Yeah the green count isn't high enough for that reliably. That's why I added 2 surgical sideboard instead of Endurance #3 & #4.
Force of Vigor was mostly added as another 0 mana spell to cast...
Yeah I have found the matchups against removal quite alright, Uro also lines up quite well against that. The fear of those Swords/Ending blowouts is also exactly the reason I didn't want 4 Stifle,...
Well preferably if you can play it + dreadnought the same turn, that's basically game over. But even just playing it the turn before a Urza's Saga goes off is quite good, there aren't all that much...
At happens very often, at least once each match this far. And it's great fun every time. As soon as you do it once it usually chains into another dreadnought if you want as well. So in the end you...
I don't write here very often. But I play a lot of mtgo. Decided to brew a bit with Dreadnought and built the following list. I have only played 2 leagues with it this far. But 5-0ed both of them....
If your only red cards are 3 blasts I think 2 volcanic is enough and preferred. You might run into a game where you get wasted of red but still have 1 blast left in the deck and lose because of it,...
The main problem with ceremonious rejection is that it doesn't work very well against Chalice, which is the main way eldrazi & mud beats us. You rarely die with a disenchant in hand to a attacking...
I agree with you, they are not agresive enough that you should have to keep in all Swords to Plowshares.
With my last list in the recent legacy challenge I boarded down to 1 stp in these matchups...
You are correct that I had to write some shorter answers to most of the questions. And I agree that this is a good place to maybe go into depth on those worth discussing more. I also like how you...
So I wrote a small FAQ for the deck. Since people seem to return to the same questions in cycles every few months. Anyone is free to comment in the document if they find typos, if they disagree with...
Played the deck again during the legacy challenge. Made some changes since last time to make the deck better against other fair decks since I expected a lot of grixis delver. This was the latest list...
Erayo was good for me in that shell, but in order to make it good I had to add more 0 Mana spells in the baubles, and most of the time the baubles are weaker than the alternatives (preordain or peek)...
I played a esper mentor deck in the last legacy challenge. Got 13:th place. 5-2 in matches. Here's the list from wizard's site.
Thanks for the post. That was precisely my journey with the original RUG deck slowly transitioning into UWRg right after the top ban. Happy to know that it wasn't just a small sample size thing....
It is fine when you have a ballista, especially since it is all open information and deterministic, so they can concede long before you reach 40 mana. The problem is when you don't have ballista and...
Conguratilations of the 1:st place finish. Yeah game 1 I kept 1 plains 2 stp on a mull to 6 I think, knowing I was fine with missing a landdrop for a turn, but my 2:nd land turned out to be another...
After playing some more I think I like the version with nivmagus elemental more than the one with the planeswalkers. It is just more focused and better at doing one thing properly instead of doing a...
Thank you.
You should, it is a lot of fun.
My local paper meta is also very non blue, which makes decks like this worse for sure, but not unplayable. I think you could do ok but trying to...
That card does seem powerful, but it is also very far away, so we can probably discuss it during the proper spoiler season if it is true.
I decided to try Monastery Mentor maindeck during the...
I played another league with the deck. And got another 4-1.
2-0 Miracles
2-1 Manaless Dredge (I think this is a horrible matchup)
1-2 Death & Taxes (he had an really impressive comback in g3...
Now I haven't played the deck. But it feels like you want to have either maindeck Chalice of the Void. Or fewer sol lands. 8 are very many and they don't come for free when you have a hand full of...
I tried out the deck for the first time today. I played a smaller local paper tournament. Finished with a record of 3-1. Not really big enough to mean anything. I usually like playing on mtgo but I...
The version with 4 flusterstorm and 3 niv magus cerainly gains a lot from being played in a metagame with a lot of combo and other decks that flusterstorm is good against, which I think the online...
The food chain match was certainly unfortunate, and I don't think the matchup is very good, it is one of the combo matchups where flusterstorm is at its worst, and we also have no real ways to...
