    Re: Enchantress stacks

    Wow. Uhm...I hate to be a negative nally, but I do not see that working out too well. Stax is a traditionally tight deck, what you suggest involves lots of filler.

    try Counterbalance, lol :D

    No, serious. This doesn't belong into this forum.

    /edit: Ah ok, it got moved. Still you need to provide at least some sample decklist so we can give suggestion. Right now this seems like generate-random-card.dec
    The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
    1. Discuss the unbanning of Land Tax Earthcraft.
    2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
    3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
    4. Stifle Standstill.
    5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
    6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
    7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).

    I got incredibly excited, then saw what you threw together.

    As for actually building Enchantress Stax, I feel like WBg would be the way to do it. Although the whole "danger of cool things" comes into effect.

    Let me mull it over my mind grapes and get back to you guys.

    I'm not too sure what you are saying. To improve your communication skills, I recommend doing the following:

    Make use of your shift key when applicable.
    Use the apostrophe.
    Use the period.
    Do not taunt to prove your point.
    Avoid generalized attacks.

    Yeah, I'm a little confused by what you're tying to say here. If you're interested in MWS, gimme a holler PM-wise or on aol.

    Also, I'm fairly certain that Green hurts the colors more than it helps. Wb stax might be sweet, though. Although prolly not better than just straight-up mono-white stax.

    I'll figure out a list in a minute.

    @gosumog

    I will crush you in mws...utterly. Your deck is an absurdly tenuous balance of filler, draw and lock cards. Considering the list of cards that you supplied on the top, you have no idea where to start and left out numerous good cards for an actual lock, in favor of turning creatures sideways.

    Here are some notable omissions:

    Words of wind
    Words of Wilding
    Sylvan library
    Moat
    Seal of Primordium
    Hanna's custody
    Etc Etc

    The biggest problem that your ingenius idea seems to not account for is how incredibly awesome 3sphere and Chalice are in the format and archetype. Both of these cards go against the grain of an enchantress deck because...they remove/hinder your ability to run good one and two mana enchantments. The goal of enchantress is to spew forth a nauseating stream of cheap enchantments to mill through the deck...which coincidentally requires a bunch of enchantments.

    All your deck will do is make a creature big, while being incredibly vulnerable to wasteland, blod moon and other tricks most of the up and coming decks have sort of wisened up to for what? To have some bullshit newbie strategy to turn a big enchanted creature sideways?!!! PUH-LEEZ. Run a combo or something if you want to run enchantress stuff, don't combine two strategies that don't go together well.

    Here is a stax base:

    4 Crucible
    4 Chalice
    4 3sphere
    4 Smoker
    4(at least)Cards that protect you from goblins:Ghostly prison/moat/propaganda/etc etc

    Right there, that is twenty cards. That leaves you with under twenty slots for your scheme. Even if you chopped some down to three, you will get four or five more enchantments?

    If you want to call people out, be prepared to deliver. I play on m-l a fair amount and am always calling for legacy matches and no one replies and I do this every day. Where are you then?

    Pay the community section a visit and post your msn on the mws contacts thread. Guaranteed rape will ensue for your janky enchantress build that you scolded everyone for having a lack of skill/creativity for dismissing as a terrible idea.

    Furthermore, m-l is hardly the culmination of mtg prowess. I played there plenty and read through the trials regularly. The guys that play there are infinitely less creative than anyone here, considering the fact that their 1.x and t2 metas get shaken up all to hell when a new high profile event's decklists get posted on deckcheck.net
