Against Terminus or against Miracles? I know these questions are similar, but not completely I suppose. Plenty of decks with a good matchup against Miracles.

I like shutting down the top rather than Terminus. Revoker. I've played it in Zoo. Needle. Stony Silence. Null Rod. City of Solitude (them not being about to do things on your turn is sweet).

You can also play Chalice as it helps shut down cards that set up Terminus.
I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums
What's good against Terminus?
If WOTC finally comes to their senses and bans Sensei's Divining Top this month.

QFT. Jar effects too stronk against miracles. #FreeJar
It is quite difficult to find answers that aren't blue though. If you can read the opponent, forcing a shuffle with Extirpate could be strong too.
I've won some games against miracles with the combination of bloodghast and darkblast. If you have the vampire in play, Darkblast is basically a one mana spell that counters terminus and swords to plowshares.
Aetherling seems good but no Legacy deck wants it... Well, maybe Miracles.

Surgical Extraction targeting Swords to Plowshares - probably the best way to invalidate Terminus if your creatures can beat 2/1s and 3/1s.
Do you go for Extirpate for the split second though?
Open. Sorry for my haste.

It is better to ask and look stupid then keep your mouth shut and remain so.
I hope your afterlife is filled with eternal torment.

If Blinking Spirit cost 1WW or 2W, I'd play the shit out of it to hate on Terminus.
Certainly Invasive Surgery should be on the list, right?

Eh. You'd blink it and it would get counterbalanced on the way back in. That's why I hate the deck. You want to go quick to get under counter balance but you don't want to get raped by terminus. Then you want to play kind of slow and not get wrathed and they just lock you out with CB or simply STP, snapcaster, STP
