    Re: [DTB] Blade Control

    Dread of Night shuts off most of the deck - after that, you generally just need to handle Stoneforge and Serra Avenger.

    Re: What is Miracle's poor matchup?

    Bant is actually a pretty tricky matchup for Miracles - it has access to the Teeg/Safekeeper combo, which is difficult to untangle, and it can land Jace faster than you can, all backed by...

    Hopefully I haven't gotten anything horribly wrong here; travel and a sprained list delayed this report longer than I had...

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    How are you managing to set up T1 Thoughtseize, T2 Stoneforge Mystic, and T4 Jace without fetching up your duals? And how are you fitting that many basics into your three-color list? I was unable...

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    Re: [DTB] Miracle Control

    You had boarded out just one high tide - I won game 2 with pure discard, no extracts, so you weren't sure I had them.

    I wasn't sure if it was right to extract your forces or not, since it would...

    This was somewhat sillier than you remembered - that's actually the Stoneblade player's life total, not yours. All of those life total changes happened during your turn 3, when I forced your High...
