[Weapon X]

Wasn’t sure where to post this, but this is what I played for our latest legacy league:


3 vesuvan drifter
4 show and tell
1 Sheoldred, the apocalypse
3 omniscience
2 archon of cruelty
2 emrakul, the aeons torn
2 griselbrand
3 palantir or orthanc
3 Lim-dul’s vault
3 thoughtseize
2 Lorien revealed
4 brainstorm
4 ponder
4 force of will
3 lotus petal
2 sea gate restoration

2 scalding tarn
4 polluted delta
4 underground sea
1 swamp
2 island
1 otawara, soaring city
1 ancient tomb

SIDEBOARD
1 boseiju, who shelters all
3 null rod
3 orcish bowmasters
2 flusterstorm
3 surgical extraction
2 dress down
1 brazen borrower


It played better then sneak and show to me. I think I’d like to main bowmasters though. A little on the fence about palantir, but it’s still just draw a card at worse. Any mill from it felt like lethal damage. Regardless, I like that this can be a little more low to the ground then traditional sneak. Vault and thoughtseize I think are the selling points.

Palantir seems more like a SB card while Bowmasters should be main.

Palantir into Omniscience or Emrakul is amazing, but without any fair creatures main.(Bowmasters) doing nonlethal damage doesn't accomplish much. You still need to resolve a combo threat either way. With Bowmasters main that may change, Bowmasters can contribute the finishing damage!

Honestly that’s kind of how I felt too. Also didn’t help that I kept reading palantir wrong. That’s probably the main change going forward.
