Imagine that. A standard-legal deck that is 100% competitive in a Vintage environment!

korg33 Siege Rhino isn't even an issue! you just play Islands and their whole deck is ruined!

Stormtide Leviathan would turn your Islands into Islands, making the combo potential ridiculous. But then your opponent would also be able to use the ridiculous Island + Island combo, so it might be a risky move...

Analog_98 As I've said many many times before, to add extra cards to this deck would mean you would have to remove an Island. And that just totally ruins the combo haha

guys, I have some warning for you that I'm surprised didnt come about earlier. If epoch finds this, some bad things MIGHT happen.

anyhow, you really should prepare for the mirror-match against Quicksilver Fountain. afterall, in standard, you can use it as long as you run ALL Island tsp islands to rewind time to when they were still standard. this could also lead to the sideboarding of just 14 [[island [TSP] ]] and a Tsunami to wipe you out. to prevent this I'd suggest [[island [MRD] ]]. afterall, a tsunami still can't wash away metal.

DERPLINGSUPREME Both Quicksilver Fountain and Tsunami have been brought up, but the thing is, if you have problems with people removing your Islands you just play more Islands! I do like your idea about the metal Island's though, something to keep in mind for those who want to play the deck on the cheap!

You should run 60 islands instead of 61 to improve the chances of drawing an island.

For your sideboard I recommend 4 snow cover islands for abzan, then 3 for storm then 8 for the mirror.that's what the pros would do.

What happens in the mirror match?

Enigma64 The game will usually go to a draw, it's just too much power on one table, don't think about it haha

This deck made me question why Islands aren't yet rares. Also, have you ever been worried about someone Dissolveing your Island?
