Glad to hear you're still having good success with the deck even if it didn't really come together in the end at Champs. Interesting to see someone come out and say that Hymn isn't as bad as people...

So this may sound crazy at first by why not play both treasure cruise and dark confidant? My friend has a European friend who did well at tournament doing this:...
How did you feel with the threat count in this deck? Seems rather light but I'm assuming Treasure Cruise makes that less of an issue than it'd otherwise would be.
Heh? I assumed you tested boarded games too. Testing only the main deck against elves is going to give you skewed results. It's the sideboarded games that especially matter in this MU so I would...
Elves is always tough. When constructing my sideboard I often think about whether a certain card, if not dedicated for Elves, can be brought in with even a small positive impact on the MU. I...
Good to know. The fact that you've changed your mind on Goyf makes me a less uneasy about him going forward as well in Team America since you claimed to have been conducting testing. When Treasure...
I think the changes are alright, though I agree with FoolofaTook that if you're going to play 18 lands you should be playing a fourth ponder instead of the first sylvan library. If you want to play...
In the example you gave I would play Deathrite Shaman. In the dark against an unknown opponent the best thing to do is to get a threat onto the board as quick as possible, especially Deathrite Shaman...
The Hymn lists are generally stronger against tribal since Stifle is pretty mediocre against Merfolk and Elves. It's okay against Goblins. The Stifle lists seems naturally better against Miracles...
Signorini's list is not really obsolete. People are still playing tapout style BUG Delver with Hymns and Lilianas. It's just that there have also been Stifle lists doing well recently since people...
Or Grixis so we can still run Deathrite Shaman, unless that's what you mean by four color with green just being for DRS life gain in the main deck :tongue: I'm on the fence about treasure cruise,...
I'm not saying I completely disagree with you as I haven't testing to determine if a stifle build or hymn build is better in terms of BUG Delver running TC. However, I think you're over emphasizing...
With your configuration I would worry that the deck would not have enough threats making those changes. The reason that Team America typically plays 14 creaures as opposed to RUG's 12 is because we...
I had similar issues and feelings with my similar list posted above. What I did to change that is Cut the TNNs for a couple Dark Confidants. In initial testing I seemed to have liked this change a...
Here you go: http://www.tcdecks.net/deck.php?id=14079&iddeck=103567. Now stop BUGging us about irrelevant decks! :tongue: lol. jk jk. I don't think my friend Sturtzilla meant to call people stupid...
When people try to get cute with surgical extraction and target the first land of yours that hits the graveyard. I don't think this or the pithing needle dilemma should affect your choice on what...
Oh come on man. I'll probably play a blue deathrite shaman deck again at some point. The shell is too good not to. BUG Brothers forevaaah :cool:
So I did pretty bad at Somerset over the Weekend. I think it was mostly me rather than the deck tbh. I hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before and was on autopilot or could not see lines very...
Hey guys. So I'm in Somerset for the weekend. Did not hit up the invitational even though I was qualified because I haven't been playing standard. Thus, I've just been durdling and being a degenerate...
Hey man. I think Hymn is important in tribal matchups like merfolk and goblins since their gameplan necessitates them to assemble a critical mass of dudes to kill you usually. It doesn't affect the...
@nditiz1: Good job on the excellent finish.
In response to the discussion of the RUG matchup: Kobebryan, you know I just run hot a lot when we test. Don't take those sessions as definitive...
Hey guys. So Here's a mini-report of what I played against in the IQ last weekend:
My list for reference:
4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Tarmogoyf
4 Delver of Secrets
1 Vendilion Clique
3 Abrupt...
Do you play the two deluges in place of flex slot cards like Liliana?
Also, I won the Legacy SCG IQ today that they held during the Columbus, OH PTQ with BUG Delver. Probably post some sort of...
I think I've got my maindeck for Team America pretty much set for Eternal Extravaganza this weekend. However, I'm still tinkering with my sideboard and would like some input on it. Here it is:
SB:...
@Manipulato: I have no idea since I'm American but thanks for sharing. That playmat is GORGEOUS. Would love to own it...
@Kobebryan: What are you talking about? Some player on scg stream?
