Your wish is one of the Deckbox team's top priorities.

Needs Pack Rat.

No worries. Talking about complex rules like this makes all of us better players.

Are you by chance pressing the Backspace button while not in the trade chat field?

Perhaps you need a clarification that cards in your inventory are just that. Cards in your tradelist are cards in your inventory that you are willing to trade. Or is that not what you are asking?

Bump. Just 2 of each needed.

The main reason I splashed red was to try and maximize the effectiveness of Waste Not, which Burning Inquiry does a fine job of. Adding Liliana's Caress further increased the value of discard triggers.

Looking at my list now I was definitely trying to go in two different directions: Hand Control, get their hand down to as few cards as possibile, and Discard Triggers, Burning Inquiry with Waste Not and Liliana's Caress. My guess is that this was the main problem, not necessarily the red splash.

The reason I had problems with blue decks is that, since I was trying to half focus on discard triggers, I was relying somewhat heavily on Burning Inquiry. So when that got countered (despite my best efforts to bait them) I lost quite a bit of steam.

Blood Moon actually did nothing to hurt me. In fact I was running 2 in my own sideboard. The problem that I was running into is the feeling that I need to drop one of the two-drop enchantments T2, which apparently is really important for casting another (or two) discard spells.

That and I played against blue decks. The one game I was able to resolve a Burning Inquiry I wrecked. Every single other time I casted it it got countered, even with a double counter bait before it.

Thanks for your interest, but the fetches are literally the only cards that I am interested in atm. Unless someone is offering a significant increase in value for me made up of other highly trade-able cards I likely won't be interested at all.

Bump

That would be the one upside, the downside is that it's only 1 damage instead of 2 (or more). If you're playing Pack Rats, which you should be because it's amazing against Pod which is played heavily, Mutavault is the better option imo.

BG Rock is basically tons of removal and discard (Abrupt Decay, Maelstrom Pulse, Thoughtseize etc) and big annoying creatures (Tarmogoyf, Phyrexian Obliterator, Scavenging Ooze)

In response to your edit, I don't think running any discard spells in the sideboard will make much of a difference. Tron is really easy to interrupt. T1 discard, hitting Expedition Map if you're on the play. T2, Wrench Mind or double discard hitting whatever and they'll have a tough time recovering. Tron is the reason I play 2 Ghost Quarter. If they're on the play and assemble Tron it can be difficult to come back.

Blackmail, as you pointed out, only shines when they already have 3 or fewer cards in hand. Before that it's definitely worse than your other options as it gives them the choice. Giving your opponent the choice is the reason cards like Vexing Devil are bad.
