I have over 1,000 matches with Depths and the simpliest explain to why these non-white Reclaimer decks tend to fail is the mis-evaluation of how important Flagstones of Trokar is to the deck. I think without it, that Elvish Reclaimer just isn't worth playing. Also, the white sideboard cards are actually better to beat BS combo decks and leaving in ways to protect them is also necessary. Still appreciate posting this content. Love Depths lists.
17:45 Can you cast crop rotation in response to the chain of vapor targeting their mox for wasteland to remove their last land? That would keep them from being able to copy chain the final time to remove your ophe and get them stuck on 3 mana. They would then have to ponder to try to find another ritual but would not have a deterministic kill.
aw those two storm decks at the start were rough but Im glad the deck seemed to turn out well. My paper version actually just recently made mana revisions and added mox diamond so I thought it was kinda funny you mentioned that
I took out cultist bc I kept getting stuck in positions where I wanted to depths at instant speed so it was never relevant and so I also took out Surrak bc the only reason he was there was to green suns off of a cultist reduction EDIT: Seems like youtube won't let me comment the moxfield link or the decklist for some reason it got removed sorry :(
Would Leyline of Combustion work against tendrils? It's turn 0 "interaction" that dissuades storm kills, but I don't know if "copies of a targeting spell" equals more instances of "spell targeting you"
really like your videos but have a hard time watching them at night next to my gf/cat in bed with this „heavy“ intro song :( maybe its a consideration :)
