Bolt you in the face
Cuz mom gave me forty bucks.
Bolt your face again.

The OP has been updated. Thanks JPAnghelescu and others for all the assistance in making this thread a comprehensive resource to players!

I definitely agree that we might as well wait to see how...

Although Jitte was an awfully poor example. Considering that it's legendary, Phyrexian Metamorph would go to the graveyard along with the original Jitte after state-based effects check the "legend...

@Tenbin

Sure, this is old tech, but that doesn't mean it's not worth at least re-analyzing when the meta shifts.

As I first began developing Sneak Show lists after the spoiling of Emrakul,...

I agree with the above post. The Stoneblade matchup tends to give us more than enough time to assemble a hand and go off by turn 4-5 safely.(Although, if the stoneblade player is on the play and...

I do especially love the art and flavor text on the Tempest ritual. Confusingly, I don't think it's intended to be Volrath, though. This is the look I'm familiar with:
...

It's always a pleasure to read your posts. The care you afford to detail is something to marvel at. I always feel I learn more about the game I love, how to teach it, play it, and keep it fun,...

City of Traitors isn't a must, but most players seem to be very comfortable with it. It depends how many Sol lands you want in total. If 4 is your number, I'd advocate for a 2/2 split. The extra...

Everyone running this deck needs to play around wasteland effectively. Yet if your Sol lands are consistently being targeted, it may be symptomatic of a play style error. In the overwhelming majority...

The OP needs to be updated desperately. It's been a a year and a half since the match-up analysis was written.

I don't have comprehensive data on matchups these days. :frown:

If anyone has the...

I) 4-6 Sol lands seems correct. 3 is okay, but only in a slower meta. In an open field I'd pack 5-6. Being one of the slowest combo decks in the format puts a burden on it to increase its speed...

Yeah yeah, I tested this. I used to run this in extended way back along with Hatred, skittering skirge, and dauthi slayer. Very nice synergy with sarcomancy, back then and now. Problem I ran into a...

Some sweet ideas in there. Especially Reassembling Skeleton and Volrath's Stronghold.

I think you're right that the deck really wants to be mono-black.

I don't think 8 Zombies is enough to...

Overview:

I've been noodling around with a few different builds since Gravecrawler was spoiled that hope...

:eek: Uh-mazing.

Scepter seems like a must in this strategy. So brutal.

Still, I couldn't help think that what this deck really craves is Fog Bank. The card does everything AND has the word...

I think 4 orbs are a must (unless you splash white, which would give you access to an e-tutor package for any combo piece as well as access to swords).

I think Spellskite is a nice fit for this...

Do you see where I live!? NORTH CAROLINA... I won't hold my breath.



...And I just drooled on myself. I blame you. Rude.

Lol. This thread is fucking amazing... Where are my indica blunts? Life isn't fair.

Sweet report. Congrats on your finish.

That's pretty sweet. Some sort of poetic justice.

Can we expect Top 8 decklists anytime soon?

This was useful...

It's hard to imagine a QS list being superior to existing storm decks (it might be interesting if you could support FoW, though...hmm...) especially because of Army of the...

@Serendib: No Jace, TMS? I've heard that guy is nasty. Should be able to make room for 2 or 3, right? -1 Rushing River, -1 Spell Snare (maybe?). He just seems too good to pass up, in my opinion.
...

Really enjoyed this Bryant. Got me thinking about all the friends I've made and continue to make because of the magic community: the drives, the jokes, the drinking, the experiences. It is, perhaps,...

Type 4 all day!

Normal. Lots of posts all the way through the thread address it (including OP). It's the reason Firespouts/Volcanic Fallouts are mainstays in the board. REBs rock here too.
