    Re: [Deck] 5c Humans

    Yoooooo. Welcome back, Reeplcheep.

    I was staring at Brazen Freebooter for a while, trying to wrap my head around why it was in that slot. Then I realized it was supposed to be Kitesail Freebooter....

    Re: Legacy Living End

    It's an interesting deck that is likely to fit into Legacy at some point, but I don't know if now is its moment. I don't think the backup plan of playing creatures is much of a plan, since the...

    Re: [Primer] BRx Griselbrand Reanimator

    It's a cool deck, but it's not Reanimator. It's a mono-black aggro deck with one more reanimation spell than UB Scam. It sometimes has a graveyard angle, but it can easily win without using the...

    Re: [Primer] Miracle Loam

    Innovative deck and beautiful guide! And congratulations on getting so close to your goal of getting all the cards signed, nonfoil, and Chinese. The deck looks great. It and the guide are clearly a...

    Well, it is Reanimator ...




    I would get the Sea. A third Badlands will make much less of a difference in terms of sideboarding options. I don't think the sideboarding question you proposed...

    Re: [Deck] U/G Infect

    On average, what's the critical turn with that list? Distorted Curiosity is in the slot I usually use for Sylvan Library, and I pretty much always paid 4 to 8 life off Library to set up for a kill....

    Re: Anyone know where to find Inquest Gamer Scans?

    Not sure if the last post was sincere or not, but anyone hoping for more scans might ping Sigmund Ausfresser (sigfig8) on Twitter and see if he's interested in scanning some of his issues. I believe...
  9. Re: 'Mississippi River' (All In Creativity Technique Combo)

    I always appreciate your detailed posts, but I think this part mischaracterizes the situation. In a 49-player event, it's very safe to double draw the last two rounds as an X-0. The only potential...

    Re: [Deck] U/G Infect

    Rotpriest seems pretty busted to me, so I would start the testing with four copies. Infect is very good at getting to 8 poison but can struggle to get the last hit in. This card makes it so...

    Re: Oops, All Spells! (Formerly The Rogue Hermit)

    I think mulling to double Solitude is pretty unlikely, especially for an 80-card list. All Spells could probably still beat that with a leftover green mana to flash back Memory's Journey, but can you...

    Re: [Primer/Deck] Zoo

    Love to see it.

    I wouldn't say Zoo had much of an issue with Chalice historically. Pridemages were stock, and most of the Chalice decks had trouble beating a Tarmogoyf. Zoo struggled against...

    Re: [Deck] Armageddon Stax

    Respectfully, Stax is hard mode in Legacy. It's a deck full of symmetrical effects in a time of asymmetry. You have to break the symmetry of Stax through deck construction, while the opposition gets...

    Always enjoy your reports, Kap'n! We have some Painter players locally. I'm going to tell them to check out your list and insights.

    Re: [Deck] Solitaire (Enchantress)

    I think with Archon vs. Sigil, you have to decide what you're going to encounter more often: Swords to Plowshares or Force of Vigor. Prismatic Ending can easily cover 0-3 CMC. The 4c control decks...

    Re: Swedish nationals (5-3-0), but learning a lot

    Thanks for the report! That looks like a tough slate of matchups, but you came out with a winning record. Plus, the deck looks fantastic. Painter players know how to win in style! :cool:

    Cool decks! I've been too tied up this month with other responsibilites to brew up anything here, but I like the environment. I think the bans were generally warranted. I played during Saga, and it...

    Rainbow Vale with Winter Orb is pretty amusing. That's a nice find.

    Phantom Centaur would be great in a black-heavy metagame.

    Yeah, the mana in this format is the largest hurdle. I was going to do Psychatog next, but your list looks good.

    Nah, you're not being trolled. It's a New and Developmental Decks thread. No one is assuming this deck is Tier 1.
