    Re: [Deck] UBGx Landstill

    Hi all. I usually played mud, and still do. i also played rug threshold back in the day and can now again. Thats said, i also enjoy this deck archetype. I thought id post my list and see what more experienced players thought about some of my more non traditional additions. Here goes.

    Deck: Legacy UBW Landstill.dec

    Counts : 60 main / 15 sideboard

    Creatures:3
    3 Snapcaster Mage

    Artifacts:8
    3 Chalice of the Void
    1 Chrome Mox
    2 Mox Diamond
    2 Crucible of Worlds

    Sorceries:4
    2 Hymn to Tourach
    2 Toxic Deluge

    Instants:17
    2 Counterspell
    4 Daze
    2 Diabolic Edict
    4 Impulse
    1 Intuition
    4 Force of Will

    Enchantments:3
    3 Standstill

    Others:3
    1 Liliana, the Last Hope
    2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor

    Lands:22
    1 Creeping Tar Pit
    1 Flooded Strand
    3 Island
    4 Mishra's Factory
    4 Polluted Delta
    2 Swamp
    1 Tundra
    2 Underground Sea
    4 Wasteland

    Sideboard:15
    1 Vendilion Clique
    1 Helm of Obedience
    1 Celestial Purge
    1 Disenchant
    2 Zealous Persecution
    2 Mindbreak Trap
    1 Submerge
    1 Seal of Cleansing
    3 Leyline of the Void
    1 The Abyss
    1 Narset Transcendent

    I believe that the intuition mb could also be another liliana the last hope with fewer abrupt decays in the meta, and could see another edict sb as well with all the sneak and show.

    Re: [Deck] UBGx Landstill

    A new card was spoiled in RTRTR, Assassin's Trophy, that might singlehandedly bring BUG Landstill back. The ability to destroy lands is HUGE in a Landstill deck and a big reason why UW has been having so much success. By giving BUG a way to have more Wasteland effects, we get more outs to Cavern of Souls, Grove of the Burnwillows, Thespian's Stage, etc.

    Here's a very preliminary decklist that I've adapted straight from my current UW Landstill build:

    Main Deck (60)

    Creatures (4)
    4 Snapcaster Mage
    Instants (22)
    2 Abrupt Decay
    2 Assassin's Trophy
    4 Brainstorm
    3 Counterspell
    1 Diabolic Edict
    2 Fatal Push
    4 Force of Will
    2 Spell Pierce
    2 Spell Snare
    Sorceries (2)
    1 Ponder
    1 Toxic Deluge
    Artifacts (1)
    1 Engineered Explosives
    Enchantments (5)
    2 Search for Azcanta
    3 Standstill
    Planeswalkers (3)
    2 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
    1 Liliana, the Last Hope
    Land (23)
    1 Bayou
    1 Creeping Tar Pit
    2 Island
    4 Mishra's Factory
    2 Misty Rainforest
    4 Polluted Delta
    1 Swamp
    2 Tropical Island
    4 Underground Sea
    2 Wasteland

    Sideboard (15)
    4 Tarmogoyf
    1 Vendilion Clique
    1 Assassin's Trophy
    1 Flusterstorm
    3 Surgical Extraction
    1 Life from the Loam
    3 Thoughtseize
    1 Pernicious Deed


    There are some unknowns such as the 4x Goyf. Is it worth ignoring the transformational sideboard entirely in favor of another Vendilion Clique and 3 other cards, such as The Abyss? What do I cut for the fourth green source? I have no idea, but it's obvious that this is a huge pickup for reactive BG decks and no one does reactive better than Landstill.

    I like very much your idea. Do you think that wastelands are necesary?

    Re: [Deck] UBGx Landstill

    I think so. With the above 60, you're really looking to push opposing wastelands to the limit with 7 must-kill cards (tar pit, Azcanta, factory) so snagging opposing Wastelands with your own is a huge deal and helps close the game out sooner.

    Besides that, Wasteland is a big deal in landstill- you can cast your big spells off of it (Jace, Azcanta, etc), activate factories, blow up opposing Wastelands, and tackle otherwise impossible to beat cards (pfire/Grove). Maybe just 1 is what I want or maybe I want 2 and 3 factories but yeah, the Mana base is wrong right now.

    Re: [Deck] UBGx Landstill

    Have you played any tournament with this deck?
    Would not it be interesting to remove the wastelands and put two basic lands, or a tropical and a forest?

    The UW version I've been playing a lot locally. As soon as Assassin's Trophy is able to played at sanctioned events, I'll give the list above a shot with some change in the mana. I do really want another green source but I think Forest is probably overdoing it, but I also really want that 2nd Wasteland, but I also think 23 lands is just right. There's a right answer here, I'm sure, but I haven't figured it out yet.

    Re: [Deck] UBGx Landstill

    Hi all,

    I'm new to The Source, and was just hoping to get some feedback on a list. I've only played about 15 matches with it, between xmage and FNMs, but it feels super solid. I'm winning about 60% of the time, which isn't great, but truthfully I'm just getting back in to Magic after 16 years so my play skill and format knowledge are still developing. The aether vials are the main difference here, obviously, as well as the omission of manlands. So many ways to gain advantage under a standstill, and vialing in a Leo in response to a brainstorm just feels incredible. Anyway, I don't think the deck is Tier 1 or 2 or anything, but it's pretty competitive and a ton fun, so I'd like to optimize it. All feedback, positive and negative, is welcome.

    Creatures 19
    4 Baleful Strix
    3 True-Name Nemesis
    3 Snapcaster Mage
    3 Dark Confidant
    2 Leovold, Emissary of Trest
    2 Thief of Sanity
    1 Glissa, the Traitor
    1 Vendilion Clique

    Spells 17
    4 Brainstorm
    4 Standstill
    2 Counterspell
    2 Spell Pierce
    2 Assassin's Trophy
    1 Toxic Deluge
    1 Darkblast
    1 Spell Snare

    Artifacts 4
    4 Aether Vial

    Planeswalkers 2
    2 Liliana, the Last Hope

    Lands 18
    4 Polluted Delta
    2 Misty Rainforest
    1 Verdant Catacombs
    3 Underground Sea
    1 Tropical Island
    1 Bayou
