Yeah, my pet deck retained its niche in the meta. Why aren't more people happy about that? :confused:Quote:

For the record, I play almost exclusively non-blue decks, but am still an advocate for Dig Through Time (and Brainstorm and Top and Show and Tell) remaining legal.Quote:

That was sort of my point. I wasn't pretending to be you above, I was pretending to be me. My deck is totally nichie-er. :tongue:Quote:

Yet Mishra's Workshop is a 4 of in 25-30% of a large field. Brainstorm is a 4 of in 80% of a Legacy field. You people are demented and math impaired.Quote:

DTT remains legal in the format? While I'm not suprised that Erik Lauer is a lazy PoS, it's terrifying that he leaves DTT in the format, even if it's just for another 2.5 months.
Oh well, time to consider buying some Lilianas and switching to Aggro Loam.
Which doesn't actually have a good match-up against Omni, so good luck with that.Quote:

51% of the format plays it and 73% play Brainstorm. I guess your condition is already metQuote:

Tell me how exactly a DTT ban would hurt combo less than midrange and control decks.Quote:

Remember to jump to conclusions and put as many words in your opponent's mouth as you can fit.
Great so I guess I'll sell Elves.
