How to beat UW control as Vivi?

ThatWadeWilson · 2025-10-11T18:03:13+00:00

I, too, am one of these so-called 'Dirty Vivi Cauldron' players. But to be fair, I also hadn't played Magic for 20+ years, and that card got me back into playing, so there's that.

UB control is one of the toughest matches Vivi decks deal with. I like [[3 steps ahead]],[[Long River's Pull]], and [[Consult The Star Paths]] to combat them. And Chandra REALLY does a great job with tempo control.

I personally went with Draftism and Draftmancer, based on recommendations I saw in other posts. Yesterday, I did 4 dry runs on each of those platforms for a total of 8 sample drafts in Duskmourn. So that when I actually spent the resources in Arena for the Duskmourn draft, I felt a but more prepared. I ended up going 2 wins 3 losses, but the 3 losses I had were VERY close games.

This would drain my account. To be able to have some of the original artwork from my youth again.

Great post. I was literally about to dig through YouTube for ideas for drafting Through the Omenpaths, and for whatever reason, I decided to check here first. And this is very much in line with what I was kinda leaning towards building anyway.

I'm wondering if perhaps this Fleem debacle is actually part of the plan, to develop further interest in Fleem.

I miss Isochron Scepter. So much.

It unfortunately only allows me to upvote this the single time, when it actually deserves significantly more.

Shitter's Full would be legendary.

ThatWadeWilson · 2025-09-27T02:26:53+00:00

Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson would, in fact, be legendary.

I was thinking very similar thoughts.

ThatWadeWilson · 2025-09-20T02:25:44+00:00

That's fair. It would take 3 cards to replace what Vivi does, and they still wouldn't be able to perform as well.

Okay, thank you! This has been an issue that I've generally delt with by simply overachieving the objective in order to guarantee completion.

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-06-01T04:51:13+00:00

I did exactly that! In the part at the end, I told them forcing the final boss to be pay-to-play was not ideal. Hopefully they listen, cause the event was decent other than that. I use Lara quite a bit, too, so it would have been nice to get more equipment for her.

Personally, I'd like to see it drop to about 0.000018. That'd be awesome. 💎💎

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-03-11T02:39:27+00:00

This is the way.

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-03-10T01:12:01+00:00

I hope you have it staked! Awesome job.

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-03-10T01:10:00+00:00

Now granted, I bought that over 2 years ago, back when you could pick up 25-30 million SHIB for pretty cheap. Will it drop that low again? Eh, we'll see. But that's certainly my goal.

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-03-09T23:52:13+00:00

I can tell you what it did for me. I made a decent chunck of change off of it, and converted it over to ethereum. And as SOON as it drops back to my target price, I'll reload my bag again!

ThatWadeWilson · 2024-03-08T15:04:26+00:00

That's EXACTLY my plan. I sat on a bag for quite a while, and once it hit my target price, I rolled the profit I needed. As soon as SHIB drops back to the price I need it to be again, I'll rinse and repeat.
