Oh believe me, I know. :P
My friend plays hivemind, actually. And he was my only loss so far. : (
he cast show and tell, sneaked in emrakul, and I was lucky enough to have a blazing archon in hand, so i just set mine out. I was waiting for a reanimate spell to get my inkwell, and just island walk over him, but he got the monolith, set down hive mind... blehhhhhh.

But I'm prepared for it now, so no shinnanigans next time. :P

I'd say Iona and jin gitaxis.
if I get iona online first, stops their hive minds, intuitions, show and tells... then their pacts are useless.
but if a jin gitaxis resolves early, it hurts them bigggg time.

I'm actually putting jin back in, where my matchup with hive mind is so bad, jin could really help me out.

also, I like daze a lottt vs hive mind. counter my copy of pact, choose to not pay, lol.

and thanks sure! ^.^ I do like extraction, it's just not my forte. D:

So today, I played hive mind for the first time with this deck. It was the deck's only loss so far. And then I went to an m12 prerelease.... and thought "Wow, sun dial of the infinite, who'd want to end their turn.... OH MY GOD"

They can play pacts all they want, but I'll end my turn on my untap, without ever hitting my upkeep to pay for the pact, so it'll fizzle :'D

You reallly should give credit to the guy who actually thought this up. I know for a fact you did not.

Nothing wrong with posting the deck online, but at least credit the creator.

Haven't really tried them yet. I was just looking for some way of redirecting any "exile target graveyard" effects.

I will, (:
If somebody asked me what style of player I am, I don't even know how I'd respond, lol. "Well... I'm an aggressive control player, if you will. I counter your stuff and play bombs t2."

But how do you like the sideboard? : O

I may just put in the sphinx, just in case. also, I realllly dislike jin, so I'm looking for a replacement, lol.

How do you guys like the sideboard? I threw it together quickly, but online it seemed to work out. I found I never really needed it, being so fast. But it helped sometimes. (:

So far, I'm 8-0. lol

I have gained soooo much respect for you guys. After seeing the name, I was all.... "CHIODOS??? NO WAY!" One of my favorite bands, no doubt.

Respect earned, guys. And as always, a beautiful deck. (:

I'd classify myself as a control player, but a very aggressive control player. once I have board control, I just send my guys into the red zone, and pile more pressure.

so yeah, I'll take out gin jitaxis. but who's snaggle tooth? lol
and do you mean sphinx of the steel wind? :O

also, are there any beat sticks with lifelink? in some matchups, I feel as though i need life more than anything.

andddd another thing, creatures with shroud; can i target them with animate dead?
it targets them in the graveyard, where i dont think their shroud applies, but then when they're "reincarnated" would animate fizzle? I wasn't sure. lol

I really dislike jin gitaxis. for multiple reasons;
he takes a full turn for his effect to really hit them hard. yeah, his effect is good, but when compared to just a beatdown with shroud, or making a color of their deck useless, he's more of a last resort type deal.
he's a 5/4.. thats really weak, in my opinion. a bolt and a gut shot could take him out....
andd he costs 10, which really hurts me if i reanimate him.

i think i'd rather a simic sky swallower, main. i loveee shroud, it's so powerful. and once i have my main guy out, i just start sending them to the red zone. i play it very aggressively.

opinions?

you can use it right away, theres a free demo version, but it has all the cards and everything. you play against other users online (:
so they build their own decks

To be honest, I have no idea. Just google "magic workstation", my friend got it for me, so I'm clueless as to how one would get it.

True, it does. But it also costs 3 mana, which is actually too slow for this deck.

I'd be greedy if I chose 3 creatures for 3 mana, over 1 for 1. ti i can entomb, and t2 i can reanimate, exhume, or animate dead for a t2 whatever I want, lol.
happens more often than you'd think.

So, played this on MWS, never played a game of legacy before in my life, won each match in 2. (:

This deck is ridiculous. Way more fun than standard!

Glad I could be of service! :'D
I can't wait to just rogue it up, as I get deeper into legacy. I'll probably slide to aggro in the future. who knows.

and hahahahahahaha at your my face comment... my sentiments, exactly.
