In the next couple of videos I actually take the time to point out an instance (which is very common for the deck) where your philosophy would be entirely worse than ANY land. Hang tight, and you shall see. Remember, I am building this on the spot; improving the deck is the point.

I have a few basic philosophies for this format:

1.) I minimize my enters the battlefield tapped lands, esp. in a deck like this. I don’t want to be hoping for land and having to wait an additional turn. This is why no Colonnade, beyond the 5 mana activation, which is entirely unrealistic when you wanna blow up the world.

2.) I don’t play spells that are only strong in your opener. Artifact mana is very much the epitome of this; who wants a Chrome Mox, Aether Vial, or Vinelasher Kudzu on the regular after your first few draws? Granted, this is a slower format, so Ancestral Visions, something i would never usually want to play in 100CS, has a little more appeal to it. Talismans, etc.= I pay two mana for something I could be playing for free. Someone said it earlier, perhaps you, regarding the high land count ratio to low cost spells: ramp into what? Armageddon is a finesse card, and I have found just setting it up and playing right is far more effective than clunking up my draws with chaff.

I have more tenets beyond this, but these are the two relevant ones. Now wake up, Mr. Deeds!

Can we please, for the love of the Lord Above move on to a new query?

What I’m saying is: take out like 3 lands and Tithe (played it in my UW Control for some time and hated it).
Since you included almost all good White/Blue finishers under cc6 I would say: add some more carddraw to actually draw them.
I’d suggest Deep Analasys, See Beyond (it’s really good), maybe Vendillion Clique as a flexible carddraw/”finisher” and maybe the Venser+Karakas combo, which seems nuts in the deck. Excuse if some of those cards are in already.

No hard feelings

So since you insist on repeating yourself like a kid with a head injury, here’s your Pepsi challenge: post what you would play, since you 1.) take this format more seriously than a first divorce, and 2.) are holding on to this paltry argument like it’s the last krunkenstiler you will ever have! I would think, as there have been numerous comments made against your suggestion, you would reconsider… well, that and my thirty five explanations, including the one in the build video. At this point you’re definitely flirting. How cute; someone has a crush.

And could you please tell me what a Krunkenstiler is supposed to be?
I still wonder

I was thinking…you should do a set review for 100CS and Commander on new sets that come out. I would do it, but i think everyone would rather hear your gum chewiing, lip smacking, G1 text beeps(I have one too, not stalking), and KISS music, whilst gaining some knowledge and your insight on new sets in these formats.
