I think that running Spirit as a 3 of is a worth a shot. The mana really just needs to be black based. What the Spirit can do for Jund is give us time against combo decks, and for the fair blue...
For one thing, double black is usually easier to achieve in this deck than UU. Also this deck typically just does not care about TNN as much as other fair decks. Stalker is one of those reasons as...
Been testing a bit more and currently have come to this build. Pyroman is good, and really plays well with Bob as Bob just draws more gas for Pyroman, but DRS is just too good not to play if you...
Yeah, I missed the wording on Shattering Spree, and it is probably better to run Volcanic instead of Badlands. Any thoughts on Dark Triumph? I've played about 5 games with it in and its really not...
I've been testing this deck myself with my buddy and have come up with this list so far.
12 Creatures
4 Dark Confidant
4 Delver of Secrets
4 Young Pyromancer
30 Instants/Sorceries
4 Force...
I've been running a Grixis Tempo build lately. Though it's really rather a R/Ub burn build rather than a tempo deck with Wasteland. Bob has been great. When he sticks, he just wins (as usual) and...
If you're going to drop Tombstalker for Mongoose I would go -3 Ghastly Demise, -1 Darkblast; +2 Ponder +1 Fetchland & +1 Hymn. You really want to have 4 Ponders I think, definitely at least 19...
I think Dark Confidant works just fine in a BUG Delver list, but the typical list being run needs some adjustment. If I'm running Bob, I cut the Hymns for 4 Thoughtseizes. While Thoughtseize does...
So, I've been running a U/B Stiflenought list, and been very, very happy with the results. Vision Charm is very cool tech. It's either essentially a 5-mana ritual for Stalker, an enabler for...
Probably BUG Delver to be honest. I love the fast clock provided by Delver against combo decks, and BUG has a good game against RUG typically. UR Delver is tough as they can just burn through you...
Yeah, if the blue count is really an issue, certainly a Ponder or two could be added in place of something. However cutting Bob for Strix is no good. Strix simply does not deal enough damage, and...
Eh, Esper-blade typically only runs 18ish blue cards, I have not had a problem having enough blue with 17 Maindeck. As for Thoughtseize, yeah you might want to run a split of 2 Inquisition/2...
I've been having fun playing BUG Delver for the last few months. I've decided to try and run a control-ish list. This is what I've come up with, and I've not been disappointed so far. I...
I'm loving the Sinkholes myself. They are great against Stoneblade and Miracles, a little less so against Jund, but still one of the better plans (I might try and test out Chill like some have been...
Awesome! Years ago I tried to come up with a B/R Diablo themed deck. Love this article.
It would be nice to dust off a copy of Ichneumon Druid....
I agree Divert/Misdirection is also awesome against Jund, as well as Team America. I can see Timely Reinforcements as a good tool there as well. I still don't like running Wastelands in this deck,...
I would not cut Perish for Strix, I would cut some of the less important sideboard options some lists run, like extra discard or extra spell pierces. They do run 3-4 Wastes, but that is not an...
Baleful Strix can also murder Goyf, and Bloodbraid Elf. It can recur with Academy out, and it replaces itself with a card draw. Card advantage is one of the best ways to combat Jund as they have...
Another option you may wish to consider is 2 Baleful Strixes in the SB. There's also crazy synergy with Academy Ruins if you're running that.
I know how good Library is, it's honestly one of my favorite cards and I hate to remove it, but I really find that I want some 1CMC removal against the vast amount of Delvers, Shamans, Lavamancers,...
Yeah, so Paralyze was not that good. I was thinking rather than the sideboard, putting it maindeck as a 3-of while cutting Abrupt Decay to 3, as I just wanted more 1 CMC removal. Instead of the 3...
I may get roasted for this, but I'm going to test Paralyze as a 2-3 of in the board. It's not instant speed, but it is 1CMC black removal (sort of). It certainly plays well with Wasteland and...
I tried running Bob instead of Tombstalker, and in this deck, it's just not the right play. I was unhappy with Tombstalker against Stoneblade builds, but as good as Bob is, he's not a big threat you...
