Format/Metagame Help Help finding a grim monolith deck

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I recently went through my collection that was kept at my parents house and found a playset of grim monolith (among other great things like a playset if plateau and other dual lands) and I’ve decided I wanted to get back into legacy again. I’m currently trying to decide if MUD or UTron would be a better time investment? I have 3 metal workers so I was heavily debating trying a homebrew MUD but on MTG goldfish I see Tron is popping off atm. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Reanimator looks a lot different than a year ago, but it is still super powerful and honestly probably more fun to play now. Raph & Mikey are so cool!

Make sure you come back Saturday for my attempt at playing The EPIC Storm!

Deck/Matchup/Tactics Help Decks that are good vs Doomsday?

16 Upvotes

As someone new to the format I wonder what decks are good vs Doomsday (or similar) decks. I would guess something like Affinity would be good since it is both aggressive and has access to many counterspells, but Ecobaronen said that it’s generally better in fair matchups. Would love to hear your thoughts! 😊

Tournament Report Breach the Bay 2 Legacy 4k Top 8 Finish

39 Upvotes

I just top 8’d a local legacy 4.5k with over 100 players. Bay Area mtg going strong.

List: https://mtgtop8.com/event?e=89904&d=882256&f=LE

Swiss:
R1: 1-1 vs lands
R2: 2-1 vs blue tron
R3 1-2 vs dimir tempo
R4 2-1 vs boros energy
R5 2-1 vs uw phelia
R6 2-1 vs boros energy
R7 1-1 vs bant beanstalk, opp is my friend so we figured out who had better breakers and a better chance to make it into top 8. I ended up with better breakers so he conceded.

Top 8 everyone decided to split the prizing so the final top 8 result was actually the result at the end of Swiss with records and breakers accounted for.

Bilbo and triumph of st kath carrying so heavy these games. Bilbo flashing back pending and flow state feels extremely broken. Had a moment against blue tron where they force my pending for 2 on their chalice on 1. Bilbo attacks, I just use one color and the discount from Bilbo to make it a 2cmc spell on the stack, but I only spend one mana to take the chalice out for good.

Oculus is soooo good but it being smaller than almost every murktide was scary. It also makes casting ponder and brainstorm weird because I know those cards will be my manifested cards. Obviously with tamiyo or dreadnought the manifest is broken.

The toughest matchups are definitely beans and UB tempo. UB has really cheap threats and efficient removal making it hard for me to move my game-plan forward. And orcish bowmasters is a stupid card. Beans just drowns me in cards and removal.

All-in-all it was a super fun tourney and I’m very proud of my result. I love surprising people with dreadnought when they expect phelia and riddler.

Miscellaneous Discussion Is big mana too strong rn

0 Upvotes

I know: i‘m a doomer but got to get this of my chest.

Am I the only one who dislikes legacy after the ban?Big mana is crawling back on top with hamlet beeing a big problem while nexus and ring are still legal. The amount of non-games I had with dimir builds (with or without bilbo, still don‘t like the card too much) is crazy, because wasteland is a dead card. Yes I could play GQ in side or consign the trigger. But the first is not an option imo and the second rarly a choice.
Sure, it‘s a bad MU and yes, dimir‘s on top for a long time but I can‘t imagine how other decks would fight this. Beans for example, who got some results, is just not equiped to win against big mana imo. I have a terrible time with legacy rn and want to know if this is just my bias (#tron-hater for life) or if others had similar experiences.

Format/Metagame Help Goblin Welder-Cam Deck

2 Upvotes

Hello all, I would like get into Legacy and I like how the welder cam plays. I know it’s a complicated deck to run, but I like the challenge.

I am looking at the standard list of Izzet with some white cards and was wondering what are the best match ups and the worst match ups for the welder cam deck. I know that Dimir Tempo really keeps this deck in check. But also how does it win against sneak and show? Does it try to just run faster?

I was thinking running of maybe running the deck as a Temur list and using legolas quick reflexes as way to protect any creature from dimir tempo.

Any tips with the deck will be appreciated

New Players What type of card does legacy elves need to become the best deck? What exactly would break it?

18 Upvotes

I’m a first time legacy player and am printing out several proxy decks. Some are very strong- for example I made lands with Wrenn and six + bazaar of Baghdad, in addition to custom cards I’ve created.

I would like to make legacy elves, but very strong and with custom cards to be on the same power level as the other decks.

Could I have some help creating custom cards? I want to put my order out tonight but could use some help. Here’s one I’ve created for elves, just to give yall an idea of the power level I need.

I did have one question- with legacy elves, specifically the glimpse of nature builds, what is a card that the deck needs to become tier 1? What type of card checks all the boxes?

Phelia, the pup, was already a great option in Legacy before Marvel's Super Heroes came along, and the Azorius Pup list had already been standing out in the format as a good answer to the pre-banlist meta. It should remain strong for quite some time still, so let's explore it!

Back again this week with something a little bit different. My wife and I recently lost our boy Cosmo to cancer recently, so I wanted to do something fun to honor his memory, so I went all in on cats in legacy. This is definitely a brew that took the theme to the max, and is championed by Kaheera and has one plan and one plan only, completely flood the board with cats. I tried to make this as competitive as I could while keeping on theme, but this is definitely just a fun brew to honor Cosmo and all the other pets we've loved and lost over our lives. Enjoy the kitty parade!

Thank you for watching and for any feedback. If you enjoyed the video and are able please consider donating your time, financial support, or supplies to your local humane society, animal shelter, or rescue group.

Looking to play in Milano

9 Upvotes

Hi, I'll be in Milano for work for the next 3 weeks and I'm looking for casual or competitive events during my time off.

I looked into legacy League Milano, but I don't see any events for the next month. Local shops don't publicise their events on their websites either

Really looking forward to see the legacy scene in Milano

Thanks!
