1  Eternal Formats / Creative / ?? on: June 03, 2004, 11:47:35 pm
I've got a few questions and a few suggestions  about your current build of Ur Fish.
Fire/Ice Main?
Why one Fire/Ice main? I was Wondering about  it, the only thing I could come up with was maybe for mirror match? I would suggest running 3 side.
Gorilla Shaman
Why one Gorilla Shaman? Seems unnessessary because of null rod. Null Rod takes care of several problems with Dealing with Artifacts, and i've found that when playing against any heavy Artifact deck, null rod Protected by FoW, Misdirection, and Stifle can be a real pain. I would take out the Gorilla Shaman for another Viod Mage.
 Mountian
One mountian?  I can see the idea for it, but it is very unnessessary.It has also messed with your mana a bit. You Added 2 Different seach lands just for that 1 mountian.  On the up side you do have an "Unwastable" , but they can still strip it.
One Stifle!!
Stifle helps this deck extremely, because it Stops: Wasteland, Strip Mine, Powder keg, Deeds, And World Gorger Dragon just to name a few. By Uping the Stifle count, you don't need to throw in the single mountian and the different search lands.I would reconsider putting Stifle back in, and adding another Misdirection. Stifle also acts as a first turn land destruction spell, if you went first and they try to search, stifle.
Hope i Helped.  Very Happy
2  Eternal Formats / Creative / timetwister or LOA? on: June 01, 2004, 11:24:17 pm
Timetwister is P9, but in my opinion Timetwister and LoA should switch places.  I find Timetwister is good, but I'm not impressed with it.  $167 for an LoA isn't that bad.  I would try to get it for like 145-155.

Once again...  Edited for clarity.

3  Eternal Formats / Creative / UR Fish wins! on: June 01, 2004, 11:20:31 pm
You're not too far from the truth Evil, but aggro doesn't beat fish often.  As a matter of fact, I usually smash any aggro deck, siding in [card]Gilded Drake[/card] with [card]Waterfront Bouncer[/card]s, and they get shut down.

Spikey, the Reason why MD isn't played is because you don't have anything to spend the colorless on, and if you have to counter something big you'll most likely take a lot of burn.

And I too was going to create an aggro/control deck using [card]Meddling Mage[/card].  I guess great minds think alike.  Cool

Edited for clarity.

4  Eternal Formats / Creative / G-Wiz Check It out! on: June 01, 2004, 11:15:06 pm
After testing the deck, I've decided to scrap it.  Too inconsistant.  Sorry for wasting your time.

Edited for clarity again, and I locked the thread for you.

5  Eternal Formats / Creative / Ur fish? on: May 31, 2004, 08:24:58 pm
i am tryign to stay away from the UR fish concept, i don't want to throw stand still in here just because of the currect format fish has. Standstill is also unnesessary. i currectly have fish built, and am trying to see if there is anything similair but not exact.

I have been playing Ur fish (Gay Fish) for a couple of months now, Revising it everyone now and then. Here is The first deck list I had:

Creatures: 15
4x Cloud of faeries
3x Rootwater Theif
4x Grim Lavamancer
4x Razorfin Hunter


Lands: 22
2x Islands
4x Volcanic Islands

There Are several options you have with this Layout:
1)Cut Razorfin Hunters for Flying men, Or spiketail, Flying men woudl be preferable.
2)Cut 1 Stifle, 1 null rod for 2 Daze. I tested it it out, works well but you will have to change the SB.
3)Instead of Razorfin Add Fireslinger
Those are some choices.


My Curret Ur Fish Deck list looks like this


Creatures: 14
4x Cloud of faeries
2x Rootwater Theif
4x Grim Lavamancer
4x Flying Men


Lands: 22

SideBoard:
4x Sigil of Sleep

My name is Andrew Giddings. It all started because of my neighbor, if he didn't show me magic i would probably wouldn't be a magic nerd speaking "code words" like Agro, combo, metagame, & other words that make no sence to new players. Very Happy  But anyway i am 18 and a decent player i supose, learning new things everyday, Like you can stifle a Animate dead, but you can't misdirect it to a different target Confused  ,i dunno...sometimes i just wanna killa judge. Been playing for 8 petty years, tryin to learn all the deck names and deck lists that i can, so i can be a better player. my AIM is Zerephel add me and yell at me when i am on when you wana talk. Peace.
