Title: Tymaret the murder king
Post by: Ieatfood7 on September 21, 2015, 11:14:21 AM
Ok so I am maybe brining in {tyramet the murder King}  to stop a bad matchup, but I hate having a SB card against just one deck. What matchups would you want him in your list for?

It is a GY and creature deck, so assume tyramet is at his best.

Note, I say he is at his best, but it is not a combo engine or designed around him. He would be a one of, and just wondering if there are any other matchups (besides lantern) where I would want him.

He's not even that good vs lantern ... They have needle and relics

I'm not scared of relic. Needle is an issue...hmm....that's the problem, any answer I have at all, they have a recurring answer for, given time. I don't want to have to side in 6+ artifact hate spells, trying to get creative. Main board I have no real needle targets, so unless we are top 8 and he knows my list, he will maybe side those out.

I wouldn't want Tymaret in the binder next to my modern deck

Lol. Fair enough. He is great in the one matchup, in my deck. I would hate to use a SB slot for a card I would only bring in against one semi-fringe deck.

Good idea is good. Can even be flashed back if you mill it.

Maybe I am worried to much but in running the matchup through my head, it doesn't look like my 1-3 ancient grudges will be enough. To much redundancy and recursion.

I can up that to 3-4 without hurting other matchups much (I need affinity help anyway) but I feel like there must be a more reliable answer.

This deck is the fringest of fringe decks sure it just won a GP but it's not popular enough to worry about it yet

I bring in {hurkyl's recall} against just one deck all the time. If it shores up a bad matchup that you expect to come up against then it shouldnt matter.
