Unlocking Legacy – The EPIC Control Part 2
Last month, I unveiled the latest deck I’ve been working on, and my submission to mtgTheSource’s “Create a New Good Deck†contest, The EPIC Control (TEC). The response to the decklist was about what I had expected, which was a few people, mostly those who had seen the deck in action, praising the work we’ve done on it, and a whole lot more people calling every card choice into question. As this isn’t the first time I’ve written an article on a deck that throws convention out the window, I’m used to it at this point.
The reason I picked Dredge was because the field just isn’t prepared enough for it. You have 80-85% against the field game 1, according to pretty much all my testing and everyone else I talked to. There was a single match that wasn’t that big a blow-out, and that was game 1 against Affinity with Fatal Frenzy and Tormod’s Crypt maindeck.
With the release of Morningtide mere days away, we’re all looking forward to some hardcore Lor-Lor-Mor drafting. But how do the tribes shape up now we’ve one less pack of Lorwyn in the mix? Today’s Limited Lessons sees Nick Eisel take a look at the improvements made to both the Kithkin and Elves strategy. If you’re a dedicated follower of aggression, this is the article for you!
