    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    It is cool to be able to tutor (Entomb) for Syphon Life, and it is better to Loam into the graveyard than an Enchantment, but at five mana a turn to Loam and Syphon it is harder to establish earlier...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    With Entomb, I would add in a darkblast in the side. Pithing Needle for Jace, Stage, Relic etc. Toxic Deluge, maybe another Deed in the side. Coffin Purge is good with Entomb as well. Krosan Grip...

    What was your list at GP Vegas. Have you changed it any based on the tournament experience?

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    I would think you would want at least 3 Collective Brutality with Loam. I've typically had a list close to jredelstein but always have some alternate versions to test. I'm maxing out on the Loam,...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    And you can imagine how insane Collective Brutality is with Life From the Loam and a bunch of Bloodghasts. You get all three modes early and often discarding lands. Makes a nice counterpart to the...

    I have one in the sideboard of Loam Pox, because I also run a couple of Entomb.

    Looks Nasty as Hell. Good luck. They're gonna hate playing you as all Pox players love as one of the great attractions of playing the deck.

    Looks an excellent build. I look forward to trying it with Faith of the Devoted in my similar list. I run three Entomb, so we will see if Faith out of the board can beat Entomb Golgari Brownscale...

    That's a good point, would be good with Bloodghasts, even if a little clunky with Loam and Factory.

    I tried using Mox Diamonds in place of Pernicious Deed, but after a few games it became apparent that in that style of build I needed the boardwipe ability later in the game much more than I needed...

    I could see how it works vs Innocent Blood, which one is most useful in most situations encountered. I like the idea of targeting Deathrite Shaman above all. The second clause would probably only get...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    True enough. At some point you'd be better off sleeving up Lands or Turbo Depths. I made sure in my Depths Pox games to ensure they had no hand for any surprises to disrupt my combo, or no white land...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    Yeah, Cabal Therapy could be very good too, though it is harder to see the hand as well with only Collective Brutality instead of Thoughtseize or G Probe. I think replacing a Raven's Crime or two...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    My problem with it was getting people down to 9 life or so with traditional Pox stuff and Factories, and then a combo for 20pts. to win. Great, you won, I guess that worked efficiently. Having...

    You are right , and I've moved Cabal Pit in and out of the deck, mostly in order to have a second Swamp. But maybe the other person was right in that with Mox Diamonds you could stabilize Mana...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    That's pretty much the way you have to play it.

    The other thing you can do, and I've done this before in Loam Pox builds that really need the Loam is to use a Sensei's Divining Top or two, and...

    It's true that Lands is the best lands and Turbo Depths gets Marit Lage out fastest, but I like the disruption and pressure of Pox style. I've played Turbo Depths, and I just came back to keeping the...

    Urza's was most powerful block.

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Pox

    That's a nice deck. Good to see a Loam Pox pop up again. I've always wanted to use Vengeful Pharaoh, but I guess I never had it tuned right in testing I guess, opting for a Bloodghast instead, but...
