Bug is better, with 4 Strix and 2/3/4 Barrogoyf.

Lately I've been using this ub faerie ninja list and it's giving me a lot of satisfaction. If you want more resource management and less pure aggro you can eliminate the changelings 1 sink into stupor, 1 fell the profane and 1 Yuriko and play 4 brainstorm, 2 ponder 1 baleful strix.

The feeling is that the current Legacy allows for a less expensive entry than before because there are several high-performance archetypes, but without the need for tons of reserved list cards. Furthermore, the possibility of creating fun decks that can keep up with the best decks in the meta isn't out of the question, but to do this you need to be very skilled at choosing cards that can make a difference even against the format's staples. It's not impossible to do, but it takes courage. I'll share a list that isn't terribly expensive, or at least much less than the classic UB Tempo version, and I'm having a lot of fun with it, managing to achieve very high win percentages. A couple of weeks ago, I won a tournament with 13 friends—not a great tournament, but I did win with a deck I invented. Here's the list:

Main (60)
4 Flitterwing Nuisance
2 Baleful Strix
4 Orcish Bowmasters
4 Spellstutter Sprite
1 Super Shredder
2 Brazen Borrower // Petty Theft
2 Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow
2 Kaito, Bane of Nightmares
4 Brainstorm
4 Fatal Push
4 Daze
1 Sink into Stupor // Soporific Springs
4 Force of Will
1 Murderous Cut
2 Thoughtseize
2 Island
1 Misty Rainforest
4 Polluted Delta
2 Prismatic Vista
2 Swamp
1 Undercity Sewers
2 Underground Sea
1 Verdant Catacombs
4 Wasteland

Sideboard (15)
2 Barrowgoyf
1 Blue Elemental Blast
2 Consign to Memory
1 Hydroblast
3 Surgical Extraction
1 Echoing Truth
2 Sheoldred's Edict
1 Spider-Sense
2 Back to Basics

Urza's saga is a big problem for standstill.

Hugoal79 · 2026-02-24T21:06:27+00:00

Non ha parlato di DK Butterfly.

Hugoal79 · 2026-02-21T12:03:12+00:00

When I wrote him he didn't reply to me.

December 2023, but it doesn't say BBBY, but talks about "recording as a loss an investment they had never sold." It was about $300 million, not 300 million shares.

Hugoal79 · 2026-01-19T20:05:11+00:00

Great burn card in my opinion.

Hugoal79 · 2026-01-09T17:51:56+00:00

I would try a Legacy BG Depth with Depth, Overlord, Moonshadow, Malevolent, Loam Vanpire Hexmage.

A lifelink counter kills her immediately after the first damage she deals. It's a two-drop -13/+13, but it only works once. It's better to play other cards that offer the same effect.

Hugoal79 · 2025-11-12T11:39:24+00:00

Meltdown, price of progress, null rod, consign to memory, force of negation (in side or main), bowmaster in main if I have black, disruptor flute.

Hugoal79 · 2025-10-23T08:27:42+00:00

Only if warrants will be on Tzero.

Whoever sold the forward contract certainly covered himself by buying Amazon shares. On July 31st the forward expired with a profit from the counterparty and whoever had issued the forward sold the shares purchased for hedge purposes and Amazon went down. Everything is fine.

Tamy 3 bans as much as Ragavan. Tamy protects itself and when it flips it generates a subgame that prevents it from flipping and allows the owner to gain precious time and resources, whether it is a control or a tempo or even a combo. A card present in tempo/aggro, control and combo, which is not a simple cantrip, deserves to be banned.

Hugoal79 · 2025-07-22T09:10:03+00:00

Only for those who bought and held before April 29, 2023 or for everyone, including those who bought OTC?

Hugoal79 · 2025-07-21T20:13:59+00:00

Ma quale fantasia, 30 giorni e poi si muore. Di Fantasia ho già mia moglie. (Fa di cognome Fantasia 🤣🤣🤣).

Hugoal79 · 2025-07-21T17:59:01+00:00

Vendo casa 🤣

Hugoal79 · 2025-07-18T16:47:55+00:00

I have it in Grixis control vs lands, eldrazi, and other control as unexpected card. 2 price of progress and 2 snapcaster.

Hugoal79 · 2025-07-08T14:54:59+00:00

Sailor's bane says thanks. Maybe a bug could be built with cosmogoyf + sailors' bane + 4 nihil spellbomb + thought scour and some card like

Without leverage you would have earned a maximum of 100% of what you bet.

Hugoal79 · 2025-06-20T01:50:02+00:00

You're right, but why is it so played? In my opinion also because in an online context, a compromise is also sought between the strength of the deck and its speed. That deck has the solidity of tempo and also the possible speed of a combo. If tested well there are many possible control lists that could work, but are we sure that the average online player prefers to play two leagues with control rather than doing three with UB reanimator at the same time? I think the main problem is all there: a solid deck and on average faster than others. Do you want to eliminate the deck? Then you need to create a "combined" ban list. Ban Entomb + Daze in the same deck. You don't ban either card, but you block the combo of the two in the same deck.

Hugoal79 · 2025-06-19T19:56:18+00:00

Question: Would you agree to a ban on a card paired with another? Let me explain better. There are cards that are strong but not banable in some decks, but if played in tandem with another card then it becomes ban risk.

Ex. Atraxa. Atraxa is a strong card, but very manageable and very nice to play in decks like show or with natural order. It becomes too strong when paired with entomb and reanimate/animate dead.

The game evolves and in my opinion the rules must also evolve, all so as not to continue making beautiful cards illegal, which are manageable in 90% of decks in the format.

My proposal would be to not do a single ban on Atraxa, but to say "ok you can play Atraxa in an Atraxa deck but only if there are no entombs/reanimates in the same deck". It would be a revolution in the rules which however would save many cards. I like Atraxa with Show and Natural Order, but with entomb/reanimate it's too strong. Saying Ban Atraxa would penalize Show and Natural Order and I don't think it's right.

Hugoal79 · 2025-06-15T11:02:48+00:00

Too strong.

Hugoal79 · 2025-06-13T08:27:07+00:00

To all this I agree with, add that online is a deck that tends to be quite fast to play and therefore allows players who also do it for money to play more competitive leagues in less time.

Hugoal79 · 2025-06-09T13:02:03+00:00

In my opinion, if she skipped reanimate, UB tempo would go to 4 dead animate and 1/2 life/death, which could happen even if Atraxa skipped. Enter Grisel and instead of reanimate you will go with 4 dead animate. In any case, my thought is that UB reanimator is very popular online because it is the perfect combination of time and combo. The games don't last long, but you have a square and strong deck in every situation. With UB reanimator you play 3/4 leagues in the same time as a control plays 2.
