    Re: [Free Article] Introducing Shelldock Doomsday

    Is that a 6 card Doomsday pile? Or am I missing something.

    Re: [SCD] Predict

    I think that Predict is an interesting "replacement" for Standstill in control. Sometimes you just can't cast Standstill, but you can always use Predict. In the deck I'm working on (which is kind of...

    Re: U/W/x CounterTop Walker

    I really like Humility. Turning all of their creature investments into vanilla 1/1s is pretty awesome and helps stop the bleeding. I wouldn't run more than 2 Enlightened Tutor (I hate losing a draw)...

    Re: Legacy HexLage needs help...

    Having Thoughtseize, Duress and Hymn might be overkill on the discard. Maybe try some removal? Snuff Out, Terror, Smother, Doom Blade all come to mind.

    Re: [Free Article] Dazed and Confused

    Force of Will seems like the first card to go. I mean it costs 5 mana.

    Re: [Psuedo-Article] Ill-Gotten Pains

    Pretty good read with a really cool title.

    In my opinion, I think that TES is the closest to my playstyle and ability for replicating ANT now with Mystical Tutor gone. I like the speed and the...

    Re: U/W/x Planeswalker Counterbalance Control

    You make some valid arguments against the Thopter engine. Yes, the pieces are dead on their own, but you are also drawing tons of cards with Jace and Predict and cantrip and filtering with Top,...

    Re: U/W/x Planeswalker Counterbalance Control

    Hanni, is there a reason you're against running the Thopter engine? It seems like it could easily fit into your deck. It's also interesting to see the virtual card advantage (CBTop) and real card...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    Goyf is likely the best creature you can steal from them early on. Otherwise, you're stuck with a 1/1 (Ape, Nacatl, Lavamancer) or at best a 2/2 exalted. And keeping the Harness on is exhausting your...

    Re: [Deck] UW(x) Landstill

    Top is better, cheaper to cast, and is protected by non-Grip removal. Top also has synergy with fetches and can actually grab a card on top if needed. Crystal Ball will probably see play in Standard...

    Re: [DTB] Merfolk

    BEB and Hydroblast are fine choices for the reasons you mentioned, DDK. The Blasts do also offer up a solution to the format's most popular sweeper for U.

    Re: [DTW] Non-LED Based Dredge/Ichorid Combo

    Discard doesn't answer Tormod's Crypt if they play...or if they draw it after you Duress them (I hate when that happens).

    Re: [Deck] NLI - Next Level Iggy

    This is actually a pretty neat deck. It has a very SI feel to it without losing life, but being dependent on IGG. I goldfished the OP list and sometimes I'd get stuck on a hand with Dream Salvage...

    Loxodon Warhammer and Behemoth Sledge make your guys bigger and have lifegain too. I'm not saying they're the best, but they are options to consider.

    Re: New cards from M11

    Preordain is pretty interesting to me. It seems on par with Ponder, maybe a smidge worse. I think if it had been scry 3, it would replace Ponder right away.

    Resolving cards that cost 4+ mana need to have a big effect on the game if you ask me. They kinda have to end the game or make you not lose the game with the speed of the format at...

    It's kind of interesting to have these "free" extra creatures come out, but it's pretty dependent on Survival to be good and it's a lot of dancing imo.
