Since the last tourney in Paris, I begin to worry about the strenght of combo decks relying on Frantic Search : that is Tendrils decks and High Tide decks. ...
So wait, you're saying that you think combo is overpowering in a format where combo rarely goes off before turn 3 (if not turn 4) and people can play 4...
combo rarely goes off before turn 3 yes but that's faster than any other deck. people can play 4 skullclamps Skullclamp doesn't help against combo decks, and...
I have played combo decks since I started playing Magic and I currently run them in Vintage, Legacy, and Peasant. I would be very sad, to say the least, if...
I do love playing Tendrils too and you're right to say it would be a great loss for the Peasant metagame. I am not in a hurry, and I won't change anything soon...
I do not believe the format is unhealthy at all. These decks are balanced, and sure burn has a heavy board vs combo... combo is it's ONLY bad matchup, it can...
It's very hard for me to find the right way to answer you ... I think I'll stay polite. combo is the ONLY bad matchup of Burn Straight burn (without Scepter)...
I'm glad to see real stats here, it really helps your case. I believe a truly healthy format should have control, combo and aggro decks each going the distance...
All Paris Peasant tourney decklists can be found there : http://peasant-magic-fr.blogspot.com/ In summary, here are the top 4 decks (I won't give top 8 because...
Thanks for the data, Christophe. One thing I find particularly interesting is the absense of High Tide from the most recent winning list. I've always assumed...
Massive amounts of truth here! -Abe ... From: Chris Morling <ctmorling@...> Reply-To: peasantmagic@yahoogroups.com To: peasantmagic@yahoogroups.com ...
I agree with everything you say Chris but you didn't give your conclusion ! You say that : combo are boring to play against standard is great because it...
So wait, now you are saying you don't want it banned because Abe and Chris said so? LAME. Also, banning cards for the sake of change just reeks of being a bad...
... Well, Christophe says he wants to avoid a boring metagame in which frantic search decks are clearly dominating. That means the ban is a solution but he...
Let's be clear, if I was sure banning would be necessarry, I wouldn't wait your blessing and I could do it for my next tourney ! Now, if I came and ask some...
Yes, yes, yes and yes. Some times ago, I have even thought to the last solution (allow the use of hosers as common) and planned to post it before I gave up the...
Chris and I had a discussion, a while back, on the unfair advantages possessed by ProsTides. We both agreed that 'Tides is powerful, perhaps warranting further...
Agreed. Gigadrowse against aggro is sort of a more mana intensive blue fog for their creatures. Or it can be cast on an opponents upkeep to stop them from...
Luckily there are some answers to Gigadrowse : In my last tourney, I played with Tendrils against High Tide which tried to tap all my lands at my EOT : I take...
The North Jersey Veteran Mages will be holding its sixth tournament on Wednesday, July 12 at 7:30 pm in Livingston, NJ. The format for this event will be...
Last month there was much discussion about Channel/Kaervic's Torch decks after it did well in a tounament. Many seemed miffed that this was a fluke. I want to...
Decklists can be found there : http://peasant-magic-fr.blogspot.com/ To summarize : only 17 players (some usual players went to GP Toulouse) 3 Black Hand deck...
Hey guys, I'm new to peasant magic and I'd like to get some tournaments started where I am from (Socal). I've already got a few buddies of mine building decks...
Elf ball is a fine deck and much more consistant than my Channel/Ball list. I think Elf Ball needs more testing and all in is possibly a better deck. But...
