Awww, thanks :) I'm thinking of a white splas for Enlightened Tutor and Pridemage. What do you think?

What is the point of Accorder's Shield? And you have waaaaaaay too few fetches IMO

Thanks a lot! This deck is the result of a lot of hard work.

Although I run Crucible and Smokestack, I still have Manabound. Not 100% set on it, though it can be very big.

I would like to point out the number of man-lands I run. 2. My stratagy is to win g1 off Smokestack/Land disruption, G2 off the back of my 4 Bobs, and if it goes to 3, then I stall out and not finish game 3 (I've played 55 minute games with this deck). I only animate my manland when I need it to ensure I win.

Sensei's Divining Top has been very good to me, giving extra Loams and such.

My problem with Intuition is its not as useful as ET IMO. I have a nice tutor package with ET that I wouldn't have if I used Intuition.

That's bizarre to say the least. Try this deck and replace the Needles with Pyrexian Revokers set to LED. That would piss them off. Or play Fish

Yeah, that would kind of suck. Fortunately, with the ramp I can go off consistently by turn 3-5, and post sb I can simply hold my cards until I set them all off at once. I'll add an anti-hate sb though.

Same question that I put to surewhynot btw.

Hahaha ik right? That's what most of my friends have said. By the way, I've really gotten into combo decks, and I'll be posting some soon. Is there any specific combo you would like to see?

Cool deck. Have you concidered Splinter Twin? I also think Jace would be nice to allow you to run through your deck faster. Also, your kinda screwed if you don't get the combo or the Darksteel, maybe build some more stamina into the deck? A control shell would be good here

You can't beat storm? Exactly what to do depends on your deck, but if you play affinity just bring in Ethersworn. If your Fish, just laugh at them, and if your anyone else run Chalice of the Void

Yea, I've gotten some cash for that kind of stuff too. I never liked Reanimator to be honest.

I've experimented with lands to some degree, and if you want I can post the list. storm is good, but I don't think its the be all end all the way Survival was.

I don't play paper Legacy competitively (I'm 17 and in highschool...) so I play online at Magic League. We have a very diverse Legacy community with some very good players (as in PTQ regulars). I see plenty of TES, which is why you will notice basically every legacy tournament quality deck I have posted runs anti-TES stuff. Also, since this deck is, by its nature, weak vs TES, I figure every little bit helps.

If you want to try this deck out in your meta, then I would replace Duress with Thoughseize, and on the board go:
3x Duress
3x Extirpate
3x Bob
3x Nature's Claim
3x Bitterblossom

I assume you see ThopterTop? I really hate that deck. What do you play btw?

Ohhh... How exactly does that happen though? I mean... you win by T5/6...

If you do happen to see multiple, toss it to Thopter Foundry (another innovation of mine for this deck that is AMAIZNG) or Ravager,

I have been wondering about thoughseize vs Duress for a while but decided that since combo doesn't play creatures and duress requires one more spell by TES, that duress is the better choice. I'm not sure if I want it on the board, but do far the chalices have been amazing.

Nooo way. Why do you even want to drop the mox? Its active t1/t2 every time! Lotus would make it more explosive, but not in a meaningful amount.

To be honest, I've been wanting to revamp Ravager for a while. 3 mox md are amazingly consistant for getting me 3 mana t2. And dropping tezz wins thegame. If you have 4 art lands, drop him, look for a free artifact. Next turn is a 20 life differential. And that's assuming you only have 5 artifacts. You usually have ~10. I'm thinking about 4 of him, but I dunno what to cut

Pretty nice deck. Court would be better than Ardant. Not sure about bonesaw, but maybe. Also, I would throw in 2-3 Elspeth for consistency. Nice work though

Hmmm, that is pretty interesting. No, that is not me, and no I did not rip my list off of that (I never knew about that article before you posted). There are certain differences between our lists, though the concept is the game. You will notice my mana base is noticeably stronger than his is, and that my win-cons are different. I also run a different tutor and some other card are different too.

Hmmm, to be honest I really don't like your list :/ You run cards that are horrible and don't run cards that are amazing.
4x Lotus Petal
4x Tooth of Chiss-Goria
4x Welding Jar
4x Steel Overseer
4x Salvage Titan
4x Phyrexian Walker

Should all come out IMO. Affinity is an aggro deck, don't forget.

Cards I would add:
4 Thoughtcast - Read the card, then look at your decklist. Repeat until you play the card.
4 Arcbound Ravager - Strictly better than Titan. Ravager is the ultimate anti-control card for this deck
2 Darksteel Citidel - Your version of a basic land
3 Etched Champion - Kills the Zoo mu, and gives the middle finger to spot removal. GG when equipped with Cranial.
3 Mox Opal - See Thoughtcast

Ehhh... not really impressed with the deck mate. You left out some great cards: Stythizxnt the Hard to Spell Dragon, Necropede, Plague Myr to name a few. I don't think mono-b is the way to go, I'm toying with the idea of UB evasive, UB control, BG pump, and WB artifacts. I think all of those options have more potential than mono-black does tbh.

Also, since when is Ichorclaw a 3 of in ANY deck?
