I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking about the future metagame now that DRS (and probe) is banned. These are my brief initial thoughts:

Losers
Grixis Delver - this deck should be dead after losing...

I like your list. I agree with your thoughts regarding main deck decay, Excavator, and Leo. Since Tracker isn't a hate bear I'm personally not a fan of Tireless Tracker any more since running Leovold...

Has anyone tested new Karn in the SB against Miracles / Pile?

DNT - this is a pretty favorable matchup. I'd want removal (Decay is good, ZP is excellent), as well as a Needle as it has plenty of targets. Containment Priest is decent but not great to sometimes...

It has applications beyond just locking an opponent out of the game with Wasteland. I've extended games I otherwise would have lost by infinitely recurring Dryad Arbor to chump block a Gurmag Angler...

I love Library too. It's not as good as it used to be, though, with all the 4c Pile / Goodstuff decks running around as Leovold shuts down Library. Have always wondered about running a second (1 MD /...

I agree with this in general. I think Maverick actually would benefit slightly from a ban. Knight, Wasteland, Excavator, Ooze, Rallier all get much better in this scenario. Thalia also gets somewhat...

I used to love Sidarga but just feels bad right now with so many Baleful Strix running around.

I like Ant Queen way more than Tendershoot Dryad as at least it's a 5/5. If I'm going to run a 5-drop against decks like Pile I want something that's going to provide some value if it immediately...

Was wondering this myself. It's a really powerful effect but I'm honestly not sure what I would cut for a second copy. I know some people are down on Stoneforge right now, but I like having two in...

This is my list for SCG Worcester:

Creatures (24)
4 DRS
1 Noble Hierarch
3 Mother of Runes

4 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
2 Stoneforge Mystic
1 Gaddock Teeg

Hey guys, I was one of the Maverick players making day 2 at Worcester. You might have seen me getting a game loss handed to me by the judges on the stream in a match I would have won. I was...

I see that most lists these days run 2-3x Surgical Extraction in the sideboard.

Aside from obvious matchups where one would side them in (Dredge, Reanimator, Lands), where else do folks bring...

Thanks! This is very helpful.

As a long time GWb player, I have a hard time giving up thoughtseize. I really dislike not having potential turn 1 interaction against fast combo. i want to make it...

Hey guys. Was hoping I could get some feedback on my new Punishing Maverick list.

Lands (24)
4 Windswept Heath
3 Wooded Foothills
3 Grove of the Burnwillows
3 Wasteland
2 Savannah
1 Taiga...

Question for all the Punishing players in the room.

I see that most lists don't play Thalia in the main, and some don't even run her in the SB. How do you deal with combo (particularly storm and...
