View Full Version : [Information] Two-Man Tournament III - The Lists



Nihil Credo

Here are the lists that I and Zach will be using for our little project.

Now, let's make one thing clear: neither he nor I intend to spend time explaining, much less defending, every single choice we made. This thread is for informational purposes, not to ask for input, and unless some clear mistake turns up in the next 24 hours these lists are final.

So if you think that List X sucks and doesn't belong, feel absolutely free to rant about it in this thread, but as a rule you should not expect your opinion to be heeded or even answered.

Comment: Some people would perhaps have preferred, say, Taco's version. However, this list has two top 8s in >100 person tournament and a bunch of smaller ones. And it doesn't hurt that I like it better than either the creatureless or Tarmogoyf version.

Comment: Yeah, it's Rager, not Negator. It makes kind of sense, since the main attractions of Black Stompy are the CA sources. I'm still skeptical, but as always, when in doubt, I go with the list that has the most actual results.

My friend Joe has a better Enchantress list than that one. Lemme see if he'll cough it up :DBetter by what definition? I think they'll be fine with what they can get. Lonelybaritone is married to the enchantress after all.

I think the Goyf Sligh list could use some help. Cursed Scroll is to slow and you need to be running 4 x Grim Lavamancer. I still play Kird Ape over Fanatic but that is a personal preference. 4 magma Jet is one to many, it does help with fixing you lib. but 3 is enough. The list you posted only Runs 18 land w/ 7 Fetchs, I found that 19-20 land with 6 fetchs was optimal. When I was running 18 I would never draw land when I needed it.

Just some thoughts...

Telling Zach Tartell how to build/play enchantress is like trying to tell Ron Jermey how to fuck or Tiger Woods how to play golf...This man knows the deck.

For the love of god remove 2 Werebears from the Canadian Thresh list and add in Wipe Away and the final Spell Snare, and put in 2 Pithing Needles in the board instead of Control Magic, they don't belong. The sideboard is open for change, but the maindeck is quite fixed in results that it has put up. Actually, I don't know if it will make a huge difference, it is just 2 slots. But I would never cut a Snare.

I think that there should be two aggro loam builds, as the two are definately distinct (chalice/explosives versus non). I also would like to see how the white splash would fare up. Intuition Welder seems like a space filler so I think that could be tossed and you could put up the other type of aggro loam (seeing as how its a DTB and all... the two different builds are as different as the two dreadstill decks and the affinity decks). I could provide the RGw list I toped 4 with at the second RI tournament.

To join in the complaining, use BC's updated version of SI, it's much more solid, with the tombstalker sb.

Call me old fashioned, but I'm pretty sure that Exhume counts too. It's just grouped weirdly. Additionally, it was made clear in the comments that it wasn't Rod's list.

I'd've appreciated you speaking up like last week. Since we've seeded everything, collected lists, and set up play dates (not like on a calendar - like the type where your mom brings you over to Italy to play nerd cards with a perfect stranger) we'll unfortunately have to wait until the next set (which I'd totally do if I continue my perfect no-hitter on the job market.

I wondered this at the beginning and I agree but i think since the 64 decks have been picked and the actual games are starting that its too late.

Also should there be cabal therapies inside of a reanimate deck considering you have 5 creatures that you may be willing to flashback the therapy (4 imp 1 prowler). I mean you may be able to finish a game with a bogardan by sacrificing and bringing back, but I would run 2 more thoughtseizes and one more animate dead.

The life loss might be too much then switch a angel of wrath for another nishoba.

That Demon Stompy List should definitely play Dusk Urchins over Muse and SoLS over SoFI.

Urchins are awesome (it often is a pain for DS to get BB or CMC 4) and can easily come down turn one. If the opponent has no answers, they win the game on their own and very often they offer you a 2:1 deal.

SoLS is very synergetic with
-Urchins
-Imp
-Ancient Tomb
-Grinning Demon

Pro White is very nice as well.

I actually quite like the muses, they're a good Confidant-replacement. I'd put the Bane of the living's in the SB, replace them with dusk Urchins and ofcourse L&S over F&I. The Banes are only really necessary against aggro.

EDIT: also, i'd tool teh RGb gobbo SB more towards combo, now it only does something against belcher and scoops to storm-combo.

Allright, I'll start ranting. Most of the lists are solid, but I really question that Train Wreck list. Where does this list come from? 61 cards is just a nitpick, but 11 finishers? Seriously? I mean, I don't say it has to be bad. But every list (http://www.deckcheck.net/list.php?type=Train+Wreck&format=Legacy) which has placed somewhere, somewhen, has played no more than 5 finishers.

and unless some clear mistake turns up in the next 24 hours these lists are final.
For me this falls under "clear mistake".

Other mistakes:
Aluren plays 59 cards main.
Voroshstill - Still 5 Engineered Explosives.

The only guy I still know playing the deck, Jim "Jim" Lampman (he who keeps the dream alive) swears by the list. I'm not sure if anyone has done testing that says otherwise, but I'm pretty sure that Oona + Coffers = Stonecold nuts. Also, Korlash in play + Korlash in hand + Stronghold = Win. I could see dropping the 1-of Helldozer, but that's about it. Jim knows his shit, and I'ma listen to him.

Meh bad memories with Voroshstill against merfolks. Oh well I am favoring the Voroshstill player in that match for obvious reasons. ;) But two tacosnape-esque decks facing off against each other draconuker vs Dragon Stompy I am favoring draco in that match. ;) Underdogs ftw.

On the other note I really like your Karach deck Nihil it's pretty hot.

Hi. That's my list Zach has, and I love it as well, thanks. It's the best version I've ever played of the deck, and it might not be a "standard" list, but when I've been able play in locals since changing to the current list, I've at least made top 2/4. Just give it a chance to grow on you, it's good.

Do you miss having instant speed removal? Like Diabolic Edict or Smother? I love the list, but I hated Chainer's Edict just because of it being a sorcery. I will test your list because it does look amazing.

Not that you probably care at this point, but I think I have a much better Demon Stompy list.

// Deck file for Magic Workstation (http://www.magicworkstation.com)

// Lands
4 [EX] City of Traitors
4 [TE] Ancient Tomb
9 [UNH] Swamp
1 [PLC] Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
2 [SOK] Tomb of Urami

// Creatures
2 [FUT] Tombstalker
3 [RAV] Stinkweed Imp
4 [LRW] Shriekmaw
4 [LE] Graveborn Muse
3 [SHM] Dusk Urchins
3 [LE] Bane of the Living
4 [ON] Grinning Demon

// Spells
4 [MR] Chrome Mox
4 [DS] Sword of Light and Shadow
4 [MR] Chalice of the Void
3 [BOK] Umezawa's Jitte
2 [LRW] Profane Command

// Sideboard
SB: 4 [GP] Leyline of the Void
SB: 4 [UL] Engineered Plague
SB: 4 [SOK] Pithing Needle
SB: 3 [DS] Trinisphere

Reasons:

- Trinisphere is a bad maindeck card, especially when you only run two, minimizing your chances of drawing them in your opening hand which is about the only place they're good.

- Dark Ritual isn't that great of an accelerant in Demon Stompy due to all the double colorless lands you run. It's pretty much mana burn plus a card to get a one black mana acceleration. Plus it has bad synergy with CotV at one.

- SoLS >> SoFI in this deck. You deal yourself a ton of damage and recurring Shriekmaw and Dusk Urchins is awesome.

- Priest of Gix is a bad late game topdeck and is barely a threat at 2/1

- Dusk Urchins >> Phyrexian Rager

- Bane of the Living is nuts vs. aggro
