- Why did label this as a Control deck? It's Combo-Aggro with minimal control. - Playing 4 clique is to much, 3 is usually better. - 6 Jace is to much. Play 3 Jace the Mind Sculptor and 3 Spell Pierce to protect your combo If you play 3x Intuition and 1x Life from the Loam you can drop 3x Dark Depths and 1x Vampire Hexmage making your deck A LOT better. - Why do you play Glimpse? what about this: 4x Tombstalker 4x Tarmogoyf 3x Vendilion Clique 3x Vampire Hexmage 1x Dark Depths 4x Underground Sea 3x Tropical island 1x Bayou 4x Misty Rainforest 4x Polluted Delta 1x Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth 2x Island 1x Swamp 1x Forest 1x Wasteland 4x Jace, the Mind Sculptor 4x Force of Will 1x Counterspell 3x Spell Pierce 3x Dismember 4x Thoughtseize 3x Intuition 1x Life from the Loam

I think I put glimpse in because I've always been planning a UB mill deck and thought I'd try it a bit with this Makes perfect sense with the changes you've made! Thanks for sorting the mana base, wasn't entirely sure what to run. Thinking about it how badly will the abilities of the tarmogoyfs and tombstalkers clash? With removing the cards from the grave or is it safe to rely on my opponents grave?
chances are they will get in eachothers way. After building you my version I realized I forgot Brainstorm. Maybe drop the tarmogoyfs for 4 brainstorm and drop the one counterspell for a ponder. this will have the effect that you'll build up your graveyard faster for tombstalker and you'll have a lot of control over what you draw and how your deck plays. Mill is something you either go for 100% or you don't. running some mill cards doesn't have a lot of impact on games even if it's to grow your goyfs or create cards to play tombstalkers. Better to play hymn to tourach if you want big goyfs fast or play tombstalker fast.
Yeah I think that's going to be the best option really, I much prefer the tombstalkers to tarmogoyfs anyway. I'm taking out a vendilion clique and a Jace for a pair of hymms
Changes I would make now are - 3 spell pierce + 2 hymn to tourach + 1 Vendilion Clique Clique is extremly important to protect your combo and is a good beatstick, you're really low on creatures so you need those 3 cliques. If you play hymn play 4. Turn 2 Hymn wins games.
Done! Thanks.
This is turning into a fine legacy quality deck, soon you'll be adding a sideboard and taking this to local tournaments :) Do you actually own these cards or do you play this online in a program like Cockatrice? I myself have all these cards so I'm just making suggestions regardless of budget. If you have to buy this deck from scratch it's going to hurt :) Another suggestion: Your landbase should include Volrath's Stronghold (which is hard to get by these days but if you have it...). This gives you the ability to recur Hexmage making your combo a lot harder to break. Drop 1 Island to fit it in
It is! Unfortunately It's pretty much the Jaces and force of wills and the manabase that I need to get. I'm going to see if I can get the rest of cards though and this is definitely the deck I will run at a legacy tournament. And what's cockatrice?
I agree with Setherial, why would you play glimpse ? Also some targeted discard is pretty good
