I still really question the value of the MD combo kill, most games just end once you can resolve a Dread Return at all and the number of decks that can just kill you thru' a Sphere of Resistance is pretty slim. Otherwise you're looking at cutting 1 Dread Return, 1 Dread Return target, 1 Shambling Shell and 1 Nether Shadow as the standard for sneaking in another 4 set or getting the blue count to 18. I would rather have Chancellor of the Annex than Gitaxian Probe if it's just a question of the 4 flex slots, getting Gitaxian Probe countered is awful where delaying a Deathrite Shaman is probably the highest value you can ask for from any 1 card. If you want to know why Mindbreak Trap is the only card I listed in my SB, it's to make a point that Force of Will is worse than Unmask vs combo because post-board being able to remove the blue combo creatures is what allows you to play more answers to combo in your 60, go back and re-read what I wrote and it will make sense. Griselbrand is amazing vs Show&Tell.įorce of Will's failure rate is high even at 10%, it may not be as high for you because you're cutting Dredgers for blue cards but you're just trading consistency for your Force of Will for inconsistency in your mulligans. Shit happens.Īll of the black targets are better than the blue targets without question, it's just that the degree to which the black targets are better than the blue targets isn't significant enough to matter over supporting Force of Will because the blue targets are still serviceable enough to combo out with - black targets also have fringe benefits in certain match ups i.e. There were 3 D&T players in the room (on a total of 15), 1 Enchantress and assorted other stuff. I know he has Warping Wail and unfortunately he remembered it too. My dredges whiff again and again the turn I can combo out I only have a DR and no CTs. G3 I have the Unmask again but he doesn't have the RiP. I whiff on just about everything and he kills me the turn before I could combo out. G2, I Unmask his RiP(!) but he beats me the fair way. G2: T2 - Elephant Grass, T3 - Humility, durdle for 15+ turns until he RiPs and Emrakuls and whatnots.

Round 2 - Bye (turns out the guy was a doctor and was on call) That gives me exactly the window I need to combo out. G1, I get him to misjudges his role and make him think he's the beatdown when he isn't. That may change given the potential resurgence of Death and Taxes.Your comment made me lol in light of the day I just had.
