I've been playing a UB version of this deck on xMage and it always seems it's ALMOST there. I can't quite put a finger on what it's missing. Here's the list I've been messing with online. I like Fleetwheel Cruiser since it's basically a second set of Reality Smashers. I know it's not perfect and sometimes it just doesn't get there, but other times when you curve out and realize Eldrazi are still a thing and are tough to beat. Open to suggestions. Deck building has never been my strong suit.
Been a while since I've posted.. Deck is pretty dumb as is and can go off on T4 fairly regularly. Added in Trophy Mage but would like to add a Walking Ballista... Also wonder if there's a way to squeeze in maybe a little more card draw somewhere to help avoid top decking later in the game. Thoughts?
Dug this deck out and played 3 games with it. Forgot how degenerate it can be. Won 3 games in a row, all different ways -- Bitterblossom/Contamination lockout game 1... Game 2, Altar mill... Game 3, Nim Deathmantle with life drain. I haven't updated the deck list since Oath but I can't even think of anything new that's really worth adding into it. I should update my deck list online..
Using Clone to copy Imperial Recruiter FEELS like cheating.
All good points. I think right now, I'm going to go try:
- Trygon Predator + Walking Ballista
- Jace, The Mind Sculptor + Jace Beleren
- Kessig Wolf Run + Mikokoro, Center of the Sea
- Rhystic Study + Slithermuse (or Sandstone Oracle)
And, potentially:
- Pestermite + Prime Speaker Zegana
Although I like having Pestermite, Deceiver Exarch, Zealous Conscripts, and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker all available. We'll see.
