I can't believe I said that... I was obviously tired!

I don't run Contamination MD, I have 2 in SB. I think it is good against random non-black decks, and you know there are a lot of random decks in legacy! Like I said, Oppression makes you win against MU that are already easily winnable. I don't see a High Tide deck getting through 4 Duress, 4 Hymn, 8 Poxes, 4 Sinkhole...

You were absolutely right about the top. After a few playtests I can say that it is AWESOME. I play 2 of them.

I play 3 Smokestack as well, with 3 Crucible and 3 Nether Spirit to support it. It is very strong. In all the games I played it was an autowin card.
