[Deck]-Keeper - Tournament - (probably unpowered) Unkownmeta

[amuraivel]

Hello,

1st. I did use the search function.

2. I would like to discuss decklists for Keeper for a completely unknown
metagame.

3. The metagame has most likely little to no power.

4. I have everything except the Lotus--what is the best substitute...Please don't tell me playing Keeper is not possible without it.


I have looked at some the of the new decklists using Stifle, 2 Scrying, 3 Brainstorms, etc.  

But I have noticed that Keeper has given up some of its versatility for redundancy.

My question is basically:

Is Keeper's new form intrinsically good, i.e. worth 'net decking, or is the new Keeper a pure product of a new metagame?

My advice to you is that if you can't instinctively answer those questions already, Keeper is not something you want to sit behind for several hours.

I recommend Hulk.  Seeing as most builds are replacing Sol Ring with Mana Crypt now, you could just run both and no Lotus and it would still operate fairly well.

Keeper is one of the few decks that is impossible to netdeck.  Sure, there could be a general form for the deck, but the only way to succeed with the deck is proper metagaming.  Every Keeper player will tell you this.
