Library in Tezz and Control

[JudasKilled]

Now I have talked to some people on MWS and others IRL and have heard varying opinions from various people.  Hell by M Soly two diffrent opinions .  I have heard always run it, I have hard dont bother due to duress ( if there running it or you are)

My real question is dose tezz have a SB slot to devote to it because i think its a beast against other control decks so what do you guys think of Library in the board?

Eastman-Tezz has been dominating the New England scene, and it doesn't run it, but runs 4 anti-tezz cards in the SB: 2 REB and 2 Remora.  It seems like you could run it in 1 of those slots, if you thought it was better than the other options.

i dont play tezz myself i think its for scrubs, but i still consider its options 4 some reason

I've always thought that most of the time library locks you into some shitty lines of play and can keep you from casting drain a turn early

I think the format is too fast for library. By that I mean you want drain online asap.  And if your on the play, keeping a relatively bad hand with library in it is asking to get blown the fuck out by duress.  Not to mention, if I see library I just start running out bombs to make you force of will. Lot of good that library does you when you cant activate it you know? I would rather bait out a random spell like FOF, while keeping you off your draw engine and with a slight chance of resolving something because you waited till turn 3 to get double blue up.  I guess what I am trying to say is that its easy to play around it.

i agree.  when it was in my deck i would not counter cards i normally would just so i could keep 7 cards.
i took LoA out of my deck even though i really wanted to keep it (fantastic card and my wife's name).  i also found that i needed fast colored mana so i would hold it and by the time i played it, i only had a couple cards in my hand rendering it near useless.

When I had it, I always played my game normally. Most of the time, I would usually wait a little before I played it to deal with stuff and then as killer drop a library
