    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I would have just got another Recruiter. But I prefer straight UBG as most. Have yet to decide whether to run Explorer, Hierarch or no mana dorks. Will test IOK version next.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    The Eldrazi MU is just fine. Just practice with the deck and you should be set. I was about to play the deck the following GP, but I think I'd rather play BUG Standstill which I have more experience...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Have you really played the matchup? Sometimes you just lose, but that applies to every deck versus Eldrazi. Usually if you survive the initial onslaught, you will bury them under card advantage. You...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    First, they can't really lock us. Chalice@1 or Thorn does not prevent us from comboing nor advancing our game plan, and Chalice@2 or 3 can be Decayed if needed. We have Strix which is obviously...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Goyfs are as good as walls can get. They can easily turn into offensive and enable attack from several angles. I stealed one game where my opponent hastly took Aluren with his Thoughtseize when the...

    4 Forest
    4 Misty Rainforest
    2 Polluted Delta
    2...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    You mean 4 Familiar not Harpy right? Harpy does nothing before going off. If you have at least one Familiar, then any other creature is better draw than Oracle. And if you draw Chain of Vapor with...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    No I didn't and it is not. Creature that just cantrips and chumps once really is not cutting it, even if it accelerates mana 1/3 of time.

    I am convinced that running less than four Ponders is a...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Blocking Tarmogoyf and living is just so much better than bouncing one to hand to be replayed. Being able to dodge targeted removal is also nice.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    FoW isn't the best card in this deck, but no creature will ever remove Humility.

    Take my word for Ponder. It is the second Brainstorm, and Brainstorm is the best card in combo deck. Look at...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    Anyone tried squeezing 4 Ponders in yet? I have just done that and think this should be logical step in a deck that wants to find 2+ specific cards to combo out.
