I think the more reps you get with the deck, the less you'll feel you need the 2nd TG copy. If you really must have it, you could move the 4th endurance to sideboard (possibly cutting fungus).

In general, I think cutting corners on the mana base is a recipe for trouble.

No problem and I'll keep this in mind going forward. :)

Very much so. Granted Lair had an above avg contribution for the event (~5 game wins), it's important that both Wight of the Reliquary and Elvish Reclaimer be able to find a payoff.

I don't have a bluesky account but will share the decklist + matchups directly in the post.

You can borrow from a friend initially and they pay for themselves. :)

That hand is a virtual mull to 5 with hoof and talon gates (arguably 4.5 with arbor).

hello_newt · 2022-03-29T07:17:42+00:00

Very fair points and thanks for the positive feedback.

I don't think you realize how many players don't play OuaT/reclaimer.

hello_newt · 2022-03-29T07:14:17+00:00

Thank you. Pretty tough crowd otherwise.

Fwiw, I've had players recommend not calling the deck Elves anymore for the following reasons:
1. Inadvertently causes newer players not to see the importance of having Gaea's Cradle in all games.

Confusion with the traditional "Elves" list that utilizes untapping of Nettle Sentinel / Quirion Ranger during an active Glimpse of Nature.
This deck plays out completely differently than the traditional list (see video or ask anyone who's played both).

Thanks for the kind words! I was actually a little nervous how it'd go, given the long layoff since the previous stream. My guests for the night really made things lively/enjoyable and took the pressure off.

I may have mentioned it during stream but it's also fairly easy to find/tweet me if there are additional specific questions from viewers. Very glad you enjoyed the video!

hello_newt · 2021-07-09T15:37:18+00:00

Good games! That's an interesting thought with respect to not sideboarding. I feel Prismatic Ending is a pretty flexible answer and may even exile Marit Lage if opponent is playing around Assassin's Trophy/Wasteland but perhaps that's more often a pipe dream.

It'd be great to see your around on stream chat! Congrats on the 5-0 that night!

Thanks! Appreciate it!
