@IBA: Great post, you've talked me around from "No ban" to "I don't know enough to say."

As IBA said, if non-blue decks just aren't good enough, getting rid of Brainstorm seems like the least...

However, it's worth noting that every Swords they use on your Coatls is a Swords they don't use on your Goyfs.

Pattern of Rebirth seems pretty clunky, and Tarmogoyf is rarely a bad inclusion. Do -4 Pattern and +4 Tarmo if you can afford it.

Also, make sure you have some Orim's Chants in your sideboard as...

Mind getting his list? The more sample decklists we can get in this thread the better.

I've loved Cloud ever since block. Making this work would be awesome.

Something you guys might be interested in from Shadowmoor:

Tattermunge Maniac {R/G}

Goblin Warrior
Attacks each turn if able

2/1

While it might be a...

I would classify all of them but number 3 as the Rock.

#3 plays Dark Ritual. This is basically the sticking point for me. The Rock is based in multiple colors, and is not overly concerned about...

Does anyone remember how the Japanese list for T2 Ghazi-Glare played 1 Birds of Paradise and 3 Llanowar Elves for precise mana ratios and stuff? Probably not, as Legacy players are too cool for T2. ...

In a deck where storm is not a factor, isn't Land Grant worse than fetchlands?

Think about it. In order to put a Forest into play, Land Grant costs one card, one land drop, and lets your opponent...

If you're running Street Wraith already, what's the point of running Land Grant over fetchlands? Both cards effectively do the same thing, but Land Grant lets your opponent take a look at your hand...

Spoken like someone who has never played with Confidant. Ever. Myr Enforcer doesn't usually make the cut in those lists, and even so, Affinity is one of the fastest aggro decks in the format. It's...

Trygon Predator would probably have to be the best candidate, but you'd probably want to run extra miror match hate in the sideboard to balance it out. It seems to me the best answer would be to run...

First of all, I think the curve needs to be lowered quite a bit. Everything seems just too slow, especially with little to no disruption. I would suggest Chalice of the Void and a few counters, but...

So... is Birds of Paradise good or bad for you? Couldn't quite understand you there.

I actually wonder if you really want those Cities of Traitors. This is a lot like Faerie Stompy, but a key...

Shouldn't Birds of Paradise be in the first deck? Sure, it might be dead if you have a Chalice for one out, but it's simply the nature of mana sources to become dead draws. And if you play it early...

If you played a single copy of Traumatize, than you wouldn't need your opponent's creatures to win. I know the double U casting cost might be tough, but it really doesn't matter when you cast it. The...

I have not played black thresh, but if you don't mind me asking, why are the draw two spells necessary? The current builds of other flavors of thresh have cut them, and Dark Confidant gives you an...

Oops. I didn't even realize my build was outdated. Stupid me ;/.

I'd also like to call your attention to two things here. You didn't even counter something with Force of Will once, and he always...

I've not been an avid Nausea player, but when the entire idea of a deck is blazing speed, talking about not going for speedy wins is kind of stupid in my opinion. Gro will make its hand better. You...

Interesting, very interesting. I'd like to see a few more tools for dismantling combo in there, but otherwise, very nice. One question though: Why Helldozer? It seems like Kokusho or something would...

Sounds like a plan to me. I've always loved Call of the Herd. Thanks for your help.

I do play Iwamori over Rumbling Slum. I forget why I made that decision, but it's worked out pretty well. Does it make a serious difference against mono white Angel Stompy? The Angel Stompy IS going...

Does 4 copies of anarchy in the board solve the Angel Stompy matchup if I'm willing to devote that much space? By solve, I mean: go 50/50. Angel Stompy recently won a tournament on magic-league.com,...

Actually, he's 1R, and if you pay a green mana for the colorless requirement, he destroys an artifact. He's even better than shaman in some ways because you don't HAVE to destroy an artifact....

Even if it is a much better Pyrokinesis, it's not worth the card disadvantage. You're going for the HEAD, dang it. 2 cards for 2 damage is not efficient. Flamebreak, at worst, deals 3 damage for 1...
