Sideboard


When I saw the full card set for journey to Nyx this is the first deck that sprung to my mind, the idea of the deck is to constantly tap down your opponents creatures using Glimpse the Sun God or Gridlockwhile also triggering all your heroics and swinging at your defenceless opponent. After building the deck and play testing it I was amazed at how well it actual works, most of the games I played my opponent didn't even get a chance to attack. The deck doesn't have much removal I know but gods and planeswalkers don't work if your dead right? haha.

Ok so the main play of the deck the true hero that brings this all to together is the Battlefield Thaumaturge, so the key here is to keep him alive in the opening turns. I never play this guy before turn 3 because then he is vulnerable and easily killed/removed, I usually target him with the Glimpse the Sun God or Gridlock in my opponents turn just before they can declare attackers or when they target him with a kill spell, I also target every creature on the field so all my heroic triggers and my opponents battle line is completely tapped out.

So a break down of the cards in the deck

Akroan Skyguard - cheap aggro flyer, that can get really big and annoying when you keep targeting him.

Artisan of Forms - a must have great for copying my Battlefield thaumaturge, vanguard of brimaz to poo out more tokens or use my opponents creatures against him. She's a lot of fun.

Battlewise Hoplite - this guy is great for setting up your next turns with his scry, and he soon becomes a real big hitter.

Imposing Sovereign - I'm trying this one out at the minute, she's good to stop my opponents playing creatures in there second main phases to provide chumpers after I've glimpsed/gridlocked.

Tethmos High Priest - excellent against removal this guy keeps the deck going in the later game and also let's you all out swing and retrieve what the block.

Vanguard of Brimaz - this guy provides you with the army that you need and works really well along side launch the fleet.

Bident of Thassa - keeps the deck going, the card draw that this deck achieves of this is insane, never have an empty hand which constantly lets you tap down the field.

Curse of the Swine - this provides some amazing removal of creatures, yes I'll turn all your creatures and my 1/1 tokens in to 2/2 boars, sounds good to me!

Glimpse the Sun God - one of the main cards of the deck does everything you need to win.

Gridlock - exactly the same as above.

Hour of Need - all out swing at your opponent and then in there turn ill instant speed turn all my creatures in to 4/4 flyers block and swing for the win the following turn. Or similarly turn your 1/1 tokens in to 2/2 tokens then 4/4 tokens why not!

Launch the Fleet - the army generator need I say any more.

Polymorphous Rush - turn your entire battle line in to what ever the hell you like, its glorious.

So there you go my u/w aggro deck that you can buy for less than $40 and you should have plenty of fun playing with hope you like the deck and Please let me know your thought as the side board could do with refining and all +1's are appreciated :)
