So...May I ask, why Rogues? Don't get me wrong, they're great and versatile, but I'm just curious why that was what you chose. Also, I'm glad you're going forward with making your own unique decks. I think you have the skill and know-how to do it, so I'm looking forward to seeing them. =]

Hey thanks. I'm going to see what Mirrodin Besieged has to offer and then might make a tourney deck. So you may see a tournament deck from me after all. =] Glad you like it man. Hey, how come I haven't seen any Stompy decks from you since your one you built for my challenge? You had a knack for it.
Dash Hopes is more geared towards Tempo than Counterspell. Yeah, they can choose that 5 life, but what I've often found is when they think they can afford the 5 life...they can't and when they think they can get by without the card I countered...they can't! XD As for speed issues, Merfolk and Goblins are sometimes a pain, but I can Sideboard against them pretty easy. Pretty much everything else is a cakewalk. Glad you like it =]
I read this as "TRIBAL creatureless", and was quite confused at first.
I haven't had much trouble in legacy with using fae...maybe it's just what's played around my area or something, but both this and my other Tempo deck are undefeated (save for a few games where I need to Sideboard). I like the sound of Faetop haha. As already said, Tempo and Countertop is just cruel. =]
Well of course, you said you'd be a Boros king...which is like a barbarian with a crown =P
A king huh? Sweet.
Ravenous Trap. Just wait for him to dump a whole bunch of stuff into his graveyard, and BAM! take a crap on his deck with a 0 cost instant trap! =] That's how I got my buddy to quit using his [god damn] dredge deck. =P
Nothing is more hilarious than watching someone cast Devastating Summons and then having their Bushwhacker countered! The look on their face is priceless! XD There's a right deck for DS, but this is not it.
Good. I'm glad to see it's working as I thought it would =] Turn 3 Titan is frickin' funny man.
Yeah, they're the first thing I looked at when making my Eldrazi Stomp, since the second I saw them I thought, "Alright...we can make this work" =] And to address NightAngel, yeah...this will be my last for a very long time...probably a year or more. Currently I'm working on a Suicide Black/Tempo/Sacrifce deck (Which I will call Memento Mori). It's a difficult jig-saw puzzle that I still haven't fully figured out yet...
Take out Rusted Relic for Golem Foundry. Other than that, I'd try to add in Etherium Sculptors for speed...that's about it though. Hope that helps! =]
Not bad. I would take out the Enclave Crytologist, you only have the one, and it won't do much for you. I'd also take out the Keening Stones. They look powerful on paper, but honestly, in a mill deck...they're just overcosted overkill. =/ Otherwise very nice.
This deck is first and formost a Tempo deck. The Countertop Braids is just a..."side dish". I may try to shift to having 3 tops and 3 counterbalance, as that may help to improve on the flow of the deck, and make the "side dish" into just another brutal part of the deck. Most decks that can fight against a Tempo deck run heavy in the low mana costs, and most commonly 2 mana costing cards. With 20 cards in the deck (1/3rd the deck), Countertop will stop that cold. I'm going to keep Braids at just 2, since she is mostly for those higher cost cards that I let slip by....which aren't much of a worry anyway. As for Research the Deep, it often didn't work very well with how many low-cost cards this deck has, but it is a good idea all the same =] Now, with Vendillion Clique, I must say that is an excellent idea! =] I tried it out (just a quick switch-out) and the resulting flustered look of my opponent (after I put the one card he needed on the bottom of his library) was just what I was looking for!
I am indeed a fan =] Happy New Year to you too man! =] Alright, I have a few questions for ya. 1) A while back one of my buddies argued that Timbermaw Larva is not a Stompy card because he is initially a 2/2 for 4 mana, and he does make a decent point. I said it was, because in a Stompy deck, the first turn it can attack it will be boosted up to a 6/6 to a 9/9! And it can only get stronger from there! So my first question to you is...what do you honestly think? 2) In MTG, metaphorically we are all Planeswalkers. So, my second question is...what type of mage would you consider yourself, and from what plane would you consider you call home/most often visit? 3) What do you think is your...best/favorite deck? 4) Mind checking out my latest deck? (shameless advertising I know...) Oh, and my favorite card, bar none, is Bloodghast. God damn is that card great. =] Congratz on 40! =}
You have an affinity deck that runs Blue mana, yet you don't have either Master of Etherium (must have) and/or Etherium Sculptor (great accelerator)...Son, I am disappoint. =[
Cool idea and great flavor, love it. =]
God damn that sacrifice deck spam has got to stop...-_-
Hmmm....I see a good deal of control, but my worry is that you don't have enough win conditions, or more specifically, not substantial enough ones. Yes, Jace will eventually let you win, but the time it will take to do that might wear-out your control aspects. Lighthouse is always great, but again, isn't REALLY a win condition...in fact, he often will draw so much hate, that it'll end up costing you (much like if someone plays Luminarch Ascension). I would try to work in some more solid win conditions, and then work from there. Sorry it took so long to comment, the damn link wouldn't work... Hope I helped! =]
Ok, now it's working. I'll take a look at it
