Temple of Mystery in my deck

Deck Help forum

Posted on March 25, 2014, 10:47 a.m. by spyroswiz

I' m running a G/B Midrange deck, which can be found here: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gb-midrange-25-03-14-1/.Since there isn't a G/B scryland,i want to run a couple of Temple of Mystery in my deck, but i don't know if it's going to be suitable in this mana base.

I'm not the best one to say, but, I think that Reaper of the Wilds give all scry needed.

If you don't agree, you can sacrifice some Tempo to cut off 4 forests and replace then, would be suitable early game, where you don't drop important threats, and scry would give you more tempo than a untapped land.

Well, you can get a LOT of other cards with scry. Read the Bones is a fine example, but if you don't want to mess too much with your mainboard... getting some scry lands is not a bad idea, in JOU we'll see the rest of the scry lands, and until then, I don't see the problem in running Temple of Silence s and Temple of Mystery s.

@Eduardogbg: But you can see how scrying early on can help get an advantage, and that Reaper of the Wilds is not able to do that untill turn 4 or 5...

It's a solid change, because you're keeping mid-game scrying and adding an early scry that costs nothing.

Yeah, he could even ramp Reaper, but, of course, he needs to kill creatures too, I forgot that price for the ability
