Quote from: DrainCleaner on September 22, 2013, 05:38:01 PMIt's either all or nothing with that card, if I run it, it better be accompanied by {Duress}. You don't just run a partial discard package. I've debated it, I can't find room for 7 slots.
{Thoughtseize}
Quote from: Closing Time on September 22, 2013, 04:01:11 PMThat's a pretty good point, what about {Sylvan Caryatid}? It essentially fills the same role and feeds our friends mentioned. I want to keep that slot as a mana fixer, and {Elvish Mystic} doesn't quite get there. Although Mystic fit's in the curve really nice. Hmm...
I like this a lot. My only suggestion would be to replace Lay of the Land with Experiment One or Elvish Mystic. More creatures that can be discarded with the Troll or eaten by the Ooze
Quote from: InfinitiveDivinity on October 07, 2013, 01:28:51 AMI love it! It protects itself, filters the deck, and with 9 removal spells it scrys more often than not. I do recommend {underworld connections} due to it being very reliable card draw
Trying out {Reaper of the Wilds}, this card seems nuts!
Quote from: Wackaman9001 on October 07, 2013, 01:33:03 AMMaybe over {Read the Bones} in the sideboard. It's really only there to help race control. I tried main boarding Bones but more often than not it was a dead card. Definitely not bad in the sideboard though.Quote from: InfinitiveDivinity on October 07, 2013, 01:28:51 AMI love it!

Quote from: Bop on November 19, 2013, 06:58:37 PMI'm loving the deck, the past 2 weeks I've been testing a slightly different build for GP Albequerque though. Got over my stubbornness and I'm final running {Thoughtseize}. Pretty sure I want 4 mainboard though.
How'd this work for you? I'm finding myself building toward a similar looking list currently.
Quote from: Atomic99 on November 20, 2013, 09:16:31 AMMainboard Blades work fine, been heavily debating whether or not to swap them out for {Ultimate Price} though. May run Price at the GP. Just looking forward to getting my Lillys and Deathrites signed to be honest =].
Seems to me like the doom blades should be sb. I don't necessarily agree with having to run 7 discard spells to justify using thoughtsieze but to each their own. This deck is pretty sweet looking otherwise.
