Dies to Removal

Holy shit, you're back!

Interesting. Bump in the Night is better than Lava Spike if playing black, no?

Super Sunday? You can still enjoy the rest of the GP.

We're all pulling for you buddy.

I've found it beneficial to not play for a few days before a big event. Just my $0.02.

That list looks very good. But hey, it's PSully. You should probably think about that list Blaklanner. Also advise not playing magic tomorrow of Friday if the GP is Saturday.

Guess it's meta dependant, but the last legacy tournament I played in, that would not have turned out well.

I think you guys are nuts for playing rift with eidolon.

Not sure of that's an insult or a compliment


Live dangerously and play both

Take 6 to deal 4? No thanks lol.

@ Calamity, those open slots could be ensnaring bridge, mindbreak trap or vexing shusher.

I think you guys are nuts for playing rift with eidolon. Other than that, looks good. Looks a lot like a list I wrote for an article I'm waiting to have published lol.

That was me that commented on the vid.

I enjoyed watching the daily, but ma did you every have bad luck.

Dust yourself off and get back on the horse.

I like the look of your list KS.

I drew two fireblasts

#firstworldredmageproblems

I will add it to the list. It is the only way to be sure.

I run two in any fetchless deck.

Your life total doesn't matter, remember? lol

Not hard to get threshold with no Lava man. You're not hurting yourself with fetches. The first time you use that land to finish an opponent, you'll thank me.

This would be what you suggest then?

4 Lightning Bolt
4 Rift Bolt
4 Chain Lightning

IT is

AND they look fabulous.

I have 4 penises, and they go upstairs for 3.

The burn i use is full foil and full promos (of cards that can have either option)

)))

Me too, with textless lightning bolts.

guess I'm a pussy.

Really not a fan or Flame Rift + Eidolon, whereas I am a fan of Eidolon + Hellspark. Maybe just personal preference.

I've found hellspark to be really good. You generally don't want to let DRS live anyway.

I'm all jacked up on mountain dew!

Are you a wizard?

Dafuq KS, ninja'd.

I like Vickie Vallencourt and she showed me her boobies and I like them too!

Ok, so here are my notes from the tournament:

I saw (Sorry if names are wrong):

5x UWR Stoneblade
1x Junk Stoneblade
1x BW Stoneblade
3x U/X Merfolk
1x RUG Delver
1x BUG Delver
1x Goblins
1x Affinity
1x High Tide
1x UB Reanimator
1x Mono Black Depths Combo
1x UR Sneak and Show
1x GB Dredge
1x URB Storm
1x Mono Black Pox
1x Mono Blue Counter Balance
1x UWR Miracles

I played:

Round 1: Merfolk

Lose Game 1 because I have all lava spikes and no way to interact with his jitte. I also flooded to six.

Lose Game 2 Because he had 3x True Name Nemesis and counters for both my smash to smithereens that were pointed at his jitte.

0-1-0

Round 2: RUG Delver

He flooded G1, and screwed
G2. I had T4 kill G1, T3 G2.

1-1-0

Round 3: Junk Stoneblade

G1 he keeps a slow hand and I have a T4 kill.

G2 I have 2x Vortex. He abrupt decays one and I play the second. We race burn vs goyfs on a shortened clock. He tries to swords his goyf in response to my last burn spell, but uh... there's a vortex in play. I end the game at 5 life.

2-1-0

Round 4: UWR Stoneblade

Lose Game 1. Not enough creature kill and Mystic puts the T3 Batterskull into play.

Win Game 2 because he had a slow hand and stuck on mana.

Lose game three because no answer to stoneforge and smash to smithereens gets countered twice and sulfuric vortex gets force of will'd. .

2-2-0

Round 5: Merfolk

Lose Game 1
because he has six counterspells and just counters everything while I mana screw and he beats down with jitte equipped TNN.

Win game 2 on a mull to six because his keep was greedy and his hand never developed.

Win Game 3 off GG > KM > KM> burn. He didn't find his jitte.

3-2-0 for 9th.

Sorry it too me so long to write these.

I've always thought of fire as neutral.

I just did what I do best. I took your little plan and I set it on fire.

Look what I did to this game with a few lightning bolts and a couple of goblins.

Hmmm? You know... You know what I've noticed? Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying!

If, tomorrow, I tell every magic player that, like,your opponent who is tapped out is still going to counter two of your spells, or like your opponent will kill you before you get to play a land, nobody panics, because it's all "part of the plan".

But when I say that I'm going to cast a bunch of 1cc Burn spells, well then everyone loses their minds!

Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I'm an agent of chaos. Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? It's fair!

I draw less than seven burn spells, you live.

If
you don't have lifegain, you die.

Now we're talking.

All my loses in my last event were to jitte or batterskull.

Does Psully just not play against decks with life gain? Lol

Have to wait a month for the next legacy tournament.

Hellspark was consistently good.

Finished 9th, just outside the money.

Played Merfolk (0-2), RUG Delver (2-0), Junk Stoneblade (2-0), USA Stoneblade (1-2), Merfolk (2-0).

All loses were to Jitte or Batterskull. Flame Rift continued to be dead in hand often and Skullcrack probably could have stole me at least one game.

UWR Delver and Merfolk were the most popular decks in the room, and I think I saw half the true name nemesises they printed in this event.

Will try to post meta breakdown and more notes tomorrow.

I am also curious to try eidolon of the great revel in Kelton Marauder's place. Kelton Marauder was on, but not exciting. I think it was better than YP $ would have been.

Thanks everyone who gave ideas and feedback.

After some testing, I think I prefer KM to YP$.

Is Ash Zealot worth considering? Is Snapcaster seeing play?

Not out yet.

Thoughts on Keldon Marauder?
