Hey there!
Shocklands or scry lands imo. This deck should make people flip tables with Elite Arcanist. However, because of the time it takes to play the Arcanist, you might consider adding a few board wipes such as Supreme Verdict. I only say that because if you play an aggro deck they might have 3-5 creatures already out swinging. Maybe take out the Wispering Madness x4 and add Detention Sphere x2 and Supreme Verdict x2. Also, to echo the comment above a little more, Ultimate Price is one more mana to cast and thats cheap coming from a "destroy monocolor creature" and going to "destroy target creature or planeswalker." Wispering Madness is great when you dont have anything worthwhile in your hand. However, since you are looking for a combo of cards in your hand, I think Wispering Madness needs to be removed. I thought about it awhile before I wrote this section, and I dont think it matters short or long term for what you are trying to do. This kinda goes for Jace to. I mean, I love having the "do nothing, opponent mills 10" option, or even the +1 to draw a card but, IMO, take out Wispering Madness. One last thing you should consider for your sideboard is "Mark of the Vampire." I am not sure how helpful it is, but it would make your Reaver a 6/5 deathtouch and lifelink. Pairing that with aqueous form and it can get pretty nasty fast for your opponent. I say sideboard due to the fact that you might not want to play it all the time. Thoughts? How has it played for you?
Ryan, check out what I just made.....http://www.mtgvault.com/squidbeard/decks/esper-attempt/
Wow! This is exactly the deck I want to build! I have been playing green/black against this deck and I get faced every time. Would you mind looking at my deck that wants to be like this one and giving me a few pointers? http://www.mtgvault.com/squidbeard/decks/bluewhite/Thanks and again, nice deck!
I would love to get your input on my green/black deck standard deck if you don't mind?http://www.mtgvault.com/squidbeard/decks/blackgreen-2/
Ive updated my deck, http://www.mtgvault.com/squidbeard/decks/blackgreen-2/
Anyone got any comments on this? Any ideas/tips/critique welcome!
I have been trying to get my Golgari deck up and running, and tried it out at FNM (first time ever playing against anyone). I was wondering if you would take a look at my deck and give me some pointers? (http://www.mtgvault.com/squidbeard/decks/blackgreen/) I really hate when people post links to their decks in comments, but I really like your deck and want to make mine similar.
I am digging this deck. I also use cards like congregate and others to help me gain some life back. How do you like your land set up? Do you feel like you don't have enough mountains?
Im pretty new to Magic, but if all your creature cards are Slivers, why do you need Hivestone or Amoeboid Changeling?
Im curious why you added slivers in here. Is it because they are cheap?
Muktol, Unfortunately, I might have to sack this deck, or put it back to the original Dimir Dementia intro deck. I love the idea of this deck, but I do not have enough cards to accommodate a decent, efficient deck. You bring up a question, is making my opponent discard more control rather than milling? I guess I have been under the impression the more cards I can get in the opponents graveyard the better, regardless of how I do it. Another question I have is what makes this deck illegal for standard play? Thanks for the resources in the links, I am definitely going to check them out.
I suppose I should have added some to the sideboard, but I just don't what to put there. Any recommendations on what to drop?
Awesome, I'm going to take your advice and see how that pans out. What would you recommend I put in for permanents. As I said, I just started and have some cards from m12-13, gatecrash, ravinica, and a lot from m14.
Any good millers out there than can give me some help here?
How would you cut it? 5 of each land out?
Good call! I would love to but I only have 1 at the moment. Anything else you would add/take away? Do I have too much land?
Any advice or comments are welcome. Thanks!
