This is why your decks die on the vine. Why would you ignore the assistance of 3 members trying to help? I WISH I had the same opportunity as you were given when I started playing...

Pyrte is almost a must for the wincon alone and the double duty as a pseudo egg makes it a lock in my humble opinion...

Late response I know, (forgot my password):
I get the trick/combo and have seen it posted around the bottom end of top 16 GP and tour finishers but almost every one of them carry a secondary wincon, or at the very least a tempo grabber. Yours has nothing left after a simple Jund hand cherry pick.
Cool when it works but seriously vulnerable...?

Fair enough but; Will triggers ONLY with Merrow while Seas allways pays you back...

Deathbridge seems like a "win more" card. By the time you can drop it don't you already dominate the board? I'd probably swap it for a tempo grabber that let you dominate faster rather then dominate more...
Just a thought.

Playtesting showed Mangara superior to Finks

Is it just me or are there others out there that think CoA is total junk? I once ran into a Legacy White Weenie, (admittedly not a very good one), that ran CoA in the main and decided to drop it against my Goblins. I swung for 32 the next turn!

Stop considering Magma right now, its idea/concept is great but it is virtually unplayable in real life!

I play Mono White hatebears and Goblins quite often, (they both kick ass against 70% of decks in the format), and Liliana is a monster against those decks, she needs to be included. You seem to have such a decent understanding of how a card functions within a deck that your statement re Spear vs Decay makes no sense, have you ever taken this deck to a competitive environment? Decay is far superior, its not even a contest! That said; there is no reason you cant play both, there are worse cards in this deck you can dump to make room for both...

Abrupt Decay and Domri in main, (Moat effects kills you). Full set of Deathrite and load up for B-tap on him as it wins games, (Charms and Scullcrack). Have you noticed Experiment One? Oh, and you need Lilliana to handle the hoard decks...

St. Taft alone is worth keeping White in this deck, StP is a must in every Legacy control deck. The number of nasty critters that come at you early in games makes it something you cant live without. You are missing FoW in it tho, another must have for Legacy control...

I hear you.
Another thing about the Revoker that I forgot to mention is that you can swing him in via the Vial as a response to the offending card being played.

I was thinking along the lines of running a Demon deck with 2BB demons, Lake, DR and Heartless Summoning to go with the Temporal Extortion? Sounds like fun.

This is one of those situations where I agree and disagree at the same time!
The Needle certainly appears to be superior but the Revoker is a critter, and in an aggro deck you can not underestimate that. If you draw Revoker early you can drop it and name the effect AND charge with it. If this deck works right, (and/or your opponent dont draw the hate card you are targeting), you dont need the effect but you can always use the 2/1 aggro part of the Revoker.

Yes, Needle is cheaper and in most cases more efficient and harder to remove but in this deck, maybe not....

Thanks for the input tho, I've been wrestling with the same thought.

Maybe add: Experiment One as he can grow pretty quick here, Craterhoof Behemoth for a finisher or a Deathrite Shaman/Tracker's Instincts combo?

This is just annoying as hell. Love it!
How is Temporal Extortion working for you? Do you generally have to have the Lake out to take full advantage??

With the deck designed for the Arbiter to hit the table early that is just too much trouble trying to juggle fetchlands before he comes in and ruins everything for everybody. ;)
