Fluu, please use proper spelling and grammar when you can. I know I am not perfect for this since I am often on a phone that Auto corrects on me, but ur is really not the best way to type things on the site.
Jarvis can I borrow your deck?
The list he used to win the GP is in the threads second post here under "Decklists".
@ fluuu: have you ever played RGCL? If not, I would probably begin with a basic list. To get the hang of it.
Happy new year everyone.
Still a couple of hours away here, but nonthelest: happy new year!
RIP Combo Lands 2015? Where did everyone go?
What would I even cut for Prime Time in my sideboard?
Looking at
4x Krosan Grip
4x Sphere of Resistance
2x Chalice of the Void
1x Bowchikawowbog
1x Karakas
1x Molten Vortex
2x Choke
My wife, daughter, and I have been in Florida for the New Year. I've got a bunch of videos to share that I recorded before leaving. Here are the first two:
Building a Fortress #86
Building a Fortress #87
Neither showcases my best work, so the New Year portends more of the same.
To Chaosjace: Your sideboard seems fine to me. I think maybe Bog is good maindeck right now, as I say in one of these upcoming videos. Choke rules also.
The regional LGS I play in Legacy tournaments at is having another tournament. Since I did so wel with Lands last time and I had a freakin' blast with it, I'm playing it again and decided to put all of my time and effort into Lands. (goddamn do I love this deck now) This is the current list I'm running, which I think is a bit outdated. Ive seen some lists start to run Primeval Titan out of the side as another win-con; how good is he in the side? Are there any changes ya'll would make to what I have now?
Side:
1 Karakas
1 Molten Vortex
4 Krosan Grip
2 Choke
2 Trinisphere
2 Chalice of the Void
3 Thorn of Amethyst (soon to be Sphere of Resistance)
Main:
1 Riftstone Portal
1 The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale
1 Bojuka Bog
1 Glacial Chasm
1 Forest
2 Tranquil Thicket
3 Maze of Ith
2 Taiga
4 Rishadan Port
4 Thespian's Stage
3 Dark Depths
1 Ghost Quarter
4 Wasteland
4 Grove of the Burnwillows
2 Windswept Heath
1 Wooded Foothills
1 Misty Rainforest
1 Manabond
3 Punishing Fire
4 Life From the Loam
4 Gamble
4 Mox Diamond
4 Exlploration
4 Crop Rotation
For the sideboard, 3ball is old tech. They're an easy swap for Primetime and the Molten Vortex can become Sphere (thorn) number four.
For the main: I get nervous with only two Taiga since it's very important to have red sources in aggro matchups for Punishing Fire and green sources for Loam. Swapping a fetch for a Taiga is easy. That segues into only 3 Punishing Fire. Yikes. Is Ghost Quarter good enough in your meta to play it over the 4th Punishing Fire? I would also move the Karakas into the main deck since the decks where it is good are important to steal game 1.
I might be the biggest Primeval Titan advocate and I can tell you why it has such a sweet spot in my heart. In the Show & Tell matchups you have a huge advantage since your card wins the game for you almost right away (of course, unless they put Sneak Attack in, in which case you're a sad panda). Primeval Titan is also a big game against graveyard hate decks - including the mirror - because it searches up the combo and can only really be answered with Swords to Plowshares, once resolved. It's usually the biggest creature on the table and even if it isn't if you attack once with it you should have the game well in hand.
@ barcode: three Taiga? I don't have room for a third one... Care to share your list?
Regarding Prime-time: I agree wholeheartly with what barcode said, it is one of the better SB-cards.
I played this at GP SEATAC:
Main deck:
- 4 Mox Diamond
- 4 Exploration
- 4 Life from the Loam
- 4 Gamble
- 4 Wasteland
- 4 Grove of the Burnwillows
- 4 Thespian's Stage
- 4 Rishadan Port
- 4 Punishing Fire
- 3 Taiga
- 3 Dark Depths
- 3 Tranquil Thicket
- 3 Crop Rotation
- 3 Maze of Ith
- 1 Misty Rainforest
- 1 Wooded Foothills
- 1 Windswept Heath
- 1 Karakas
- 1 Manabond
- 1 Bojuka Bog
- 1 Glacial Chasm
- 1 The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale
- 1 Forest
Sideboard:
- 4 Krosan Grip
- 4 Sphere of Resistance
- 2 Chalice of the Void
- 2 Primeval Titan
- 1 Boil
- 1 Boseiju, Who Shelter's All
- 1 Volcanic Fallout
The only changes I would make for this RGCL list are to cut boil for Choke.
I've since started playing RUGb lands again.
Here are the last three videos I recorded before my holiday vacation. More will come in the future, barring unforeseen circumstances.
