Yeah I basically talked to Javier and tweaked his list. I personally don't like Jace, so he's getting cut for Golgari Charm. I missed having Stalker for decks like RUG and Elves, so I might try him...

No.

Bob is better vs white fair decks and Combo (Miracles, StoneBlade), Tombstalker is better vs. non-white fair decks (RUG, Jund, Elves and Shardless). I would rather beat the former than the latter.

Went 7-2 in Baltimore, losing to Bant (bad luck imho, I beat it online) and Elves (bad match-up, didn't have enough SB cards).

Went 3-1 streaming last night's Daily with Dig BUG:

1 True-Name Nemesis
4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Tarmogoyf
1 Vendilion Clique
1 Tombstalker

4 Abrupt Decay

Hey all,

Just thought I'd post here because y'all are my fav. Went 13-2 with UWR Delver, I think it's the new TA. The deck is absolutely insane with sb CB, so I would recommend trying to get some...

Stifle is powerful when unexpected, and it's simply well-positioned in a metagame filled with Miracles and SFM. It's also passable vs. combo and Delver. Thoughtseize was underperforming in testing...

Darkblast is very powerful, but a bit narrow. I like running 1.

I got 11th in Worcester... Two close losses to Viking Funeral with MD PoP and UWR Delver. I wanted to play this deck because I think the Delver-Cruise MUs were fairly close and this one has the best...

This is what I played at the Invi:

4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Daze
4 Brainstorm
4 Force of Will
4 Hymn to Tourach
4 Ponder
4 Delver of Secrets
4 Tarmogoyf

So many TA players today. A bunch drawing into the top 8.

I actually played Infect for the shiggles. Ended up 7-2-1, one of the losses being to this deck

I went 6-2 with my list at the invi. Losses were to sneak and show and rug, and I managed to only play one bad matchup (elves). I was 2-1 vs sneak and show and 1-1 vs rug on the weekend.

Also,...

I think the matchup is even if they don't have Deluge and you have Tombstalker. Never side out Daze, it's your best card against them as post sb they can never play around it. Just make sure to keep...

I don't like Deluge because we play Delver and DRS. That being said, it might still be okay vs the tribal matchups. Jace is also fine. You would only bring him in when the games go long.

I also...

Jund becomes harder as you cut half of your Tombstalkers. Still, my record against Jund with 2 Tombstalkers was very, very good, so I'm okay with it getting worse.

Hey all,

This is my current TA list. It's been doing quite well for me lately, and has the adjustments needed in the new metagame.

4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Delver of Secrets
4 Tarmogoyf
1...

You need to save your counterspells for Jace, Entreat and Terminus. Those are all much more high impact cards than Swords to Plowshares, and can function as "removal".

There are obviously cases...

I also prefer to be on the miracles side in this matchup. The new lists with snapcaster Mage are much harder to beat. Still, I agree with almost everything Phillip said. It won't be skewed heavily...

Personally, I think I would board out all my hymns now. It's not good when you're behind and doesn't affect the board. You're usually on the back foot. Although we play 24 mana sources to their 18,...

Vs vial decks I like ignoring vial boarding out counters and focusing on hymn plus removal
