Probably will run something like this for a while. Maindeck ratios can still be messed with (not sure how I feel about 3x Mom 3x Stoneforge 2x Cathar mainly) and I'm like 99% certain the manabase isn't going to work but I can't really afford another Savannah so I'd have to run basics or something.
Sideboard is sort of meh, might have to switch things around depending on how much reanimator I end up seeing

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
as most discussion now is on discord servers i wanted to share my actual straight-GW list:
2 Forrest
1 Plains
4 Savannah
2 Horizon Canopy
1 Cavern of Souls
1 Karakas
1 Gaeas Cradle
4 Wasteland
4 Windswept Heath
2 Verdant Catacombs
1 Dryad Arbor
1 Birds of Paradies
4 Noble Hierarch
4 Mother of Runes
3 Thalia, GoT
2 Pridemage
2 SFM
1 Ooze
1 Scrybranger
1 Teeg
4 Knights
1 Excavator
1 Rallier
1 Aven Mindcensor
4 StP
4 Zenith
1 Library
1 Jitte
1 SoFaI
-----
SB:
2 Ethersworn Canonist
1 Sanctum Prelate
1 Pithing Needle
2 Choke
2 Path to Exile
1 Krosan Grip
1 Reclamation Sage
1 Linvala, Keeper of Silence
1 Giddeon Ally of Zendikar
3 Surgical Extraction
as we have a weired local meta at time i play only 3 Thalia and 1 Aven Mindcensor (which is insane especially in Mirror Matches)
also nearly no delver lists but more prison- and vial/equipment-decks where 2 pridemages main are very useful.
still dont like playing more SFM's + Batterskull.
i think i might test a avacyns pilgrim in the spot of Birds - because only 2 colors and can block goblin lackey.
also conisder to squeeze a maze of ith or roges passage in the deck.

There's a Maverick discord? Would you mind posting a link? :)

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Asked in the discord too, but:
Specifically in the new meta - what are your thoughts on punishing vs depths vs cradle builds? Moving over from 4c pile and trying to figure out which build to start on

I believe that the punishing build could be the best with all of the small creatures and miracles about.
But the chance to win out of nowhere and how I've adapted my deck keeps me firmly in the depths plan.

Meta shift to stifle, RUG is back, Grixis changes to stifle build, this mean that cradle and Darth depths build isn't favorable, probably the best will be punishing fire to recur removal. With miracle rise straight GW or GWb with decay MD and 3cmc walkers MD isn't bad idea.

Not sure about:
- only 3 Thalia MD
- No Thoughtseize / vs Canonist
- Liliana, the Last Hope (without DRS it's hard to get 1BB) / to bad we don't have any other 3 CMC walker, which is useful
- No Sylvan Safekeeper (with Ramunap and Railler MD).
-
Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
If a 3 CMC Walker is what you're looking towards I think Nissa and Ajani Caller of the Pride are options. Nissa making a plant actually isn't the worst to fight edicts, it also can attack with exalted triggers, and the -2 ability is nice especially post board to fight -1-1 effects that have gained some value with noble being the new main mana dork. Ajani also is nice fitting in with exalted them by pumping a single dude which is nice against miracles because it allows you to pressure with a single threat to avoid over extending into sweepers. Also with a fat KOTR out his flying and Double Strike ability can be a one hit KO against an unprepared opponent.

3 Zealous Persecution
4 Thoughtseize
2 Surgical Extraction
Played a 5 round legacy classic here at Magic Stronghold games in Vancouver using this list. Was unsure on last few slots but they performed (never drew Elspeth all day though). Scryb Ranger was MVP of the day, and Marit Lage had a very strong showing ... flying is just a good ability haha. Sword was good too and I wouldn't want to cut it like those 2 Jitte lists I've seen. Not 100% sure I remember how I sideboarded but should be close.
Rd 1 vs Show and Tell 1-2
Game 1 I smack him with dudes and he doesn't do anything
Game 2 I get hit with Emrakul off sneak and slowly rebuild as Im not really drawing much but he whiffs creatures for like 10 turns in a row but eventually finds one and kills me as I joke about this Dryad Arbor doing 12 more damage.
Game 3 I keep a hand of 3 lands, Teeg, Thalia, Pridemage, Choke. He goes land petal petal show in omni cast emrakul. I got outplayed.
+1 Choke
+2 Canonist
+4 Thoughtseize
+2 Surgical
-1 Shalai
-1 Garruk
-4 Plow
-1 SOFI
-1 Jitte
-1 SFM
0-1
Rd 2 Burn 2-0
Game 1 I land Shalai and get pretty low so decide to block Eidolon when he attacks with it and a guide letting him trade eidolon+ bolt for her (I can't just not play spells and not block for the rest of the game). I drop an ooze and gain a bit of life and he drops vortex so I'm on a clock. I end up getting a 6/6 knight and 6/6 ooze and 12 him when he's at 14 and let him die to vortex.
Game 2 I stick mother plus Shalai. Feel pretty lucky that I see my 1 of Shalai both games vs the matchup it's really strong.
+2 Decay
+2 Canonist (I really don't have a good sideboard for this MU)
-1 Garruk
-1 Tracker
-1 Ramunap
-1 Library
1-1
Rd 3 BUG Delver 2-0
Game 1 I play a Garruk and it rolls him, at one point he has a TNN, a 5/6 goyf and a gurmag to my two healthy wolves and three deathtouch wolves and I have to do math on a garruk ult but I'd lose my Garruk and it'd make goyf a 6/7. It would be lethal if he blocked the deathtouchers but he's already not going to do that. I make more sick wolves, TNN eventually kills garruk in 2 hits, I get scryb ranger and I get to slowly kill him, getting to attack with sick wolves too when his TNN attacks me and then I can untap sick wolf with Ranger.
Game 2 he mulligans to 4 but I almost die to a TNN. He has an Angler to go with it but I have Scryb Ranger + Dryad Arbor fog and a sword on the ranger clocks him faster than TNN clocks me.
I honestly can't remember how I boarded. Choke came in, Zealous didn't come in, I brought in either Decays or Elspeth or both but I forget which. Forget what I cut other than Teeg, really tired forgive me.
2-1
Rd 3 Rector Fit 2-0
Game 1 he's stuck on two lands and a bunch of big drops and I flood like 8 lands none of them utility lands but I have Thalia + Jitte and it just kills him, fun game thanks Thalia, now get out of my deck for game 2 ;3.
Game 2 I thoughtseize him a couple times and then set up an ooze which blanks all his rectors and just kill him with it, feels really good to just attack into active rector, remember kids Zenith OP.
+4 Thoughtseize
+2 Surgical
+1 Elspeth
-4 Thalia
-3 Mother
3 -1
Rd 5 I.D.
Quarters - Death and Taxes 2-0
Game 1 I have Scryb Ranger, Jitte and a bunch of stuff going on and I'm able to outgrind double brightling plus vial on 3 (really annoying btw)
Game 2 he has early Avenger with War and Peace on it putting me to 2 and him to 26. I hail mary Marit Lage while I have mother in play, I then land Scryb Ranger. I can't start attacking yet as he's kinda wide and I have to use my nobles to play creatures and then untap them to represent blockers so he can't sneak in 2 damage. Eventually I'm able to have a wide enough board I can swing with Lage and then vigilance it with Ranger and once he's low enough for 1 hit to kill him we go Mom pro protection on lage, he plows, I untap mom and protect again in response. We did have to dodge Karakas for a couple turns which we did but if he drew it a bit later after we gone wide we weren't just dead as we still had Ranger + Mom which is really hard to deal with.
+3 Zealous
+2 Decay
-4 Thalia
-1 Teeg
#NeverCutDepths. Is the 1 Thalia or 1 Thoughtseize better than the 1 Shalai post board? I doubt it, Shalai flies, don't let the Karakas fear seep in it gets nailed by our wastelands a lot.
Semi's - Miracles 2-0
Game 1 He doesn't really do much outside of a Gideon of the Trails (!) that's ticking up on my big Knight while I'm grinding out cards with Ramunap and eventually that plus Thalia kill Gideon and then he just dies after.
Game 2 I keep Bird, Noble, Zenith, Garruk, and some lands. Turn 2 I think a bit and decide to Zenith for 2 threatening Teeg even though the only action in my hand after is Garruk which I wouldn't be able to cast, he forces it and then next turn I slam Garruk and he can't deal with it, it makes a wolf every turn until the game ends and they devour 2 Jace's before eating him as well. Opponent didn't see a sweeper the whole match.
+1 Elspeth
+1 Choke
+2 Decay
-3 Plow
-1 Ooze
Opponent is on 0 Snapcaster Mages so I cut Ooze, it's a sweet list with Teferi's though.
Split finals, $160 each

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Hello all, there didn't seem to be a subreddit set up for the deck, so I went ahead and made one: https://www.reddit.com/r/MTGMaverick/
Please feel free to add content there, and discuss the deck. I know for a lot of people (such as myself), Reddit can be a great tool for this kind of stuff. The sub is brand new so... it definitely needs some love and content to get it off the ground.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Had a tournament where I played miracles twice and Omnisneak once.
How do we beat them? I've tried various strategies against miracles and had very little luck.

Miracles is bad. Your best best is to thoughtseize/surgical one of their two removal and use your bears to blank the other (surgical stp, cast Teeg // surgical terminus, cast prelate on 1). Or if you can land a timely choke or an equipment and fetch dryad arbor after terminus.
Omni is unwinnable unless they draw poorly.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Just got back from playing at gp Richmond with GWb Maverick. Very happy with the deck and my finish. Day one I ended with a 6-0-2 record, finished day two at 9-3-3. Got 30 points and my first pro point! Losses were miracles, elves, and sneak and show. I ended up playing against miracles 6 times in 15 rounds ugh. I'll post my list here when I get the chance.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Hello everyone! I'm new and I'm getting into legacy. I just purchased some duals so I can play a real deck. This is the list I am going to play:
4 mother of runes
4 birds of paradise
4 knight of the reliquary
3 stoneforge mystic
1 scryb ranger
1 qasali pridemage
1 ramunap excavator
1 voice of resurgence
1 scavenging ooze
1 dryad arbor
2 umezawa's jitte
1 batterskull
1 sylvan library
4 green sun's zenith
4 swords to plowshares
4 punishing fire
4 wooded foothills
4 windswept heath
4 wasteland
3 grove of the burnwillows
2 savannah
2 forest
1 plateau
1 taiga
1 plains
1 karakas
Of all this cards I don't have only the wastelands and 1 savannah, so I think I'm at a good point in building the deck. What do you think about it? Do you have any suggestions? Also for the sideboard
Thank you and sorry for my bad english
-
Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
welcome @alvoi
your list should be a good start playing, but if you ever can purchase some noble hierarchs, get em!
i see its a budget reason, but if you play 4 birds you should play at least 1 Sword of XY (Fire & Ice) because birds cant attack/block with equipped jitte on them and you never get profit out of that.
also if you have access to Discord https://discord.gg/rgsSje4, your welcome to join us . there is a P.Fire channel where good players discuss that archtype

Thank you!
I know that the birds of paradise are a budget reason, but I think also that we need a lot of red mana. So when I will buy the hierarchs I think I will also add another red source (maybe the second taiga?).
But for now, I think I will play with birds. The sword is a nice idea, which do you think is better? I was thinking about sword of feast and famine because it is also good against combo (making them discard so they have less cards), and combo is one of our worse matchups. What would you remove for the sword? Another equipment? Maybe I can move the batterskull to the sideboard, I think jitte is too powerful and playing 2 copies is good against artifact removal (we don't have any recursion so when a jitte dies the only way to have it again is to have a second copy). What do you think?
For the sideboard, I was thinking about playing: 1 bojuka bog, 2 pyroblast, 1 gaddock teeg, 4 thalia guardian of thraben (so I can switch her with punishing fires in some matchups). But then I don't know what else. Maybe something like manriki-gusari, or the second qasali pridemage?
EDIT: I don't have discord so I think I will just stay here :smile:
Thank you!

Welcome, check out the section of the Primer on Page 1 which focuses on the Punishing Fire version if you haven't already!
-
Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Yeah I read it and it was really nice, thank you!
So, after reading it, I have some cards that I would like to put in the deck (but I don't know what to remove):
— Sword of Feast and Famine (also because Skizz said it). I tried the sword (instead of the batterskull) and it was really nice, even though I think the batterskull is better in some matchups (like control). So, what can I remove for the sword? Now I'm playing with 3 SFM, 2 jittes and 1 batterskull. Could I move to 3 SFM, 2 jittes, 1 batterskull and 1 sword? Or shall I remove the second jitte? I really like it though, it is very useful in a lot of matchups.
— Tireless Tracker. I have played it in modern in the Todd Stevens deck (the one with Ramunap Excavator, Azusa, Courser of Kruphix and so on) and it really shined. I think it would be a nice fit also in maverick, but again: what to remove? Maybe I can get rid of voice, against decks with plow it does nothing; the tracker instead at least cycles (obviously I would play it only before my land drop, so I can take advantage of a clue before the opponent plows/bolts it.
— Gaddock Teeg. I see that everyone plays it in the maindeck. I would rather play it in sideboard, so I will ask you: why do you play it in the maindeck? Is it okay if I play it in sideboard, or shall I play it in maindeck?
— Horizon Canopy. I don't own the card yet but I think in the future I will buy 1-2 copies. It is a really nice land, but our manabase is really tight for now: I can't remove the dual lands (or can I?), neither the fetchlands, the utility lands or the basic lands. So the choice is: I can get rid of 1 Savannah or 1 Wasteland for Horizon Canopy. What would you do? Removing the second savannah would be better for budget reasons, but I cannot think only about budget, I have to think also about the best choices for the deck! So I'm not sure.
I hope you will answer me, sorry if I'm not good at english but I'm italian so in my mind I'm thinking in italian and it is difficult to translate.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
@alvoi:
- regarding Swords X/Y:
best sword is still Sword of Fire and Ice because of the following reasons :
pro Blue: fights through TNN and Strix / pro Red : good against Bolt/Goblins etc (less important)
draw a card : very good CA to get more pressure out of the deck.
next best sword = Sword of Light and Shadow:
pro white: great against Death and Taxes and mirror/ swords to plowshares
pro black: great againts Death Shadow / Angler Fish / Strix / black removal in general
recursiuon gets you back Pridemage etc. / lifegain is "ok" but not relevant at all
feast and famine
pro green and pro black is good against the most creature colours but the effect to untap lands is marginal
make the opponent discard is "ok" but if you use it against combo decks - its way too slow to connect.
dont recommend it at actual meta
==> swap the 2nd jitte for sword fire and ice and test it a few games
(also if you want a good recursion card -> renegade rallier brings you back all CMC2 or less permanents (jitte/Pridemage/wasteland etc.pp)
- regarding Tireless Tracker:
way better than voice of resurgance (would swap it in your deck)
its one of the best CA Engines we have - especially in long grindy games it will push you ahead.
- reg. gaddock teeg:
its a core-hatebear which you should never remove in your maindeck.
imagine you play turn 1 manadork / turn two GSZ for gaddock teeg against a combodeck like ANT - its immediatly game over for them preboard.
also stops jace, terminus, force of will, challice, sneak attack etc.
- reg. horizon canopy
its a good card and you can swap one wasteland for it (punishing fire mostly only plays 3 wasteland)
-
Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Oh, thank you a lot! Following your advices I made this changes:
-1 voice of resurgence
-1 wasteland
-1 jitte
+1 sword of fire&ice
+1 canopy
+1 tracker
+1 gaddock
Now I'm playing with 61 cards (I don't know what to remove) and it's fine I hope.
I'm thinking about swapping the sylvan library for a renegade rallier in the maindeck, and put the library in sideboard. What do you think?
My sideboard for now:
1 bojuka bog
4 thalia guardian of thraben
2 pyroblast
1 umezawa's jitte
1 life from the loam
1 gaddock teeg
1 sylvan library
3 surgical extraction
What would you add to my sideboard? Maybe something else for combo matchups?
Thank you all!
-
Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
you could cut 1 fetch land to go back down to 60 cards
i dont know your meta BUT
i would suggest you cut the 1 Jitte and 1 Thalia for 2 ethersworn canonists
normally you dont need life from the loam in general -> you could bring in reclamation sage for additional hate on artifacts/enchantments.
deck should be fine for now. let us know how it works :-)

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
with Ramump you want knights, wastelands, and horizon

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
I think that this new card can solve some problems to maverick's and could worth splash black for it.

It's a fine complememt to QPM though.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
Knight is way more comparable to Rec Sage than it is to pridemage. They do completely different things. I can see them working side by side but not one over the other.
Do you play rec sage? If yes, it should be Knight. -- If not, do you play 2 pridemages? If yes, the second should be knight. Otherwise, stick with pridemage.

Re: [Primer] Maverick 2.0 - GW/x
If your meta is more combo / mass removal oriented you can easily cut all moms (I use only 1 Sylvan Safekeeper as protection on demand under GSZ), that free slots for more CA creatures like Renegade Railler or Tireless Tracker which is very good and you should consider it MD imo, I'm not a big fan of Voice of Resurgence, I would rather put SFM since it always bring CA.
Soon Black splash will get Decay on Steroids, which would be 4-of probably MD, since it can kill lands and walkers on instant.
Mistcutter hydra ? Vs which deck, It's just cute and totally useless, probably better use Tindermare if you wan't haste, unblockable creature (it can be GSZ).

IN my meta i expect lots of combo, eldrazi (mom....), control with big removal.
Mistcutter his my personal choice against hard control (i.e preban UBG control).
it kills jace and every pw because of haste + hexproof is a sort of removal for planeswalker in late game, when you lost your resource and oppo too, he cast pw and you cast this and it's really good.
Tindermare what is? i guess is misspell but i did not understand what you mean (except thundemare lol)
Tireless Tracker: i test it, too slow for my playstile. I always have other to do than sacrifice clues.
Voice: i was skeptical about, but after some playtest i think is fucking good, it does 2 x 1 most of time and i love it. I advice you to test it.
Now i'm thinking of
-3 mom
+1 gsz
+1 wasteland
+1 safekeeper
SFM are nice, but whit decay\trophy i guess it will lose sense.
Maybe with decay+trophy mom could became usefull again.
