    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    RE: mass removal - I've played a lot of different options over the past few years with the deck, and have settled on 1x Pyrokinesis and 1x Sudden Demise as the best asymmetric sweepers. I need...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    100% agree with IamHANDSOME. Obviously we are biased given that we're posting in this thread, but I believe UR is within a couple percentage points of Grixis Delver in terms of power, but just...

    Played at the 66-player NRG Championship Trial today - failed to repeat a good performance, finished 3-3 this time around. A couple mistakes and some hands a little on the weaker side (mulled 10 out...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    Stormchaser Mage vs. Young Pyromancer is a tough one, and people have certainly had success both ways. I think the best approach is to play whichever best fits your playstyle and where you like to be...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    Hey all, thanks! My opinion is that UR Delver continues much as it has the past 5+ years (disregarding the Treasure Cruise blip) - a solid tier 2 deck that is very underrated, and can compete with...

    Tournament report from Nerd Rage Gaming Legacy Championship Trial, 2/10/18, 79 players. This was my first NRG CT, and I was really impressed with the venue and the event. Super smooth, great...

    Finished 5-1-1 + top 4 in the NRG Legacy CT today - lots of fun running the deck all day. Got a bit of our deck on stream, too bad both my camera matches were pretty lackluster - combination of a...

    Re: [Deck] U/R Delver

    I find D&T to be one of the hardest matchups for UR Delver - I'm 2-9 lifetime against mono-white D&T with UR, despite being 55% overall against the field. 2-1 against RW, so 28% if I combine them. So...

    [Deck] U/R Delver

    Cool list, Hanni. I'm very into burn-heavy lists like this one right now to try go under all the blue DRS decks.

    I'm surprised by the 18 lands given how low your curve is. Can you elaborate on the...

    Most of the time I read this thread I feel like TMWaP and I are the same person at least in deckbuilding <3. I also love a 1x Pierce 1x Flusterstorm split; second Flusterstorm sits in my binder. My...

    Re: Chalice Bomberman/Bomberman Stompy

    Agree on Sanctum Prelate being a promising find. Seems like it can help both the fair plan providing virtual card advantage, and the combo plan providing critical protection against removal.

    I've...

    Love the report, thanks for writing this up and congrats!

    Re: [DTB] U/R Delver

    Well, I finished with a pretty mediocre 4-5 result, got eliminated for day two in round 8 after being 4-2 earlier. I did end up cutting the Vapor Snag and it cost me against Lands.

    Anybody else playing UR Delver at GP Vegas in a couple days? I'm pretty excited to be trying this out after months of practice. Here's my current list: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/672526#online...

    Re: U/R Delver

    I think you hit on one of the real weaknesses of the deck. Decks that can keep up in tempo with our early creatures, especially when they're on the play, are very tough matchups. This has gotten...

    Re: [DO NOT TRY TO SELL IN HERE] Pimp Legacy Decks

    Nice deck! Makes me want to try out Jund. Seeing English foils at the top made me worry I was going to scroll down and see Revised duals, but you delivered. Don't worry about the hate!

    Has anyone tried making a sideboard map for this deck, in the style of the Brainstorm Show #030? The idea is that you map out a rating for every possible card in the deck in each matchup, and use...

    Re: U/R Delver

    RE: Pyrokinesis, for me the main reason I love the card is its mana cost - 0 is light-years better than 2 against things like Thalia, Port, Daze, and Spell Pierce. That combined with the asymmetry (I...

    Re: U/R Delver

    I think you hit the nail on the head exactly - most of the impact will come from the other ways the meta changes, and not so much from Miracles itself. To me the immediate question is whether we can...

    I second TMWAP's suggestion of Grim Lavamancer and True-Name Nemesis being strong inclusions. To me, they're worth dropping Rough // Tumble which would otherwise be great. In its place, I love...
