What the ever living gently caress, why is Goryo's Vengeance $50 all of a sudden? I literally bought a playset not a month ago for $5 each.

Splice Goryo's Vengence onto Nourishing Shoal exiling a green fatty, giving you enough life to go wild with Griselbrand, finding your win con (chucking lands at your opponents face w/ some GR legendary). Bunch of other useful arcane instants give you a lot of flexibility and resiliency.

Cool. I like Haste in green. 7 mana is also basically free in Gx devotion, so standard is going to be fun for a little bit.

Reminder that that card is a reprint that did less than nothing the first time. Not definitive proof that it won't see play the second time around, but pretty damning. e: ^ Sultai charm is not non-green. Non-green means "is not green". Sultai charm is green.

Entropic posted:Abzan Charm also kills it. I mentioned Sultai Charm because UB control often plays the Sultai triland just for UB dual. But it's probably of too narrow a use to use up a sidebord slot/distort the mana.

Toshimo posted:That's a bad way to look at it. Besides, this deck was artificially created to be the least unrealistic deck that the mulligan rule change would effect. In the real world, Delver builds aren't 4 Delvers, 36 spells, and 20 lands. You've got things like Snapcaster and Monastery Mentor and Young Peezy and Taylor Swiftspear that could go in. And even if you did play just Delver, a 3% better chance of getting a turn 2 Delver does not equal a 3% better chance of winning.

Yeah I'm not sure how it was when this was legal last time but there's currently a deck that comfortably plays 7 drops early. Being able to just crack a control player (otherwise a bad matchup for Gx) for 8 unavoidable damage and then forcing a wrath seems very valuable.

Zemyla posted:You can't really take percentages of percentages, it doesn't make sense. If probability worked like that, I could say the chances of not having the turn 2 flipped delver are 4% lower. But you can't say the chances of X went up 10% and the chances of (not X) went down 4%. That's not how probability works. It actually does work that way. Percentages are always of something. the number of games with turn two flipped delver goes up by 3% of all games played, or by 10% of the previous number of games that had a turn 2 flip. Nothing wrong or disingenuous about either statement.

Gaea's Revenge didn't see play with ramp as good as Harrow and Cultivate. It's just a big dumb beater. Maybe it'll see play as a sideboard against UB control.
