A very deep and nicely written arcticle, altough I'm a block/t2 player I can learn alot from this one.

Keep it up!

Decent article, although claiming non-blue control is superior to blue control seems wrong at this phase of the format when control-decks are all still under re-evaluation for the new meta. Landstill actually looks rather good, as well as Standstillless UWBASRFASR. But yea, intriguing article, probably very informative for the less Legacy-oriented folk and a good read overall.

Wasn't this an old article? I remember seeing it before. That said, it's one of my favorite articles.

It had to have been written since the banning of Flash went into effect which was on June 20th 2007. Seeing as that wasn't even a month ago this article has to be new.

I just remember another article about non-blue control in legacy with another slide deck so...

EDIT: No, it wasn't another slide deck, but the same "Truffle Shuffle" deck, and it was mainly about non-blue control. It seemed similar. Here: http://mtgsalvation.com/569-what-nex...k-expound.html

That article was written by Finn and this one was written by Andrew Brennan(Aka Aggro_Zombies).

Good Article, I like playing Landstil decks.
This article makes me want to try out Krosan Tusker along with Nantuko Monastery to see if Landstill decks can go in a slighly different direction, giving them slightly more of a beatdown finish.
