    What do you think of Fieldmist Borderpost as another budget option?

    Hi guys,

    Nice to see that this thread is still going. I haven't played Parfait in a decade but I think about it from time to time. When a new spoiler is released, I still have the reflex of going...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    I won't play Legacy until next month. I plan to test (nameless one)'s decklist. However, it will probably include 2 Isochron Scepter and 4 Orim's Chant, as I think the combo needs to be better...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    What I'm saying is that Counterbalance will still be used vs decks that do not play Abrupt Decay, i.e. Parfait.

    So yes, we might see less Counterbalance, but no, it won't disappear completely, and...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    I disagree. Many u/w lists only run Counterbalance in the sideboard. I don't think Counterbalance will disappear at all.



    No. This is a replacement ability, so those cards never touch the...

    Exactly.

    In my testing, running Timely Reinforcements was very good vs any creature-based deck. I encourage you to try it. It buys you time.

    You can see the limits of Moat. A board...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    I'm not convinced about a red splash. Back in the days, Blood Moon was really strong but the advent of fetchlands made it much less lethal. In my opinion, the cards you list add nothing to the...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    I built it to win vs Sligh. Then I tweaked it to deal with other matchups. Mono-b was played a lot and Land Tax was just an incredible card vs it. Mono-u was also there, but at that time it had lots...

    Oblivion Ring is just more flexible than other disenchant effects (deals with creatures and Planeswalkers) and is a tutorable anti-creature. You can always side it out game 2 for more dedicated...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    I haven't played vs Goblins in a while, but I'd say having 4 wrath effects would help a lot. What killed you exactly?



    The deck needs a way to Tax more efficiently. Land Tax is best played when...

    Re: [Deck] W/x Parfait (Tax/Rack Control)

    No. This card is central to the strategy (Terminus).



    In my opinion, yes. Resolving a Top is easier than a Scroll Rack and it makes it possible to Terminus during an opponent's turn. I'm...

    Match 1 vs Maverick

    @Pelikanudo:

    I don't know if Maverick is popular at your place, but you have no outs if Gaddock Teeg hits the battlefield before Humility.

    If you play Plateaus, you should play Charbelcher as...

    Depending on your build, you might not have lots of mana available to power EtA. Also, EtA has bad synergy with Humility.

    You don't want to lose a single game. :)

    Winning the first one is essential, and not losing the second one is kind of ok. Try to win both games!

    This is not a sideboard suggestion. I simply listed additional interesting sorcery cards in White and Red, and Pyroclasm and similar cards were listed earlier in my explanations.
