    Alright, I'll troll myself.

    Without writing a bunch of paragraphs.. It's a 3 card combo, 1 of which can be GSZ or Noble, one of which can be GSZ or Excavator or Courser....

    A) I haven't used her but she seems a house. Try it out?
    B) He's good because he's CA and it's *now*. Like Snapcaster or similar, he gains you a card even if your opponent has removal right now....

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I think if going this route a 1x Crop makes sense. Adds +1 to your wasteland count and your GQ count. I think the GQ route is *much* more powerful with the Exploration though. Even a deck with 4-5...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Fair enough, though it also works quite well with Courser, and if you're running 4 GSZ, Ex, and Courser; you have quite a lot of chances to set up explosive T2 or T3's. Exploration speeding up the...

    I'll probably try him in Bant instead, but I think he might well make Exploration a much better card. Being able to do something like "Explore, Noble, go; Waste (for daze protection), Excavator, pop...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Something to note: Rallier is also tempo advantage; which is overlooked. The reason he's good is that he's a 3/2 Shardless Agent with better selection, not because he's a 3/2 Coiling Oracle.

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    It looks like it's 8 (minus GSZ stuff) which is fine when you have 12 ramps, even 8 ramps is quite fine. I've ran 8 3-drops in Junk with only DRS as the ramper I think.

    I think that's the point...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    While (whenever it was) I was harping about Mom, it was mostly that it is non-synergistic with the deck's core principle of "Ramp into dudes, GSZ for bullets" and because she's slow. IMO; while...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I really don't get why so many people get uptight about card 61. It's splitting the difference between one more land and one more business card, almost exactly. And once you're in Green lists that...

    Depending how deep you want to go, I *really* enjoyed having Young Pyromancer in Pfire/Loam (1-2 of) engine decks. Takes that card to a whole new level where you're not only gumming up the board and...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    Agreed. I've locked out a couple grixis players by naming human (delver/pyro/lavaman/swiftspear/soul-scar) and I use it as an anti TNN card because it kills *this one* and all future TNNs until...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I like EPlague personally (Tutor-board), in part because it often not only kills 1-2 guys now, but it often requires them to GSZ (a win con) for RecSage, which dies as it lands meaning that you...

    Mav's whole problem is a mix between Terminus and Storm. I think Silence or Children of Korlis in the side would be a fine way to keep Storm from stealing games without God hands. Discard can be a...

    Personally I always like Cabal Pit. I often ran a 1-of Loam with it since Loam and KotR sometimes fill similar roles. Fetchable kill card for Crusader and Mom always felt good, and killing DRS or...

    Because SoLaS is much better against the field if you're putting it in the main:
    * Recurring dudes is CA
    * Pro Black => Angler/Lage/Grisel/etc can't get you
    * Pro White + Black => No legacy...

    Re: [Deck] GW/x Maverick

    I'd honestly cut a KotR for the QPM you desire. That's still *7* KotR in the maindeck. I don't think you'll hardly notice.

    On worthwhile repeatable removal:
    * Dudes who do it:
