Yeah, I use visual grids there 100% of the time, but it is not the same. It's close enough to the MTGO visual layout that I am quite used to, but for deck websites, I still prefer this, although that probably has a lot to do with the sunk cost fallacy and nostalgia.

Also, etymologically, nostalgia means 'the pain of going home' and if that does not encapsulate what opening this site feels like nowadays then nothing does.

C'est la vie. I will ride this sunk cost fallacy right until the site gets deleted off the servers.

Yeah, it is pretty much dead, not worth the upkeep and all. But, though moxfiled does have better utility, I am not a fan of the way the deck layout works, or the proverbial avalanche of copy paste decklists (an inevitable consequence of the large user base, I am aware).

I use it on occasion, but though you can choose from many deck view options, none are as good as the one on here IMO, the same goes for descriptions / primers. Plus, I mean, where else can you get a phone number to join the illuminati but here?

Personally, unless another obvious card comes to mind, I like to use [[Our Market Research Shows That Players Like Really Long Card Names So We Made this Card to Have the Absolute Longest Card Name Ever Elemental]] as a placeholder. Surprisingly though, I know what a Badgermole Cub is, and this seems like a decent shell for it. Also props for using [[Masked Vandal]] instead of [[Reclamation Sage]] I genuinely would not have remembered to do that despite only ever playing with the former in Pauper.

Why bother? Cause it's funny as all hell that this ancient, at least in internet years, asinine wall of text appeared on this website of all places. Plus it's something to distract form the horrors of life.

Anyone dig deep into this? Googling it, you can find thousands of results going back 3 or so years of this same copy paste message with the same phone number. But I cannot be arsed to trace the origin or really look into what's up.

I bet it's the secret societies to blame for that, kidnapping the admin, forcefeeding him marmite

In the current metagame you'd need at least one more creature worth returning, some builds go much lower to the ground with [[Shambling Ghast]] & 4 trolls as the main win condition. Either that or a different metagame where essentially having 6 rats for the price of 3 is really really good.

Actually, maybe I am full of shit. For one, the dog is legendary, so going all in on it can backfire sometimes. For another, the rizzler is more or less purely a card advantage beater, with odd exceptions for blocking Urza's Saga constructs etc. Perhaps 3 & 3 or some 3/4 split is correct. This is honestly something you'd have to test extensively.

Yeah, with testing, the extra green source of 1x Witherbloom Campus is worth it, plus you really don't want to miss land drops in most matchups, not even once.

Honestly I would go 4x on The Rizzler, perhaps even cutting a Beanstalk given the current metagame. That's what BUG Beans has been doing for a few months now (fewer beans not more rizz). Though that deck is much slower, but also does not have that dog in it, so I am not sure how it all works out.

Big fan of this pile though, one of the 3 exciting things I have seen in legacy this calendar year.

Much more so than the mana, (fetch lands, hello???), the lack of [[Force of will]] or just some interaction makes this dead in the water. You cannot hide behind a bridge in current legacy. Not against [[brazen borrower // petty theft]], Not against oops all spells, etc.

Love the idea tho, there may be something here.

Brilliant observation. I've gone back and forth on 20 vs 19. You must keep in mind that [[Golgari Rot Farm]] counts for 2 land drops, so it's a 22 land manabase if you squint at it hard enough, that and you have 22 ways of drawing extra cards. Nevertheless, the lists that went 5-0 did run 20 lands with [[Witherbloom campus]] as a 2x

Who is that player that failed to see lethal with [[Electrostatic Bolt]] and an opposing [[Wall of blood]] and proceeded to carry the bolt for years after in his wallet as that single misplay cost him his hall of fame induction? It slipped my mind, but whoever it is, don't show him this deck xDD.
