Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Match 3 is known as Nic Fit.
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Rules question. Can you activate Stage targeting DD and with that ability on the stack cast Crop Rotation saccing DD? Will Stage still turn into a DD?

Yes you can cast rotation. No it won't work the way you want.

Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Played RG Lands at GP Prague. GQ main, 3 Chalice side. Went 11-4 to a 76th place finish. Missed prizes because of shit breakers.
W Eldrazi 2-0
W Maverick 2-0
W Eldrazi 2-0
L Belcher 1-2
W UR Delver 2-0
W Eldrazi 2-1 (Tomaharu Saito)
W Eldrazi 2-0
W Grixis Delver 2-1
L Miracles 1-0-1
L Lands 1-2
W Grixis Delver 2-0
L Reanimator 1-2
W Burn 2-0
W Jund 2-1
W Grixis Delver 2-1
Had the worst bad beat against Belcher: He went for Blecher and activation, in response I cropped for a Chasm. 5 turns later I had a Chalice on 0, a Sphere and the combo on board to kill him next turn. His 5th draw is.... a 3rd Simian Spirit Guide, and I'm dead. Sure, it is a bad match up anyway.
Overall an amazing weekend. Thanks to all the friends, new and old. Can't wait to go to the next big legacy event. Which will most likely be MKM London in September.
Peace.

Great finish!
Did you have Tireless Tracker in your board?

Congrats on your great finish! Still impressive stealing a game against Belcher. I saw a mirrormatch on day two: one had Exploration out and a Loam-engine (with Wasteland) going, the other only had a Mox D out. Was this your MU?

Yea I played a mirror match as my first match day 2 in the corner of the room. I believe it could have been our second game which I won. And then got crushed g3. I was the guy with a red shirt and blonde hair.

I didn't. My board was:
1 Bojuka Bog
1 Karakas
1 Molten Vortex
1 Worm Harvest
4 Krosan Grip
4 Sphere of Resistance
3 Chalice of the Void
I didn't have time to test Tracker properly before the GP, but it seems promising. Will most likely cut a Molten Vortex and Worm Harvest for it. I've heard good things about the guy. I just heard there's a good sized legacy event near my area in two weeks so I will test them there.

You can do it, but it wont give you a Marit Lage.
The ability of Stage is checked twice (like every target). The first time is when you activate stage (or cast your spell) to know if the target is legale. Then it is checked again on the resolution to know if the target is still legale.
If you Crop Rotation your Depths in response to the ability of Stage, the first check pass (Depth is a legale target), but on the resolution (when the second check is made), there is no more legale target (because you cropped it away), so the spell fizzle.
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
I'm assuming tireless trackers are good against Miracles and any of the Grindy decks (Shardless, Nic Fit, Death and Taxes), anything else I'm not seeing?

It's good against any deck that lets you live long enough to cast Tracker and play a land (or two). This includes decks which are actively trying to attack your graveyard.

At the GP Prague I played in a side-event against 12post. In g2 he was at 30+ life, I took him down to 9 with two Trackers in just two attacks, before he whooped my ass. Ok, I lost the game but TT is the real thing indeed.
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
For those talking big about Tireless Tracker, do you think he is really any better then Primeval Titan? I have not tried tracker, and can see where he becomes useful, but I feel like Titan has more of an immediate impact... and dodges decay.
Also... 3x Chalice has been a MVP SB slot... would not leave home without it.
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Nobody played with the black splash? With this miracle-infested meta seems good to have an out g1 from the CB lock...

Titan serves a slightly different purpose. I like Titan when playing against Show & Tell decks and against decks where resolving it just wins the game. It's like putting Angel of Despair into play but better. I admit I went down to one Titan for the GP but he showed up in a Death & Taxes match and won that game immediately.
Titan wins the games right away whereas Tracker is insurmountable card advantage.

Splashing black does not beat miracles. It just makes the deck less consistent. Play tighter and play boseiju. Played boseiju main and watched two miracles opponents pick up cards after playing it on day one and two. Followed by grumbles of " ugh, you play that main board?"
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Question I would like to ask the group. So I currently play 4 Sphere of resistances in the side along with 2 chalice. I'm debating on going to 3 chalice and cutting one of the spheres. Is this crazy or is 3 chalices just too much?

For me Tracker seemed like win more? IDK, every time I played him i loaded up on a bunch of clues, but never really had the chance to crack it because I was doing other things with my mana.

Maybe. I find that with Tracker I don't need to cast anything else anymore (maybe the occasional Loam to reset if you draw too many spells). Maybe Port activations? But you should have more mana. Don't use your spells, really, because you can just keep drawing cards to make your Tracker a bigger threat.

This is 100% accurate.
Re: [Deck] R/G Combo Lands
Awhile back, Smokestack was brought up as a really good answer to Miracles. Tireless Tracker combos well with Smokestack, because Tracker can make a bunch of clues, Stax can sack the clues, and Tracker's +1/+1 ability triggers off of any clue sacrifice - including Stax.
Just a thought, it could be a good combo from the board. Smokestack works well with Loam and Exploration anyway.
