I like your thought process here. I went pretty hard on the retrace plan because Raven's Crime is actually quite good. It gives you early game disruption and a soft lock late game. Of course, I've...
It's pretty exciting to see another Tortured Existence list floating around. Ever since the MTGO policy change regarding Pauper queues, this format has been a little difficult to follow.
Anyway,...
Thanks, my dude!
Link: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gitrog-land-combo/. Like I said, this is the competitive version of the deck that won Worlds 2017. There is an abundance of information in...
Yes, you need a discard effect. Like Dice_Box mentioned, you can exploit the discard step by having more than 7 cards in hand, discarding to the clean up phase, drawing off Gitrog, and then...
While I agree with you that watching uniformed players pilot this deck is a pain, there is a lot of misinformation regarding this deck. I hope that doesn't stop anyone from playing it because it's...
This is my current list which has been pulled back pretty hard on power level to help it be more interactive with a standard EDH group. You get to play some pretty fun cards while being relevant...
Multiplayer normal ban list. French is pretty fast and disruptive and you can get buried under discard/removal. The number of opponents doesn't really matter (outside of interactions like...
You seem to have a lot of the pieces for a Karador, Ghost Chieftain deck. The deck is very flexible and acts as a midrange/grindy shell with a combo finish. It's also one of the top five...
I think it's good and Voidslime is really good because it's so flexible. I will likely try and find a spot for both in the deck.
As a side note, it's weird that Wizards has been pulling back the...
@Davran: I agree with everything you said and nearly posted the same thing this morning but I felt it made me sound too bitter, haha. I will say that partner is a brilliant mechanic in the fact that...
I think if you're still running Proteus Staff, Blightsteel Colossus is fine. If you manage to take an extra turn, you can probably put a player out of the game. I cut both Jin-Gitaxias and Tyrant...
It's earned a spot in my deck. The card is extremely solid and bolsters our late game by acting as another "win" condition.
The pickings are pretty slim for us. I didn't see anything that...
I definitely like this card because it looks like it would play well with this version of Talrand. I do have a few reservations, though.
It's not an instant or sorcery. The deck is currently...
Edric is still as good as he ever was. The only thing this list lost was Erayo, Soratami Ascendant when the Rules Commitee merged the "banned as a commander" and the general ban list. That was an...
I managed to test Seasons Past and it actually worked fairly well. I got a pile of:
Tormod's Crypt
Sol Ring
Demonic Tutor
Anguished Unmaking
Replenish
Door to Nothingness
Austere Command...
I managed to test a few games this weekend with a slight change to the deck:
- Proteus Staff
- Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur
- Tidespout Tyrant
+ Back to Basics
+ Unsubstantiate
+ Delay
If I were to remove the Proteus Staff package, Temporal Trespass would be the first card to get a slot simply to bolster the time magic up to six for a little more consistency.
Unified Will is...
That's the same conclusion I came to. Global pump like Gauntlet of Power is better because it adds about the same amount of damage while also supercharging your mana base.
I'm not really sure...
Seasons Past is very interesting. I totally passed right over that in the spoiler. I can see where it would be able to hit a card all the way from 0 to 6 CMC pretty consistently mid- to late-game. ...
The short answer is yes.
The deck wins by chaining time magic off draw triggers from Keep Watch, Coastal Piracy, and Bident of Thassa. Five iterations seems to be the sweet spot due to tutors,...
This is a mentality I hear a lot. Yes, Tooth and Nail is a thing and it tends to end the game on the spot. But there are cards that exist to stop shenanigans - Torpor Orb and the creature variants,...
This format tends to chase its tail a bit in terms of combos that win the game and things that stop said combos. As soon as someone figures out how to deal with something, it becomes an arms race to...
I see what you're trying to do and it's probably worth a test slot. My reservations are that it's not an instant or sorcery which have a higher than average impact with Talrand and that it doesn't...
Good points. I forgot about Muddle the Mixture. That card is incredibly flexible in this shell.
Another good point. I'd say maybe accept the loss to Stony Silence but that's probably not...
