    Magic Memories: Tendrils of Agony

    That potentially loses to a sufficiently large power of attacking creatures. The most obvious would be infinite creatures (Sliver Queen + Mana Echoes) or regular number of creatures with an infinite loop to boost power (Quillspike + Devoted Druid). But, given your specifications, it's beatable...

    Magic Memories: Tendrils of Agony

    I already started Memories threads for both Academy Rector and Yawgmoth's Bargain, so when it comes to a Rector-Bargain Tendrils deck, I'm wary of repeating myself. Rector dies and fetches Bargain from the library, Bargain draws a ton of cards, some of those cards make mana, and pretty soon...

    Magic Memories: Tendrils of Agony

    TEPS was a respectable deck in Extended, staying in pretty much the same spot with older sets rotating out, up until Scourge itself rotated out in 2009. That was the last time anyone was able to cast Mind's Desire for free off the back of another Mind's Desire in a sanctioned format. Tendrils of...

    Return to Ravnica Event Decks: Spidey (Creep and Conquer) vs Oversoul (Wrack and Rage)

    Yeah, Tragic Slip would have been great if either of us had ever drawn it. Ultimate Price plays a lot better against opponents that aren't running a bunch of dual-colored creatures. In the previous game I did get some chump blockers and tried to set up for Scavenge, but you kept nuking my...

    Return to Ravnica Event Decks: Spidey (Creep and Conquer) vs Oversoul (Wrack and Rage)

    It's not that Creep and Conquer is inferior or bad, it's that it's a bit soft to early pressure, and Wrack and Ruin is practically an all offense deck. Against other opponents, C&C could have the advantage. But anyway, it's a matter of degree, and without thorough testing I'm guessing. My...

    Thread necromancy! This one's funny. OK, I think it's funny. Probably shouldn't really be surprising, the way things are going. But here you have it... I received an email (can't remember where on the site my email was posted, but I'd guess it's happened a few times, mostly for articles)...

    Tails. I'll sleeve up Rally and Rout. At some point I heard good things about this deck. We'll see if it can deliver...

    Return to Ravnica Event Decks: Spidey (Creep and Conquer) vs Oversoul (Wrack and Rage)

    Good game. I think Creep and Conquer is just a bit too slow to build defenses against a dedicated aggro deck like Wrack and Rage. If we pitted these two against each other more times, C&C would eventually pick up some wins, and could perhaps fare better post-sideboard, but by the time it can...

    Return to Ravnica Event Decks: Spidey (Creep and Conquer) vs Oversoul (Wrack and Rage)

    Don't know what I'll topdeck, but let's just go Untap, upkeep, Brimstone Volley, and see if that kills you (I think it does, but I forget what the exact deck contents are and if you have any possible lines to survive this turn). I didn't exactly miss lethal on my last turn. I was deliberately...

    Magic Memories: Tendrils of Agony

    The 2006 release of Time Spiral was an important development for Storm decks. The most obvious effect was the advent of Empty the Warrens, Grapeshot, and Ignite Memories. But also important was the poor man's LED... Storm deck composition has varied wildly over the past 14 years, and perhaps...
