HEY GUYS!
What do u think about playing GUTTERSNIPE as one or two-off in this deck??
The effect seems pretty well but maybe a bit too slow....
Please give me your opinions :)

Hi, I have a serious troubles with merfolk decks... This matchup seems impossible to win. The sideboard cards 2x grim, 2x pyroblast, 2x pithing needle, 2x smash to smithereens (my meta contains merfolks chalice version) are good but not enough good. Basically every their creature is bad for us (8 lords, 4 TNN, 4 image etc). Any advise about strategy or sideboarding?
The matchup is all about keeping tempo, if you lose tempo early on there's no coming back, but if you can pace out your removal and snipe the anthem creatures you should be ok.
The chalice build is especially rough, because a resolved chalice on 1 is game over, and we can't use counterspells against cavern of souls. I think I would side out daze, but chalice is a must-counter so it's a hard call. Side in pyroblast/extra removal and hold your counterspell up for chalice, bolt/blast everything else. I play three pyroblast in the board because it's crazy good in my meta.
If WotC is fancy with those new wedge flavour names and SCG is supporting thus, then why the fuck aren't they callong this Izzet Delver???
I am UR Delver and Merfolk player and I can assure you that all merfolk decks will be Chalice main versions until Cruise gets banned.
Does anyone have a link for the top-whatever decklists from Eternal Weekend? I am at work right now and I cannot seem to find anything. I would be interested to see the UR list (if any changes were made) and how people sideboarded.
Thanks!
So I keep seeing Electrickery, has anyone tested Bonfire ? or is it just wishful thinking? It seems good in the mirror, and against creature based decks
It seems good, but I honestly don't think UR Delver Pyro is "the deck to beat" now. I mean, not like TNN was some time ago, when people had -1/-1 effects on SB exclusively for him.
That being said, I'm playing 4 forked bolt in my deck as it's good against this deck and SFM/DRS/Other Delver decks, not to mention D&T, elves, and so the list goes on... Actually, my list is based on the fact that there are almost no combo on my meta now, I wouldn't recommend a decklist without FoW MB in normal circunstances. Last tournament I sided it out EVERY SINGLE GAME! I'm still going to make some adjustments, but I think this is pretty close to what I will be using in the next tournament

I expect: Lots of Delver decks, D&T, Miracles, jund, some combos (about 10-15% of the meta). Against most combos (at least the ones that play here - S&T, Reanimator, dredge, ANT) my sideboard is pretty good with Fluster, Ensnaring Bridge, FoW and Pyroblast. I actually thought about taking out daze, but it's upside on T1 to T3 is just too big to ignore it.
I tried Electrickery in the board, and didn't really find any use out of it because I was already running 3 forked in the main, and didn't really want to board anything out for it, or wanted to board more important things. I also didn't play in any mirrors or vs. Elves, so I don't know if my sample size for the card is good enough :)
Can a mod move this to the DTB?
How good is Monastery Swiftspear in the mirror?
Is blood moon needed?
How does this deck stand up vs the rug versions with rough/tumble (sometimes goose)
Hey guys,
Any tips on fighting miracles?
Cheers
I know this may be narrow, but recently I have learned that Energy Field is just a auto lose most of the time. So with all these maindeck EF I was thinking maybe putting in a thought scour? It can help for TS and it can mill them to kill EF without a RiP, Thoughts? Apologize if this has been stated
Pyroblast...?
