I would consider a completely different strategy: go control/combo. Here is my list which is pretty competitive (not Oona/Arcum/Sharuum super holy crap competitive, but a little below).
...
Try Thraximundar maybe. Great beater who does something the turn he comes into play, plus he is set in colors which allow you to play some nasty combos as well as some great removal.
If you want tutorable removal, then Crib Swap would probably be your best bet (especially as it is reusable with Lin Sivvi, and it can kill indestructible creatures like Ulamog).
Also,...
I was just looking for some advice on a couple of card choices for my Thraximundar EDH deck. Keep in mind that it is geared towards multiplayer (unlike Mr. Cook's list) and that I want to make it...
Venser, the Sojouner
3UW
3 Loyalty
+2 Exile target permanent you own. Return it to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step.
-1 Creatures are unblockable this turn.
-8 You get an...
Awesome, someone else who feels the same way I do!!! He would totally ruin all the fun whenever I went. Thankfully I only played him twice (or at least that I can remember) and I am 1-1 against...
OK thank goodness, I was so worried that the Landstill player might have been you, cause I really really disliked him. I have no idea if he still goes there, but if he does, please crush him for me...
Congratulations on the finish. I am playing almost the same thing (different manabase/I am not sure whether to go with Steppe Lynx or Loam Lion), and it is pretty darn solid.
How often do you...
So I guess to start off, look into getting 4x Flooded Strand (more fetches to follow), 4x Swords to Plowshares (to replace the condemns), and another win condition of some sort (like Elspeth, Jace...
Well seeing as U/W control type decks are nothing new in legacy, I would normally say go do a search for U/W/x landstill or U/W control. However, based simply off of your list (please do not be...
@Lordofthepit: very good analysis. Combo is scarier than ever for us not because it is faster, but because it is no longer dependent on life totals.
So how do we adapt to this? How could Zoo...
Oh yea no kidding. I mean it was just a suggestion. In metas with a lot of sneak attack/show and tell it might actually be viable because it basically neuters their deck. Correct me if I'm wrong...
Normally I would agree, but Journey to Nowhere/O Ring don't hit Progenitus. Plus I guess on a minor note, Humility allows you to kill the creature if they bounce/destroy the enchantment.
@CorpT: I would love to run survival, but the main reason I never would is because I don't want to shell out money for a loyal retainers. Without the Loyal Retainers+Iona combo, I don't think...
Righteous War would still mean that he would have to remove all his auras.
I remember playing this in standard before zendikar came out. Although it was halfway decent then, it simply will not work in legacy. The plethora of auras that this deck runs gives you huge card...
Some minor poinst I would like to make in regards to defending the use of Qasali Pridemage. First, I use 2 of him (plus 1 Predator) instead of Ponder, because I feel that we need more 2cc cards for...
Yea I am really disappointed in the card-especially cause I really like the art. There was a mockup of the card which had him as a U/R card that would have been so much more interesting. Lame.
Ok so just got back from a smaller tournament (like 13-18 people or so). It has been a while since i have played in such an event/I have never played anywhere that was this competitive/I am totally...
Lol, yea that does sound kinda janky. Cool though too-what might I remove for it? Also, how did you come up with +7 cards, -6 opponent?
This is the current list I was originally working towards, but lately I have felt that something was a little wrong with it: it feels both underpowered and inconsistent (while I realize that Sedris...
Well it was just an idea: something I will definitely test if I ever get the chance to do so. I must say though, I do like the idea of looter also because I sometimes find it hard to keep Grunt...
I hate to make suggestions which are untested, but testing is kinda hard for me (no one around me plays legacy, and I can't get MWS due to hardware issues), but I have been thinking about possible...
I am curious about the recent success of Pro+countertop lists when compared to Supreme blue lists. I was initially of the opinion that supreme blue had a better chance against the current metagame...
