I have always liked {grey merchant of asphodel} over {mogis's marauder} but that is just me

With {Mogis' Marauder} in you should try to fit in 1 to 2 {rise of the dark realms}

I only run 21 lands in the deck
there really isn't any game where I will have the mana to play that.

And. Pain seer trigger may be suicide! Congrats on top 8 gl on placing out. The scg tournament over here my deck flopped on me in top 8 stoked it did it their and not on the way at least woulda preferred a game where mulligan down to five game one and four game two  both  and I'm still left shaking my head with 0 lands on every draw. Magical cuts this man had.

I top8'd a SCG SuperIQ yesterday.
The deck I ran is a few cards different than this but its a similar build.

I just edited the list to reflect what I ran yesterday.

Did you end up finishing past 5-8 or deck flopped in top 8 ;(

GJ nevertheless!

Post by: Sto5rm on April 06, 2014, 02:50:22 PM
LOL I flopped hard in top 8
I set up my SB to deal with Boros and Control so the mirror was a bit harder post SB
I got it game one but after he got his amazing SB cards in I just got wrecked.

Ah well that's a shame of all matchups you get the worst in top 8. At least you had a sb to get you into top 8. In that situation of a tournament you come out ahead of entry regardless in top 8 ;).

Furthermore, you won game 1 so you either outplayed or since you modified the version better and possibly he didn't you know your variant is superior! Congrats.

I suppose since my trade and familiarity cred on this forum is high my word can be trusted. Though you still have the choice to not take it at face value. I can vouch that storm made top 8. We are irl friends.
