    I would take a look at one copy of sea gate wreckage, especially in the decks with expedition map. It can be used as a way to get card advantage in the late game same as eye but you can keep the legendary land count low. The sol land affect from eye might be too important but I haven't play tested the new format and likley won't until we know what is banned or unbanned. On the topic of extirpate and surgical, if you ever get to surgical the card main combo card in a deck like scapeshift for example it looks insane but otherwise the card doesn't do much. I'm closer to the lsv thinking on cards like this and I generally don't ever want to play them, especially not main.

    A question and then a desire for feedback, I am currently on 2 eye of Ugin, is it worth moving up to 4 now that we have so many playable eldrazi?

    Second, I'm posing up my current tentative decklist post OGW, love to hear feedback from anyone who has a moment.



    I currently can't get behind ever needing 4 eyes but it is certainly possible with 3 likley being the correct number. I think your numbers are raw partially because everything is new and you are looking to jam a bunch into your list. I don't like caves in today's world but seems good if we need enough lands that produce actual colourless and both colours of mana. I'm not a fan of main deck surgical and exirpate but I get why you want them there, I personally wouldn't run any main. I don't think you need a third basic plains and I like 25 lands, especially if Ulamog is staying in the 75. Good first crack though. I can't wait for the full set and the b and r announcement.

    I was worried this deck wasn't going to get anything but this week has been great. Cast trigger is insane but can't block probably means we can't play this but it is worth considering. BTW I'm Matt from the open, been very busy, hope I can add to the convo here.


    Really appreciate you taking the time to post over here as well, what brought about the addition of Lili MD and SB and how was MD spellskite during your run.


    I saw a league list, and I would shout out the person if I remembered. I'm going to take one sentence right now to say that anyone that had a list on goldfish previous to mine has contributed to my list, I can take little credit for any innovations. The addition of lilli just made a lot of sense to me. It is a little worse then any given single removal or discard spell but she helps back up both those slots. I had two duress sideboard but found lili could take one slot and allow me more flexibility in more match ups. Spellskite is fills a similar role in that it is a flexible card that is doesn't necessarily help your primary game plan but is good in plenty of match ups. Going forward that slot will likely be going to one of these new eldrazi.

    Killing Bogles is big, because that match ups is very tough. Something Lili also does, also I'm willing to give up match ups on decks like bogles. It's important to have a game plan but not dedicated cards for decks like that. Weirdly this deck doesn't really care about two drops because of how our lands work we want 3 drops. Unless they print a slightly better two drop then eldrazi mimic, casting off one temple or eye can be really powerful.

    Ya I would agree that previous spoilers have been more relevant. The fact that two mana eldrazi with abilities like this are in this set is very exciting.
