A question, mainly to @Arianrhod:
During the last year there has been kind of a consensus here (and I think you said it yourself) that Sneak Fit was the better of the two Jund combo-ish variants...
But where do I find it? is it on Twitch? on what stream?
Is there any video left from the tournament with some nic fit matches?
Gitrog does let you play an additional land per turn so if you have lands you can continue to develop your manabase. Having tried both I can tell that is seldom the case and that titania closes the...
I've been trying her in my BUG list and I've found that you almost never want to blind 0, as scry 2 is pretty decent by itself, so I just use the 0 if I set it with brainstorm, which kind of worsens...
Ok, so this BUG NO list has won 2 online leagues and placed third in another one in the last 10 days, and that's a pretty nice streak considering how unusual Nic Fit appearances are in mtgtop8. The...
Has someone actually tried running Nissa, Steward of Elements in a BUG shell?? I know there has been some speculation, but with the changes in PW rules now we will be able to run her alongside Nissa,...
Hmm, I haven't been doing that... I just feel that by herself, with just a fetch in the yard that's 10 power already, which is pretty big for a 5 cmc zenitheable creature. I don't think you should be...
I've been playing Titania with just 2 Crop Rotation and fetchlands and she is awesome. Crop into Wasteland yourself provides 15 power out of nowhere and ends games.
To add my 2 cents, you can even sacrifice Tidehollow to Phyrexian Tower in response to the trigger if the opponent has a card you don't want him to recover and you have another form of applying...
I've been playing BUG and used to run 2 Tops alongside 4 Brainstorms... Definitely happy to be playing Brainstorm now, though I might squeeze a Sylvan Library into one of the two slots left. Might...
Hmm the problem is you have to play Worldy Tutor in your fair deck, which is inherent card disadvantage (with Vizier's "synergy" it comes out just even). I feel GSZ is too superior for us even to...
Hmm, I get that reasons... It seems fair, but Nic Fit ain't a combo deck and the synergies are pretty mild, it's not like you are gaining a crap ton of value by combining any two cards, and not all...
Why would you say drawing 20 cards is more than twice better than 10? The only reason I can think of is that you gain more options plus the double amount of cards, but in my experience excess card...
Yeah, but opponents don't always have creatures... Good luck trying to block a flipped Delver with Veteran too. I guess I'll have to keep track of the amount of times I'm in need for it or just test...
I think that yes: this deck is not designed to operate with 3 mana. If that were the case, we would be playing Deathrite Shaman and Birds of Paradise instead of Veteran Explorer, so I feel that a...
Everyone is talking about the Croc but what about the two 2-drops? Having a 2 cmc zenith target to get rid of the first explorer could be pretty big and add a lot of consistency to the deck while...
Sudden Demise doesn't kill TNN. Damage is prevented because of protection.
I lol'd hard to this :laugh:
A friend who plays Scapewish gets many wins against reanimator by discarding them a fatty (so they put a weird and pleased look) and then wishing for Reanimate and...
I disagree that Primeval is a weaker effect: it brings two new lands while Scapeshift just replaces them. Plus it's a 6/6 trampler that must be answered, and Zenitheable. Yet I was going to say that...
I was impressed by that list too, seems consistent. Yet, what surprised me the most is how it contradicted many of the primer's tips:
- It runs Dryad Arbor
- It runs 3 Hymn to Tourach
- It runs...
Remember that you are not winning the game the turn after scapeshift, you need another turn to be able to attack with Marit Lage. The interaction with Tracker is sweet though; having a bunch of cards...
But then you have to wait another turn to attack, so it's 2 turns until your opponent is dead, whereas Scapeshift kills instantly... Moreover, you give one full turn for your opponent to play 1...
I've found that most lists tend to have trouble with Marit Lage, I'm playing 2 Wasteland to help against it but it's not great. In my build it's kind of justified because I'm running Intuition and...
