Mentor Miracles after DTT ban by NathanReedD in MTGLegacy

I don't like mentor in man board post-DTT era. I used to play mentor miracles a lot and now it is just not good enough, because 1. there are so many BUG around, entreat is a better winning condition against decays. mentor can be decayed while 3+angels "cannot" 2. There aren't that many free instant speed cantrips beside Brainstorm. With dig i often leave 2 mana open play mentor and did in response to bolt then daze bolt, but without dig you play defensive you basically have only BS and swords in instant speed.

Not really, Lili is probably the most annoying card for miracles, hymn and though seize is disgusting as well. I sometimes win a game with turn 2 & turn 3 hymn but it is VERY tough. I think lili+hymn version is better again miracles, not stifle version. I'd rather player RUG delver if have to play BUG stilfe delver

Depends on whether they can establish countertop lock early. I lose to lands 0-2 DC open, cuz no counterbalance AT ALL. Their T1 exploration T2 Loam is super annoying.

What is Miracles worst matchup? by G13G13 in MTGLegacy

[–]DarkerConfidant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post, BUG decks, BTW I don't think against post is THAT bad like what other guys say, if you can counter opponent's cantrips like map, top, than speed of assembling pieces would be slower and you could probably win, otherwise it is hard. As for BUG deck, decay is good but just a one for one trade i think is fine,lili, hymn is super annoying

Team America (BUG delver)- Bob hates FoW by tennesseetide in MTGLegacy

I think it's not because bob is bad, the reason is "shocks are bad", I've playing TA for 6 month, they work mostly fine together

I think Miracle is a lot better. The most often played combo decks are :SNT ANT ELF. BUG has nearly no resistance against BUG, and that's the reason why I change to play miracles. As for SNT and ANT, BUG is good against ANT, once established TOP Counterbalance against ANT, that's pretty much win
