To Andrea, what's with Read the Runes? Is it as good as you thought it would be? Is it anywhere near better than running the 4th Thirst for Knowledge? Why did you run so many Cunning Wishes? How can you feel comfortable piloting a blue based control deck with no Brainstorms?
Hi. I've thought that I'll play with a lot of storm.decks. The strongest card against this deck is chalice of the void. CotV setting it on one is the better choice because TPS and other tier 1 as T1T,Keeper and Belcher have a lot of spell with cc 1. So I've tried to reduce the number of spell with cc1 in my deck to "exchange" 6 cards (sol ring,mystical,ancestral and 3 welders) with duress,brainstorm and all spells with cc1 that my opponents could play. I think that with 4 AK,3 TFK,2 Intuition,2 Deep Analysis and 1 Read the Runes plus Gush and the second read on side (avaible by wish) Brainstorm isn't necessary.
I play read the runes because is usefull to sacrifice CotV when I'm in full control. That allow me to play goblin welder.
I play 3 cunning wish because I've not removal in my maindeck and because I've played Hulk Smash and T1T for a lot of time and I cannot play without them.
Sorry for my bad English. I hope that MaxxMatt will help me and will explain in a better English my thoughts.
