I agree with everything Jens said, but I'd say drop to two Bloodghasts instead of three. The deck has a lower kill demand than one that runs, say, Smokestack...So two will do just fine. Not sure if that means you should run three Tidehollows, though I do love that card. It always seems to force your opponent to make bad decisions.

I like this man, it really has been a while since I've seen an elegantly simple disrupt-extraction.

Perfect deck description hahaha

I always debate between Avatar of Woe and Tombstalker when using a list that can run either one (and really, any deck that can run one can run the other). Any reason you went with the demon?

I also have to tip my hat to what might be the only time I've ever seen Urami as a non-joke win-con.

I can only see Liev Schreiber as the one to play Garruk

A guy who not only makes countless budget decks but also helps new players to learn how to build their own decks?

You sir, are a hero of Magic.

This might be one of the only KokoPuff decks I've seen that doesn't use Dragonstorm...So for that I tip my hat. You could also try out the card Rite of Consumption, it cuts your work in half =]

Another person here who loves legacy and EDH! We're like unicorns...Join us.

You'll have to finagle those aspects for sure. Ponder would be the next best thing to use after your playset of Brainstorm.

It's probably one of those things where I've just had bad luck with it, I dunno. Personally, I'd use Dismember. I like the promise of more consistency in place of the *potential* to hit high. I will admit though, I'm bias in both ways towards and against the choices...

I don't quite know why you haven't done this yet either haha. The addition of Young P. helps fill in so many gaps/flaws in previous StifleNought frames...I love it, and expect to see it remain a staple for the deck for a long time.

Never been a fan of Ghastly Demise. It's rarely worked for me when I needed it to.

Welcome back Muchacho. I think my favorite thing about this deck...is NOT the deck, but the sideboard. It's just purdy.

I think the thing I really love above everything else about this deck is the mana curve. It's just gorgeous. Well done man.

D=

I forgot about Shadow of Doubt...

I like it, and would enjoy seeing what it could do to hold back one of my lists =P

I think another thing to look into are the various cards that limit library searching. Aven Mindthingy (can't think of the name right now, bad headache) and that stupid cat that does the same thing.

This is interesting. It's a very stripped down interpretation of an Extraction deck, in fact it's rather stripped down in many styles. I like this though, it makes it very streamlined. The thing I'm not so sure about is the Vial. I don't quite get the point of it in here.

I dunno. I can tell you that he's very similar to Bob, but it's the differences that are so interesting to me. Some decks will do WAY better with Bob, and some, like this, do better with Scriv. I actually have Bob in the SB because sometimes just by the deck I'm playing against the need changes.

So I don't think it's so much a dark horse as it is just a solid card.

Really well actually. I've been using it ever since. Even in my latest design ( http://www.mtgvault.com/surewhynot/decks/i-also-love-him/ ) I put Blood Scriv in and it does the job.

I think it might be for those who fear it. I personally don't fear it. I can't control it, much like I can't control the sun rising and I don't fear that. Sure, dying sucks, but if you accept it for what it is and nothing more, it stops being such a painful idea =]

Some deep shit man =P

I made a Shaharazad deck using it and Panoptic Mirror...

It makes people remarkably angry.

Everyone has the same exact face when they see Souls of the Faultless hit the field.

I haven't the slightest idea why it was banned either. It's really just an ever-so-slightly 'better' version of Fauna Shaman, which is never going to be banned...Seems odd to me.

And while I am and always will be a strong advocate against Skull Clamp's ban, I can see more reasons for its banishment versus SoTF =/

I think if there's anything more fun than abusing the crap out of Skull Clamp, it's Survival of the Fittest.
