Yeah, ok, that makes sense to me then. Just wanted to clarify that I'm not that guy who accidentally stumbled across this primer and tellin' you what's right and wrong. I appreciate your answers,...

Eh, what....would you please point me to the part where you suspect me to claim something like that or where I state anything to be fact contrary to the present common sense? Like in "Hey, fools, I...

:eek:
Oh boy.....good morning....nuff said. Thank you!

I am sure the answer is somewhere out there, but wasn't able to find it, so hopefully some kind ashen one might explain to a poor soul why Sylvan Scrying is played over Living Wish?

Both are 2cmc...

This looks very close to my own list, therefor I like it (with a few exceptions).

First of all: I'd play the 4th Petal over a 2nd Chrome Mox anytime all the time. It's card disadvantage and with 4...

Yeah, this could be a bummer. On the other hand: is it worse than Containment Priest at the same speed? Or R.I.P.?

If you want to play Careful Study over Faithless Looting, you are in the wrong thread. The mana base should never ever be an issue for B/R. The idea to bypass gy hate with Gambits and S & T is not...

So, did anyone try Grim Lavamancer? I stumbled over this list in a reddit thread about lavaman and obviously I was wrong about it (I still think it's not that good vs D&T though). I'd appreciate some...

To whom it may concern:

//Lands
4 Bloodstained Mire
3 Marsh Flats
3 Badlands
2 Scrubland
1 Plateau
1 Swamp

For Dnt you'd rather go with Inkwell Leviathan or Archetype of Endurance.

I found the blog post: here

From my experience I can recommend the blue proactive sideboard plan for the reasons you mentioned. Bypassing the hate is way more straight forward than answering it and hoping to draw the right...

Thank you for writing the primer! I like the attitude to play weird, but cool cards in order to punish the plebs with style and do them a tergo. I'll keep all eight eyes on this.

No, this was just an example for a card I'd try before considering Lavamancer against DnT. But it's obsolete anyway, because this is an okay MU imho, so I would rather try to improve other MUs.
...

DnT plays R.I.P, so Lavamancer is probably just a lonely goblin token. If you find yourself in a attrition war with DnT, you are most likely losing anyway. I'd rather jam Phyrexian Crusader, if...

It's a dead card against R.I.P. or Leylines of the Void. When I consider cards for SB, I'm looking for silver bullets or cards improving a certain match up. What do you have in mind to bring...

Good luck, Judas! :tongue:

Grid is a good sideboard option in reactive metas. It not only taxes countermagic, but hate like Surgicals, too.

I'll second using Cabal Therapy. I play it for almost a year and I can tell it is really good. It combos nice with Ashen Rider and in fringe situations it's even entomb'able. I wouldn't recommend to...

But the guy above my post obviously did. :wink:



I'd agree that it's not bad against Miracles in particular, but still: straight forward hexproof or shroud is still better against StP and/or...

Drawing cards while they combo off doesn't do anything for BR against Storm. Why would you waste a slot for them anyway? Storm is already one of our best match ups. It's probably not bad for UB or...

This would require more dedication in form of LEDs and so on. My mainboard is pretty stock, except of one Cabal Therapy instead of the 4th Collective Brutality and Ashen Rider instead of Tidespout...

Interesting list! What do you board for Pyromancer?

I've had some good results recently by utilizing a Burning Wish sideboard. It's relatively easy to board without diluting the main strategy too...

Please explain how it's more likely to ritual out sth. through a hatebear vs. cheating Elesh Norn onto the board. Apart from being screwed anyway when a bunch of hatebears are already sticking...

Iona is sometimes able to lock the opponent game 1. The same is true for Elesh against some decks, so it depends on the meta you expect to face. I prefer Elesh, because it's nice to have a board wipe...

I'd recommend to prepare for Leyline of the Void as well.
