I've found Stifle to be considerably worse than Not of This World. The only relevant thing it counters that Not of This World does not is the -2 ability on Liliana of the Veil, and the only matchup...

I am by no means an expert in the archetype, but I feel as if Past in Flames ought to be played. Here's a rough list:
4x Lotus Petal
4x LED
4x Dark Ritual
4x Cabal Ritual
4x Rite of Flame
4x...
I got 12th in Vestal this weekend with this:
// Lands
1 [MR] Mountain (1)
1 [MM] Plains (3)
1 [CST] Forest (2)
3 [R] Plateau
2 [R] Taiga
1 [R] Savannah
4 [JGC]...
Landstill with Humility, Wrath, and Moat is a bad deck that makes up less than 1% of any given meta. I'd rather lose to that than play Duress which is worse than Inquisition in almost all match ups....
I never actually drew my main deck Deed throughout the tournament except for against Enchantress when the match was already in hand. It blows up moxes but is generally a more powerful effect than EE....
I got 10th at Jupiter Games on 11/13, winning 4x Tundra and 4x Scrubs with this list:
4x Dark Confidant
4x Tarmogoyf
4x Knight of the Reliquary
4x Thoughtseize
4x Hymn to Tourach
2x...
If this tournament is to be run at the lowest K-Value, why would you need decklists?
Though Gerrard's Verdict is worse than Hymn on a power level, it might fit better in this deck. You no longer have to depend on double black in the early game, it can gain you life in aggro matchups,...
Frankly, that looks awful. What is the deck's game plan? Gain tempo with mana disruption and cheap counters and then...play 4 mana spells? This is like putting Jace is Canadian Threshold.
If you are paying 4 mana for a spell, you want to win the game with it. Jace can definitely do this when it sticks, but not as consistently or in as many situations. If you are way behind, Progenitus...
Jace is insanely powerful. If he manages to stick around for a few turns, he dominates the game by himself, allowing you to fateseal your opponent out of the match. The problem is, at 4 mana, what...
I would recommend playing 4 Bobs. Also, what about Kitchen Finks?
What happens when they StP your vexing Sphinx? Autoloss?
In Standard Kithkin, neither Preeminent Captain or Militia's Pride were played. The deck played 25 lands, and spread out, trying to take advantage of Windbrisk Heights. Heights just gets crushed in...
Death and Taxes plays (or has access to) Forgetender and Jitte, plus it plays Stoneforge Mystic. I just don't see any reason in playing tribal WW, you don't gain much at all. Aether Vial, combat...
JItte, Path to Exile, Mutavault, and to a much lesser extent, Figure of Destiny are the only Legacy playable cards in that list. Check out the Death and Taxes forum.
What do you all think is the most effective boarding strategy against Merfolk (in a basic NOBant list)? I've been bringing in 2 Path to Exile, 2 Umezawa's Jitte, and 2 Engineered Explosives, taking...
Survival Variants can be quite difficult to play as well. They implement a toolbox, so you have that decision tree, plus they have entirely different game-plans depending on whether their namesake...
Does anyone know around how much a Russian Goyf would be worth? Anyone ever sell one? I can't find a price anywhere.
I doubt Parcher was questioning whether the subject matter you wrote about is something you thought was true. Instead, he is questioning your motivations for writing such an article in the first...
How the fuck do you define "morally bankrupt"? I tend to think that you have to do something that anyone ever would consider immoral to be morally bankrupt, rather than, say, not write a bad article...
Giant Slug
Frogboy's claim that zoo can't beat combo decks is baseless. I agree that Zoo cannot beat storm and that it would be a waste of board space to try do so. However, with graveyard hate, Ichorid...
I'll be coming with two others. We will try not to fail.
Can I sac a Vampire Hexmage to trigger Highborn's ability if there are no permanents in play which have counters on them?
