I honestly see no reason to play it other than a way to interact with the graveyard in corner situations. Sure it is another "combo" piece post omniscience, but you can just play another cunning wish if that's what you need. Also not a fan of the sorcery speed, since going off at instant speed is one of the biggest draws of the deck.

I do like the JTMS in the sideboard, seems like an interesting alternative to young pyro in the S&T mirror. It's also not a terrible maindeck card if you expect facing super grindy blue decks all day.

Hello guys. I know I posted some questions some months ago about the UB version. Due too a loooong vacations i havnt been able du reply...

But here we go! Im searching for a list that is straight monoU. As without the volcanics and other duals. Im searching for it but i only find some really old list. Is this deck still viable without the splash ? Without the splash would you rather go with lotus petals in the main, and maybe two defence grid in the side instead of the YP?

I saw some posts before about the monoU but without a list. If you see this would you mind post it?

The splash is so light and only in the sideboard. Just cut the colored lands for more basic lands and cut the few red cards in the sideboard.

Anyone have experience with Vendilion Clique in the sideboard? What matchup would you side them in?

[QuTE=Varal;897003]Anyone have experience with Vendilion Clique in the sideboard? What matchup would you side them in?[/QUOTE]

Yes. I started out with 2 in the board. After winning one of Flipside Gaming's legacy 1ks,I started playing
3 and have not looked back.

I bring them in against Miracles,Stoneblade,D@T and combo. Some times a 1 or 2 of vs Elves.

I play 3 Flusterstorms main. Unless theres a situation where Flusterstorm is not the greatest (D@T/Elves). I usually just trim one ofs for them.

Definitely try it!!

Jace gets Pyroblasted, that's enough reason not to play it as the alternate win con for the mirror.

WOW

this is the same argument as "it dies to plow", so don't play it.

you probably don't need the surgical. it really doesn't help with your gy matchups all that much anyways.

I tend to agree. What would you recommend instead? Maybe a 2nd Sudden Shock for Mentor?

I run 2 suddens and 1 pyroclasm

I dont' run the surgical. Against reanimator, you just gotta win on the stack.

So that's 3 burn spells. What am I missing in my side that you'd suggest? Grafdiggers?

Are you serious!? Of course it's not. Unless you're in the belief that STP deals with every other card in your deck? Then it's the same argument.

Bringing in an alternate win condition that is countered or destroyed for a single mana by a card that will be sideboarded in against you (or already maindeck) from EVERY deck playing red is an absolutely terrible idea. If YP was blue, he wouldn't be played in the SB either.

From my experience, there's really no saving grace against graveyard decks unless you pack 4 leylines of the void. (Dredge)

I give up on that matchup, hope to dodge it. If i play against reanimator, lets fight over the stack.

The mirror packs 2 REB effects. If they kill your jace with an REB, you still have cunning wish, dtt, omniscience, show and tell that ALL need to be stopped.
