More controling versions of Counterblance decks has been playing some cards at 4cc for a while. Mystic Enforcer, Sower of Temptation, Elspeth and Natural Order comes to my mind as the one I did in...

That's correct. I may have poorly written that sentence, but what I wanted to say is: It's correct to wait 1 more mana to cast Natural Order to be able to fetch for dryad, and immediatly sacrifices...

There has been a couple of guys asking me about the deck, and how it plays. While I do not consider myself as a pro CB top player, I have a couple of experiences I wanted to share with everyone. So...

@SB: I think you are right. I would do 3 Grip/2 E.E./4 GYH/2 Thwart/1 Llawan/3 Blasts

@CB/TOP: When speaking of legacy, I generally do not listen too much to pro players, due to their lack of play...

It's really underplayed here, in Montreal, so I never thought the MU could be anyhow hard. You guys are right about adding Hydroblasts. I just hate dedicating so much slots to generic aggro when...

Speaking of Supreme Blue w/ NO, I found the MD pretty much set, except from the fact we are in need of a card that can manages artifacts and enchantements.

Depending on the metagame, Backdr0p and...

I'll try to summerize the idea behind each cards in sideboard:

// Sideboard
SB: 2 Krosan Grip
SB: 1 Ancient Grudge
SB: 1 Trygon Predator
SB: 2 Tormod's Crypt
SB: 2 Thwart
SB: 2 Relic of...

I played Supreme Blue w/ NO this week-end and went 5-2 at Jupiter dual for duals.

Backdr0p and me basicly took Justin's list but changed WOB for Wall of roots. We found them REALLY good all day...

I'll test it both MD and Side. It certainly helps against Landstill and he's generaly good with CB but I'm just not sure yet if a 4cc that doesn't have that much an impact on the board will make the...

By speaking uniquely by the card itself, yes, Firespout might works as you said, but in regards of our entirely deck, it doesn't. Generelly our goal is to assemble CB+Top and land a Goyf or a Rhox...

You are speaking about Aggro-Loam while I do about 43 lands, which is not the same deck. Then, yes, Sower is very good against Aggro-Loam.

Your comment about Trap reminds me why I was playing...

Aggro Loam and 43 Lands had a really great succes yesterday in St-Louis for the last SCG open of this year. The latter has seen a lot of TOP8 this year and I'm pretty sure everybody should now have...

You need better cards and a game plan against them, some people are trying to go with the aggro way, adding Gaddock teeg to their team to slow them. I won only 1 match due to this strategy against...

@Shimi:


No, I didn't. I really feel a control deck doesn't need ponder. It needs shuffle effects for top and BS, yes, but that's why we are playing 8 fetches. I always slow play them to wait for...

I made a couple of tweaks with Brass' list and now have 4 Fire/Ice as spots removal MD and I'm currently trying out Grim lavamancers in SB. This is directly aiming to beat merfolks.

P-M

Only 3 CB? 4 non-islands lands with 2 shackles? I can't understand this setup, seriously.

I've been playing with probasco's list for a couple of weeks since the GP and felt in love with this more controlish aspect of aggro-control. With Merfolk as a regular DTB, I felt I was needing...
