Goyf – Extended Legal this is his list from ?http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgcom/daily/cm75

4 Elves of Deep Shadow

4 Forest
3 Swamp
4 Terramorphic Expanse
1 Vault of Whispers
3 Tree of Tales
2 Dryad Arbor
2 Dakmor Salvage
2 Tranquil Thicket
2 Barren Moor

This is his list but we all know that he hides all of the tech so that we can figure it out on our own. I have went to the trouble for you... So far I have played 20 matches and I am 20/0 yup that's right. No losses. LD, Combo, Control, Aggro ( A bit rough but better with Smother) all played. LD is the best match up and control is good also.

This list is raw!!!

I think think that the sb needs some more work. Any thoughts??? I thnk that a bit of list gain in the SB would not hurt. I think that most of the sb holes are filled, If you see anything that I missed plz reply to this post.

I'm intrigued let me know how it fares against the new builds of ichorid.

P.S. Leyline isn't enough

Seems like deed is very bad with tree of tales and dryad arbor. I understand your want to get a myriad of card types in the yard but that seems a bit too much tempo loss. This is my opinion from just looking at the list. I think that having more LftL would be good too. It is one of the best draw engines in the game ATM and with dredge, seems too valuable to run just one. Also, why no fetchlands? Dakmor salvage seems subpar, possibly a darkblast in the main to smooth out the aggro MU? Would also give you another card when dredging.
Here is the list I think may be a bit stronger:

4 [ON] Smother
2 [AP] Pernicious Deed
3 [DS] Sword of Fire and Ice
3 [RAV] Life from the Loam
2 [PS] Bog Down
1 [RAV] Darkblast

No sideboard and untested, this just looks more tuned to the naked eye. Also, Tarmogoyf doesn't have to have every possible card type in the yard to be a house! Smile

My two cents,
Eldon

I did have Darkblast in the main and it only really worked vs W/B aggro. Smother is just to good not to run. Deed is really good for the reason that you say it is bad. I think that a the lift that it gives Terravore is worth the "tempo loss". Is it really tempo loss if you have a faster clock after Deed? I have not really had an issue with drawing cards with Bob and Sword of Fire and Ice in the main. I may have to say that one more Life from the Loam would be great in the main. I think that I may cut one land for it. FYI Terramorphic Expanse is a fetch land for off color decks. Plz play the list before you reply.
