Sorry about your bad luck :P

The RUG thing is unfortunate and is why I've been able to justify Factories for a while (currently running 2). What's your current list? I had to squeeze in Factories...

I went 5-1-1 then lost to the biggest bullshit technicality on the planet. Report + explanation will ensue after tomorrow, once I've got more time. Met like all the other Lands players though, which...

Oh, awesome. I was also at SCG Cincy. I am also attending GP Indy.

No.



Would you play Merfolk without Islands?



Tapping 5 mana is absolutely terrible for the deck because it means you can't be doing anything else. Some builds make a ton of mana but by...

Great. I can help on that part too; I'm slowly pimping Lands. I'll PM you what I have so far.



It doesn't look terrible. I'm not sure about the power of a singleton Raven's Crime, though it...

Crop Rotation is simply another version of the deck that people like to capitalize on, just like the E-Tutor or Intuition variants. I think the last version I saw that used Crop Rotation was also an...

1. Lands was my "dream deck" when I first got into the format, and now that I've actually built it, I find it to be the most fun deck I've ever played. Plus, it's quite solid in the current meta, and...

That feels right to me. Running Urborg itself might honestly even be appropriate. Having an online Stronghold seems like the first step on the way to winning.

Yup. I was running 1 Top/1 Intuition...

It's pretty matchup dependent, but in almost every matchup, I board out the following:

2 Manabond
1 Exploration
1 Karakas

In any MU with Snapcaster, I can take out 1 Life From the Loam to...

You don't like MD Bog? Really? Every single deck I played against used its graveyard:

RUG (2) - Snapcaster
Bant - Snapcaster, Knight of the Reliquary
UW and Esper Blade - Snapcaster
Blue Zoo -...

Tournament Report for SCG Cincinnati:

I went to SCG Cincinnati over the weekend and played Lands, as usual. There were just under 300 people there IIRC (636 for Standard!!!) and we had 9 rounds....

I've done it. I'm not that comfortable with it. For one, if E-Tutor gets the counter-extract treatment, then I'm fine with it, because that means my Loams and Wastes are that much safer. For two,...

I know, but it just feels terrible having a card that I bring in for ONE matchup MAYBE in game 3. I don't feel comfortable just bringing K-Grip in blind against UW Blade because they "might" be...

I have only played against Explorer-Zenith once, but I managed to do ok. I'm running a maindeck Bojuka Bog, and while they're not graveyard based, they get a lot of value out of things like E-Witness...

Eh, "hoses" is too strong of a word. Just the GSZ part, but I think it's significant enough to warrant a board slot, especially since it can be boarded in against Storm running Past In Flames and any...

Thanks man! Zuran Orb maindeck has almost always been good. In the past, it's allowed me to gain life out of Storm range and has totally won the game against things like UR Snapburn. Managing to set...

Time for my tournament report from Star City Games: Los Angeles. I ran this list:

Spells(24)
4x Exploration
4x Life from the Loam
4x Mox Diamond
3x Enlightened Tutor
2x Manabond
2x Sensei's...

I've always been running 4 Diamonds. I don't need the full set of Manabonds with E-Tutor. And I've never felt the need for a "quicker kill," and definitely not enough to dilute the manabase with...

Treasure Hunt is cool, but it's been determined pretty intensely that you really want to run as few nonartifact, nonland spells as possible in this deck, and Treasure Hunt would really be win-more a...

Too slow, especially since they're going to hold the combo in the hand for as long as possible unless it looks like they can t1 stone t2 painter t3 win. Not to mention you'd only want to run it as a...

Hi guys - new to MTGTheSource but not to the game or Lands. Just came over because the Lands thread in Salvation gets little to no attention at best.

I also lose to Painter Stone (Land, Combo Part...
