Is it really THAT difficult to build a decent Threshold list? The 2 above are at least 4 md slots each far from the optimal build.

The lack of Stifle is interesting.

Duodax, your list is pretty much perfect.

At times my opponents we're playing around stifle, the threat that I could have stifle was good enough(Except in one game, still won the match however). I feel like changing anything but the 2 Fire/Ice would dilute this deck, its so streamlined at this point.

My matches 8-1 Win-Loss

Trial 1
R1 Mono White Dutch Stax 2-1
R2 Merfolk 2-1
R3 Mono Red Burn 2-0
R4 Aggro Loam 2-0
R5 Maverick 1-2 (I played all of this match terribly, I still can't remember how I won a game)

Trial 2
R1 ANT 2-1
R2 BRW Zombies 2-0
R3 RUG Delver 2-0
R4 Maverick 2-0

Nice build, lack of stifle is interesting though. I agree with pg8, but I guess you got one more beatstick instead

stifle is just not good enough. fire ice is better als it is removal which is not dead vs decks without guys to kill

no stifle? nice tempo deck, rotfl.

also, as a maverik player i would ask: engineered explosives in the sideboard? ...the hell?

Explain me why stifle is so important.

Something's wrong, where's Sneak & Show?

---

by YiiiMTG on 2012-08-25 20:37 CET

i played show and tell. the trial before. lost to mav's absurd good draws.

The thing is that you need 4 Stifle and 4 Fire/Ice. You are cutting Fire/Ice and Stifle, the heart and soul of the deck, for Thought Scour. I guess I don't even need to explain this. If you are happy with your RUG Delver brew, I'm fine with that. I'll stick with Canadian Threshold.

Why Stifle is so important? Do I seriously need to list the thousands of situations where I'd rather have Stifle over Thought Scour and Preordain?

Regarding Fire/Ice, the only thing I would swap 1-2 copies for is Dismember, and this only as a meta call.
