a mistake with that deck list. But you're right, it's becoming less of a cohesive control deck and more of a goodstuff late-game deck, a BUG Rock deck. I just really like the archetype but...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control (Primer)

    Deed is indeed better than Perish, but what Perish does for the green beatdown matchups is subtle. They're bringing in Choke and likely Grip against BUG control. Choke shuts down a vast portioin of...

    Re: [DECK] BUG Control (Primer)

    Assigning arbitrary percentages to matchups doesn't get any where, but you're right in your assessment. Game one is pretty much in their favor. On average, one can squeek out more wins if their...
