Almost sounds like modern There's absolutely 0 synergy here lol If you scry things to the bottom, you likely don't wanna shuffle because you could draw them back. Opposite if you put them on top. I just wanna see all the 10 fetches in Modern so I can finally play Grixis Delver :D | ||

http://sales.starcitygames.com/deckdatabase/displaydeck.php?DeckID=66983 Tom Ross has been Top 8'ing all of the local events with that list...I mean, he is Tom Ross, but it shows the list isn't a fluke, (It's from tomoharu saito) He has a few articles on it too if interested: http://www.starcitygames.com/article/28503_My-Top-Three-for-States.html | ||

http://www.starcitygames.com/article/28545_You-Pick-the-Deck.html Decks listed are: Boss Sligh, Mono White Midrange (my favorite), Naya Tokens, B/W Humans, Mono Blue ft.. Crystalline Nautilus. The Monowhite midrange is based off of Tomoharu Saito W/u midrange. Personally I think the blue is worth it, but Tom Ross doesn't. Regardless, I think it's a pretty interesting standard deck that has potential. | ||

I hate Young Pyromancer and cantrips. I think I'm starting to hate Delver too. Too much variance and risk ! I'm now playing the Hoogland version with Spellstutter Sprites and will soon move to my own version with more Ninjas, Cryptics, and Shoals :3 | ||

I played around 100 games with Ninja Bear Delver and it's just a bad control deck. 90% of the games it wins are through Cryptics/Snap cryptics, but Phantasmal Bears + Delver don't help at all in that optic. Going into a full-on Ur control build (with real removal instead of Vapor Snags) would allow the Ninja to perform as the win condition, and that's all we really want. Rebuying ETB cards like Clique, Sprite, and Snapcaster allows you to get even moar value ! | ||

Man I feel old... 187 is stupid, doesn't describe anything, and has no real origin (it was supposed to be for ETB destroy effects). ETB is easily understood and clearer. Your point makes no sense. | ||

Your point makes no sense. 187 is what we used to call it (police code for homicide) and I remember reading for years the effect described as such in articles and tourney reports and even in casual conversation both in person and in forums. Then I leave the game for almost a decade and suddenly the lingo is all different. Its arbitrary in the end, and ETB is both more user friendly and doesn't require knowledge of the american legal system. But we could just as easily call them trigger creatures, assists, or any other random terminology that sounds cool. A decade ago it was 187, today its ETB, ten years from now it will be something else. Its how it goes. I feel old because of that shift. | ||
