My sb is:
2 E-Tutor
2 Canonist
2 RiP
2 Cataclysm
2 Liege
2 R. Bomb
1 Cage
1 Needle
1 Relic
Has been working for me.
In which scenarios do you find Relic superior to RiP?Quote:

On a slightly different note:
I think alongside 2 ETs rocking additional 4 slots for gy hate is overkill (especially these days). Imo you could easily get away with cutting one and make room for some creature hate, which indeed is almost inexistent in your sb.
Any feedback on this list for Scg Seattle tomorrow?
4 mom
4 Thalia
4 wisp
4 Revoker
4 sfm
2 mango
2 brimaz
2 crusader
4 vial

1 batterskull
1 sofi
9 plains
4 waste
4 port
4 karakas
1 castle
1 cavern

Looks a lot like my list, but I have 3 Serra Avenger in place of the Mangara's and one of the Revokers. I don't run a Castle (because I don't own one) and I only run 3 Karakas (because I own 3...LOL). I think it looks strong. With the 4 Karakas, Mangara can be in his old glory.Quote:

Good luck bro! Have fun, kick butt, and take names.
Thanks Batman!Quote:

Still working on the tournament report, but to answer a few questions I felt mangara was going to be to slow, but almost ran one in the board for more slow match ups. Running the spellskite was mostly for the jund match up, as it actually won me my round 8 match by protecting my RIP from a decay. For TNN I technically have a ratchet bomb which kills it, but it is mostly all my flyers that help that match up and even a brimaz can attack into it. One round against uwr delver he had a tnn with a bskull on it for like 10 turns and lost the game. Anyway should have report up soon.Quote:

Runed Halo did some amazing work this weekend. Probably my MVP. Meekstone took a lot of people by surprise and was pretty damn good!
Got my hands on golf clubs style StP this weekend. Yeah....Im pimping the deck since I shelved Elves! for an indefinite period of time.
Im gonna stick with that list for a while I think.
Only if you don't have Aether Vial. Aether Vial on 3 plus Mangara plus Karakas is good times. Also, this deck ends up playing the control role more often than the beatdown and has a good late game against many decks, so being a little slow in some areas isn't that bad.Quote:
