While I personally think that both, printing and banning Mental Misstep was a mistake by WotC, this is my goyfless list.

Actually, I think that Misstep is absolutely superior to Daze. Its stronger in the early game and still a hard counter later on. Especially in this deck setting yourself back on land drops sucks as...
For me 19 lands do absolutely not work. I even got screwed too often with 20 lands including 3 basics and 2 Dryad Arbor.
Current mana base that is the best one I had so far:
4 Wooded Foothills...
Limited
its the only other format I actually like. Unfortunately you get loads of crap cards from that...
I don't think Terravore is bad here, I am just not sure whether he can reliably beat KotR. Whenever I face Maverick and they can't lock me out of the game by using Wastelands their first target with...
Yes, indeed I do so. My metagame calls for it. People run GW Maverick, UW Stoneblade, Merfolk and the mirror, where Lavamancer is a good card. He is also quite good against Knight of the Reliquary...

I am quite sure than overloading on artifact removal is not the way to go against UW stoneforge. Most of the lists tend to board out Stoneforge Mystic + their equipment package against us anyway,...
Played in a Legacy tournament today for the first time since quite some months.
Played No RuG.
2-1 Eva Green
1-2 BUG-Still
2-1 BUG-Still
2-1 UGx Aggro-control
2-1 GW Maverick
2-0 GW...
I tested Terravore for some games now and found him pretty good in most matchups. This guy doesn't get jump blocked, beats Knight of the Reliquary every day and last but not least is my favorite...
Having more Lavamancers maindeck is a fine way to keep the merfolk matchup positive. Lavamancer is way more brutal here, as it plays out basically like a mini-Visara, killing of all of their guys if...
Fire/Ice is there because I like a 5th removal / reach spell while it makes my blue count 1 higher in comparison to running 4 bolt + 1 blue card. I feel its good against Hierarch, Mother of runes,...
I am recently trying out running less than 4 Tarmogoyfs as it seems they are not winning for me in that many matchups. At the moment I got the following configuration:
4 Wooded Foothills
4 Misty...
Bw is a lot easier matchup than Junk and in my testing I won it exactly the same way you guys mention above.
BGW is a different animal however. They got KotR and Tarmogoyf, so you basically are...
I have to revise my thoughts on Sylvan Library. Tested it again and it still was underwhelming in quite some matchups, but its worth running as a 1-of maindeck and perhaps even a 2nd one in the...
Found some gems to play for this deck:
Spellskite, Phyrexian Revoker.
I also like Bribery pretty much in this deck. Don't know whether its broken enough, but most EDHs have game ending...
*Something must be wrong with my PC, I ain't dumb and always clicking twice while posting but it makes 2 of them every single time since a few days now...*
I don't think that Daze is a meta choice. People just can't get away from thinking "URG aggro control ->Daze is awesome". But it isn't very good in this deck. And if you get counter backup for your...
Don't board out Natural Order against UW Stoneblade, that's just like boarding out Force of Will against combo. You can definitely win without it, but its one of your best cards in the matchup....
Edit: Why is my PC always double posting now?
How was that Sylvan Library in the maindeck for you? Many people play it, but so far it has been really bad for me. While its a total house in Zoo or Maverick, it seems to suck in this deck most of...
My plan against Merfolk:
-4 Force of Will
-4 Natural Order
-1 Progenitus
-1 Ponder
+1 Grim Lavamancer
+2 Pyroblast
+2 Red Elemental Blast
Run those fucking Red Elemental Blasts and beat that deck. Seriously, to me it ain't broken at all. People just hate losing to combo because if they do, it wasn't even a game and then start...
EDIT:
*Doublepost*
I've been testing Animar, Soul of Elements as a singleton in the board as I found quite some decks running Knight of the Reliquary + a way to deal with Natural Order to be rather problematic matchups...
