Kataki or Cannonist

[ShiftyKapree]

Which one should be maindecked in U/W Fish Kataki or Cannonist? I feel the Cannonist makes you have more control of the game but tougher decisions to make when playing. Kataki makes you pay one for your null rod every turn but if you play kataki there going to sac there moxes anyway since u have null rod out. So which one is truly better?

The answer is dependant on your metagame.

Canonist is the clear choice unless your meta is infested with workshops.

The Metagame is unkown so I really don't understand what to play.

If you don't know the metagame, then Fish might not be the right choice.  There's nothing worse than constantly having the wrong answers in your deck.

Play something that has its own strategy and win condition, rather than something that relies on stopping its opponent long enough to win.

Or go with Canonist.

If you're going in an unknown metagame I recommend you to play UW artifact Aggro http://www.themanadrain.com/index.php?topic=36705.0 instead of UW Fish.

It has a fishy feeling around it, but has more raw power instead of answers.

Cannonist is better.  There's really no question.  I'm not even sure how much I like Kataki in general, didn't even realize the dissynergy between the two.

Well looking at the current decks, the metagame is really there for me, I just don't know if I'll run into more combo or Tezz control/ Workshop decks. I guess it is really personal preference.
