It’s great to hear Sneak Fit is capable of beating the best of the Legacy decks and your write up was a good read.

Like said, my results were mediocre. This has to do with a lot of things, but mostly because I am unexperienced with the deck, I've only played Stompy decks before: Big Red, Soldier Stompy and Dragon Stompy. This resulted in 3 (!) draws on day 1 at the Trial with no breaks between the rounds, which was very exhausting. This is why I also didn’t make notes of my games (something I try to do most of the time).

I was out of luck on Sunday I guess, this time not making big mistakes at all but got blown out instead. But I never lost faith in the deck and love to give it another spin. The deck deserves it and I really feel it makes me become a better player. Besides, I haven’t faced half of the decks that are out there yet.

I will definitely try 2 mainboard Collective Brutality. All 3 days I felt I didn’t have enough MD discard especially against infect.

Ulysse, against what decks do you side in Slaughter Games? Are these not too slow against combo? Do you use them against Miracles as well? I left my copies at home last weekend but now I am undecided. Would love to hear your opinion about that.
Also, don’t we need some untargeted creature removal in Sneak Fit, a la To the Slaughter or Diabolic Edict in the side, just in case Dark Depths happens, or against reanimator?

Another question: How do you feel about Woodland Bellower? Isn't Sidisi or even Diabolic Intend just better overall? Didn't test him yet though.

Many thanks in advance!
Hi Bart!

Thanks for reading my report! Should have stay on Paris to play more :'(

From what I saw from your ending game against my friend playing miracle on friday, you lost a lot of time making each call. Now you said you're new to the deck it makes more sense. I think by becoming more instinctive you will do less draws. For me, sneak fit is mostly a quick version (a lot more than nyx fit which is more a prison deck). I finished all the rounds before time's up. Yes, against miracle it's quite normal, but most of the other match up would end sooner on a normal day. Which is good to go throught a big day as you pointed out. Hang on!! ;)

Yes, I think too that it's good to have more MD discard in it and was happy with those collective brutality until now.

Slaughter game come in against each and every combo deck (storm, show & tell, elf ball, reanimator, alluren, food chain..) because on a good day you can cast it turn 2/3. Even later is good if you managed to delay him with some discard. Less silver bullet to make some room. If you managed to diffuse their bombs, you quite win. Against miracle too since it's often grindy games and steal them some of their tools is good (often the kills).


Yes, I need to find back my to the slaughter. Luckily, I didn't went against Depth ^^ Often my chance to break them is to Emrakul before dying or gain a lethal turn with collective/DRS/thragtusk ^^'

Woodland bellower is quite an all star. Better than Sidissi because greeny and stay on an empty board. And very helpfull with our little toolbox (witness, tracker, reclamation sage or empath depending the situation). MD 1 bellower and 2 empath seemed to be the better balance to me. And I followed master Arianrhod on this ;)
I didn't played tracker for some time but felt good back here.


I'm not a fan of Garruck, but that's me.
