Greetings,
I have been away for some time now. However, I have been able to do a bit more playing rather than judging lately. I won our 8-man local event this week. I played the following:

Greetings All,
It has been awhile since my last post. I have been judging more frequently now than playing (with the exception of Legacy locals). I played a fairly standard BUG Delver list with...
I am actually surprised that Dispel doesn't see more Legacy play. It counters most of the format's removal in Lightning Bolt, Swords to Plowshares, and Dismember (which has been on the rise). It is...
The guys above beat me to it. The reason to include one or two Bayou is typically a consideration of the spell distribution in your deck. If you are trying to cast black spells, especially double...
Countersquall certainly has some upside in its text; however, Negate's upside is in mana cost/flexibility. I have certainly kept a number of one land hands with this deck, doing so with...
The Negate does sound like it might be worth a shot. Hard counters for opposing planeswalkers as well as for combo match ups are a decent way to work this. Golgari Charm or the like for Baleful...
Greetings All!
Another week, Legacy local event. I went 3-1 again this week beating Elves (2-1), MUD (2-0), and ANT (2-0) due to players dropping, while losing to BUG Control (1-2). I kept the...
Greetings All!
Another week, Legacy local event. I went 3-1 again this week beating Mono-Red Stompy/Blood Moon (2-0), Elves (2-1), and earning an awkward round four bye (with a 2-1 record) due to...
It would be pretty awesome! I would love to do it too!
I completely agree. It probably would have been solid to bring/keep in against ANT, TES, Omnishow, and maybe Miracles. To play it against a Delver deck seems pretty loose to me. It was a very...
Greetings All!
Just here to report on another week's worth of Legacy. I went 3-1 this week beating Dredge (2-0), Grixis Delver (2-0), and Burning Reanimator (2-0), while losing to MUD (1-2). ...
I don't see how. I would have 4 draws that are relatively painful and 2 cards that cause some life loss (with 4 DRS, which can gain me life). The average CMC of the deck is still very low, which is...
I have been really liking it. I have been considering dropping the Tasigur, the Golden Fang to go to 2 Dark Confidants. The raw card advantage is really good. I did activate Tasigur, 3-4 times...
Greetings All!
I have another quick tournament report to give. I have changed gears a bit since my last post and pivoted back to the Stifle configuration. I piloted the deck to a 3-1 finish this...
Greetings All!
I split/won Legacy at my LGS last night. You can see my previous list here: ...
You are correct that extracting Tops is a huge gain. However a lot of things have to go right for you/us in this scenario. They have to have the top (which they usually do), you have to have the...
Tasigur, the Golden Fang with some protection not only ends games but is also a solid way to generate some card advantage. I have liked having him in the deck for this match up. Tarmogoyf ends...

From my most recent list I would board in the following manner versus Miracles:...
I seem to remember writing this in my last post.
Sure it may be a bad Smother but it still kills ~50-75% of the creatures played in the format. This coupled with the rest of our removal...
This is typically the problem with every "Charm" printed recently. You get three 1-mana effects for 2 mana. Dimir Charm is going to be a bit expensive regardless of what mode you decide. The power...
If you check out my current list here: http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/showthread.php?27874-DTB-Team-America-(BUG-Delver)&p=881989&viewfull=1#post881989, I would board the following way for these...
I find this very interesting. For awhile Delver variants were running an Envelop or two in the board to deal with the Terminus and Entreat the Angels. May not be wrong... it gives you a really...
I used to run 1 Engineered Plague alongside either 2 or a 1/1 split of Golgari Charm and Marsh Casualties back when True-Name Nemesis was everywhere. I found that this was very helpful in the Elves...
It may be the case that Zur's Weirding is a win-more in this specific combo match up. "Low on resources" is a bit of a vague statement. When I originally wrote this previous post, I didn't mean...
A couple things here. 1) Zur's Weirding doesn't trigger. It has no trigger clauses in its text. It contains a static effect and also creates a replacement effect that occurs whenever a player...
