"Magic the Gathering" Deck Tech Blue/Black Pike (01-21-2012)

[jghost25]

have you tried it againts w/u delver? what is the result?

[198link]

why you no play gut shot?!?!? and the deck with black is cute, but it's world's better with geist.

[dingy64]

have you tried to use divination over altar's reap

[GrandSunGod]

I just built that deck and I'm running 3 lilianas

So far I havnt had any problems with mana or speed, the sacrifice effect of lilliana single handedly won a match against mono red.

[Classikat1991]

[ZanbatoVizard]

At the start I hear the sound of a grinder lol.

[KlotzProductions]

@ZanbatoVizard I think you hear the dogs collars. They were laying on the floor right behind me.

[battlexon]

Altar's reap seems a little odd since you only have 3 targets to plus off of it, but this still seems like a really fun deck to play.

[iknowbetter]

is it me or does this guy sounds like eg.idra?

[GabeSourisRex]

Hey Kevin if I sent you so game play could edit it like your game plays?

[KlotzProductions]

@GabeSourisRex I really don't have the time. I spend all my time editing the footage I do have.

[Flumpor]

What do you think of Black/White Pike after next set with Sorin, so pumping out those little Creatures and make them big with Pike. Well I will try to play it ^^.

[Vilfgaar]

I checked the deck playing it on Cockatrice. I owned Grixis Control! This deck is awesome.

[TheStarfox567]

Nice video klotz but I'm still dissappointed with the stagnation of standard at the moment. I hope DA makes things interesting again.

[Mr04CLOVERS]

Pike decks good! :D

[destructorv2]

That deck looks badass, lol. I'd say keep one lili and one gut shot unless it's wolfrun. Or any big creature deck

[JuggaSic]

Think i might try Gruesome Encore in my monoblack midrange....

[Charredeggs]

Ever think about replacing snapcaster mage with blighted agent :O I feel like unblockable infect would be good in this deck

[superscrolls]

THANK YOU FOR DOING A DECK TECH!!!!!

[shadowofthewarriors]

Hey. Klotz. Make 500th video something special, maybe 3 videos in 1 or something.

[thegeni3]

Omg I knew i recognized tyler winn from somewhere

[KlotzProductions]

@thegeni3 This isn't Tyler... however Tyler does play at the shop.

[Dguo]

@KlotzProductions I think he means he recognized the name because he remembered his name from the Top 8 that Greg said he made it to.

[thegeni3]

@KlotzProductions Yeah, I know but at 0:52 he said tyler was at the tournament and I when I saw the list of players I remembered Tyler Winn, but I wasn't sure from where.

[TheHeartlessFate]

Curse of death's hold the bain of my tempered steel deck ):

[mickmars420]

everybody was surprised when i used altars reap too. i only run 10 creatures. 4 skeletons, 4 snapcasters, and 2 grave titans. for throwing it together randomly on thursday, i was really surprised to go 2 and 2 for fnm. i beat solar flare and w/u humans in playtesting.

[Alcarin1159]

Great decktech!!

[GamingRecreant]

I have Blighted Agents instead of the delvers, I don't know if it's good or not. It's either I pressure them with infect and life, or just plain damage. Any thoughts?

[SoundBoyJK]

@GamingRecreant If you play infect creatures instead of Delver you should be playing an infect deck. It doesn't make sense to "split" normal damage and infect damage to your opponents... unless you're playing wolf run. Hey, great deck tech Kevin and that's a great deck btw.

[Recreantt]

@SoundBoyJK Yeah, I already play U/B Control Infect. I just don't have Snapcasters, I really don't have $100 to spend on them, currently focusing on other decks.

[DontFearGrim]

Probably the only thing I don't like about this deck is the fact that the snapcasters put the spells into exile making the Pike a little weaker even though that's not really that big of a deal. But other than that this deck seems like a lot of fun. I love these deck techs.

[TheModerNizer]

@DontFearGrim only 4 spells tho, and it is actually really handy.

[WUBWUBWUBWUBSTEP]

Has he ever used Vapor Snag to bounce his Snapcaster? I feel like that is something that was overlooked when you guys were talking about synergy with the cards.

[mickmars420]

@WUBWUBWUBWUBSTEP i have a deck similar to this and i did that during last nights fnm.

[WUBWUBWUBWUBSTEP]

@mickmars420 pro

[BossMan4714]

I want it inside me.

[TheCrazygeveze]

nice

[ertert90]

Fantastic, i was gonna ask about this

[Leonidus96]

Great Job!
