Hmmm, I always saw Sea Gate Oracle as purely a control card, whereas Jhessian Thief looks like a solid tem- uh, disruptive aggro-control guy. Tandem Lookout would actually be the slot I'd look to swap out when considering another Ophidian, but I love the Lookout way too much for the time being...

that was a thing in standard back when mono white weenie needed a way to attack past Malakir Bloodwitches! also Gargoyle Castle

what is MRW men's rights... women?

Couldn't get him to sign up here, but got his opinions: ======================================== Outpost Siege: I originally put it in my deck to for sacrifice shenanigans, but I found that it wasn't that kind of deck. I only resolved it against one opponent in Dragons mode, so I can't say...

I think it can be sometimes correct as a sideboard option, depending on the matchup, but I agree that maindecking it while running ~17 creatures wouldn't be my first choice. But then again, this deck won a lot more than mine on the evening, so what do I know!

You guys have convinced me - he wasn't on my radar at all, but I'm going to give Honored Hierarch a whirl, too. I'm mostly convinced by the fact that Stromkirk Noble is boss, and renown isn't too different from his mechanic, other than having a lower ceiling. I know green isn't red, and isn't...

That wasn't my deck - but I agree it was sweet. Let me see if I can harangue the pilot to sign up here and speak to those himself!

Relic Seeker Anyone try this guy? How do people feel about renown in cube?

I think you sold me on least three different cards with your enthusiasm!

I tried running that when I was trying to support GB Loam, and I'm afraid it's very, very low power level. Consider that it was printed in Modern Masters, and wasn't viable at all (though there were a number of problems with the dredge archetype in that format, in general). Five mana these days...

I've found what I like most about white is its low cost token generation, especially at instant speed, but I think even that could be approximated in other colours. I wouldn't really miss the two hundred variations on Savannah Lions, as most other colours have a couple of those that could be...

I've actually thought about that question multiple times, and I think it makes sense the smaller your playgroup is. When you have fewer drafters fighting over colours, there are good reasons to reduce the number of total colours and make sure people are overlapping and interacting during the...

I've used Deprive on an off over the years. It's a hard counter that sometimes gets stuck in my hand, with me staring at it missing land drop after land drop, thinking it's just about the worst card in Magic; other times, I've thrown in another marginal counterspell in its place, drawn that, and...

The best part about Return to Kazandu is that it's an (almost) strictly better version of this guy, who was fringe playable in standard. Grazing Gladehart Return plays well with both a land theme and an enchantment theme!

I'm really excited about the mechanic awaken. Like kicker, it seems like both an excellent way to mitigate flood, as well as something that encourages people to run more lands, which they should probably be doing in the first place. Having a late game option to convert one of your lands into a...

Is your most recent list up anywhere, Dom? Also, how many game wins came via Tutelage

Yup, I was pretty happy with him when I ran two for a while there. I don't remember why I cut back down to one... maybe I need to fix that!
