Say that three times fast! Now that I got you to look at my deck (I mean seriously, what does it take for you people?), allow me to blow your mind, figuratively of course. The primary goal of this deck is to set off a massive mind grind to force my opponent mill their entire deck.
If you can't find the combo allow me to point it out. Equip Kiora's Follower with Illusionist's Bracer. Tap Kiora's Follower to untap target land. Untap Kiora's Follower with the Illusionist's Bracer trigger. Tap the land for mana. Wash, rinse, repeat, build up infinite mana, cast Sphinx's Revelation for the number of cards left in my deck (If I already played a land that turn, I'll cast Sphinx for the number of cards in my deck minus three, then play Urban Evolution for the last three). Play my single swamp, tap for black mana, then cast Mind Grind for billion. Pass turn and you win the game!
Now that we got that out of the way, lets get to all the inner workings of my deck.
4x Kyora's Follower, 4x Illusionist's Bracer:These are my combo pieces. Without them the deck can still win, but with extreme difficulty.
1x Mind Grind:This is my primary win con. This slot could also be filled by a Clan Defiance or an Aurelia's Fury, but I wanted to win my milling my opponent. No greater feeling imo. :)
2x Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage:This my secondary win con. If something happens to my combo, she can come in late game and pick up the slack. She also doesn't mind a little assistance with Illusionist's Bracer.
4x Urban Evolution, 4x Sphinx's Revelation:Whats combo without card draw? Rhetorical question. Urban Evolution helps me speed through my deck and build up a massive Sphinx.
4x Detention Sphere, 4x Supreme Verdict:Invaluable removal. With very few creatures to protect me I need, a full set of the best removal in bant.
4x Render Silent, 2x Syncopate:Need counter spells to protect my combo. Render Silent works very well for this purpose. No baiting out a spell to squeeze out the real threat.
1x Bow of Nylea:This card was a late addition to the deck. This card does a lot for the deck. It gives me life every turn. Perfect for creature based decks. It puts cards that are in my graveyard back into my library. In case someone destroys or forces me discard a combo piece. And against certain decks, kills their little fliers.
This is the base a deck that I'll be assembling in the coming weeks. I plan on having a lot of fun with this one. Happy Brewing Folks!!! Feel free to comment or give feedback.
