I’ve been watching BUG since before rotation. Your face seems to come up often so I figure why not share ideas. There are a few points I would like to touch on. (I have only been playing for 3 months sorry if u thinks this is a waste of time I created an account just to talk to you)
I know you have changed your opinion about ulcerate. And I tend to disagree
It is important to make an impact in the first few turns and bile blight
To me is a tad to inconsistent I think we both agree that 3 life is a moot point.
With that said I would like to examine Murderous Cut.
Murderous Cut at it's soonest playability can come down turn 3
But this being an imperfect would I think its fair to say that it averages a turn 4 play.
Stay with me just walking thru my thought process.
If it comes down turn 4 60% I would like to look at the 1st few turns
T1 land,ulcerate,maybe just scry?
T2 taped land,maybe wall,maybe taped land leave 1 open for a ulcerate???
T3 is where all the magic happens
my point being that a turn 4 Murderous Cut is a bit pointless because
if on turn 4 u cast it for 1b are we really using up the rest of the mana for that turn?
I’d like to think that turn 4 I can have 5mana available the same 60% of the time with that said clearly we have spouts which to the contrary is a amazing card
2 more points to Murderous Cut
If its likely being played turn 4 silence the believers by far is the better choice.
You said it your self fleece mane lion is making a real appearance
Having a main board answer to a god is important
and with Nissa running around do you really want to be fending off 4/4 indestructible tramplers?
By turn 6 maybe even 5 being able to 2for1 is gold it's also a late game mana sink which is never bad Gata love a good sink especially in control
With the new charm and 2 believers in the main there should be nothing unanswered
My 2nd point is Dig Through Time… this cards insane
Personally I want this card at its best as much as possible
Why even potentially ruin it by touching your grave for a cut?
Trust me its not worth it
Time says find a win con or answer (gaining a +1)for 2 mana the cards NUTZ
I have a list and will share it with you but mane later tonight
I’ll tell you now it plays 2 kiora 3 Nissa only 3 coursers
My plan is similar to yours but I’m really trying to create Land in to real advantage, which is perfect for a control deck
I under stand your concerns with mid range but you all ready have side answers in the 75 as far as sphinxes goes I like the card also don't see playing more than 2 and honestly my not play any
I have some games to night my goal is to splash white for a single sorin
Thinking for my mana fixing
Possibility Sandsteppe Citadel x1?
Windswept Heath x1
Flooded Strand x1
Mana Confluence x1
Along with sylvan caryatid x4
I believe a single copy of sorin is what this deck really needs
The life gain alone would make him playable his ult fits our deck very well
Combined with a Nissa even for only 1 turn is amazing
And I’m sure the 2/2 body isn't that bad
