[Deck] Dreadstill - Enter the Fist

[oRen]

I don't know what you mean exactly, but I stopped succeeding when GW started to be played heavily. Green Sun's Zenith made Countertop look silly and you couldn't even Spell Snare their Pridemages anymore. Plus they had lot's of removal.

Tempo plan is good because of Delver. Back in the days you could just save the removal spell for dreadnought. Now there's also Delver who will win the game if not removed. Roodmistah just explained this a few posts above, you should perhaps read the page before asking further questions.

I talk about times when Grip was a relevant factor which was like 2 years ago. The deck got dropped WAY before the printing of Zenith and after the banning of Survival - which means there was close to 0 GW in the format. If GWx would have been generally a problem you would have never been able to play the deck for as long as it is possible to stifle the Dreadnought trigger.

I read the last pages and I can obviously see how Delver can be a decent call to the metagame by being a threat by itself yet it limits you in building the deck in a way I do not like. I can see the old strategy still working with close to no grips and not that much Maverik in the metagame - and therefore I am asking Rood if and why he thinks that this line of building the deck is outdated and not viable anymore.
