Re: Oct 2009 - MDV Deckbuilding Contest! 'Worldslaying 102" [Discussion Thread]

I wanted to give the basics of my deck: BASICALLY turn everything into artifacts, make MY artifacts indestructible, and swing with unblockable creatures equipped with world slayer. IF i hit once, and my permanents are indestructible, then it's game over. Because this is my opponent afterwards: Drop a land...maybe something with a CMC of 1...go. Everything's gone again...drop a land, maybe play something with a aCMC of 1...go. GG

I forsee some well placed Path to Exiles being pretty frustrating there

I just took a glance at some of the decklists and a few made me smile. Let's keep the entries coming! And good work thus far!

Got an idea cooking, finally. Let's just see if I can make it work by the deadline...

I'm getting very sick of, every time we see a cool creature - or any card - so many people just go "But it dies to (random kill card X). Yes, there are answers to it. But you know what? There are answers to those answers. That's the beauty of the game. Look at a card based on its own merits, don't just think "Terror, next" or "Naturalize, next" or "Cancel, next". Cause if you think that way, then every card sucks. The game sucks. Even those answers you just listed SUCK.

GET OVER IT.




That is all.

I just revamped mine to include dark rits. i had a dream last night about playing the deck and it didn't have the mana to really play it until late game. I'm thinking about other ways to revamp it as well for mana excel

Re: Oct 2009 - MDV Deckbuilding Contest! 'Worldslaying 102" [Discussion Thread]

Let's create some feedback ...

@George: Hm ... I don't like Gerard a lot, maybe you could change it for other evasive creature and add another legendary thing.

@Cashew: I'm sure you already tested it, but ... is the egg worth 3 slots?

@KlassyReborn: You want tons of mana? Only one word: URZATRON!!! Oh, and Mishra's Workshop could help as well.

@Thomasdm: Why the Isamarus? I don't see their purpose. Also, Mesa Enchantress with only 8 enchantments in the deck ... I see it as a waste of slots.

@diablo0880: What's Rhys doing there? There are far better token generators.

@weirdone13: Shu Cavalry? Hell, why? Use Soltari Priest or something like that, not a vanilla 2/2 for 3 mana. Sure it's (almost) unblockable, but there are much better options.

@Shaitan666: Some of the same that I've said to Klassy: Urzatron would help you a bit.

@Tresserhorn: How about some Defense of the Heart to put your combo out faster?

I know the calvary aren't the best options, but I just kind of wanted to play a cheaper creature with horsemanship for fun.

@ALEX Ryugami I love your description: "Path to Exile: The drawback usually backfires you, but not when you slay the world. Basically, this is a creature and (basic) land destruction." It's kind of like a tricky Plague Spores!

@Streetz-Oh my god! That was top secret!

While Urzatron would be great for acceleration, if I play 4 copies of each Urza land, I'm left with no white mana (which is pretty essential in there), also, the lands are only useful to a certain point in the game (when I play those nasty mana artifacts). I think the 4 Workshops are more than enough there, plus Urzatron is not that solid without Sylvan Scrying.

@ ALEX: Path plan doesn't work quite as well as you'd hope since it says they "may" get the land. But that does just make a strong card stronger.
