The miser Mana Tithe is a 'gotcha' card that comes out once the opponent sees it. Funny how opponents will play around it for the rest of the match once they've seen it once.
Sideboard definitely needs to be smoothed out.
how has your experience without voice of resurgence?
what strategy you feel more consistent? swarm (2 lieges + brimaz + gavony town), exalted (mirran crusader, swords, maybe elspeth) or hybrid?
my list is hybrid and has good results (2 mirran, 2 swords, 1 liege, 1 gavony), but I feel that it takes more turns to win if I chosse only one way, and it is more affected by removals.
Scryb Ranger is the clue that links the whole deck. It carries jitte, stops Delver, makes KotR bigger and attaking, protect nonbasic forests from wastelands, makes dryad arbor a great blocker, doubles MoM protection and gives extra mana. Isn't this enough?
This is my decklist. It uses 4x thoughtseize main and has 23 creatures, plus garruck to extra removal/tokens. Another good option is Elspeth, to make jitte pass over TNN.
