Congrats on the finish Royce! Used to see you continuously finish consistently on MTGO, I hope you do some more streaming with storm variants!
I was surprised and proud to see Storm top 8 the GP,...
I know these are a bit slow but the decks that usually play Hatebears are slow to kill. I think we can afford a number of these in the SB.

Hi all, I've taken Shardless BUG to the invitational and Open at SCG Columbus Origins this weekend, and I'd like to share some thoughts. It was a long weekend and I don't really remember how I won a...
I think Liliana is one of the best cards against Miracles, no matter if they have top or not. Sure, they can float cards on top to affect you. But what exactly can they float to make you lose the...
You'll have have to unfortunately accept the fact that there are many matchups that you cannot beat with this deck, I hope you can accept that fact! I do believe in the invitational meta you'll be...
Played against MUD w/ this deck many times also, not very good results all around. I would leave all the counterspells in, Tombstalkers out. Discard is only mediocre because if you don't capitalize...
seems like another fine list to me. It's basically your read on the meta and how you want to configure your deck to it. If your meta is a ton of combo, don't play Shardless or play Shardless with...
The problem with this deck is that blue limits your options to taking care of permanent based hate. Thalia is a huge beating against any non-creature based Show deck. There's nothing you really can...
Well don't forget Ancestral Visions is banned in Modern. :tongue: I guess we just have different philsophies on deck building and playstyle. I respect your judgment on Ponder, it's obviously a...
Okay I will try that SB option with -2 FoW and +2 Thoughtseize vs Deathblade. I don't know if I would side Night of Sou's Betrayal against only (average) 3 cards in their deck. Especially with 3...
What's the general consensus against Deathblade? Do we want discard or Force? Has anyone had good experience with Forces?
Right now I've been doing
+1 Null Rod
+1 Maelstrom Pulse
+1 Notion...
Hey buddy! It's been a while and I hope all is going well with you lately. You planning to make it down here for Columbus SCG at all next month? Would love to theory-craft/test with you in before...
During my top 8 at SCG Columbus last year with this deck, lost to triple stifle, I was on the draw every time when I didn't know what my opponent was playing. I chose to be on the play when I won a...
It's okay to keep in a few Forces against BUG Delver because you don't have many removal spells and you may need to gain tempo since you're suspending Ancestral Visions. I would not want NoSB unless...
After a week of testing (against BUG Delver and Deathblade vs friends), I've found that BUG Delver is a very favorable matchup and Deathblade is still not where I want to be.
Toxic Deluge does a...
In my testing I've almost never won against a single Hymn to Tourarch (BUG Delver I'm speaking of). Dark Confidant says to mitigate this a bit but I'm almost certain from my testing that it's not a...
Been seeing you a bit more lately on MTGO and I'm a fan of you running these crazy combo deck variations! Congrats for having guts and running them!
I've always thought Burning Wish was pretty...
How would you board against Deathblade decks? Cards I see potential in are Null Rod, Maelstrom Pulse, Notion Thief? Of course Force of Will isn't very good here. But is discard good against...
I think the meta in the US has a lot of combo but the invitational legacy meta features a lot more fair decks. Is there a reason why you didn't play a Scrubland over the Savannah? Better fetchland...
Congrats on your finish on this small tournament Lejay! Anyhow, I was just wondering why you chose this deck in essence over anything else in the format?
I always liked your mentality of...
How needed do you think Fury of the Horde is actually in this deck? It doesn't help with business, it's only really reasonably good with Griselbrand (barring that you have enough life). I'm sure...
Hey emidln, I agree with your points. There are I think pros and cons to every Show and Tell deck in a meta. And I think each should be analyzed before throwing the deck into a meta. I definitely...
The beauty of the deck is that it strictly limits on the number of "business" spells for a 3-card combo deck. Enter the Infinite / Omniscience obviously isn't castable. Dream Halls is clunky to cast,...
Congrats, if you want more grave hate I think the best card is probably Grafdigger's Cage since it improves your Elves matchup as well.
Finding out that Massacre is much much better than Dread of Night in the meta at the moment due to the numerous numbers of UWR Delver. Since Dread of Night still doesn't kill Canoist and Vial-ing in...
