Now it still won't deal with Cage, since that is an artifact, but Ingot Chewer can do that.

On that subject, I've got a question for all of you. I've been playing the same main deck that Drew Tunison played at GP DC with 2x Griselbrand and 1x FKZ. I've currently been playing 3x Chain of Vapor in my SB as my anti hate, since I'd rather not dilute the deck anymore than I have to and that card deals with everything short of Surgical. I don't currently play lands or petal in the SB.

So, how do you guys deal with Chalice of the Void on 1?

I can see playing abrupt decay, since that has the additional value of blanking chalice on 2 (I think that is how that works), and I've had Ingot Chewer recommended to me since it is 5 mana on the stack (is that correct?) but is still 1 mana like Wispmare and so it jumps around spell pierce, counterbalance, and chalice, which Chain and Claim do not. Has anyone had success playing abrupt decay + lands/petal in the more combo oriented builds? Or should I look to Ingot Chewer and Wispmare?
Tested lots of games against a friend with the BoM-Loam-List (LotV and Chalice). Just playing postboard-matches, but this is a real beating. Luckily, I rarely see Chalices in tournaments (especially combined with LotV). If, then maybe Chewers may do their dirty work. Especially without additional lands from the board or Petals Decay might be to unreliable to cast.
Yes, Chewer will make it's way through a Chalice on 1 and Decay will not get countered by a Chalice on 2.

Edit: If a slow deck plays Chalice, DDD might also work, but nowadays DDD is rarely an option because most Legacy-Decks aren't "Slow"
