Death and taxes is the reason I still play steely resolve in my sideboard as a 2 off at least. And because I play a rainbow build I also play burn spells and a single Pyroclasm. I just hate so much that deck and the meta at my LGS is at least 3 D&T players. Is really very hard to win againts all their tools.

Yeah, DnT is basically a case of trying to win in the first 3 turns or you probably lose in my experience. It's awkward for sure. Resolve can help, but they do pack Loran and Apparation for it too

Curious as to why against DnT you didn’t Crop Rot for Depths and then cast Hexmage with Urborg?

I have one book available right now called "The Six Cities". The other book I wrote was published as a serialised novel and I have just gotten back the rights for it so I can release it as a paperback+ebook. However it was part of a series, so I might finish the series first.

I actually wrote about this on the new update to my Turbodepths guide I published yesterday. I don't think it's good enough, but I think I should still test it

@@jaredschroeder7555 Pick your poison was just bad for Turbodepths in my testing. The whole thing about our deck is that we care about very little, but the things we do care about, we care about a lot. So our answers have to be reliable at hitting what we need.

How come you stopped using exploration and went back to elvish spirit guide?
@crucible_of_words

An excellent question! I have covered this in my primer and in the discord in more detail, but essentially: I wanted to play the Exploration so we could more reliably hit the 4 mana threshold on turn 2 for Quick Reflexes alongside a combo attempt as well as having Life From the Loam as a good option. However since then, Loam has become a very bad option for us due to prevalence of Surgical Extraction and the Exploration itself gets worse the more you mulligan, whereas Spirit Guide is consistent at what it provides. Also there has been an uptick in Blood Moon decks lately, so the additional green mana from ESG is more valuable.

What do you think about 4 living wish in the main instead of Sylvan scrying?
@crucible_of_words
8 ай бұрын
It's honestly terrible. You run less copies of your combo cards in the main deck so you are less reliable and more often have to go through a two mana wish line than if you have max copies in the main. We also aren't a deck that wants silver bullet creatures, we just want to do our thing as efficiently as possible and stop the things that stop us. The only silver bullet we like is Ouphe, but wishing one turn then dropping it the next turn is soon slow for the match ups you want it

I'm imagining myself in the place of the round one opponent at the end of game one, and the frustration is palpable. I'm getting mad just thinking about that BS happening to me. The odds of drawing the exact two cards needed for the win, is about 4 over 1000. Under half a percent.

To be fair, there are a series of other draws that do the same thing, but I won't turn down a bit of good fortune xD

it didn't matter in the end but round 1 naming bloodstained mire was ineffective due to your urborg. great league regardless!
