Not only have I been out of the loop for the last year or so my old BUG Threshold deck is even more out of date. Looking at the deck now I decided to cut Green completely and simply go Dimir. I...
I played this last night at my LGS and it did pretty dang well. Here's what I was playing:
//TAIGA BEAT: 60
//BEATZ & BULLETS: 21
4x Titania, Protector of Argoth
4x Minsc & Boo, Timeless...
I think we decided that Wasteland was also not that great with Root Maze.
I've been goldfishing with Ouphe and as a "2 of" he seems pretty good. As Zoid was pointing out I had several draws...
Good call. Birds aren't that great. Sometimes I lose sight of the big picture. With Mox we get those strong turn one Thalias, Suppression Fields and Leonin Arbiters. We do still have turn one...
I haven't forgotten about this deck and my local scene started doing Legacy tournaments again. I was going to play my latest Red Green Stuff build and report back but I missed it and now I have...
Good advice!
I made some main deck changes, and I think for the better.
I cut Kogla, the Titan Ape for Craterhoof Behemoth. This helped me win several matches instantly when I was play testing...
I haven't updated the sideboard from my old post but was thinking Cankerbloom for sure.
Force of Vigor and Torpor Orb seems really good. Probably cut Hull Breach.
Maybe something like this:
...
Haven't posted on this thread in over a year.
I updated my old deck list and smashed Maverick, Lands and Painter today. The new build is explosive!! It's so much faster. Out are the slow late...
Had a busy weekend, so just now responding.
@FTW: Good point on Hexdrinker. We could give Tarmogoyf a shot as you said. Who cares if he isn't a 6/7, a 4/5 for 2 mana is really good and that...
Any of those three is probably really good. I like Knight of Autumn. Always forget about that one. Maybe on the side or even in place of Skyclave main since they share a similar removal ability. ...
I'm not a huge fan of Spirit of Labyrinth. Seems like the matchups where he'd be good we're already good against. He's terrible as a beatstick.
2-3 Questing Beast seems not shitty here at all....
I'm wondering if Winter Orb in the sb might be better for the Lands match-up than Armageddon. It is easier to cast and with Root Maze, Suppression Field, and Leonin main deck it's absolutely gnarly....
Your list is looking tight! I've always really liked Suppression Field with Root Maze. I'm thinking your list is looking a bit better than mine. Leonin Arbiter with Root Maze plus Suppression...
I think you're right. I'm really liking Endurance in this slot for stopping Delvers, stalling Murktide and being a sizable body. He's also good against a bunch of other decks too. He's probably...
Yes, that it is. Thank you! I think Armageddon is still probably better but I like it's synergy with creatures that tax and especially with Root Maze. All by itself it's a bad Winter Orb, but it...
Very good advice! Thank you.
I won't be testing online, but I should be playing a proxy version in paper next week against a friend of mine. I hate playing online. I will let you know how it...
On second thought you might be right with Containment Priest. Maybe main deck and in the Thalia Cathar slot. I freaking hate playing online, but I did play two games yesterday. Game one was...
Deafening Silence maybe in the sideboard for the combo match-ups but it seems like we're already fairly good against most of those. Root Maze and or Thalia/Amethyst should, in theory, limit most...
I'm going to test this deck out with the following tweaks.
-1x Thalia, Heretic Cathar
-3x Trinisphere
+4x Thorn of Amethyst
-4x Brushland
+4x Horizon Canopy
Oh that's too funny. I meant to call this deck Root Maze Taxes but had just been reading the Parfait thread and just randomly typed what was fresh in my mind.
Yes, Horizon Canopy should be...
This deck is a dirty monster. I haven't tested it yet but it goldfishes like a champ.
The deck is all-in mana denial boasting 28 main deck mana denial slots. There is zero removal. We're...
@Mr Safety: Yes, closing out games fast is the goal! Trying to find something to add more pressure.
Played 11 games against 8-Cast with a list similar to the above one accept I was running an...
I did play the above list yesterday but with 2x Tombstalkers and 1x Fracture and did really well. I played 7 games against Izzet Delver and went 5-2. That's pretty dang good. I knew this deck was...
Thanks Mr. Safety! I'm in agreement with you. Took me a while to get back to this thread. Sorry about that. I will actually get a chance to play this again on Friday.
I really like your...
Thanks for the response FTW! You're feedback is always appreciated!
You are correct about Vindicate not being the powerhouse it used to be. I do think that Gerrard's Verdict is really what...
