I stated yesterday here that I was going to attend a Legacy event for the first time since forever. Well, this was the main deck that I sleeved up on Sunday night. Might’ve been foolish, but it didn’t actually cross my mind that the banning announcement was today.
Castlevania (“Burg” is German for “castle”, get it?)
4 Flooded Strand
3 Polluted Delta
2 Misty Rainforest
4 Wasteland
2 Tropical Island
2 Underground Sea
2 Volcanic Island
4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Tarmogoyf
1 Snapcaster Mage
4 Brainstorm
4 Ponder
3 Dig Through Time
1 Sylvan Library
4 Daze
4 Force of Will
3 Spell Pierce
4 Lightning Bolt
2 Abrupt Decaye
So yeah, it was probably pretty broken anyway, and I can’t say that I’m bitter. In my humble opinion, OmniShow was a lot better at abusing Dig Through Time than Delver ever was. It’s a shame, however, that the deck looks like a blast to play. I guess I have some re-thinking to do for Saturday, huh.
What do you think of the new bannings? Leave a comment!
