This is something learned the hard way, and coming from a long time closet Dredge player and Vintage Dredge player, it is easier to understand how to stack triggers when you are taught early on that...
I may be moving into the Seattle area this summer, so I am hoping that this is a reality, or just that Vintage can be found in the area or created. Haven't found much lately there in terms of Vintage.
I would like to get some input on the list I have been developing as of late. I am curious as to if 4 of Dreadnought is ever a problem for you guys, you seem to all run 4 and I find that I don't...
I would most likely suggest taking out Flame Rift, at least when you sideboard against them. They are an aggro deck as well in some aspects and being able to turn their tide by hitting yourself for 4...
It would be primarily for dealing with Leyline of Sanctity, but it would double as Smash to Smithereens because it would take that spot in the side. This could be wrong though, and I will test first...
Yeah, the bridge catches people off guard and can definitely just win the game. I have a feeling that Vortex may be only okay right now and is why i am changing the list up that I will show soon...
I played a tournament recently with less success, and it happens to me from time to time and I chalk it up and learn from it. I personally love the deck and my point to make is I have been feeling...
First off, I really appreciate all you've done with the primer and appreciate your words of praise and hope. I also appreciate you penciling me in on the deck lists that have placed recently. I...
I understand you did not want to post a lengthy comment, but you got some explaining to do. What last 4 big events are you talking about, I have done a small conveyance of result pages, I will list...
I am really liking the MD Bridge, it seems like my friend above said, that it comes in almost all match ups, and I went over an idea of all the decks in Legacy and the majority of them are decks I...
I recently placed 22nd at a 184 player Legacy Tournament on the east coast and wanted to share some insight on matches and where I want to take my list next. Feel free to let me know any thoughts you...
I like your idea of pitching it to Pyrokinesis when it is bad, but I feel it is too risky to even run the card, especially with only 2 Pyrokinesis and Pyrokinesis isn't even hitting them in the face....
Could you explain the split on Sulfuric and Skullcrack in more depth?
How vital have the Volcanic Fallouts been in general, and what match-ups do you find you need them in?
Without fetch lands, Grim Lavamancer can be pretty lackluster in most circumstances, I would suggest lowering the count to 0-2 Grim Lavamancers and adding in Hellspark Elemental or Keldon Marauders...
I am not sure what you are running the Fallouts main for, could you give me a reasoning behind that choice?
I would suggest at least 20 Mountains when you run Sulfuric Vortex. If you can afford to...
I tend to stay away from Vexing, and down to 8 creatures because of Deathrite, Grim defeats it in a fight and that's the way I like it, I don't want them using my creatures to lose the game for me. I...
I will forever favor the fetch burn, Grim Lavamancer flat out wins games for us. I would be careful about how many Grims you run without fetches, I do enjoy myself a Hellspark Elemental over...
I've been having the same thoughts about the 21st land and 4th Vortex, in my case I've been running a singleton Ensnaring Bridge, mainly just as a placeholder for now until I find a reasonable choice...
I have a few questions for you before I try to debate or understand your logical analysis of burn and its core cards/interactions.
Are you building burn because of budget?
What is the meta you...
Vexing Shusher
But seriously, can we talk about match-ups and sideboard plans people? However much I enjoy the one liner comments, I still want some subsistence. This will be my last short...
I am really not a huge fan of the Enlightened Tutor package, but I can definitely see its worth and it would be interesting to test. The fundamental problem for me is putting it on the top of my deck...
I actually run 20 lands (no Barbarian Ring).
12 Fetches
8 Mountains
I just went to 20 one day because I felt like I was flooding sometimes and haven't had a problem since, I did do the math and...
I agree with Leo about the argument about vexing getting out of hand and being extremely boring. It is very simple to me why I don't run Vexing Devil, and the only deck I play is Burn, which I have...
I have personally lost a game due to Barbarian Ring being a Wasteland target, so I am pretty bias on playing it and I play the fetch Grim Lavamancer version myself. I do wonder how you deal with...
Does Grim Lavamancer not counteract your Tarmogoyf plan?
It also seems like you have a lot of sideboard cards dedicated to beating Sneak and Show.
Are you having a lot of problems with the...
