Haven't even finished sleeving this thing up and I've made one minor change to the list I initially posted... +1 Academy Rector -1 Starfield of Nyx Rector comes down a turn earlier and is better defensively before I can set up Enduring Ideal, which should be the main goal. Starfield of Nyx...

In Legacy, Pox decks evolved from being built around the namesake card to using it as a secondary tool and lategame bomb against control decks, with Smallpox taking on the role that "Big Pox" had previously filled. Then Liliana of the Veil superceded Pox as a devastating 3-drop. Liliana is more...

Legacy Pox decks have been on a gradual decline since 2013 or 2014 and were never hugely successful anyway, although they did see some success. These days, they almost always run 0 copies of the actual card Pox. The strategy has shifted from putting the opponent on the wrong end of rounding up...

This is a brand new decklist I haven't tested at all, but I'm aiming to try it on Sunday... Commander: 1x Abundance 1x Academy Rector 1x Akroan Horse 1x Arbiter of Knollridge 1x Azorius Signet 1x Bant Panorama 1x Bountiful Promenade 1x Brainstorm 1x Breeding Pool 1x Collective Voyage 1x...

Well then, let's get started. The starting plane is Raven's Run. UUD, roll the planar die (nothing happens), Leechridden Swamp, done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Command Zone: ----------------------------------------------------------------------...

It resolves. Gonna dig up a Plains from the Path. Regent hits Melkor for 6?

Well, I thought something seemed off on Tuesday morning, but I couldn't figure it out at the time. My opening hand isn't nearly dangerous enough. It would seem that on Monday night I sleeved up the Armed deck by mistake! :eek: The Dangerous deck is sitting in the same box on my desk. You want...

LOL I'm guessing you kept your starting hand? Plains, Anointer of Champions, done. Spidey: 20 Hand: 7 Library: 53 Battlefield: Graveyard: Exile: ================================================================================================= Oversoul: 20 Hand: 5 Library: 53 Battlefield...

My 1982 quarter flipped Tails. And I'll keep...

Melkor?

UUD, attack Mooseman with Child of Night and Melkor with Necropolis Regent. Blocks/responses?

Played this one again yesterday and I've got to say that I'm sick of seeing Palinchron loops win every damn game I play. Fine, I exaggerate, Palinchron was only the culprit once this time. In another game it was Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith for infinite mana with Mycosynth Lattice and...

I've played with Pox a lot more than I've played with Nether Void (it helped that because Pox was in Ice Age I was able to pick up copies of the card easily). I'll probably start a Memories thread for Pox at some point. The traditional Pox deck, which I emulated with my own casual decks on...

I noted the Nether Void vs. Pox dichotomy in my previous post, but I don't think that I explained it very well. The printing of Smallpox in 2006 really changed the way most monoblack control decks worked, but let's not gloss over the dozen or so years before that... There's a bit of historical...

Wasn't sure which board to post this on, but I wanted to share a post I came across on The Mana Drain, which I thought was an excellent example of an important point in deckbuilding for any variant of Constructed Magic...

It's narrow.

I remember that when Legacy was new, there was some general sense with a lot of people (myself included) that Nether Void was going to be a big deal in the new format. In hindsight, the idea seems a bit silly. I think I see how we got the wrong idea, though... When Legacy was first shaking up...

Throg attempts to cover the "X" in the top right corner of the board. It doesn't work, and the blue light flickers and turns red. It seems that Throg has failed this elaborate and definitely very difficult puzzle. Three wraiths appear out of nowhere to attack him for this, which really doesn't...

Although older combos seemed more definitive, the advent of the set Nemesis in 2000 would create the greatest prison combo of all time... By themselves, the two cards are temporary, but the ease with which they can be rushed out (both are artifacts) and the way they cut off resources while...

I got an 8.
