Drew decided to put the strength of the blue/white Delver list on the line with more and more decks packing new Avacyn cards. You can also find some commentary on a version of Drew’s list in one of our new FNM videos here. (The deck in the video and the one here are slightly modified by a couple cards but the key components are the same)
Drew's Blue/White Delver
| Creatures (14) 4 Delver of Secrets 4 Geist of Saint Traft 4 Snapcaster Mage 2 Invisible Stalker Sorceries (6) 4 Ponder 2 Gitaxian Probe Instants (15) 4 Mana Leak 4 Vapor Snag 3 Thought Scour 2 Mutagenic Growth 2 Gut Shot Artifacts (4) 2 Runechanter's Pike 1 Sword of War and Peace 1 Sword of Feast and Famine Lands (21) 4 Seachrome Coast 4 Glacial Fortress 3 Moorland Haunt 9 Island 1 Plains | Sideboard (15) 2 Dungeon Geists 2 Phantasmal Image 2 Timely Reinforcements 2 Celestial Purge 2 Ratchet Bomb 2 Dissipate 1 Negate 1 Divine Offering 1 Revoke Existence |
Doing a complete 180 degree turn from Stefano’s list last week with no main board rares, Aaron decided to show everyone that those cards sitting in the rare and mythic slot can do more than pull their weight on the table. We hoped everyone liked our new prize payout for FNM last week and keep an eye out as Drew and Dan will be putting up some commentary on some of the games from our feature matches last Friday as well.

FNM Video Match Reviews
In an effort to provide our customers with not only the best prices and best prize support we decided to up the ante. In addition to posting the winning deck lists from Friday Night Magic, we also wanted to provide you with something no other local store does, and that is commentary and strategy discussions from our own FNM matches. Once a month (at least) we plan to record one featured match every round of FNM and then have Drew and Dan provide commentary on their observations of the match. We will bring in other folks to talk about things, whether it is their deck choices or decisions they made to keep it fresh and exciting.
