    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    Sean Brown highlights the UR Delver deck that made top 4 in Paris in his recent article. He mainly covers the issue of YP (being proactive) and Stifle (being reactive) but also suggests his own build...

    Has anyone experience with wasteland in that (jeskai) build? Mainly dealing with utility lands as blinkmoth, cradle or busaiju. Now that turbo depths is a real thing, its more protection where...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    Thank you for the analysis on Stormchaser vs. YP. I don't dislike one over the other. I even think YP is great as it enables Wasteland and can even be cast off it. Wasteland unfortunately...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    In terms of a 2 drop I also prefer Stormchaser, due to his evasion, but it also enables Rough/Tumble or Pyroclasm in the board, while Pyromancer is slower in the short run but not a target for...

    Hey IamHANDSOME,

    thanks for sharing your experiences and the detailed analysis. Nevertheless I have some questions regarding your card choices and cannot agree completely with all you've stated.

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    I agree to Chart a Course being cluncy, primarly since it's a sorcery. Prowess isn't the biggest drawback-I'm happy to attack with Swiftspear and fake a spell or two in my hand to do a point of...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    Hello everyone,

    I recently tested a build based on the list Bob Huang played back with Treasure Cruise just with Chart A Course instead:

    Lands (18)
    2 Island
    1 Mountain
    2 Volcanic
    1 USea

    @Stuuch: nice job! I dunno how the magic online meta is but I never like to see FoW in preboard games against unknown opponents. But I guess we don't have to argue about 1 card being shifted between...

    Re: U/R Delver

    @wizard_of_gore: enigma drake is not a good card. If you care for a creature to stick and dodge removal play TNN. If you want to deal more damage play an additional PoP.

    I agree. Basically FoW and to a major extend Daze are dead draws against D&T I try to board in more creature to fight their plan (especially if they play around Dazr and you boarded it out). Mentor...

    I don't see Harsh Mentor as a contribution to the MD. It's main purpose seems to fight Miracles. In my board I already play 1 Pithing Needle and 1 Winter Orb to fight them and they both outclass...

    Problematically Canadian is not putting up great results at the moment, mostly due to Shaman, but also Leovold and TNN are problematic. Choosing UR allows a rock solid mana base and is able to punish...

    Re: [Deck] Blade Control

    I play UWR all the time. I don't think the combo MU is that bad and it's got the better removal. I don't think RW Nahiri is justified the Miracles MU. I'd play the Lithomancer in the side. Tokens are...

    Hey Guys,

    has anybody ever tryed to step back from the SFM package, which might seem too clunky? I was thinking to abuse free spells a little more with something like this:

    I can see your point, although a Karakas can do more for me in late game drawn off deck than the Pendelhaven, can it not? Cavern of Souls makes half of the meta having dead hands and draws against...

    I have considered that before. The thing is that a single Pendelhaven is just too random. You don't have it in hand when you need it and with 4 Caverns and Wastelands, I wanna have more red sources...

    That's not true. BUG lists do run a random Jitte without SFM of course but with it's cantrips its definetly easy to find it when they need it. JunK lists run SFM as well as stoneblade lists and...

    I'd say Smash to Smithereens is better than Vortex, since it's harder to handle and also serves the purpose to deny lifegain from Jitte/Batterscull.
