Hello @Kirblinxy ! How bad would think it would be to change red to black? Snuff Outs and Agony Warps/Cat Downs for the red target spells and a Thorn for the red Pirate. Drown in Sorrows instead of the red sweepers. Would that be so bad, I wonder?

The real draw of red is those 1 mana removal spells. Sure you have Snuff Out but then all the other black removal is 2 mana, and that costs twice as much as skred! I did play UB teachings just be MH3 came out which shows how that removal suite works if you want to check out that vid.
@TheForesterf
@TheForesterf 7 күн бұрын
Both UR and UB are good, but have different matchup preferences. Black is slightly better against creature combos (due to snuff out) and grave-synergy decks(boujuka and spellbomb). Red plays best sweeper(breath weapon) and arguably more efficient removal package, also is superior sideboard color (pyroblasts and artifact hate).

Walls played poorly on the second game. After playing 2 Axebane, should have transmuted Drift of Phantasms for Drift for Drift for Reaping the Graves returning the 3 Drift (or 2, if 1 copy got countered) to hand and then get set for the next turn. Going for the easy counterable option was definitely a mistake.

Don't like absence of Augurs, they are sooo good and synergistic in deck with brainstorms/ponders/breathweapons/loriens/monarch and most likely the best card in the deck. Also, preordains are not preferred cantrip here, another sorcery speed one, and generally worse then consider/thoughtscour with bs/ponders/terrors.

Thanks! I am by no means a control specialist, so all of these suggestions are probably correct. The deck was straight from Spock, who has played more of this deck than anyone else, so I assumed the changes were done for a reason (I assume for the ponza heavy meta). I think I was just lucky with my matchups like if I played against Kuldotha I would have really wanted Augur. I could see Consider instead of Preordain, really wanted to hold up mana a lot during this league.

Given how you played M1 and M2 to mana screw ur OPs, M4G1 i think you lose cause you weren't paying attention to blow up their sprawl and mana screw them turn 2. M4G2 i think you lose again in a similar situation when you let them untap and don't blow up their utopia again post etherial armor (which doesn't do much w/o them having white mana or lands altogether). Hindsight is 20/20 but i think you noticed these lines yourself and you said so. As an ex boggles player they have notoriously horrendous mana with mainly mono forest mana base but half their enchantments being white.
@Kirblinxy
@Kirblinxy 10 күн бұрын
Yeah, I realise this in the end. In previous decks I am used to having very minimal enchantment hate and you used to need to hit the pay-off enchantments to win. Now that this deck has so many you just need to make them stumble on mana as much as possible at the start and didn't realise this until it was all over. While I played that round bad, really happy with how I recovered in my play in round 6.

I can't think of the last time I lost because of flood but there were 2 games this challenge where I lost to screw and I am running more lands than you.

Love me Tribe, it was one of my first kitchen table decks before pauper was even a thing. And my friends all despised it :P And now Escape Tunnel is a HUGE comeup for this deck! This list is really close to mine but I like to run 4 Delvers 4 Squawks personally. Squawk is good card advantage with Bstorm and Tribe obviously. Delver is a solid alt wincon and good at baiting out removal., or for chip damage which can lower the amount you need to discard for lethal. Delvers are great I mean it's a legacy card. I also really like Dizzy, you can splash 1 mountain and run 1 About Face, so now Dizzy finds either half of the combo or Shadow Rift. That's not the only way to build it ofc but this is how I like it, Dizzy makes it much more consistent. Another fine point, but Ash Barrens allows a turn 2 Tribe off an island start, whereas Lorien takes an extra turn because you fetch a tapland. As for the board I think Obsidian Acolyte is worth consideration if you struggle with black removal. I like 4 Dispel a lot too. Great to see more people playing this deck and hopefully it will start going places with the help of that Tunnel!
@Kirblinxy
@Kirblinxy 8 күн бұрын
Unsure on the delver plan as you don't have too much protection for the delver to try and ride it to victory. I've already changed the deck to take out lorien as it is always just a land. You are never playing 5 to draw 3. Foresterf managed to come second in the challenge this Saturday which is cool. I think they were on Fallaji and Thraben not Hawk. Goes to show that the deck still has legs.
@ubertuna1

​@@Kirblinxy Test em out and see what you think! The idea is not to rely on delver too heavily, but like I said they either work to bait out removal which would otherwise hit your tribe (bad day), get a bit of chip damage (1 delver hit = 17 life = 4 discards lethal vs 5 = you get to hold up logic knot), and in certain matchups like ponza or terrors they can carry pretty well because they come down before your opponent's interaction. And honestly I don't know how you could not want to run Squadron Hawks to insulate your tribes with edicts/blades so heavily played right now. Also great for stalling, and great with bstorm. Squawks are so good. I think you also really want Ash Barrens just to maintain the high island count for turn 1 ponders and still reliably find white sources, plus it's good for rebuying after brainstorm. I don't play on mtgo so no trophies to show, but I've played a LOT of this deck and those are my notes, take em or leave em :)
