    Why do we play 4x Thoughtseize 2x iok?

    One of the thing I like in going Esper/Grixis+white is Celestial Purge + Disenchant in the sideboard. The first actually helps a lot in the mirror (planeswalkers and Shadow's war) + Moon & Leyline (which usually are in deck against whom we should side it anyway) and Disenchant also provide a similar effect.

    I'm playing the white splash. Ranger main. With 2x wear//tear from the side.

    So I'm thinking about cutting snapcaster mage completely from the 75

    My win rate has jumped to almost 80%. Since I switched from grixis control to shadow. I'm loving this deck.

    I run 2 surgical extraction main with 2 side. It's been freaking sweet.

    I'll be moving k command to side and putting 2x surgical extraction main, with 2x side. Since I didn't have my street wraiths (mail) I played 4x surgical extraction main tonight. Helped a lot in games.

    Hey guys. Been playing grixis control for 8 months now. I jumped over to this extremely aggressive control. Been doing okay. Mainly because I use bad list haha.

    just out of curiosity, what are the percentages for our various tron matches and are there any ways to improve them?

    all of them seem atrocious to me


    I like to thoughtscour them and surgical any lands and threats I see. A snap+thoughtscour won be a match up vs tron before

    Hey guys! I'm a new player to control and I completely love the archetype. My main concern right now is how to play Cryptic Command correctly. What are its main interactions? When do I choose which modes? Can anyone give me a crash course on it?


    My rule of thumb. How can I get the best out of this mode? Can I get into snap cryptic loop?

    So I've been trying new things. Long story short going back to original list for an iq this weekend. Hopefully I don't miss play to much


    Whats the "original list" Im curious Smile



    Basically Cory burckhart list. I ended up 2-3. Started off really good. Then my luck and bad keeps and some small miss plays. Oh well. Deck doing well. I'm gonna stay on my list for awhile

    Hey, i just made a grixis control deck because of the new MM reprints.

    It is a pretty staple list, would like to know for the tron decks. Can we just play blood moon and curve our mana base towards it? Fulminator mage + surgical combo to against tron is pretty mediocre because its less than 5 cards for that match up. I also didn't like AV as much as thought scour when tasigur are key cards vs. the mirror and most of our match ups to block out pushes.

    I also love the 1 of torrential gearhulk because its a massive body and recurring cryptic or kolag command again is very nice. Also, what is the best ratio of thoughtseize to inquisition? Should i just prepare knowing that "x" tournament is most death shadow, so i should play 4 inquisition 2 thought seize, then SB 2?



    I'm got 3x inquisition and 2x thoughtseize main. I put spell snare and countersquall in side. It's working great so far. I still need to test it more.

    I don't like fatcaster mage. To slow for me. Besides we got 4x snapcaster. For that exact reason. However it is a fast clock.
