Thanks for the reply - makes sense. Good luck in the testing - if I can find time, I might do some as well.

Definitely a good concept. After spending a year on various Stoneblade decks to tighten up my game, I'm hesitant to think that Stoneblade will magically be well-positioned now that Miracles is gone....
It resulted in the Dark Souls 1 PC port.
I run/ran a build similar to the Miyazima List, except I run 3 PoP 3 Daze instead of 2 PoP, 4 Daze and my sideboard was a little different for my meta. I see more Legend Miracles in my meta than...
To flesh this out a little more, the difference between older UR Delver variants and the current incarnation is all about maximizing Prowess triggers. You often want to be saving your instant-speed...
That's pretty much my point - if you want to run Stifle, I think Bant just does the tempo strategy better, mostly due to Noble Hierarch.
While I understand what you meant, I don't think it's out of the question at all to run a Tempo Deathblade strategy, especially since players have run it that way in the past. My only question is if...
I've begun testing with Dave Patwell's list and absolutely love it so far. I expect to be tinkering with it for a long time. Has anyone else been playing with it?
@Barook: I'd much prefer it to just be Karn vs Phyrexian carnage. The whole Superfriends thing is getting old - we need to see some Karn vs Bolas too. Dominaria is ripe for new lore, alternate...
Agreed. I'm all for either:
1) Switching the story to where we left Karn in New Phyrexia
Or
2) A return to Dominaria
There was a list a while back than ran a pretty successful (made top 8's) miracles package of Thunderous Wrath and Temporal Mastery. The package run was like 3-4-of's. In my own build, I ended up...
Back when I was a pure aggro player, I found this deck could be explosive with the synergy between Zektar Shrine Expedition and Boros Charm. Pushing through a 7/1 with trample and haste, then giving...
Well, if True-Name Nemesis really becomes a thing, expect to see more Engineered Plague, Toxic Deluge, and possibly Black Sun's Zenith in sideboards, as those will be best ways to deal with him...
This is my thinking too - that functional reprints other than shocklands are going to be released. That would make more sense, otherwise collectors would be up in arms; either that, or they're going...
There is no official statement about 4 - I've tried to find ANY shred of info supporting it, but have turned up absolutely nothing. That's why I put it as "Paranoia....?" This shopkeeper is...
A couple things come to mind with these price increases:
1) Legacy is becoming more popular (in my view) as it is shown it has a great metagame at the moment.
2) GP Washington, DC is coming up...
I was running this deck for a while in my local metagame. One card that really needs attention for testing is Zektar Shrine Expedition. I've had some devastating turn 3 and 4 plays with an active...
That list is closer to what I expected UWR lists that don't run the Stone Blade package to gravitate towards. I really see this becoming a midrange deck instead of a tempo deck. With Jund...
Replying specifically to bolded parts: I tried testing Figure of Destiny in a U/W tempo build before, but I just didn't like it. The difference between U/W and UWR builds are that you have more...
Grunt sounds cool, but like you I really don't like the anti-synergy with Lavamancer to the point where we have to cut Lavamancer completely. Figure of Destiny has been thrown around a little bit in...
I'm suggesting Electrickery more for sb efficiency than anything else, assuming you'd be seeing both Jund and Canadian Thresh on a regular basis. It's a way around an early Mongoose to stall until...
Regarding Nimble Mongoose and Lingering Souls, there are sideboard options available to hit both. I actually really like Sulfur Elemental a lot because it takes care of Lingering Souls and gives...
Considering how the Legacy build is actually more countermagic-oriented compared to the Modern build, that makes more sense now. I was seeing bolts more as part of the removal suite, as in the...
Well, I'd rather burn a DRS or other threat rather than StP or Path any day of the week. When I wrote that, I had late game with an opponent having an active Goyf or Tombstalker in mind; StP would...
1) Rest in Peace is nice in the sb with this list, as it wrecks most graveyard-based strategies. Between that and Tormod's Crypt, there shouldn't be much issue. In Modern, we frequently run Relic...
