It's easy to play around Daze and Pierce. Resolving NO takes Rough out of the equation. Rough seems like an argument against Glimpse rather than NO. Force is the only concerning card on that list....
I like the utility and safety of Thoughtseize. If it's in my opener I'm not afraid to lead with it and try to clip a Delver or catch a sideboard card, but I wouldn't T1 Cabal Therapy naming...
This is exactly what I was talking about in my introduction about how to build and how to play the deck. I think it is completely viable to sideboard out NO in the matchup and focus on controling...
I have considered it. One problem is that I have about 65 cards I want in my maindeck and 30 I want in my sideboard. When it comes time to start shaving the cuttable cards, he's one of the first to...
I meant no disrespect. I would be equally frustrated to have been burnt out of that tournament by anyone.
Burn is a combo deck, so you want some discard. Thoughtsize will rarely be worth the 2 life, so I just bring in Therapies. It's also really hard to win with Eidolon in play, so you'll need Abrupt...
That's one way to look at it. I look at it as a deck that already has only 14 lands that tap for mana on turn 1. The deck mulligans a lot. It mulligans very well, but it does it a lot. Adding a...
When I was preparing for this event and digesting as many decklists as I could there was actually a 61 card Elves deck that Top 8'ed a Star City event recently. I remember staring at the list trying...
I'm willing to believe you're completely right. GSZ gets around Chalice on any number, you can stop ground attacks pretty effectively, Cradle beats their spheres, and you'll outdraw them every game...
True, I did jam the second Choke in case you could deal with the first one the turn before you cast Quasali. I think it was good against you because all Elves needs is breathing room, Choke doesn't...
Greetings internet people. When you last heard from me I was regaling you with my top 16 report from Tales of Adventure Comics' Eternal Extravaganza 1 (linked below). I'm pleased to say I'm back...
Thanks for the bump danyul.
I haven't been active in any online communities for a few years now, but I have to post in this thread since my current list came from ideas shared here.

Hi everyone, my name is Brian and I play Elves. (Hi Brian!)
This past weekend I took the deck to the Tales of Adventure Comics Eternal Extravaganza. The prizes and promotion for the event were...
One last bump. Event is a little over a day away. Come win some fetches and byes.
Judge is confirmed, prizes are in hand and ready to go, event is less than a week away. Make plans to get here if you're within driving distance.
...
Also we're looking for a judge for this event. At the moment I'm planning on doing it, but I'd rather play since I'm planning on going to Providence. If you're interested (and certified) let me...

If you use Facebook and plan on coming, let us know!
I'll be at the GP 100% (as a player). Any other Americans planning on going should PM me for some playtest/hangout time the day before.
I'm interested in hearing opinions about Chris Hartten's top 16 deck from the last Philly 5k. For reference:

Yeah, I'm actually a little upset with my timing. I'm usually the first to get a car together to go to the Vestal events. Those guys do good work. But I'm transferring to Europe in a little under...
