curie--tamyio

That's a large event top 8! 226 players.

Curie + Tamiyo instead of Thrull + Nulldrifter, otherwise the same UW shell.

Also interesting to see what else made top 8:
4x UBx Force of Frog (fair card is fair)
2x colorless Fleshraker decks (Eldrazi, Mystic Forge)
1x Cradle Control (8 Reclaimer + Nantuko)

Post MH3 meta.

4x counter target Eldrazi/Bauble

8Stifle+Parallax Tide is hilarious tech
Exile 5 lands, upkeep Stifle, go.

Damn, that is such a cool list. Its awesome that its monoblue.

I see every reason to cut an Island for an Otawara, Soaring City.


I would also want to play 2 maindeck Harbinger of the Seas to maximize the synergy with Parrallax Tide. Not sure what to cut to make room. I also really want to add atleast 1 Tamiyo

-1 Island
+1 Otawara, Soaring City
-1 Wasteland/Ancient Tomb
-1 Dress Down/Daze
-1 Dreadnought
+1/2 Tamiyo
+1/2 Harbinger of the Seas
+0/1 Brazen Borrower

BUG Dreadnought tech: https://www.mtgtop8.com/event?e=59246&d=643828&f=LE

Back on Uro and no Thrulls, so there are no threats that can be stolen/Reanimated. Uro's also great against all the Thoughtseize decks.

Black is just for Fatal Push & SB Sudden Edict, Toxic Deluge, Opposition Agent. Those seem worse than white for Swords to Plowshares, Prismatic Ending and SB Wrath of the Skies. Maybe black is to bluff that they're a Frog deck, so opponent misboards. Pyroblast and Fatal Push are a lot worse against Uro than Frog!

[Captain Hammer]

Black is only worth splashing for Thoughseize as a way to clear the path for your Dreadnought. But I vastly prefer UW and UWg lists with a light green splash for Uro.

Here is the list that Im having success with right now…

4 Wasteland
4 Flooded Strand
4 Misty Rainforest
3 Tundra
2 Island
1 Plains
1 Meticulous Archive
1 Sink into Stupor

1 Brazen Borrower
3 Doorkeeper Thrull
4 Phyrexian Dreadnought
4 Nulldrifter

4 Brainstorm
4 Daze
4 Dress Down
4 FoW
4 Ponder
4 Stifle
4 Swords to Plowshare
1 Cosign to Memory

Consign is very useful in the current meta where as Doorkeeper Thrull while relevant against several matchups is never a card that I want to see 2 copies of and doesnt even pitch to Force.
