Tarns are indeed going that high. Thankfully, Wooded Foothills and Bloodstained Mire are Legacy legal and less than half that price. Those foreign bridges are worth a good bit.

That is going rather deep, giving up some staying power to have a possible advantage in game 1. It is true that Brainstorm will be everywhere at the invitational but I don't think that is a direction we want to go. How many decks would you really plan to bring it in against anyway? Half of the Brainstorm decks don't require a Pyroblast-style response.-3 Lavamancers, +3 Pyroblast for Invi... Thoughts?

Sometimes they get to cheat it in. He shouldn't live long enough to do much with it.

Every time I see a Stoneforge Mystic, I hear "SHOOT HER!" in my head.Sometimes they get to cheat it in. He shouldn't live long enough to do much with it.
In a pinch, Khaos' beard can help turn this around.
I rarely skip a Khaospawn wall of text because I know there is always piss at the end of the rainbow.

I only kill her on sight if I have a Searing Blood or I don't have a Smash on hand to take out what it brings in.

I certainly give it a lot of thought. That card can shut down the rest of our removal.

Aether Vial > stoneforge mystic > batter skull. Batterskull was out on T4 (he was on the play, I was on mull to 6).
Games don't always end quickly. With 20 -21 land, floods happen frequently.
Sword of Fire and Ice raped me in one game too. I think smash to smithereens is probably a good call, but I still want something to replace flame rift with.

Looks like a bit of one which is odd since the two precon decks give you 95% of what you need. I don't think Magma Jet has any place in a Legacy deck. The rest is reasonable but I would take Flame Rift over Skullcrack and find room for Sulfuric Vortex somewhere in the 75. The Pyroclasms feel a little off as well since he has Pyrostatic Pillar already.

While they do technically, the purpose of both is to punish opponents for playing cheap spells. One does it before the creatures hit the board, one after. Elves is the only deck where I could see both being particularly useful and I don't think we have the sideboard space to run both.

That is reasonable. I am experimenting with Pillar right now since I didn't have it in my 75. I just brought in Searing Blood and Ensnaring Bridge.

There is a stock 75 on the first post for fetchless as well as a few ideas for sideboarding. I know there are a few posts in the thread for versions that run fetches and Lavamancer.

Legacy decks are often a bit of trial and error to match your local metagame. It is much more difficult to get a "forum approved" version of the deck because of that. Purp's 75 in post 4 is a good start for a "fetchful" deck. I would move to 9 fetches/10 mountains. I also have a list in post 21 tuned to my preferences. Most of our decks will be within a few cards of each other since at least 30 of the spells are must-haves.

You only have 59 cards. I am not sure about the main deck bridge but if you think you need it for where you are going, I can't say that I don't understand. You are taking a risk with not having any graveyard hate though. I don't know how popular dredge will be at the invi but it is a rough fight without backup.

Either would work. Macabre doesn't cost life and hits 2 cards but can only hit what is there. Extraction costs 2 life (irrelevant in a dredge fight normally) and only hits one card but it rips it from their deck.
