Hello everyone,

I wasn't sure if there was already a topic for the 1 or 2 land Belcher decks, but I wasn't really looking forward to search 63 pages so if there's a topic about it, could some one mention me or move this post.

So, about Belcher. A few years ago, when I got a bit into Vintage, one of the first decks that I saw was Belcher. It immediately spoke to me and now I'm finally going to make. I've got TPS, Dark Times (Unpowered) and Dredge (Powered), so I'm kinda combo player. I've made an Unpowerd list (got 2 Powered decks, 2 Unpowered, just keeping it balanced).

It's BGRU, and here it is:


Everything that has some business with mana

4 Land Grant
4 Elvish Spirit Guide
4 Simian Spirit Guide
4 Tinder Wall
4 Manamorphose
4 Rite in Flame
4 Dark Ritual
3 Chrome Mox
2 Cabal Ritual
1 Lotus Petal
1 Mana Crypt
1 Mana Vault
1 Sol Ring
1 Lion's Eye Diamond
1 Channel
1 Taiga
1 Bayou
                        41

Search, Draw and things like that

4 Gitaxian Probe
2 Street Wraith
1 Yawgmoth's Bargain
1 Necropotence
1 Windfall
1 Wheel of Fortune
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Vampiric Tutor
1 Memory Jar
                        13


Combo

4 Goblin Charbelcher
1 Empty The Warrens
                        5


Everyting else
1 Yawgmoth's Will
                        1        60



Sideboard

4 Leyline of the Void
4 Dark Confidants
2 Hurkyl's Recall
1 Rebuild



So, this is the list. I don't think that I have to explain some options. The reason that I'm not running Tormod's Crypt is that I can pitch a double Leyline to a Chrome Mox for the black mana, same as the Street Wraith, if necessary, I can pitch it to the Mox.

I'm kinda stuck on the Sideboard. What shall I include? I thought of 4 Cabal Therapies because I can remove some counters or Spheres so that I can drop my Belcher without any restrictions but I'm not sure about that. And yeah, well, I'm stuck. Somebody please help?Smile Also, I'm sure there are some options that would make the mainboard better, so please share them too. Just remember that it's unpowered.

Cheers,

Maarten

I suppose it's mostly the thought that this format is just one big Mistake; and not even a very sophisticated one at that.
Much like humanity itself.

I don't wanna be a dick, but that are 2 different topics. I don't play Opal, and I play 2 land. So the only other topic that I saw later on, was that of a topic out of 2008, so, I can move my post to there, but I don't think that will help a lot because nobody responded there.

What are you really expecting? Landless belcher has been dead for a reason. Why include a chance of flipping Bayou when you really don't need to?

This list is pretty much strictly inferior to those (even without getting into the fact that it's an unpowered deck outside of the "Creative" subforum). Also, have you read through those other threads at all? Odds are good that you can find relevant info there, even if the focus isn't for your particular variant.
