This is a sick deck... Ima have to steal it ;) lol


I appreciate it :) a lot of work went into it

Took out Reapers and Whip, added in a land, 3 {Psychic Strike}, and 1 {Jace Memory Adept}

This is a very cool deck how have to found it in FNM level games and why drop the reaper?

Thanks! I haven't taken a build like this to FNM yet, but in playtest, Reaper just didn't fit the curve. It's a good card, but I needed more spot removal. I do love Reaper, but I needed some counter action :p

Gaze of granite has been pretty helpfull in a similar build I have played.

DylanW18

I have considered Gaze. How has it benefited you the most?

I like gaze but I think in a more control style deck maybe use {Extinguish All Hope}

He loves his caryatids too much (which I can't blame him for) lol

I do love my Caryatids lol but I've considered Extinguish, and I think it'll go in post rotation most likely

Helps against those Aggro decks to stabilize saved me against pack rat a couple of times.  With ramping mana it helps I think at least clear a board of hex proof enchantments as well.

Update! I was missing a Kiora for FNM (as in my trade hasn't come in yet :p) and I had an extra {Extinguish All Hope}, so I threw it in


First off, I was never upset to see it in my hand! I loved clearing the board of everything but my Courser!

Secondly, I think I prefer 2 Kiora weirdly. She's really nice to hit, but I think 2 is best

After FNM I packed another Extinguish all hope, and I took out a {Psychic Strike} for it. After playtest my deck seemed SO much stronger. Psychic at 2 was just perfect. I had it when the bombs dropped but my hand wasn't clogged so I wasn't getting multiple in my hand. And Extinguish was just a powerhouse . New MVP of the deck!

Also my SB wasn't done so I borrowed some stuff for the Aggro matchup, and I really loved my new SB. I believe it will stay this way. I'll let you guys know how next FNM works!

I also added my second Underworld into MB and it wrecked. One game I had Memory adept and both Underworlds out and drew 4 cards a turn. Value

I'm in a pickle guys. I really wanna run {Dimir Charm}. Is it good? I was thinking of it replacing {Psychic Strike}. Thoughts?

I think that while the charm has different modes it is just too narrow in its uses. You'd rather be able to counter any spell at all. (Besides uncounterable things...)

DylanW18

I might run it in my SB as a 2of vs Aggro... I'll try it, see how it fairs
