So what do you think of Archive Trap?

 

I have four of this in my Mill deck. As you said' date=' it's the best mill card in the game. It REALLY pisses people off when you use this right after they use things like [b']Terramorphic Expanse[/b] or Evolving Wilds. I saw a guy lose on his second turn after he used Terramorphic Expanse. His opponent dropped FOUR Archive Trap on him.

So, I was looking at the intro packs for Eventide and I found a few really cool cards. Thos being Balefire Liege and Divinity of Pride.

 

Right now I'm thinking about making my deck Green White or Green Black. I don't think I'm going to do so any time soon since I also like Blue a lot, but I'd like some feedback on what you think would work better for me.

My deck ATM just to get an idea as to what I like and for more feed back on what changes I should make.

Guild: Sad story here, (get your violins people) see I'm a mad scientist, I love to funk with nature. So naturally I'd be Simic right?

 

Unfortunatly it seems everyone is simic.

 

So what is little old me supposed to do?

 

So I am forced to be Boros.

 

NOW I'M THE MOTHERFVCKING LAW!

Color of Choice: I can play all 5 colors equally well.

 

However I can't win, it's not that I'm bad at the game just... remenber the heart of the cards crap?

 

Well it appears cards think I'm a totally douche, I get manaburn easier than... your mom!

 

See it was a your mamma joke and... nevermind.

 

But yeah, I can't get the right cards to win, it totally sucks.

 

I do love the books though.

 

WHY DID ZENDIKAR FAT PACKS NOT COME WITH A BOOK?

Bit more than backstory, if you notice allot of the times they mention the scene and such.

 

This is the whole story.

 

And it is glorius.

 

It has children bond with demon gods, evil science experiments involving fusing super prostetic limbs, really smart goblins, a crazy ass machine slowly turning into flesh with a god complex, a god fairy who divided the plane into night and day with extremly long intervals which alters the friggin plane entirley (like one is nice and midsummer, the other is straight from the horror books), Elves who are complete douches, a Ogre who beats up satan while blind, and much more.

 

 

The series total though.

 

They have some huge plots.

 

I suggest Ravinica, Kamigawa, and Lorywyn trilogies, and Mirridon is a great one too.

 

Dragons of magic is good for backstory, it's a collection of short stories.

Ravnica and Kamigawa were freaking awesome. Personally, I like how the events on Ravnica set the events for Time Spiral sets forward - and introduced us to the CURRENT Planeswalkers. (Don't ask me the details; a buddy told me this)

 

Oh, I have found an artifact that makes sweet love to Allies - Soul Foundry

Hey Nexev, mana burn no longer exists. Reason: Sorin Markov

 

Last night at a draft I pulled Sarhkon the Mad! Also I built a Red/Green deck with the core of it a card that I can't remember the name of. It's one red to cast and as an additional cost you sac X land and put into play 2 Red Elemental Creature Tokens with X/X.

I usually run 40/20 in a deck (40 spells/ 20 land) it works quite well in most cases. If you want help with building a deck or something feel free to post it here or pm me.

 

Hey does anyone else here have an Eldrazi Deck? (I mean eldrazi deck that is all spawning and eldrazi themselves not a deck that is a combo of that and other stuff)

I meant manascrew' date=' mah bad.

 

[img']http://magiccards.info/scans/en/uh/123.jpg[/img]

 

WHY DID I PUT 40 IN MY DECK?

 

WHY!!!!??

 

My guess is that you have 4 Fireballs and 16 Mountains in that kind of deck and you just wanna make thie biggest flaming ball of death imaginable.

Your 40/20 ratio is ideal' date=' but I saw a deck in a magazine that won first place - and it had 43 lands. Not joking. If I can find the magazine, I will post the recipe. However, I don't recommend you try and build the deck - as most of the cards in it are OLD and EXPENSIVE!

 

I have some cards to do it, but not a straight dedicated Eldrazi. It seems like it'd be a tad slow without other kinds of support, personally.

 

Got me a River Boa, so I'm happy.

 

Also made a Red/Black deck all about burn. It's been doing good so far. Only problem is that after it makes it'a push if the opponent isn't dead odds are they are going to loss.

 

Usually a problem with burn decks. Are you using creatures like Ball Lightning(red) and Groundbreaker (green)? They're basically the same thing - a 6/1 with trample and haste that dies at the end of the turn for 3 mana of its color. You can also consider using Uktabi Drake (a 2/1 flying with haste with an echo cost of 1 colorless and 2 green - for 1 green) and Spark Elemental (A 3/1 with trample and haste that dies at the end of the turn - for 1 red). Burn/beatdown decks are brutal and fun to use. I'm working on one right now.

Why would green be in a red/black deck?

 

@FD: Dont forget your Golems' date=' there are some really good ones in mirridion that can be played super fast if you have enough land. Like Dross Golem and Oxida Golem.

 

Get those.

[/quote']

 

Gah, thought it said green. Just got off work and tired ATM, don't hate me for it. If it's a red/black, then I hope that Blightning is being run in 4. Terminate is also a good one, as well as MOST Rakdos support cards.

 

If nothing else, you can make it a red/green/black AKA Jund deck. (Those work surprisingly well)

I don't really like the Golems that much. Even if I did they are on the old side so odds are I'm going to have problems getting them.

If I can get Blightnings I'll add some, but for now I have 4 lightings. Side from that the deck is mostly stuff from M10 to Eldrazi. Some of my fav cards are Blood Seeker, Sign in Blood, and Pulse Tracker.

 

Also another problem the deck has is the monsters are all on the weak side. The biggest monster I use is Butcher of Malakir.

@Flame Dragon - Don't underestimate the little guys. Things like Pulse Tracker' date=' [b']Vampire Nighthawk[/b], and Gatekeeper of Malakir are quite effective. Also, use Coat of Arms with lots of small monsters of the same type and watch them GROW in power.

I have Gatekeeper of Malakir and Pulse Tracker and they are two of the better cards in the deck. Problem is I don't have many of them. I want Nighthawk really badly. Coat of Arms would work since a lot of the monsters are Vampires. And yea, I've seen how big it can make creatures since my friend uses 1 in his elf deck.

Archenemy should be awesome.

 

I promised you the list for my deck:

 

Creatures:

 

3 Avatar of Woe

1 Teneb

4 Lord of Extinction

2 Woodfall Primus

1 Verdant Force

1 Genesis

1 Filth

1 Undead Gladiator

1 Eternal Witness

1 Loaming Shaman

4 Stinkweed Imp

 

Spells:

4 Dread Return

2 Worm Harvest

1 Buried Alive

1 Moment's Peace

4 Darkblast

1 Life from the Loam

1 Spitting Image

 

Lands:

26, but for the moment uncertain. Shall contain 3 Dakmor Salvage, as to work off the Worm Harvest and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, because Urborg + Filth is awesome when a 30+/30+ Lord of Extinction is chilling just about.
