    Re: [Deck] Strawberry Shortcake

    Picked up the old girl tonight and went for a spin in the copter.

    Felt good. Went 3-1, nearly 4-0 if I had 1 more card...no games were won by blood moon.

    Copter did feel like the real deal, on...

    Re: [Deck] Imperial Painter

    I'm am still a firm believer in the shortcake build. White offers a stronger 75 than other colours. I have still put up strong showings with it in smaller, but still high player skill events.

    My list has been unchanged in 6 months post ban. Check back a few pages.

    The key to preforming well with this deck now largely comes down to knowledge and experience.

    Speaking of sorcerous spyglass what are people's thoughts on it.

    I love the idea of seeing your opponents hand before your combo or blood Moon. Welder recurring is also a big bonus.

    Re: [Deck] Imperial Painter

    If you want to win the burn matchup play sphere of law. If you really want to have a good chance id run 2 ajani, canonist, 2 kozilek return and 1sphere. Warmth is good to but way to narrow and not...

    Unless you have a heavy white build stick the plains in the side every time. Swap for either your 1 none mesa fetch or a petal depending on how long the game is expected to go.

    Re: [Deck] Canadian Threshold (aka RUG Delver, Tempo Thresh)

    Has anyone tested Abrade yet? I'm thinking in place of fork bolt and maybe 1 dismember or pierce.

    To me relic is all about the flexibility. Why play spellbomb to kill deathrite when it can't do anything in the first place. It also plays well in lots of matchups where we are lacking in tools....

    I'm interested for what matchups the pierces are boarded out in.

    Great work. RB reanimator is tough, especially when they know we are painter and play without fear for force.

    You find the fiery confluence pulled it's weight?

    Came across an old mono red build from 2013 without tops. Some old tech I thought might be nice to share - that faithless squee combo. Keep up the good work Jack.

    Re: [DTB] Food Chain Combo

    Played in GPT today. Punted game 3 of round seven.

    Should have been 5-1-1 Going into top 8. Insteaded ended 4-2-1.

    Happy with the deck. 3 ponder feels way better than 1 sylvan on 19 lands.

    I'm still impressed with relic as a card. Making deathrite bad, slowing down storm, and beating eldrazi all while drawing your top card seems great.

    Spellbomb is good too, but not in the more...

    I would agree with this sentiment as well. I've taken a break from painter for the moment until Vegas is over and I can focus on it again. Great work Jack on continuing to carry the flag.

    How much time does the combo take if your fast at it? Do you have concerns over running this online?

    Re: [Deck] Imperial Painter

    Looks like a great foundation.

    I've always felt mono red was a 20 land deck, maybe 1 blast for the 4th city.

    Did you end up trying the more relic heavier list?

    Re: [Primer] Food Chain Combo

    I would refer to the sideboard primer on Channel fireball. Storm and sneak and show matchups we bring out the combo and control them.

    Re: [Deck] Imperial Painter

    Shutting off DRS by not playing fetches is very relevant. This is further assisted with relic. Essentially you can shut that card off, which is a pretty big deal.
