    Re: Crushing GP Paris

    I know, right? D&T doesn't stand a chance against a deck packing a bunch of Sulfur Elementals, Pyroclasms and a fast combo kill. Bonus points for being a monocolor deck that can get completely locked...

    Re: [DTB] Sneak and Show

    Went 3-1-1 in swiss (beating poorly played RUG, Elves, and Omnishow, losing the mirror and IDing with something), then beating manaless dredge, Maverick, and UWR Delver to win a box of Modern Masters...

    Re: Melekombo

    The problem with Grapeshot is it's only good when it's winning the game. If you ever just draw it you are gonna be a sad panda. I cut Power Artifact and Severence/Belcher for the same reason. I find...

    Re: Melekombo

    My Melek list is built to be a pretty unfair combo deck. Generally games go tutor for high tide -> Get lots of Mana -> Chain Draw 7s into ether Mind's Desire, Enter the Infinite or Temple Bell/Mind...

    Re: Questions about my first tournament

    Best piece of advice anyone can give you- Don't play Death and Taxes.

    Other than that just remember its just magic. There is nothing fundamentally different from any other match. The tournament...

    Re: Sleeves

    KMC perfects plus KMC Mattes have given me the best results. Ultra Pro are absolute garbage, and Dragon Shields, while not garbage, are much worse than KMCs. I do not understand the draw to dragon...
  9. Re: What card do you think is good against blue?

    Asking what cards are good against blue shows a fundamental lack of understanding how competitive magic works. Reanimator, Merfolk, Rug, Landstill and High Tide are all blue based decks, but they...

    Re: [Bragging] Pimp Legacy Decks

    Apparently both Jace (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDqo7YEpdso) and Tarmogoyf (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHhL_1S0ee4) disagree :P

    I sure hope they never make a functionally better Mold Demon. I'm sure the pro Reserve list guys would lose their shit.

    Re: [M13] Ajani, Caller of the pride

    I think you are confusing staple with unplayable.
    Berserk sees basically no play, so at triple the cost I doubt it will see much more. Its first ability is pretty underwhelming. Its ultimate is...

    Re: Most difficult deck to pilot?

    I think something with Doomsday has the steepest learning curve, but once you've memorized a bunch of piles it gets a lot easier. One of the High Tide decks is probably the most difficult to play...
  15. Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 20th at SCG Providence with Sneak Attack

    Don't get stifled. Seriously- a stifle on your Draw 7 is a beating, as it is on your Annihilator trigger. Post board you have Blood Moon, and they have 0 basics, making it another must counter card-...
  16. Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 20th at SCG Providence with Sneak Attack

    Awesome report, one thing though- The Pact of Negation that was misdirected to the Misdirection would have been countered on resolution (as the spell it was targetting had already resolved) and he...

    First with Breakfast in Chile

    Played in a 17 man event for a pile of Judge foils and ended up taking it with Cephalid Breakfast. I played:

    My first 2 decks were Solidarity and RG Goblins when Tin Street Hooligan was all the rage (right before Tarmogoyf was released). Unfortunately instead of picking up a set of Goyf I spent a semester...

    Re: New to legacy- any advice?

    Play a deck with Brainstorm is the best advice I can give to an aspiring legacy mage. Whether you're digging for Ritauls or Force of Wills you can't really go wrong.

    Re: Is it safe to unban Oath of Druids now?

    In the event it where unbanned you would have to draw both parts of the combo because pretty much all decks that currently rely on creatures would become completely unplayable.

    Re: Is it safe to unban Oath of Druids now?

    This has to be trolling. Oath costs 2 mana and requires 1 or 2 fatties in the deck while Sneak Attack requires 5 mana and a fattie in hand, AND that still can just die to no disruption from the...

    Re: Dark Ascension in Legacy

    Feels like 2 card, 8 mana should be winning the game, not plague winding. Though if that is you thing it also works with Sundial of the Infinite (probably in CMDR.)

    Re: [SCD] Crop Rotation

    As with all the 1 mana tutors you can basically go 2 different routes with it: Fair or unfair.

    Fair: In a deck like Maverick it can be used to turn superfluous mana sources into more powerful...
