C-Euro posted:Because I stole your original list, then saw your updated anti-Delver version It's fun, so thanks for posting it in the first place. I'm glad you're enjoying it, I've gotten way more mileage out of it than I thought I would. Tron is always a rough matchup for me at least, especially RG Tron since they're maindecking Pyroclasm for all the Delver that's running around. You could reasonably drop the Collar and third Skylasher for Dismember for the Oblterator matchup, although you could mull hard for a Rancor and Bow of Nylea since deathtouch and trample is pretty spicy. I'm starting to question the usefulness of Skylasher honestly, it dies to bolt and path all the time and it sucks wasting a vines to save a mostly defensive guy. I've got an Arashi, the Sky Asunder I've been meaning to try out that I might put in one of the Skylasher's place.

jassi007 posted:Ok so last SCG open 4th place delver has 2 volcanics. What are the cons of doing the mana like this? You are going the sad if they wasteland your two duals, which I totally would. You can run it that way but best bet would be investing in the volts sooner or later. But Tc has to be banned pretty soon it's getting out of hand.

But Tc has to be banned pretty soon it's getting out of hand. Understood. I mean if You had the choice of build legacy delver within 2 months, or build it by next summer-ish, the difference being buying 2 volcanics and 4 fow, or waiting to get all 4 volcanics, it seems that its playable to a reasonable percentage with 2. I understand that it is better with 4, but the extra $400ish will be a down the road project. So if they do ban cruise in legacy (I'm convinced a modern ban is coming but not necessarily legacy) is the deck going to get as bad as it will in modern? Modern UR delver was firmly tier 2 before Khans. I think honestly in legacy it may still be reasonable because it will still be fast. Swiftspear is being overlooked as to how much it adds to the deck imo, everyone is cruise this and that. No doubt cruise is super powerful, but UR Delver has also gained a lot of power from swiftspear.

Also, UR delver was still a fine deck before treasure cruise. It just wasn't nearly as powerful.

Assuming that Dig Through Time also gets the axe, I don't see any reason why RUG Delver with Wasteland and Stifle won't go back to being the deck du jour.

What would Legacy look like if they just banned Delver along with Cruise? Just out of nowhere.

Has anyone seen this deck before? WUBRG Aggro just seems so silly, and it isn't even playing tribal flames.

5 color decks are sweet because you get all the best sideboard cards

Caverns is startlingly good in that deck. 27 of those creatures are humans, yeesh.

I love any deck with 4x Ancient Ziggurat in it. Shine the gently caress on, you crazy diamond.

Boco_T posted:Frank Lepore is running the deck in 4 rounds of videos on magic.tcgplayer.com today, if you want to see it in action. That deck is precious and priceless. I do think siding in a couple pieces of noncreature disruption would be sweet tech, especially if the deck becomes known so that people figure out what it is and side out anything that doesn't interact with creatures. Boom! You bring in a couple of Mana Leak/Spell Pierce or what have you.

Boom! You bring in a couple of Mana Leak/Spell Pierce or what have you. That mana base is really terrible and awkward for non-creature spells. Why play Mana Leak over Glen Elendra Archmage? It's essentially a Zoo deck that can't even play Lightning Bolt... you just want to kill them all fast-like with creature damage. You're better off being proactive with your disruption by bringing in the Sin Collectors, or playing Tidehollow Sculler. There is no reason to protect your dudes with blue permission, just learn how to not overextend. Don't get all cutesy with the sideboard, just pack some utility.

Who's sideboarding engineered plague in legacy and for what? It's actually good in a lot of matchups now that I think about it and stops TNN

It crushes merfolk, elves and goblins, wrecks D&T, and kills TNN. It's semi effective against stuff like delver and stoneblade. We had a little tournament today with 10 people. I decided to play RUG Delver instead of Jund. Lost to lands, dredge and smallpox. But I beat Enchantress and Goblins. I prefer Jund any day of the week.

It's actually good in a lot of matchups now that I think about it and stops TNN Depends on the mood I'm in when I'm going to play legacy. I've been using Deed in its spot, but I should probably make room for both. It's insanely good against UR Delver if you drop it on turn 2 and name humans. It's also fine later in the game if you name elemental. It's good but not as good as a lot of people seem to think it is against elves, especially if they have a Reclamation Sage. For Jund, it's good enough for Fish because you can Punish their Lords into oblivion and it keeps garbage like True-Name down. I don't think BUG wants it because they don't have nearly as much removal, so a single lord makes the card basically worthless. Even naming Zombie against Dredge can be pretty good. Plus like you said, it's just always good against True-Name. You can bring it in any time you see one.

So why are people using Rabblemaster instead of Bloodbraid Elf in Jund builds? I don't get it...

I honestly don't know; I'd maybe drop a Lili and my 3rd Elf and use the Goblin with the Elf as a Cascade target, but definitely not instead of it. The only other thing I can think of is it lowers your curve enough that maybe you can go to 22 lands?
