Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas

     lets go back to when Tezzeret was first spoiled. at that time everyone and their mothers were pretty excited to see where he would land.people were speculation on if he was going to compete with Jace the Mind Sculpter, KYT said 80 minimum and it look liked it was actually going to happen for a short time.
     now lets fast forward a bit. Chapin creates Tezzeret Build and takes it to Paris, Smi77y is going fucking crazy about Legion of Doom(i fucking refuse to use mind hammer) and i had been testing this thing for a while Sans Jace the Mind Sculpter and had pretty fair results. the deck was even doing to so well as to get coverage on SCG then on the Mothership.
      it was a grand deck and idea that most people hadnt thought of.
now lets fast forward to now...there not much with Tezz now. With the breaking out of Stoneforge mystic then the banning of Stoneforge mystic and Jace the Mind Sculpter, standard took a different route. At one point it looked like Tezzeret decks might actually become Tier decks and Good Old tezzeret might actually make a showing in some top 8s. he is now seldom talked about now and it doesnt look like hes going to get the love that he was looking for... but what happened?
     well for one Standard took a different route thank most people expected. With the Explosion of Cawblade and its variants, Tezz decks were actually pushed to the side. the closest that he saw play was in Brian Kiblers UB infect control build and even so he was a 1 of and eventually he would be removed from the deck entirely. other than Kiblers deck, you dont see much of him anywhere other than MTG salvation forums and that place is a trap for people looking for new decks to play. everyone is awful and they think their decks are the best, be warned.
hmmmm i am going to wrap this up by saying Dump the Tezzerets before the new liliana vess emerges. i dont believe that there is a future for him or there would already be a home in which he would have many victories in. Jace is gone so you cant really say that hes stopping tezzeret and Standard is a whole new world in which anything is possible...except for Tezz. the hype around him was great and its gone now so theres no real reason to keep him. and if you really want to stretch and say that he might be good in future sets...the next set has fucking vampires and zombies...pretty sure they wont be using many artifacts. OH! and Angelic destiny might open up Auras, thats just my guess. stock up on those bitches and aruamancers and ICHORIDS, get those before they hit 15 GETTEM!
