  1. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    It's out of vogue right now but Fire // Ice is a good option against BUG. It gives you a kill card against their little guys and a way to tap down their bigger guys in the mid-game when you need to....
  2. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Pithing Needle on Wasteland is really bad when it happens. Shardless BUG is likely to identify RUG Canadian as the beat down in the matchup and put stuff in to get past the early game and into...
  3. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    None of the solutions to a resolved Show and Tell are particularly good. It's generally a 3cc win-con. However of the hate that you could bring in for it I think other than Pyroblast/REB Krosan...
  4. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Krosan Grip stops everything relevant except for Emrakul from the hand or the play of a second Omniscience. Whether you have the mana to cast grip after fighting over Show and Tell and playing your...
  5. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Lately I've had the edge in the Stoneblade matchups and done fairly well against BUG Delver. Shardless is still a problem but the other BUG Delver lists are manageable.

    One of the things that...
  6. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Fire // Ice is really good in the list as a 2-of. I tend to play 3 combined between it and Forked Bolt with the number of each dependent on the meta I see at the moment. If I'm seeing lots of Elves...
  7. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    If you kept a hand without a threat you must hold up Stifle, obviously. If you have Delver in hand it kind of depends on what else you have in hand and what you are playing against. T1 Delver with...
  8. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Goyf is almost always one of the best cards in the list. He wins more top deck wars than any other card. Delver is the best early card and Mongoose is the best if the plan is working well but Goyf...
  9. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Stifling a fetch without a clock is not a negative play against a lot of lists, particularly the ones who are trying to shuffle away trash or get to 3 mana. In those cases it is a game-saving play...
  10. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    What I've found is that once the Enchantress player gets to 5 mana they are going to build their hand and then sequence their plays in a way that you just can't adequately control the situation.
    ...
  11. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    If Enchantress is on the play it can be a very unfavorable matchup because they get to play their first ramp piece before you play. Then turn 2 they can drop their 2nd land and their 2nd ramp piece...
  12. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    The way to beat Enchantress is to counter everything they try to do early on. They have no targets for your burn so it's a good thing to side out for the extra counters in your sideboard. If you...
  13. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    NLT will not work in my meta or any other solid Legacy meta at this point. Delver of Secrets is what makes the list competitive at this point. Without it RUG is just too slow to cope with the wide...
  14. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    If I was going to pull 2 spells for 2 Wooded Foothills what would be the best candidates?

    I've had terrible mulligan luck in 3 of the last 4 competitions I have taken CT too. It's always not...
  15. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Yeah, that too although it's a useful enough card that it's not an easy pitch unless the alternative is Brainstorm or the Delver you want to play on your turn.

    I'm wondering if Fire//Ice and...
  16. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Here are the things that Fire//Ice does:

    1. Kills a 2 toughness creature on turn 2.
    2. Kills 2 1 toughness creatures on turn 2.
    3. Taps down a land during the opponent's upkeep early on to...
  17. Re: [DTB] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    I don't know if the list is good or not but he does have 10 ways to deal with a DRS or Insectile Aberration by turn 2. He's also got Elves and D&T better handled than a typical RUG Delver list. I'm...
  18. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    If you're sitting on a single colored land, Delver and Stifle and you go the Delver route and they wasteland your single land you're going to lose most of the time. I guess it depends on what else...
  19. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Not in relation to the RUG list but Spell Snare is a very good card in the meta right now.

    Stoneforge Mystic
    Young Pyromancer
    Snapcaster Mage
    Counterbalance
    Rest in Peace
    Chalice of the Void...
  20. Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    The best one drop in Legacy right now is Deathrite Shaman. Twisting into knots to find a replacement for Nimble Mongoose shouldn't be necessary. One more land, an Underground Sea and maybe replace...
