Ive found most of the manlands to be Way too much trouble, raging ravine, creeping tar pit, and celestial collonnade arent easy to block, well...block and kill anyway. At least with path you can get rid of it.
Whats really funny is that i ran something like this back in alara-zen standard and have been dieing to get reinforcements since knight of the white orchid and sigiled paladin left...
I do wonder why other players have decided to cut path to exiles down to 3 or less, it seems too good of a card against the different manlands and things like demigod of revenge, vengevine, and most of all wurmcoil engine...
"tap all creatures your opponents control"-cryptic command
Forget You, i believe you're right. Okay, now i know that was possibly my opponent's misplay then. I like the idea of Runed Halo and I could use the same number of slots I have been (2) Hmm...
I am intrigued by a boros idea, as one could also use Vexing Shusher to protect against counterspells, I could even see this being another thread soon, but for now Im going to stick with WW. I believe there is still untapped potential as of yet.
The deck Ive had the most problems with are elves, besides boardwipes Ive only come up with Linvalla, Keeper of Secrets and Ethersworn Canonist to slow them down...
I think Pithing Needle would be useful against Ezuri and Fauna Shaman, also in other matchups against Jace 2.0 and other stuff.
Believe it or not, ive had success with using Leyline of Sanctity vs control. As long as its not bounced by cryptic or destroyed by esper charm, it stops jace from fatesealing you, cruel's namesake card, and cryptic from tapping down your team.
Is there currently any major way to improve the elf matchup? So far the only things ive come up with would be using ethersworn canonist to buy time until you can get either Linvalla or DoJ. The next thing i was thinking of trying would be to side in Pithing Needles also to shut down Ezuri and Fauna Shaman.
Besieged looks to be a wonderful set.
