This is what I'm looking at atm for Mythic this Saturday. The core is pretty similar to what I last shared, but I've changed some of the packages around because Meren will be legal.

Qasali beats Rec Sage now that Meren exists. We need another good value 2-drop, and moving the naturalize bro into that slot makes a lot of sense on many levels. Replacing Rec with Qasali requires cutting Diabolic Intent, which means that the 3rd Top needs to come back in. Meren wants more creatures, so Abzan Charm gets replaced with Courser, which in turn synergizes with the 3rd Top + Sylvan coming back in.

It was a hard road coming to this point, but I've finally cut Thragtusk. I think Thrag is still fine in a lot of versions -- but when you're slinging Rhinos, there's just no reason to run ole Tusk anymore. I'm really kind of saddened by that on a lot of levels, but that's the way things are now. Vindicate probably stands out a little, but it's actually for a pretty simple reason: Meren loses to 2 commonly played cards - Swords to Plowshares, which, let's be real, this entire deck demands being Swordsed -- and Karakas. I'm not going to run a Wasteland, so bringing back the old Vindicate makes a lot of sense here. Plus, Vindicate doubles at planeswalker removal, which can definitely be relevant at the moment.

Things I'm less happy with -- I want to find room for a 4th removal spell maindeck. It'll probably be a Maelstrom Pulse, although there's also the possibility of running a Deluge maindeck, or a singleton Abzan Charm. I'm also not sure if the Elspeth in the sideboard is actually where I want to be, or if I'd rather have another splash Miracles card that can actually function in more than just that matchup (E.Plague is a great example of this, since it shuts down Mentor while also being effective vs Elves, Young Pyro, and Dredge).

---

Another possibility is also running a 1-of Batterskull like Vintage MUD. Good control element against Miracles, and with all our lands, it can be hard to beat. Plus, it can turn vets into threats, or it is a threat on its own. Win-win?

I agree with many of your points.

I almost agree. While Meren does like it when there are plenty of creatures to go around, she also plays incredibly well with Diabolic Intent. Especially when you can throw an Eternal Witness in the mix. Draw 2 cards a turn, one of which being the exact card you need every turn, anyone..?

Also, Meren, Phyrexian Tower and Eternal Witness would seem to be a nice value engine. Recurring PtE/whatever spotremoval or Painful Truths every turn also seems like a nice thing to do.

It's hard to pull off, but when doing so you should be able to pull ahead of whatever you're facing at that point in just a few turns. It pretty much puts the deck into overdrive.

I havent been playing nicfit for a bit while I have been on non-shardless bug midrange deck but this new Merelen looks like a nice value engine. I wonder if blue isnt a better spot for her though. Between recurring nightmare and merelen I would like to run all 4 strix as this is a draw engine most of the other colors will be harder to find. We also get things like glen elendra to help beef up our combo game.

I agree with Ralf in that when I was playing this I was looking for the tightest list possible. Its why I moved away from punishing version to blue version, as I think blue helps your worse matchups (fast combo and with things like bstorm to mitigate floods also with miracles games that go long). The tough part with the deck is that yes we "could" cast karn and that would probably win the game. BUT that opportunity cost is very high for things that cost even 5 or more. Its all about what you want to beat. Ralf sounds like he wants a more rounded 50/50 looking deck well others say if I play against TES whelp ok but as long as I hit blade, shardless and delver I crush.

Meren is released Friday I believe on mtgo so I will try it out after that point. I do believe it is better off in bug but i think moar rhino is in fact more better. I'm 4 force short of bug on mtgo but I will get them this weekend probably.
The bug list seems less powerful than junk but more value and added consistency. I have been playing the stock list but I cut trinket Mage package for 2 jtms and another decay.

Just came back from grand prix seattle and wanted to report on my list. I am budget constrained so my list has some gives for that reason but the list had overall success (I will give my final tally at the end for those that don't want spoilers).

I am not a long time legacy player but i have been playing mtg for 15 plus years and am fairly competitive, although i prefer limited over constructed. I wanted to build a list with lots of flexibility without to many cards that are weak on there own. For that reason (and budget reasons) I stuck with a simple 2 color build with lots of tutors and solid cards. I went for the full 4 living wish build and after discussing this with my friend, a much better deck builder than I, i limited my high end in the the deck and opted to put the finishers in the board. This would limit my bad starting hands and give me the flexibility of having 13 silver bullets in the board. After many round i realized that the 13 wasn't exactly what i needed but it did well most of the day.

Sry about that aside to the decklist!!

Lands:
5x Swamp
6x Forest
4x Windswept Heath
2x Bloodstained Mire
4x Overgrown Tomb
1x Dryad Abor

The land base is simple and somewhat limited by budget. Having a ton of basics gives you natural resistance versus wasteland and being two colors I had limited issues all day (after 9 rounds) due to mana screw.

The 4's of:
4x Cabal therapy
4x Veteran Explorer
4x Living Wish
4x Green Sun's Zenith
4x Abrupt decay

Little to say here. Lots of tutoring, the nic fit combo and 4x abrupt decay (i feel is a given especially in b/g shell)

The 3 and 2's of:
3x Pernicious Deed
3x Hymn to Tourach
2x Sensei's Diving Top

I think the number of hymn and deed is just right, draw them when you need them and not too much in the late game. 2x top was somewhat due to budget but was enough for me the whole day.

The main deck bullets and such:
Zem bullets:
1x Eternal witness
1x Reclamation Sage
1x Deathrite Shaman
1x Scavenging Ooze
1x Courser of Kruphix
1x Nissa, Vastwood Seer

This should be very flexible depending on you meta. I tried to cover all my bases as much as i could due to the open nature of the grand prix.

Winner chicken dinner:
1x Thragtusk
1x Titania, Protector of Argoth

Titania was less awesome than she could have been due to the limited number of sac lands i had but still often won games by bring 10 or 15 damage out of nowhere.

Clean up slots:
1x Diabolic intent
1x Malestom pulse

These slots are likely up to the builder but served me well throughout the day

Sry bout my ranting here is the clean list:

G/B Nic Fits

Lands:
5x Swamp
6x Forest
4x Windswept Heath
2x Bloodstained Mire
4x Overgrown Tomb
1x Dryad Abor

Spells-ish:
4x Cabal therapy
2x Sensei's Diving Top
1x Diabolic intent
4x Living Wish
4x Abrupt decay
3x Hymn to Tourach
3x Pernicious Deed
1x Malestom pulse
4x Green Sun's Zenith

Duders:
4x Veteran Explorer
1x Eternal witness
1x Reclamation Sage
1x Deathrite Shaman
1x Scavenging Ooze
1x Courser of Kruphix
1x Nissa, Vastwood Seer
1x Thragtusk
1x Titania, Protector of Argoth

Sideboard (all them bullets):
2x Engineered Plague
1x Yixlid Jailer
1x Mesmeric Fiend
1x Scavenging Ooze
1x Phyrexian Revoker
1x Plaguebearer
1x Melira, Sylvok Outcast
1x Minister of Pain
1x Reclamation Sage
1x Ashen Rider
1x Bojuku Bog
1x Phyrexian Tower
1x Thragtusk
1x Grave Titian

The sideboard performed very well for me with me pulling (or using) at least 13 or the 15 targets with my only dead slots being Yixlid and Mesmeric Fiend. I found Ashen Rider to be a dud versus show and tell as they can see it coming. After the tourney i replaced Ashen with Karakas to shore up my reanimator/ sneak and show match up.

There is a lot of flexibility here and this was the main reason i played this deck. The plan worked very well (as you'll see) if not perfectly.

I prepared for several months before the tourney and felt pretty solid versus everything except the fastest of combo decks. I ate some donuts and a breakfast sandwich and proceeded to round 1.

Round 1-Cody-Sneak and Show:
Game 1: He turn 2ed Gristlebrand and even though i was able to strip his hand of counters and resolve living wish i didn't have a SB card to deal with the big demon.

Game 2: A much slower game but he eventually stuck Tidespout Tyrant. He bounced all my things and i got rolled over. Again i wished but had no target....

0-1 Round 2-Maxwell-Infect:
Game 1: I stumbled with a slow hand and he killed me turn 3 or 4 with a berserk.

Game 2: He went all in on his land while i had deed in play. I deeded for zero and he lost several turn later

Game 3: He went turn 1 infect guy. I turn 1 cabal therapy for berserk, he had double invigorate and i lost on his turn 2.

0-2 Round 3-Jon-Infect: In order to get to day 2 i was going to need to go 7-0 from here on. I put on my hard hat and went to work

Game 1: He mulliganed and had a slow start. More than enough time for me to get the shields up and i stripped his hands with discard to put him out of the game completely.

Game 2: Early discard and removal bought me the time early. Despite that he had 2 turn to draw pump for the win but i was able to pull it out on 9 poison counters.

1-2 Round 4-Emily-Death and Taxes
Game 1: This was an epic 47 minute slug fest with her gaining life to above 40 and me deeding the board several times. I made the mistake of letting batterskull stick around too long and it nearly cost me the game. I was able to swing for 20 plus damage on the final turn (grave titan leading the charge) the turn she would have killed me with her pro black/green double striker. I used all 4 wishes and green sun's so many times that i only had explorers left in my deck!

Game 2: Never happened, it went to time before she finished sideboarding. I let her know about the time and a judge was standing next to me but she casually sided in and out until time was called.

2-2 Round 5-Sam-Death and Taxes: Fatigue was real after the last match but I learned a ton about the D&T matchup and was ready to go.
Game 1: Sam beat me down to 4 with a Jitte wielding Brimaz but I was able to tutor up a rec sage into Kruphix and stabilize from there. I ended the game at 15, went to kill his Brimaz (which he bounced) into cabal therapy hitting 2 Brimaz.

Game 2: I was now feeling very comfortable with this matchup and was able to lock down his equipment with double rec sage. Again he beat me down to 9 but i was able to stabilize back to 17.

3-2 Round 6-Kevin-Death and Taxes
Game 1 and 2: My experience served me well and i was able to easily 2-0 my opponent despite his best efforts. What i learned was to kill batterskull no matter what and hold onto the therapies to catch stoneforged equipment. This matchup seemed very much in my favor which is not a surprise as Nic Fit works around everything that death and taxes is trying to punish. He can't mana lock you, he can't out creature you, and you are able to cabal therapy the stone forge before he gets to drop his sweet equipment.

4-2 Round 7-Kevin (different guy)-Elves
Game 1: I was able to speed out a pernicious deed for an early board clear. Later in the game I wished for Minister of pain and erased all hope of him wining. An aside, always always cabal for glimpse of nature in this match.

Game 2: I kept a hand with and engineered plague. I was able to grab a glimpse early (seeing a natural order and progenitus in hand), and he started to go off turn 3 with 2 green sun's for symbiotic duders but ended the turn hitting me for 1. I cast plague on my turn three and it was only a matter of time before he was dead.

5-2 Round 8-Nick-Rug Delver: Nick was a long time legacy player that flew up from Texas to play. I was very nervous going into the match despite my testing showing delver was in my favor.

Game 1: I was able to stick a deed (eventually) and was able to clear the board at 9. I started to drain him out with Deathrite and was able to kill him the turn before he lethal-ed me with delver.

Game 2: He had a strong start of tarmo into disruption and i never stood a chance.

Game 3: I cabal-ed for a tarmo and hit on turn 1. I also saw double mongoose which he quickly played. With him at 6 cards in the yard i wished for bog and slowed the beats down. We both went into top deck mode and despite some poor plays from me (not flashing back cabal for counters...) I was able to out top deck him for the win.

6-2 Round 9-Andrew- Show/reanimator
Game 1: Turn 1 he discarded Gristle into turn 2 reanimator. Again i was able to wish but had no answer in the board....

Game 2: I got out an early death rite but still didn't stand much of a chance.

Overall 6-3

I just missed day 2 in the last round.... but the deck performed well. My final opponent mentioned how much a beating Karakas was for his deck so i went and traded some things to put one in my board. I think with the right SB i could have got 1 of the show and tell match ups but i still havn't been able to go back in time so it doesn't help much...

I plan to keep playing and tuning the deck over time. There is a shop in Portland that has weekly events for dual's so I will likely swing by here and there and build up the deck. If i could have made any changes, i would have included at least a sac creature in the board for gristle and company. If I can build up some MTG dollars i might pick up a lily or 2 to help out versus the big creatures but that will be in the long distant future.

Thanks for the read and any suggestions are appreciated.

I think based on my GP experience, of which I'll write a tournament report tomorrow-ish, I'd go forward with the following. I play more removal than Kevin, since that's life in Canada. Gotta be ready for those Polar Krakens.

First thing of all things. Thank you very much for your report and welcome among Nic Fit players.

Had you come earlier, we (Nic Fit community) might have been able to work you out with some ideas for the GP, all based on budget constraints.

You can be very proud of such a "first" and challenging run.
You basically wrecked every fair MU and got raped by non fair MU.


JBone is one of our best experienced player with a "Living Wish" package.

I'm pretty sure, he will step by, eventually, to give you a lot of ideas/advices for future events.

I'll try to come up with few ideas taking into account your budget constraints in the next few days to help you through your difficult MU.

Cheers,

Ralf.

@Matt: I find your lack of faith in Nightmare...disturbing.

Otherwise, I like it overall. It's more of the jund style approach to the deck (1-for-1 removal suite with heavy card draw, limited ways to actually win), which is fine. I do think you might want to consider a Vindicate over the Pulse. Pulse is generally the better card, but Vindicate is better when Karakas matters to you (Meren) and when you have a powerful recursion engine (EWit + Meren/Nightmare/Stronghold, if the latter stays). The last time I played with Vindicate, I definitely won a couple games by looping into repeated Vindicates to color screw people. It's just a nice functionality to have, and it comes at very little cost.

That's the only real complaints I have -- I obviously build my sideboard a little differently, but that can be anything from regional opponents to personal preferences to local meta.

In terms of my budget I can pick up a key card here and there (i traded for a Karakas..) but i cant go and drop a thousand dollars on a land base or anything like that. The deck seemed close, which seemed surprising due to my relative lack of experience (tested against miracles/delver/omnitell for the last few months). Some of the board definitely needs upgrades, plague bearer seemed great on paper but was meh throughout the day. I liked the bullet board as it made all my living wishes super powerful and there were few matchups that i felt like a huge dog (i did need a fleshbag though..).

Ya as you said those speedy combo decks were rough for me. I have been thinking about going to the full 4 hymn's as it is a main strength of the deck and is the best start the deck can have (cabal, explorer, cabal, hymn). I liked running a high % of basics, I basically ignored wasteland which can sometimes just steal a win right out from under a good hand. Also i might go to 2 thrag's as i am not really running enough sac lands to take advantage of Titania.

Overall the deck felt solid all day and when games came down to top deck wars, I always felt favored due to the tutor package and overall stronger cards.

Hello All!

I'm relatively new to both Nic Fit and legacy but have had a blast so far. I've played in two local 40-60 man tournaments and have gone a total of 5-2-1 with Junk Nic Fit, beating Delver variants 2-0, Miracles 1-0, Cloudpost 1-0, Grixis Control 1-0 and losing to Lands and Punishing Jund (my draw was to Maverick and was largely a result of my poor play). I have a few questions:

1. I've played both tournaments with a small Stoneforge package: 3 Mystics; 1 Batterskull; and 1 Jitte. The package has won me as many games as Rhino or Titania have, but it's also quite the non-bo with Pernicious Deed. When is a stoneforge package advisable (i.e. what matchups does Stoneforge improve) and when is it not?

2. I'm fairly sure I understand how to beat Jund the next time I'm paired against it (the Stoneforge package wasn't where I wanted to be - should have sideboarded into more fatties and some graveyard hate). I have no idea what to do about Lands; that feels like a really tough pairing. Any advice you guys have would be greatly appreciated.

3. What are the pros and cons of Punishing Nic Fit vs. Rhino Fit? I'm working on acquiring Grove of the Burnwillows so I have the option of switching between the two decks.

4. Why has Grave Titan fallen out of favor? He feels like a stronger card than any other option at 6CMC for the deck.

Thanks!!

3. Punishing is absolute control and has the best fair matchup but sacrifices further for the combo matchup. White gives a lot of options like teeg and canonist.

4. Grave Titan can't be gsz for and the big deck runs it to pod tusk into Titan. 6 drops are a premium and primeval is only good in jund builds, mostly scapeshift.

The other two questions, I feel my answer won't be nearly as accurate as someone else's so hopefully I helped.

I can only really speak on 4.

4. During my games with my wish version i played him into the board so that i was running a virtual 4 of. What i found during my games is that you often have to grab the answer cards over the win cons (rec sage or revoker). There were several cases were i could have grabbed titan and cast him the next turn but having the answer now was more important. I did cast him two or three times and in every case he won me the game but the situation has to be just right. I liked him in the wish board as i never worried about him being a dead draw early and as was said you cant green sun him anyway.

Played in a big tournament with classic Abzan Fit, but with Dragonlord Dromoka, Wilt-Leaf Liege and more removal (4x Deeds, 3 Decays, etc...)
Went 3-1-1. Fifth place out of 22 players, but since we had little time, only top4. -.-'

Round 01 - WUR Stoneblade 1:1

Worst playing ever. We started playing slowly, and I was thinking that he is playing with Delvers. So, JTMS got online. And soooo slow playing from him. Eventually Batterskull killed me. G2 Qasali Pridemage was a BEAST. Rushed him to a few lives, then Siege Rhino took his life. G3 he stuck a Blood Moon and I totally forgot about that. So, got in time, but I didn't want to concede. Aaaaand a fail of a beginning.

Round 02 - ANT 1:2

First I was paired with a RUG Delver, which I would win 2:0, since I know how to play against them, but judge failed at pairing an I got paired with ANT player, a friend from our group. Game 1 was very easy. Rushing with creatures and Rhino+WiltLeaf to the win! Game 2 he returned my Gaddock Teeg to hand and killed me next turn. And BIGGEST MISTAKE OF THAT DAY...I sided out every Deed & Night of Souls' Betrayal. I had 3 lands in play, one in hand, and Enlightened Tutor...I was so happy that I will kill 14 goblins...and then...fail...well, 1:2. -.-'

Round 03 - Modern DredgeTroll 2:0

Opponent was very ''tired'' and missplayed everything. Maindeck gravehate did the job, and 2:0 for me.

Round 04 - Dredge 2:0

He conceded since I always beat him 2:0. :D

Round 05 - Nic Fit 2:0

Best game of the day. I started with a slightly bad hand. He played a version of Fierce Empath into Sun Titan/Grave Titan. I had a thought in game 1 that I will lose both games, but first game Rhinos took his life and Paths exiled both Titans. SDTop was a BEAST. Game 2 topdeck mode was also good. Removal when needed, GSZ when needed. Dragonlord Dromoka into Wilt-Leaf Liege, and he lost in the last round of time. Haha! :D

Lessons learned that day:
- always keep a Deed against ANT
- Sigarda & Thrun against WUR Stoneblade
- I can win mirror matchups! :D

This just in: Meren and Dryad Arbor are pretty sweet together.

You have also Broodmate Dragon in Jund. More power, more bodys and can block delver as a boss.

Yeah, if I were on Jund, I'd play Huntmaster and Broodmate, Thragtusk and Thrun.

-Matt

Thragbro is in all my nic fit decks. He's always there and always has my back. I would never relegate him to a single build. Tuskerino is my goose and, I, his maverick.

Just another option for jund is Ruric Thar, he also crushes delver decks, well and decks that want to cast spells.


Regarding Dragonlord Dromoka, my only issue with him, is that there are a bunch of Karakas's in my neck of the woods. I have dropped him a couple of times only to have my opponent sandbag a karakas, so he has been benched for the time being.
