Okay I use kithkin you know the one you see at your local states lol. Well the problem is I came in 2nd place at a local league tournament due to a 5c control deck and well I could'nt do anything to stop him and his planeswalkers. I was hoping someone could help me out,

Lets see, Planeswalkers are non-land permanents. No, I can't think of a SINGLE white card that deals with non-land permanents. I bet if you were to type "remove target non-land permanent from the game" you would get 0 results.

HOW BOUT OBLIVION RING. USE 4 SB SO THAT WAY YOU CANT CONTROL THE PLAINSWALKERS

Like the last post hinted at, Oblivion Ring is great against plainswalkers. Other great cards against 5c control to help with their wrath of gods and firespouts includes Kinsbale Borderguard and Mutavault. All 3 of these cards can be run main deck and not really bother the chemistry of any kithkin deck.

Hey Coolcreep, don't be an ass. Some people actually play with real cards, and are not use to using mws to just generically search for things. Either way O-rings for sure, have you considered Reviellark?

Shaun:

There is a way better solution to 5c control in type two...download mws and play a format that isn't extremely gay like legacy instead of 1.x or standard.

And this is in the "General Magic-League Issues" why?

I guess it could be argued that the archetype of 5c whatever dominates the format, but whatever.

I would chalk this up as lazy.

Pithing Needles and O-Rings stop Planeswalkers, but really, lots of small creatures stop Planeswalkers too, so I really don't see what the problem is. I can understand Kithkin losing to 5cc's spouts and perhaps Wraths, but the walkers reallly shouldn't be the problem.

In fact, I'm pretty sure it's 5cc that's the deck that can't deal with Walkers. But whatever.

Engrishskill why are you posting your statements directed at me? I didn't post the topic Razz

I'm actually suprised Lord of the Rings is catching on.
