Does anyone knows how to deal with MUD aggro? btw, im using Punishing Nic-Fit. What would be the MUD's sideboard weakness?
Having played MUD for a while...
With ScapeWish: Burning Wish --> Pulverize
If you have access to red mana, Shattering Spree is good, because the Replicate copies aren't countered by Chalice of the Void.
Pernicious Deed is also good to get rid of their Chalice / mana acceleration / Wurm tokens.
>_< I really need to decide on a build so I can actually finish it and play with it. Right now I'm on a Living Wish kick since Wishing for Angel of Despair against OmniTell seems strong enough to give us an advantage, but I'm sure I'll cycle through Intuition/Gifts, Breakthrough/Read the Runes, etc. until then.
What are some good BUG Gifts lists? I liked Bruizar's take on BUG Fit with Intuition + Unburial Rites a few hundred posts ago, wondering what are the alternatives / what part of the thread I should read for the Gifts version.
I would recommend doing a search of the thread for something like "underground sea". You should find pretty much just decklists for BUG lists since thats the only time anyone would really say "underground sea".Quote:

I also wonder how Abrupt Decay would fit in the BUG fit.
I guess I'll keep digging and read all the posts. Already read pages 48 to 53, 100 more pages to go.
Woo hoo! Nic Fit on camera at SCG providence. Wonder if it anyone from here. Rector fit looks like it.
Ya keep reading, its all there. I know little about BUG, never played it. But More recently (probably last 20ish) pages there has been more talk on BUG.Quote:

That seemed like a fairly loose keep against an unknown deck. Therapy was good, yosei and nightmare seems a little slow.Quote:

Yeah, to be fair: I would probably play badly in front of the camera as well. (Or more precisely: I would play even worse than I usually do, I'm a pretty average player at best.)Quote:

Not playing around Daze was pretty bad though, as well as not Snapcastering the Surgical but well.
I dont think many people really know about that interaction--especially if you've never played against it.Quote:

Gifts, Intuition, infinite combo, now Future Sight. Lets of opportunity to make your mark if you put in the playtest hours though.Quote:

Am 2-3 Bayous away from scapewish fit....So any boarding hints or deck tips would be helpful. Burning Wish is my favorite card and I have always wanted to play deed. Anyone have spicy wish targets? Also, thinking about Arianrhod's lists as my base cutting one stomping grounds to go to 60 cards and shaving the other stomping grounds for the 4th Badlands.
Edit: What about switching the Bonfires for Firespout?
