Dood, if a single DRS activation per turn is threatening for your life total or enough to stop you from getting T.hold during your first, say 4 turns, I would question your playstyle and skill.

I made a bold Statement because the issue is pretty easy to solve. Take a look at my fucking reports in my sig to see how irrelevant DRS against storm are and save your "but, but, but you have no idea!" crap.

Terror does pretty much the same against Emrakul or Griselbrand that DRS does to storm.
You've wasted a nice chance that I'll ever read your reports just by the fact that you act like a jilted lover.

If you always meet idiots that can't play DRS correctly and simultaneously give you all the time you need and their only discard is Persecute Artist, than I really question where (and whom) exactly you play. Must be those tournamets that start at 1:00 pm during the pause between Gymnastics and Music and singing. In real life, there's that thing called variance and not every time you have a perfect hand (or the ability to sculpt your hand for X turns to get and keep the double Tutor AND acceleration AND maybe even protection). Sometimes (while not always) you don't have the luxury to just laugh at it, sometimes they just defeat you with the said shaman.

I can also win through DRS, I can win through anything, even foil Trinisphere and Mind Twist on turn0. But saying that DRS does nothing is stupid, because that creature has words written all over it, so it must do something, unless it's a flavor text.

I seriously question if my friend wasn't right about all the net forums. "I don't join any of them, and even if I do, I hardly ever write or ask anything. All the people act like they're Superman and Obama combined: their hands auto-mull to eleven cards, their FoWs come glued to Ancestrals, and their penises are double the size of yours, no matter that you're native Uganda-born."

I'm done with you and I simply don't care of your other blathering how you're the best planeswalker ever.

Even just naturally drawing the Tendrils when you're on the LED plan makes a lone Deathrite or Nihil Spellbomb really awkward. Burning Wish, while clunky, gets around that.
How come? DRS can't do any harm, read what Teh Master has to say about it. You just do something something while they just stare, then do that and that and then in response [drumroll] you pull the rabbit out of silk hat and Chaos Orb their elf.
