I recently took this deck to 3-2 at my local card shop city champs...
Round 1: RBU Control 2-0
This deck basically didn't get anything done as he didn't draw what he needed and when he did get his hellkites or aeon chroniclers they were easily countered.

Round 2: GB Elves 2-1
This would of been a tougher matchup for me but his garruk didn't see play in 2 of 3 games and he never saw a nekretaal in game 3 when i had 2 cliques beating face Smile

Round 3: MU Pickles 0-2
Idk if this deck has a bad matchup against pickes or not but I never got any scions in play and my manlands got through a couple times until he got brine out on me (play mistake on my part) even though im sure he had counters waiting for my snake. I basically hate pickles

Round 4: Dragonstorm 2-0
Game 1 he started with 2 lotus blooms turn 1 but he didn't have any ramps to get himself up mana.
Game 2 he boarded in some ignite memories which hit me for 8 with my 2 cliques in hand but after a warhammer on my bird and clique after clique after clique he couldn't play his dragonstorm Smile

. I love Mistbind Clique over dragonstorm

Round 5: WG Control 1-2
I won game 1 basically countering his big spells until i got mistbind out and he couldn't stop it.
Games 2 and 3 I made the mistake of letting crovax hit the board Sad

and when i could get him out of play I didn't draw the snakes to get rid of him so Crovax FTW for him.

I was a little upset about my last minute choice to run Garruk over Psionic Blast but i wanted to see how it would work and he helped me out a lot. Altough a lot of those games I could of needed both so if anyone has any suggestions to make room for psi blasts (i'm thinking 3) please help me out. I also think I should have venser's in main but I don't know what to take out.

Bring the flames and hopefully more constructive comments.

i think s/b u might want 4 thorn, when i played u/g faeries at the win a car qualifiers i went to 2 and didnt loose a match i dont think u need 2 warhammer s/b aggro is a good matchup, u race very well and i like stonewood over garruk, thats all just my oppinion its up to you, and force sb i never wanted to bring in its supposed to be for goblins but idk

you have no draw options, so the 2-ofs (Wall and Warhammer) are the most obvious targets for psiblast. I would rather have sprites than psiblast though. The one-drops are crucial for Spellstutter Sprite.

I think the reason for playing green at all would be Garruk and the big creatures you normally find in green. Otherwise, black would be a better colour for a faerie deck. What about -2 Wall, -2 Warhammer

+2 psionic blast, +2 chameleon colossus ?? or md Force?

Here is another way you can take U/G Faeries. It is a little more aggro than your build but I have had some good sucess with it. It also has a bit of an edge over U/B Faeries too IMO.

What? No Vendilion Clique? Shocked

Seriously it is very strong in any faerie deck. You should try it out.

vendilion is sb against matchups that are already favorable
Which don't mean it doesn't deserve a place in sb

The geekiest and most homo-erotic fight around. Time to pull up a chair and enjoy the spectacle.

Also I <3 pestermite.

i think going green over black with the usefulness of noggin whack and beat down/screwing potential of Earwing, is a grave grave mistake.

Sure you may own 3 Garruks and a set of Snakes and Birds but anything U/G can do, U/B can do it better.

play ub faeries, while it doesnt have the power cards tha ug has the mana base is way more consistent and you will lose many games due to ur crappy mana base.

I just find it ridiculous that you opened a new thread with basically the same list, when you already one with a fair amount of posts and feedback. It is just spam and that is all there is to it. I would you the Mods/Admins would close this thread and establish some rules for this forum.

You clearly didn't forget about the other thread that is just an awful excuse, not to mention if you did forget you should search for a thread first. Did that cross your mind?

I really wish this was a productive forum but it isn't. People get away with FAR to much, not just posting worthless threads. I really feel like there should be some hard guidelines set up and enforced.
