    Re: The Buyers/Traders Remorse Thread

    I cracked a foil Tarmogoyf when Future Sight first came out. I quickly traded it for two non-foil goyfs because I was in a hurry to get a set of four. At that time, goyf was not worth very much. ...

    Except that there's another five-mana goblin that combos with Sharpshooter and doesn't require you to spend W and B, puts three additional goblins on the battlefield and can send direct damage...

    Re: [Deck] Reanimator

    Yes, I played your version of the deck around 2011, but I found the deck to be much better when I cut them and opted to add ponder. I stand by my statement that it is impossible for the deck to be...

    It is not possible that your consistency improved when you took out Ponder for Hapless Researcher. If you think it did, it can only be because you do not know how to play Ponder properly. Did you...

    Re: [Deck] Reanimator

    The problem with Hapless Researcher is that it is the third-best card for putting creatures in the graveyard for UB, and this deck does not need that many discard outlets. If you substitute your...

    Eidolon has made a huge difference in this deck. I remember when the card was first spoiled, I said on this thread that it belongs in the maindeck, but nobody agreed with me at the time. I think...

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    You want to assemble your Top/Counterbalance combo ASAP. It really shuts them down. Hopefully, you have a StP or Terminus to deal with Shusher. It's also a good idea to fetch for basics so you...

    Re: Daze on the draw

    The general rule of thumb is to board out Daze on the draw because it becomes a much weaker card. You can't use it as a "free counter" on your opponent's turn one and your opponent is more likely to...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Burn

    Right, nobody played Pillar maindeck because it didn't have legs and couldn't beat in for an additional two damage a turn. A 2/2 for 2 is only rubbish if it's a vanilla bear. You need to test...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Burn

    I think that Eidolon goes in the main deck for Burn. Over 90% of the spells cast in Legacy are 3 cc or less. You are essentially doing two damage to your opponent almost everytime he casts a spell,...

    Yeah, how often are you going to want Godsend over Sword of Fire and Ice? Sword costs one less to equip and will sometimes get online a turn earlier. It can ignore True-Name, draw cards, and deal...

    Re: Your most Epic Punts

    I showed my hand to my opponent after he resolved a turn 1 Cabal Therapy and BEFORE he named a card. For some reason, I thought he had cast Thoughtseize instead.

    Yeah, you are right. I think the arrival of True-Name Nemesis into the format hurt Elves. This is not because Elves fears playing directly against TNN, as the deck can easily outrace it. It's...

    Re: [Deck] Death and Taxes

    Only if you don't have Aether Vial. Aether Vial on 3 plus Mangara plus Karakas is good times. Also, this deck ends up playing the control role more often than the beatdown and has a good late game...

    Re: [Deck] Deadguy Ale (B/w Confidant)

    I agree. To add to that, Weathered Wayfarer also works much better in decks that run Aether Vial as a non-land de-facto mana source.

    Re: [SCD] Spirit of the Labyrinth

    The problem with Spirit is that it's often just going to be a 3/1 for 2 that dies to enchantment hate. How often will you actually prevent your opponent from drawing extra cards with it? It doesn't...
