Also since we run so few creatures, Pierce could protect them better than a Spell Snare can. I know Spell Pierce can't counter a Goyf, which could be a problem, but maybe it could make most of the matchups in the meta a bit more solid.
    I believe I actually remember seeing several decks with a 2/2 split on deckcheck.net in the main occasionally when Zendikar first came out, but that doesn't really appear to be the case anymore. However, spell pierce has almost effectively replaced K-Grips in the board which is nice. Spell Pierce is cheaper and does way more for you.

    Also, on a side note, the 50 best decks in Legacy article I believe sold us short. I always thought that Tempo Thresh had a fairly even matchup with countertop but evidently I'm mistaken. I suppose they may have been talking about the Natural Order/Progenitus lists. How can we sideboard effectively against that?

    Here's the article (even though it's already in the Formats & Articles Discussion section):
