It was originally to trample over delvers, but also to create a significant threat with Hexmage. Maybe it's time to drop it, I really don't have a lot of Delver in my local metagame. Not sure what I...

New list:

-2 Blooming Marsh
+2 Nurturing peatland

-1 Not of this world
+1 Life from the loam

-1 dryad arbor
+1 Boseiju

It's been a little while since I really dug into legacy, but a new LGS opened up recently and we had our inaugural legacy weekly today. I'm not an online player, I only do paper. I played a fairly...

No, it still puts up the occasional result. Here is the most recent results on mtgtop8:

The metagame is currently pretty hostile though,...

I would go with OUAT for sure. Mana isn't an issue and setting up early for free is very good. It gives you better selection.

You get hexproof from blue and black...Thassa's Oracle is blue. Maybe I'm way behind the times, but I thought Oracle was the win condition of choice with Oops.

I've been meaning to watch the...

Plus the uptick in Submerge from RUG Delver. With the uncertainty of RUG Delver's spot in the format currently, it looks like UR, Grixis, and maybe even BUG Delver will become the popular variants....

Well, I hadn't gotten around to converting my mana base to the rainbow setup for Stifle and now I think I won't. Pithing Needle seems to be a lot more valuable shutting down multiple Wastelands and...

This is the right thread, for sure.

Is this you?

I've always been of the mindset that I'd rather have some flexible disruption in the...

It goes in/out of fashion in delver decks. It was originally to win Tarmogoyf standoffs in RUG delver, but now with additional creatures causing problems (Uro mostly) it's a decent answer again. It...

It's cool, a clean answer to Submerge. I've always loved Turbo Depths as both an affordable and competitive deck. It's still my primary go-to deck for competitive play (whenever that happens again...)

I'm gearing up for when paper magic gets re-established. I'm still unsure when it will happen, but this has been my favorite deck for several years now, so I'll have it in paper and ready to go.

I know most of these threads on DTB are pretty well dead, but I saw a really fun list recently that took 2nd place in Arizona. It's a quad-laser approach with a bunch of playsets and some older tech...

DNSolver went onto the Leaving a Legacy podcast to talk about his list that won the LAL Open. He goes to great depths (pun intended) to describe how he came up with his list.

Recent result from DNSolver playing traditional Turbo Depths (ESG/Petal). No muss, no fuss list with a dedicated combo plan and lots of 4-ofs. Interesting to see a couple of things: 24 lands (4th...

I think these are just different flavors of Splinter Twin; threaten the combo and opponents can't handle the other half of the deck. I'm convinced that's why Hogaak-Depths gained so much traction....

I've been where you are at, several times. I've asked this forum for advice, then argued against that advice (which I feel to be foolish, having experienced it firsthand.) Take the discussion for...

Short answer #1: its not as efficient.
Short answer #2: it has been tried and foregone for a more reliable structure. I imagine the primer still answers this question as well.

Edit: yes, it...

Digging 5 deep is pretty good, and it gets around Chalice@1 (I'm comparing it to Ancient Stirrings.) The great part GB Depths is that there are so many options to sub in/out depending on the...

Three different versions of Depths recently top 8'ed a Legacy League, with local hero Mzfroste taking 1st place. Mox version w/Reclaimers in 1st, Maverick-ey version in 3rd (Sharkcaster Mage) and...

I like that Scheming Symmetry is a tutor for non-land cards; the deck already has Demonic Tutors for lands, but not for protection/Hexmage. I think you would want at least 1x Ghost Quarter, not only...

I just got my Reclaimers in the mail, looking forward to testing it out. Has anyone been testing it in a traditional (non-Hogaak) list?

I got a set of Reclaimer, testing will commence. I don't know if some amount of Loam/crucible/excavator will be needed with the extra land sacrifices that will be made.

I may be taking this too seriously, but whatever, here goes: I'm not the one with the burden of proof. He's making a claim ("this [untested] deck is busted, tier 1"). If he wants to make that claim,...

EDIT: Please, walk me through some games, I don't see it.
