I’ve been working on a red aggro deck because I think kiln fiend is absolutely insane, especially when using spells with rebound.
(more…)

The Eldrazi have risen!

The Rise of the Eldrazi Atogatog will be on Sunday 9th May at my place as usual. Games start at 12.00 sharp. Feel free to roll along from 10.30 onwards to start cracking packs and building decks.

It will cost around $30-$35 as usual and I will likely be selling some cheap packs at the end. For Rise of the Eldrazi we will each receive 6 boosters with which to make decks and will be battling for 5 rounds to determine the champion.

Please let me know at least a week in advance if you are coming so I can organise all the packs.

Confirmed:

Scott is in need of two Glimpse of Nature for the PTQ on sunday. His deck doesn’t work without so it’s kinda a big deal..

Ok, so I have this janky mono-white goats deck that I’m thinking of taking to the PTQ but I think it needs some (reads: alot) of work. So here’s the list that I have at the moment.

[cardlist][Lands]
16 Plains
2 Springjack Pasture
1 Kabira Crossroads
[/Lands]

[Creatures]
3 Swans of Bryn Argoll
2 Plumeveil
2 Mesa Enchantress
2 Cho-Manno, Revolutionary
2 Springjack Shepherd
1 Flickerwisp
1 Kor Firewalker
1 Paladin en-Vec
1 True Believer
[/Creatures]

[Spells]
3 Oblivion Ring
2 Path to Exile
2 Faiths Fetters
2 Sunspring Expedition
2 Pariah
2 Mirrorweave
2 Holy Day
1 Beacon of Immortality
1 Sigil of the Empty Throne
1 Armored Ascension
1 Ajani Goldmane
1 Wrath of God
1 Prison Term
1 Wheel of Sun and Moon
1 Pacifism
1 Greater Auramancy
1 Otherworldly Journey
1 High Ground
[/Spells][/cardlist]

The basic idea of this deck is to lay out as many white mana symbols onto the board as possible, and basically stalling the board until you land a shepherd and creature heaps of goats and mirrorweave into Swans, pump with Ajani and smash or Armored Ascension a goat and smash face while laughing your self stupid; land a sigil and creature an army of 4/4 Angels; or until you mill your opponent.

Deck interactions:
This deck has some fun (and useful interactions) that I’ll quickly mention here just so you all can see where I’m coming from with these selections.

Pariah and either Cho-Manno, Revolutionary or Swans of Bryn Argoll:
I’m not really a fan of taking damage, so these little combos make me quite happy. The pariah with cho-manna is a bit of an old one, and doesn’t really do anything more prevent damage, but Pariah on the Swans can make for a very milltastic day (especially against decks with no hard removal)

Wheel of Sun and Moon and Sword of The Meek, Thopter Foundry combo:
Enchant opponent, sword of the meek hits there graveyard, back in the deck == no combo 🙂

Those are just 2 little ones that I can think of at the moment.

Either way, any help making this a stronger deck will greatly appreciated (and if anyone happens to have any cards that they could lend, I wont say no to the help :P)
