Love this deck, as a long time control player, this new set and this deck may bring me back to playing magic standard again, after over 7 years hiatus.
Question about the response to liliana, is it better to let her resolve and assume they will tick up, so you can mill her away in response? or is the tick down just so much more likely that this is not a likely solution to future liliana?
I've been wondering the same thing. I run By Force in my U/R because I feel I get more value out of it. One or two 2/2 gremlins doesn't seem worth it to me
after watching the games I think hyroglyphs (or however you spell that) would be fine as a 1 or 2 of maybe replacing the glimmers. especially if energy isn't as relevant.
The idea of Luis Scott-Vargas considering this type of deck Standard-playable makes me very happy.
"Too much value, my opponent can't even handle it." I'm in tears over here.
kinda surprised not to see any board wipe. especially with sweltering suns just coming out?
Very surprised to not see any sweepers, either sweltering suns or kozilek's return. I personally like 3-4 copies between the main board and sideboard.
that ending made me need to shower

Hahahaha. "Drawing two lands is kind annoying but only if a draw a third land, that would be very bad. Oh. There is a third land, huuuuuum".

Running release the gremlins over by force is interesting, are the 2/2s worth the second X?

great content as always. straight to the point and well thought out explanations. keep posting lsv and ill keepwatching
That commit on cathartic reunion was just brutal
12 counterspells in a deck. Feels like it's been so long ;-;
actually more like 16 because of commit. Maybe even 20 because of gearhulk!
Why was sweltering suns not in the 75?
sure, that seems quite decent as radiant flames is harder to play here
Can someone explain how exactly Torrential can grab the Memory half of Commit//Memory, since that part of the card is listed as a sorcery?
Giampaolo Fini it's one card and it's both an instant and sorcery
Sweepers would be a good addition, and possibly Enigma Drake?
nomoreeightbit enigma drake is really only good if you are playing spells on your turn.

control is back!!!
Why Release the Gremlins over By Force?
HappyCupsInc never underestimate a gremlin
Sweet deck I'm not looking forward to playing against it lol.
i have a similar build but in grixis colors. if you want my deck list i can send a copy.
I'm disappointed by LSV's lack of morningtide negates and original shards block magma sprays.
Savage, counter cathartic and then have it 2nd from the top xD
Gremlins over By Force?
you're usually killing 1-2 artifacts and the 2/2(s) can be relevant.
I forgot that this list only has TGHulk, Fumarole and Tower as win cons. Gremlins can be a tertiary line to win.
No censor?
Never mind I am just blind
I feel for the opponent
I think your opponent fell asleep.. same feeling I get when playing against control
I'm a little surprised not to see Baral, Chief of Compliance in this deck.
Steven Hartman not needed lol
Man, this deck looks so obnoxious to play against. I love it.
taste it ! lol
nevermind, reread the cards, i said bulltshit
False.
