    I am very saddened to read the news on MTGSalvation. I have strong empathy for the site as it helped to get where I am today. Thanks, everyone for reading my primers and I hope we can continue our journey together on my website and discord server, where I still continue to post content frequently!

  • posted a message on Narset, Parter of Veils Combo Control, (AKA Pitch Blue ) Primer
    Taken from the combo section of the primer:

    In order to lock the opponent out of drawing cards with lore broker and Notion Thief's ability, you must activate the looting effect in response to them drawing a card on their draw step, so they immediately loot, not drawing the card for the loot, and discarding the card they just drew, with you also drawing an extra card due to Notion Thief's ability.


    I would rephrase that a little bit because it might be a bit confusing for newer players. The way its phrased here would suggest that you want to activate the looting before they draw their card for the turn. Obviously, you can't respond to the normal card drawn in the draw step, as drawing your normal card is not a trigger and the draw step starts with players drawing a card without anyone getting priority.

    I know what you mean and the combo is correct to work here, but I would just say: Activate the loot effect in your opponents draw step.

    It was not me, yeah, but I really am keen to have great results like that gathered on the website! That certainly was a strong finish for Peter.

    Do we like Leyline of the Void more now with the new mulligan rules? I’ve been living under a rock and just found out about the change. The odds of finding one are pretty dang good if you really wanted to dig (i.e., 78.3% for a mull to 5 and 87% to 4). Is that enough to convert any of y’all that were not in the LotVoid camp, or are you going to stick to your other hosers? Obviously it’ll be just as easy to find them too, though they won’t be present on turn-0. I’m just curious what y’all think about it. It scares me a little that combo can dig like that though.


    The new rule is not implemented yet and will be tested to figure out if its safe. So nothing fixed yet.

    Concerning Leyline, I don't think there is more incentive to play it based on the mulligan than on the actual metagame. Leyline will always be a strong option if you expect many GY based decks. In the case of Dredge now, it makes sense to play it.

    More importantly, sorin does not belong to rock Wink

    I also think BGx does not really need him.

    If you want to build a consistent manabase with 3 Treetops and 3 FoR, it basically means your complete other 18 lands need to be black producing lands in order to support turn 3 Liliana.

    You could skimp on it a little and play 17 lands instead, which some people do. In that case my recommendation would be:

    Would it be possible to add Amulet Titan to the sideboard guide?

    Agreed, it feels like an unwinnable matchup.


    I have a new project running, which is to convert the primers to my new webpage: https://www.greatnessatanycost.com/

    There you can find the Amulet Titan SB Guide!


    Any way that you can make the site auto adjust to the size of your monitor? Currently right now it's unreadable on a 15" laptop.

    You can set the zoom at 75% to read it if you are having a similar problem.


    thx for addressing this it should be fixed now for your small screen.

    the problem is that he needs to survive one turn before you get to use him and also this makes him a terrible topdeck, unfortunately. kinda rough I feel.

    Your list looks good, good luck for the tournament!

    I am interested to hear how E-Witt performs for you. She can very well serve as Snapcaster for Rock decks in a sense, and value like that is great.
