Well if we ever wanted to improve the Death and Taxes match-up (LOL):

Yeah, we would need things that could remain on the board after a Terminus. That is partly what WR Packmaster does because it has a "leaves the battlefield" trigger. Those are really the only kind of...

Best of luck to everyone who will be battling through in Lille with the little green men. I am gutted not to be able to get there myself. May Titania be with you!

That said: I expect some Top 8...

I don't think it is good either but that would be its application. I can't imagine using it for anything else. Plus, I would be drawing to one of my three MD Sages :)

Get ready for the Grindtasm!

This kills: Flipped Delver, Vendillion Clique, SFM, 'Goyf, Tasigur, Bob, Young Pyromancer. Anything else?

Evolutionary Leap could have some application against sweepers I suppose: in response to Terminus I reload my hand. It is a lot more reactive than Sylvan Library which it would be competing with so I...

All these Elves might make me want to play Standard for the first time in a long while. Someone slap me already.

Loads of new Elves to play with. My I present Elvish Ringleader:

The goal was to fit in more Sages because we need weapons against our bad match-ups that are running all over the meta at the moment. This is built along the lines Lemnear was discussing a couple of...

It is the whole package of stats together that makes this interesting. It shores up Delver and Burn match-ups and assists in match-ups where we find ourselves going for beats more often. It is not...

They just gave us Reclamation Sage. If we had designed that card ourselves the only change would have been an extra point of toughness so we can recur after destroying E. Plague.

Mind you, I was...

Lemnear, you have inspired me to try the Sages. I think you are right that we need to adapt to the rise of Miracles and OmniTell or fade into obscurity. This might change by the end of the year but...

I'm not so hot on the Chokes but if they work for your Meta then three copies is at least one too many. The trouble is that multiple copies on board do nothing additional and you have no way to...

I play him main pretty much always and have sometimes shaved the 2nd Hoof rather than cutting Main Ruric but I am strongly against Taiga unless you have a Red SB (which I have little experience...

If DRS is proving as unreliable as you think he is as a mana source, which is his primary role, the answer might be to cut down on him to put in Llanowar/Fyndhorn/Mystics (Tap-Green or TG Elves) and...

I play with main deck Ruric and think the Taiga is completely unnecessary for him. Having access to him with NO as early as T2 (although usually T3) against Storm, Burn or G1 against Delver where...
