Great video thanks. Much much agree on the splashing of white. One thing that frustrates me is when people think they are geniuses when they comment a mistake you made THAT YOU YOURSELF ACKNOWLEDGE in the video that you made. Guys- He knows! haha.

Marshall – great commentary as usual. I think people are forgetting when you played this game (after a layover and trip back from out east because of the storm named Sandy). Not at your peak obviously, but not too shabby. You continue to teach even when your plays aren’t stellar. Can’t wait to see you when you are smoking at RTR!

M2G3 was painful. It was clear your opponent’s card quality was higher than yours. Devastating his board early with the lure/scavenge creature and pump spell was the way to go. That would have left you with 4 power on the board, that scavenge creature in the graveyard. and your opponent on a significant clock scrambling to stay alive. With the alternative being to let your opponent go through his deck at his leisure finding answers and threats, well…

“This is the line of play you are looking for.”

You talked about Grove of the Guardian being hard to splash because it is a colorless source itself. This is true in your draft because you didn’t have any gates yet, but in general I would splash it as an 18th land if I had a little fixing.

Draft was sweet, M2G3 not. Attacking earlier with the assassin and utilizing the trample+deathtouch plan would have given you a much better shot at not falling behind.

Thanks!

Nice draft.

I would have most certainly taken Common Bond over Perilous Shadow. I know you said you don’t want to go too deep into the “build around corpsejack menace” plan, but Common Bond, unlike Slitherhead, is a very solid card on it’s own, and really the splash is no strain at all, a gate + gatecreeper vine and you are good to go. I actualy had the oppertunity to play Common Bond + Corpsejack menace, and it’s really, REALLY good. Just think Travel Preparations ( a card I know you love) as a combat trick.
