Solid read.  I would have liked it better if my name was spelled correctly (;

now now, come on guys.  Soly isn't here to defend himself.  I don't think that would be appropriate if he weren't banned - so it shouldn't be even tho he is.  

He went out of his way to write this useful primer.  let's focus on that.

Well said, Steve.

The authors of Vintage content offer something to the entire community when they dedicate their time and effort to writing.  There is a bare modicum of respect that should be offered, regardless of whether or not you agree or disagree with them.  These guys should be celebrated, because we all benefit from their efforts.

Cheap shots at Soly might be fun for some, but they're not appropriate, so lets drop them and move on to the content of his article.

Great primer. Best I've read in a long time. Even before RUG Delver came out in the light I was developing a UR deck with Snapcasters, 4 Lightning Bolt etc. I guess what was missing was Delvers.

Funny how I agree on many things Soly says like hate playing situationally dead cards like Voltaic Key and how people overrate Ancestral.
