Chewblaha Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) LISTEN HERE, BITCHWADS. I am gonna post stupid advice here that you'll have fun doing. FIRST, KNOW THAT THIS A MERFOLK DECK. These fuckers. SIXTY-THREE CARDS. 23 ISLANDS Sorceries/Instants/Enchantments: SPREADING SEAS x4 MANA LEAK X3 CANCEL X4 PREORDAIN x4 DISPERSE X2 LEYLINE OF ANTICIPATION X1 Planeswalkers: JACE BELEREN X3 or if you're a rich fucker. JACE, THE MIND SCULPTOR X3 CORALHELM COMMANDER X4 MERFOLK SPY X4 MERFOLK SOVEREIGN X4 MERFOLK SKYSCOUT X4 HALIMAR WAVEWATCH X3 Sideboard: Flashfreeze x4 Redirect x4 Into the Roil x2 THADA ADEL, ACQUISITOR X3 Negate x2 Wincon: Beatdown. Main cards: Coralhelm and Sovereign. Mind Sculptor (If you use him). Thada Adel (If you side her in due to abundant artifacts played by the opponent) and Spy there for Islandwalk through spreading seas or the chance they have an island. Sovereign there, not just to buff, but to give unblockable status. If that doesn't work, overpower with Jace (if you have the Mind Sculptor) along with the Coralhelm Commander and Skyscout. Halimar there for defense of larger creatures on the ground. Level 5 of Halimar is Islandwalk and goes from 0/6 to 6/6. Some matches can be incredibly delayed with this. Tips: Keep counters for mainly creature removals and board wipes. Watch for the Day of Judgement and Black Sun Zenith. Always keep a Cancel or Negate (if you side out for it) handy and save your mana for the board wipes. Switch to negates if necessary. Save hard counters (No extra pay required on the opponent's end) for board wipes. Mana leak is great early on, but is easily waved off (most of the time) in late game. Sideboarding: If player is overpowering with control spells and/or red spells, side out Mana Leak for Flashfreeze. Redirect: If there happens to be a ton of creature removal, Redirect is an excellent replacement for Mana Leak or Disperse. Simply Play Redirect and choose new creatures. In case you are playing a control direct, redirect a counter to counter redirect. If player is playing dominant equipment or artifacts (I.E. Lux Cannon or Ratchet bomb) side out two Cancels for Thada Adel if artifact counters are necessary. Negates also work to this advantage. Remember to always play the artifact you exile before the end of your turn. It's free. IF there is a ton of removal/board wipe, negate is also free and cheap for a hard counter. stalling is always a viable option for victory. if Spreading Seas is worthless due to islands and you don't appreciate the free card, you can always swap it out for the two Into the Roil and negate cards. It's a fun deck. Even though it sucks. Next deck for tomorrow: Knights. Edited May 4, 2011 by Chewblaha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewblaha Posted May 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Cosi's Trickster is also usable, just most people won't crack shit out there while you have her out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewblaha Posted May 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Alright. I'm making an EDH deck, but here we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewblaha Posted May 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Knight deck: 62 cards Kemba's Skyguard x4 Leonin Skyhunter x4 Knight Exemplar x4 Mirran Crusader x4 Student of Warfare x4 White Knight x4 Sword of Body and Mind x1 Sword of Feast and Famine x1 Honor of the Pure x4 Brave the Elements x4 Journey to Nowhere x4 Plains x24 Sideboard: Paladin Accorder x4 Condemn x4 Safe Passage x3 Day of Judgement x4 Paladin Accorder is there for change of pace, likely to side out for the White Knight or the Kemba's Skyguard Use day of Judgement when you have two exemplar's out and there're some nasty pro-white creatures out. That's pretty much it for siding it in. Main cards: Cards that can fuck you sideways: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturnine Tenshi Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Damn you. Allies are gone this fall, aren't they? They haven't been in any more recent sets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewblaha Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 No. Allies are dead in October. I can try to make a good red/blue for you, Cyber. Gimme a couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) I want to see a good black/red. Edited May 21, 2011 by Kovach_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturnine Tenshi Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'm sick of the "Proliferate" and "Poison Counter" mechanisms being used right now. They aren't fun at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Rat Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I can try to make a good red/blue for you, Cyber. Gimme a couple of days. Sure. Do it only if you feel like it. I'm mostly interested in what the scene looks like atm rather than actually getting a deck, so no hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewblaha Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Okay. Red/Blue has kept me workin' still. Though I came up with a pretty cool Black/Red deck. Involving some pretty dumb (literally, dumb) cards. Main cards would be Urabrask, Phyrexian Crusader, Vampire Nighthawk, Surgical Extraction, and Phyrexian Obliterator. I don't have it done just yet, but here's a preview for you all. I'm still workin' on your deck too, Cyber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Phyrexian Obliterator: fucking ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
