Both can go in any color, both hate on the grave. Nihil can take an entire grave but Surgical can catch them off guard in the middle of a revival or Snapcaster Mage on the stack.
Surgical gives you their hand, hits their deck, messes up their ponders, ruins their revival mid spell and can be cast on turn 0.
Depends what deck you are up against. Surgical is better against control and non graveyard centric decks the spellbomb will be good against people trying to abuse unburial/liliana and heavy self mill/graveyard manipulation.
It's QUITE obvious why they've ignored Werewolves up to this point. Werewolves haven't been developed to the point that WoTC would like; I'm sure DA will have heavy werewolf focus.
Well the Werewolf mythic is in there, so I'd agree. Grab Instigator Gang while it is .30
I usually drop Mikaeus as a 2 drop or 3 if things are looking good. Pump once then start dropping tokens once I've attacked. Kind of forces removal early if there is a Splicer etc online, which opens the door for a Hero. From experience, a Crusader with a WaP on it ends games. Really, really quickly.
My biggest misplay in recent memory was against a G/U/R ramp that sided in exarch/twin as alternate win con. He misplays and lays down exarch on his turn. Passes to me. He is pretty low on health and it's looking good for me. Play my land, have 6 mana open. Hero of Bladehold in my hand, along with O. Ring and another card or two. Instead of o-ring on the exarch, I play hero leaving bluffed leak mana open and pass turn. He twins and wins and I shake my head and wonder what I was thinking. If I had won that match me and my friend would have drew out for 1-2. I ended up losing the next round and not placing at all
The art, the art…I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! ITS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, Weenie is gonna be really powerful in this set. Like REALLY powerful. With Mentor of the Meek, Hero of Bladehold, the FOUR cost Doubling Season (Parallel Lives or something), and now this, Wg Weenie should be amazingly powerful. We know how much of a beast Hero can be. Try a play like this: T1 BoP or new elves that produce W, T2 Mentor, T3 Hero, T4 Parallel Lives, and T5 this. Hehehehe…so it's amazingly powerful in conjunction with any of those.
Gimme gimme gimme let me have some!
Or T5 essence of the wild so if/when your hero attacks it is bringing 4 7/6 guys with it.
i love it when i beat an aggro deck with my $20 control deck. its so satisfying. in fact, the only reason i play is beat a guy with more money than me. i just lolz when their $6 goblin guide cant beat my $0.05 counterspell =]
Mental Misstep is a 3-4 dollar card and is about the only counter spell that beats goblin guide(In standard, atleast)
U/W Swords. Probably with WaP and more more creature/aggro oriented with a bit less control elements. B/R too. Playing around with all 1-2(Diregraf/Stromkirk/Lavamancer) cost creatures + curse of stalked prey and heaps of removal. Clear their board for as long as possible while your guys get bigger. Add in fling and it's pretty fun
