Thank you. <3.
Also, playtesting with my daughter, and we're convinced:
Stoneforge Mystic > Urza, Chief Artificer
It's a very straightforward deck thus far.
Lookin' fun:
Scaling Hulk Smash! - 20
4 Master of Etherium
4 Urza, Chief Artificer
4 Cranial Ram
4 Nettlecyst
4 Cranial Plating
Near Zerocost Evasive Glueable Non-Land Mana Acceleration -...
I suppose this is the end of an era in Legacy. It's been a long time coming. I'll treasure mine forever, just like my Skullclamps. Good times and sweet memories.

It is tricky to decide between using Tron or not. If you don't use Tron, then the control route makes more sense. I have a hard time seeing why the control version of TNN would be better than...
Do you have a list? Valtrix and I are still throwing them around. I'd be happy to see anything.
Can you elaborate on why more Omens is worthwhile? I'm already on the fence about the 1-of.

Discard and removal can be pretty strong in a control deck with a combo finish. The deck could go aggressive, but I like the control route. Beseech the Queen offers a toolbox (oh, how I loves me a...
Exhaustion can outright win games, especially if your opponent doesn't know you are playing it. I've had some hilarious blowouts with the card. The 3cc part is killing me though. This deck...
Dakra is interesting. I'll have to try it. I have my doubts about it, and I'm not sure what it should replace. I think I'd rather play a mine effect (which is generally harder to answer).
After...
Emrakul is dead in hand until you are already winning the game. By the time you get 15 land into play, you've won (I've never lost with 15 lands in play with this deck...in fact, after a decade of...
I love Rites of Flourishing here. I can't believe I didn't try it (I've played a ton of Turbo Fog). Ug plays very differently from MUC, and far less like Solidarity. The MUC version hangs on a thread...
I saw this deck the other day. It is very fun to play. It is the Solidarity of Modern.
The gist of the deck is to play a bit of control, sculpt a hand, make land drops along the way, and get a...

I'm not sure about Soul Sisters as a deck. I've been trying several variants. I think a green splash is likely worthwhile if Soul Sisters is worthwhile. At the very least, I think adding...
I agree that it has problems against combo. I agree it isn't the best version of tron for the current metagame, which I believe is MUC tron, by a long shot. I'm pretty sure it is the best version of...
I'm always surprised when so few people run MoE. I see many un-bomby versions of affinity now that just pray for Plating basically or eking it out with dorks. Further, I find these decks to be...
Another mana wall came out since the last time I tried this deck. It is a crazy simple deck at this point:
// Lands - 24
11 Forest
4 Urza's Power Plant
4 Urza's Mine
4 Urza's Tower
1 Eye of...
Canopy is tricky, particularly when you have to rely upon it but need 30 for ascendant. Might still be worth running some though.
Tutor targets are a work in progress. They generally don't make...
I recently made this deck, and it has been fun to play. I thought I'd share with anyone who is interested.
//Land - 22
4 Cavern of Souls
4 Sunpetal Grove
3 Gavony Township
4 Temple Garden
7...
I don't like Spell Burst that much. It might be the worst card in the main. The buyback is generally irrelevant in the early game, where I need the most help. Late game, this deck is a shark drowning...
I almost never want to use TWests or Map for Oboro. Singletons lands should be worth tutoring for. Oboro isn't worth tutoring for. I'm not convinced by your reasons.
Oboro may have certain tricks...
I started with the initial decklists, and I really enjoyed the deck. I thought I'd share my joy with anyone who is interested. After practicing, I've ended up slowly making changes. I've moved more...
Just wanted to say: thank you for this deck. It is hilarious, fun to play, and just plain weird (after playing thousands of decks, I tend to like the weird one). I still have this deck.
I can't...
Any status update? =) I can't wait to try it.

I've seen first seed vs. lowest seed, second vs. second lowest, and so on. I've also seen random pairings in the top. Anyone seen anything else we should take into account?
Also, I have a...
Generally, players are not paired with the same opponent more than once in the rounds. Not everyone uses the same pairings generator though. Given the bias, when there are only two players at a...
