Here's my take on a Nic Fit list: CREATURES 2x Dryad Arbor 4x Veteran Explorer 2x Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary 1x Eternal Witness 1x Questing Beast 2x Shifting Ceratops 1x Titania, Protector of Argoth 1x Ruric Thar the Unbowed 2x Carnage Tyrant 1x Hornet Queen 1x Omnath, Locus of Rage 1x Progenitus 1...

It has occurred to me that Djeru and Hazoret could be entertaining if we max out on Emrakuls. Does anyone have the means to test this? If not, I'll probably eventually proxy something up.

Does the deck want Cruel Somnophage // Can't Wake Up? If so, what do we drop for it?

I did an experiment where I started a test game against Storm with Soulless Jailer on the battlefield, and it wasn't significant enough to overcome Storm's gameplay when I kept a totally dead hand, so, perhaps that is not a change worth keeping. I tested Atraxa in the Griselbrand slot, and it defini...

How do we feel about Atraxa, Grand Unifier in the Griselbrand slot?

Got to play some CRAB BATTLE!!! on Sunday. It is still beautifully oppressive.

Had two play sessions in the past month with this deck involved across 5 or 6 games. In the first or second one, I was able to get Yidaro to hit the board. Turns out Forerunner of the Empire combos quite well with him, though it's not the most optimal strategy, since you often have to Cycle Yidaro i...

Soulless Jailer seems like a MASSIVE silver bullet against Storm, Reanimator, Lands, and Dredge. While it's less effective against Reanimator if I don't go first, I am severely tempted to drop the Stronghold Gambits and Surgicals for a playset of these in the side. Does anyone have any input on thi...

After some considerations, I'm going to try the following changes:

4x Raging Regisaur → 4x Yidaro, Wandering Monster
4x Raging Swordtooth → 4x Ripjaw Raptor

I feel like this may not be what the deck wants, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Will report back with results once I can test.

Unfortunately, I don't have many opportunities to play Legacy, in general, so, I have not seen the impacts of the bans.

What about Izzet Charm or Arcane Infusion?

So, how do we feel about the latest bans?

Do we want Yidaro, Wandering Monster as a 2-of in here?

Fair enough! In that case, good luck, and I hope your tuning goes well.

Have you considered: Carnage Tyrant ? It's a threat that has to be dealt with, eventually, and while I realize it dies to wrath and edict effects, it's still a sizeable beatstick that requires specific types of interaction to be dealt with. Kinjalli's Sunwing ? It's a mild stax-y effect that might m...

Does Demigod of Revenge have legs in this deck? Seems like it could provide a solid stream of threats throughout the game. Demigod is cute, but it isn't enough of a threat/gamechanger on its own. If we're at the point where we have enough in the grave to make a difference, we've already won or the ...

Ooh. I think I remember there being a number of decks that used Strip Mine; if not, this could be strong!

Soulless Jailer seems like a MASSIVE silver bullet against Storm, Reanimator, Lands, and Dredge.

Do Jumpstart cards (like Chemister's Insight ) really qualify? The Jumpstart ability lets you cast it from your graveyard by discarding a card <in addition to its normal costs>. You're still paying the actual mana cost of the spell. This is presumably also why Retrace ( Oona's Grace ) is not on the...

If I had enough turns, I could potentially build up an army of Overgrown Armasaur Saprolings/Sprouting Phytohydras by pinging them with Goblin Bombardment, but given that my opponent would have no incentive to wait for me to do so (short of some Yu-Gi-Oh! anime-style drama %$#%$#%), I don't foresee ...

busy times indeed. It's been awhile too, since I was able to add images to the site gallery.... cards that my legends deck are missing.. Shaile, Augusta. Fynn the fangbearer, Kolvori God of Kinship, and Hajar Loyal Bodyguard. Just a single copy of each. Thinking of ordering them from SCG when extra...

It's occurred to me that the OP still reflected a list containing Dreadhorde Arcanist. I have since changed this to Dragon's Rage Channeler. Anyone who wants to take over this thread and own the Primer (and subsequently update the original description of the deck), feel free to message a Legacy mod ...

Have you gotten around to testing any of the matchups as of yet?

Could you put a spoiler in the OP containing legal sets for this format? I think that'd help a lot with engagement, at least with regards to deckbuilding.
