Just a quick question about the Pale Recluse vs Architects of Will Everyone seems to be using pale recluse, seems like the cycling on architects is much more mana friendly, are people using recluse because of the better body or forest/plain cycling?
I think I would rather have Jund Charm just for the instant clause vs affinity (man lands) also doubles up as a graveyard remover in case of the mirror!
I've caught interest in this deck! Like the lab maniac side seems a good solution to win if they somehow extract emmy. What about the other SB slots? Explanations ?
Let's say I have a deathrite shaman in play, my opponent has one creature in his GY and casts exhume. I use the shaman's ability to remove his creature, he then responds by stifle. What happens? I know I don't get the 2 life but is the creature removed anyway since it's part of the cost?
Just a few highlights from a recent tourney in which I played... decklist coming later as I have no time right now
Spectral flight: Awesome card with Geist, good with trolls but not awesome play it but no more than 2 as it's been dead sometimes
Mana dorks : Play 4 hierarchs they're just plain awesome. But I suggest to only play 2 Birds since theyre horrible draw late game and get stuck in ur hand if u draw more than one. 6 mana dorks should do fine with this deck
Ajani caller : ALL-STAR, not one game i was dissapointed when drawing one. Seriously, I'm a fan of elspeth myself but this guy fits the deck more. Comes one turn earlier which is relevant, turns your mana dorks into permanent threats, has same loyalty and has an ult that actually WINS the game... I won 2 games where i got to ult after getting board wiped, this guy is awesome play 3-4 always
SB = Torpor orb : Kitchen finks, resto angel, clique, snapcaster, splinter twin, pod you name it. This card has been awesome the whole tournament hoses a lot of cards in the meta and doesn't hurt the deck even a little. Always have 3-4 in your SB!
Decklist and more infos coming later if I have time!
Anyone tried squeezing 1-2 equipments with 1-2 steelshaper's gift in the non-lynx with scepter version? I was thinking maybe pike or basilisk collar since they're cheap to cast/use and can flip the creature war? I also hate playing lynxes!
Gy hate, surgical? How does that help me? Excuse me I'm not so familiar with storm it's pretty much the only archetype i've never played in any format any tips and explanation would be greatly appreciated
Started building this deck recently. Very confident against midrange and agressive decks but what about storm? seems like a scary matchup. What would you recommend for sideboarding? I thought kor firewalker to gain life through their storm, any other cards worth considering?
