I might be in Columbus. It happens during the summer so I won't have any classes and I only live about a 1.5 hour drive away. But, in general I avoid larger tournaments particularly in Legacy which I am far from good at.Quote:

I'll be at both Charlotte and Columbus, although I have no idea if I'm actually going to play at Charlotte or not yet. I might. Faeries is almost done.
Intent is a double edged sword. Casting it exposes you in some degree (unless, you know, fetch -> Dryad Arbor, hur hur) but resolving it ensures you get whatever nasty thing you need and probably puts you in a good position to start taking over the game (or hanging on for dear life another turn b/c you had to get another PtE). Heck, I run 2. I also run more creatures than most, 8 green fetches and a Dryad Arbor though.Quote:

I'm also MD'ing Sorin by the way. Running it instead of Dromoka. Most of the time I don't GSZ for anything bigger than Sigarda anyways. Although vs. Miracles GSZ for X = 6 instead of 5 can be a thing. Fucking CB with Terminus on top...
You could always run several Jester's Caps. Capping Miracles seems like one of the coolest things ever.
Hopefully i will see you at both :DQuote:

there are certain other points why I want to switch.
how is your overall performance with you gb post list? don't u miss crop rotation/expedition map to find the posts?
you can also send me a PN if it is not of interest for all others.
I think this topic might be more helpful to you:Quote:

Perfect. Couldn't find it because 8post without space 😉
Thanks
I do have to say that I like the MCH spice, it allows to remove taiga and on paper it seems like a problematic threat against control. The will to try that card gives me the enthusiasm to play mtgo again after a little break from it
The cost of Mistcutter Hydras on modo ($.02) makes me want to try this. At worst, I lose $8.08. The spice is real.Quote:

MCH will hopefully do what I want and that is kill the miracles. I anticipate a few swords and then they die. 4 times .02 equals .08, trust me, im illiterate.Quote:

I was making a point that narrow cards don't fit this archetype well because we have the mana to do what we want and how we want it.
Ricardio? Troll? You must be new 'round here, boy.Quote:

I don't think I've ever actually lost to it ever since I switched from Pod to Rhino. But I play against the builds with diversified threats rather than Entreat. The only times I ever seem to lose are when I get locked out behind both Venser/Karakas and Counter/Top. But getting a Top of your own is very important in the match.Quote:

Or are you better off with some combination of Slaughter Games/Armageddon/From the Ashes/Carpet of Flowers?Quote:

Vraska, Garruk, Sorin - all the same piece of the pie. I think the new Sorin is more powerful for the extra mana. If Vraska were 2BG, then we'd be running that all day.Quote:
