    Whether it seems worth it or not, it's putting up results. I would not discount it so easily.

    I think it's more so your Knight doesn't get Dazed against RUG Delver. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks interesting.

    I think its inclusion is solely because it's easier to cast than Elspeth with Cavern of Souls in play.

    I have some super secret tech I will be trying this weekend in Nashville. Choke has been terrible for me the last three or so tournaments, so I am doing something a little different.

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    I've contemplated a Harmonic Sliver in the sideboard at times (or even maindeck). Especially since people are playing more Cursed Totem.

    It may come full circle. The metagame is becoming increasingly inbred at the moment so many lists are just loading up on hatebears.

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    I feel like you need to add an extra mana-producing land if you're playing Thalia. Also, yeah, SoLaS is a boss. I'll probably still play it and 2x Jitte, honestly.

    I'm still on the fence in...

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    I could see a third Jitte being good, but there are honestly only a couple of flex slots in the maindeck. With many decks moving away from Stoneforge, just how necessary is Aven Mindcensor? It always...

    I think the idea is to land a Canonist and swords their guys until you can get Linvala in play.

    The hilarious part is that a lot of the newer Maverick builds have cut SFM for Thalia and more Jitte. Banning Stoneforge might actually just make Maverick better.

    Well then, shit. I guess brace for bannings? lol

    Which brings me to another subject - EVERY TIME I PLAY A DECK IN LEGACY SOMETHING IN IT GETS BANNED. >:(

    Re: [DTB] GW/x Maverick

    EE is excellent at the moment with Belcher rearing its ugly heady, but I'm not sure it's needed against Esper Blade. Troll Ascetic with a sword on it utterly and completely ruins that deck.

    Who said anything about only using it to Ooze people? Yes, it's awesome when you can blow out their Knights, but most often it is used to cast an equipment and equip it in the same turn to break a...

    Why wouldn't you run a Cradle in the first place? That card is bonkers.

    Ooze is solid enough to play a third one. I think if you choose to go that route, the third Ooze takes the place of one of the flex slots in the deck where generally you see things like Silhana...

    Honestly, just play it the same way you normally would, only instead of fetching equipment, ditch your more situational dudes for better ones. And if you get the chance, Elesh Norn them.

    This just in, folks - All of your lists are wrong. Thrun is a bad card in this deck, because RUG will never let you cast it after burning all of your creatures, countering all of your spells, blowing...

    Honestly, though, it's just a terrible matchup. Rhox doesn't help. Finks doesn't help. If they know what they're doing, you'll gain life exactly once and then they'll kill you....

    Pros: you get a bit of late-game reach and can deal with irritating creatures like Delver, Stoneforge Mystic and Mother of Runes a little better than other decks.

    Cons: Your manabase becomes...
