take a look at into the roil and spell contortion
Permalink
you make an interesting point i forgot about, im not sure if the effect is instant or not anymore, however this would allow me to make a couple changes that would help regardless
Now i sleep, have fun
and i found the solution you were looking for, emerge unscathed lets you save one creature from day of judgement like totem armor, gives you a few uses in actually fighting, and stops spot removal like vines of vastwood would
as far as taking something out and substituting it in really depends on your own playstyle, id probally go for hyena umbra and drop out 1x Lord of Extinction 1x Harmonize 1x Baneslayer or reliquary that call is a bit difficult though.
you dont need to use it as a counter, prevention is always a better counter. and i dont undestand the line where you said "as 1 negate would have done the trick for that DoJ" im looking at 4x 4 creatures that can beat your opponent down single handedly, 1 totem armor does the same thing, either way its your call totem armor is quite versatile and you should try it.
also to counter your probable follow up comment, just use a sideboard and grab what you need after you figure out what your opponent is running.
also counters a single use of doom blade and the like, basically anything that says destroy.
you want to counter day of judgment? totem armor, done.
drop megrim for the rack
may i recommend martial coup?
hunt masters costs too much for the same effect imperious perfect gives (im counting it as the same because im counting in the +1/+1 to even things out) and door of destiny is inferior to joraga warcaller.
oh i believe your elf deck beats mine if were going elf deck vs elf deck, seeing as how your using quite a few cards that count your opponents elf as well, but as far as going against pretty much anything im quite positive mine beats yours.
glance at the sideboard.
excuse me if im not seeing something but i dont see a real use for that scalding tarn or the rainforest, or the catacombs, you would be better off just drawing a normal land of those colors and not losing the 1 life. and you need to remove the leyline of the void, you have many cards that relies on your opponent on having a graveyard yet that removes it.
Nice dude.
not to mention hellkite charger has the same effect minus the fact that it costs a little more.
Well, apparently someones trying to sound smart by saying, hey a counterspell deck will take care of this real fast!
Heres my version of a short-stack burn. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=77021
