    White for Enlightened Tutor and Ethersworn Cannonist - very interesting.  The cards that stick out the me are Phyrexian Revoker in the main and Firebolt in the side.  What's the reasoning behind those?  Is Firebolt for opposing Revokers?  (And of course I like the Ensnaring Bridges, because I always like Ensnaring Bridge.)
    • Graham | 19-Dec-2013 04:25
      firebolt is actually for deathrite shaman, stoneforge, and delvers creating a source of card advantage.  Revokers are there for things like Lili who's edict effect is a bit rough when you're playing control with a painter out (or deed, etc).  and uses against sneak attack.  could easily be 1 revoker main, 1 canonist main, and 1 more revoker side, but I find that revoker has a lot of game in many matches whereas Canonist is a little more specialized. 


      White also gives you much better access to Ensnaring Bridge G1, which Sneak and Show can't beat.  E-tutor and flip top in response to SnT (and you can easily have a red blast backup if they force) and the game is over.  I'm considering changing the Bridge in the sideboard to a singleton Peacekeeper, as that can be tutored with Recruiter, and provides a different type of permanent in post-board games for Sneak/Show to deal with.


      I wish there were a better option than manic vandal though - Viashino Heretic has been suggested, but I don't like that it isn't hasty.

        The more I look at this list the more I like it. 

        I really like the idea of SB one-of Peacekeeper to grab with Imperial Recruiter.
        Why the singleton Lotus Petal?

        Have you thought about Boil?
        Also, it's really too bad Goblin Replica so so absurdly overcosted.  A Recruitable Artfifact Creature (for Goblin Welder) that can destroy artifacts would be handy.

          Lotus petal helps to make white under a Blood Moon, acts as a 5th Simian Spirit Guide, and has some good synergies with Welder.


          Boil is interesting, although there is no good way to tutor for it with E-tutor or Recruiter.  But some kind of LD spell is certainly a good idea - maybe something like Goblin Settler (saw someone running that as a 1 of a while back)


          and yes, Goblin Replica is so ALMOST what I want, but boy is that a lot of mana.
