Hey, a callback!

The Razortide Bridge cycle doesn't seem to have broken the game like it's predecessors, so you make a good case that Affinity has been tamed. I started really getting into the game a year after the bans, so my entry into the game was marked by a bunch of conversation about the Affinity bans.

There's an article somewhere by Frank Karsten detailing his Affinity deck, written pre-bans. As I remember, it had Sensei's Divining Top, too. I'm pretty sure he's been playing artifact decks ever since.

I have replaced with Cloudpost and Glimmerpost with Razortide Bridge and Glimmervoid, since those cards are far better suited for this deck; not having the abundant mana from the loci is sad, but there have been too many times when I required colored mana and did not have it, so I am certain that that replacement has improved this deck.

I cannot believe that I completely forgot about Glimmervoid, so I have put that in my deck, in addition to Razortide Bridge.

Hey DemonDragonJ, I think part of the issue here is that you appear to be asking for advice for casual play, rather than advice for a competitive setting. In competitive Legacy, sadly this deck is too slow, and more so if you add Razortide Bridge. For example, with my legacy reanimator deck, I usually win within turns 1 through 3. Other combo decks I’ve gone up against are even faster. Most of the time, you won’t be able to take advantage of Chromatic Lantern fast enough for it to be useful. If your meta is at a low-power level or casual, that changes things and you can get away with suboptimal choices. But be aware that the deck won’t fare as well against a highly competitive meta.

DemonDragonJ your question has been answered, just in a really roundabout way: You’re currently running too few Locus cards in the deck - you either need to run more, or none at all. Which option you decide there will determine whether-or-not you can put Razortide Bridge into the deck (irregardless I think a tapland is a really bad idea for the deck just because its sooo slow, and there are soo few cards in your deck that benefit from artifacts).

I can see you’ve fully convinced yourself the Chromatic Lantern is somehow useful, so i’m not going to persuade you otherwise.

The comment by shadow63 was saying that the Tron lands were better than running 8 Locus. If it’s a straight 12-to-12 comparison then obviously the Locus win-out (there’s a reason they’re banned in modern). The point is 8 Locus is too clumsy to be useful.

I appreciate the advice from everyone, but no one has actually answered my question; I am wondering if I need to keep eight loci in this deck, since I would rather put Razortide Bridge in their places.

Also, wallisface, I like Chromatic Lantern because of how smooth and efficient it makes one's mana base; no longer does the player need to worry about which lands to tap for which mana, and I have been in many situations where either the absence or presence of a Chromatic Lantern was of crucial importance, so I have firsthand experience with its power and utility.

I have four copies of Cloudpost and four copies of Glimmerpost in my partially colorless artifact deck, but I wonder if that deck really requires that much mana, especially since I just replaced four copies of Hovermyr with four copies of Swooping Lookout, increasing the need for colored mana in the deck.

I think that Razortide Bridge would be the perfect addition to this deck, since white and blue are rather prevalent in it, and I plan to put four copies of that land into this deck, but which loci should I remove to make room for those copies? Should I remove all four copies of Glimmerpost, all four copies of Cloudpost, or two of each? What does everyone else say about this?

Have you considered adding Darksteel Citadel, Cascading Cataracts, and Razortide Bridge for a few indestructible land creatures?
