    Hey Covert, I'm Sr. Morte from that long long control battle. It was a good game, but hard to deal with so much card advantage. Especially when you're stealing my counter spells!
    And hey, not cool making fun of my lack of innstrad cards, I'm a free to play broken dude! lol

    Note for CGB: You actually *cannot* fizzle a Field of Ruin on a Hall of Storm Giants by activating it. Ward is a triggered ability that happens on target, so if the land is targeted before it becomes a creature and gains Ward, the ward doesn't trigger and the land still dies. You can actually Field of Ruin Hall of Storm Giants pretty aggressively because of that and not have to worry about keeping mana up to Field in response to activation.

    I think siphon insight is a throwback the picture to interview with a vampire with kristen dunst and the drunk boys she plays a trick on her maker tom cruise to drink the dead blood that seemed warm. Just a thought as I herd CGB talking about it.

    To best the control mage one must become the control mage. Walk in the shoes of your enemy. See what she loves, what he needs and know what you must do to defeat them. In the moment that you strike your enemy? You will love them. For you have become one.
    This is truly pod racing.

      It appears as though the wording on the card specifically creates an exile state based effect after the spell is cast from the graveyard regardless of whether the spell actually resolves.
      "You may cast this card from your graveyard for its Flashback cost THEN exile it"

      “...Flashback [cost]” means “You may cast this card from your graveyard if the resulting spell is an instant or sorcery spell by paying [cost] rather than paying its mana cost” and “If the flashback cost was paid, exile this card instead of putting it anywhere else any time it would leave the stack.”

    We need a video with this style deck against the new meta of wren, Arlen decks. No answer for planeswalkers unless you bounce and counter. Thats not quick enough. Blood cheif and graven need to be in there because I'm facing a ton of green planeswalker decks.

    Ward is a trigger when the target is announced, if it doesn't have ward right then and there it wont trigger. Giving it ward in response to removal does nothing. So as long as the hall is not a creature when you announce field of ruin, you are good.

    I've been running into the deck in diamond for a few days now and absolutely farming it with mono green (mostly your deck with a few changes on my part).
    It's hilarious to watch them go through all that trouble to get a jespera sentinel or a werewolf pack leader that they're never gonna draw cards off of.
