My version of an Astral Slide deck inspired by my time playing Magic during Onslaught. This card was not expected to be good in the beginning. A lot of hype centered around Lightning Rift, but was not even used in most 'Slide lists at the time. I put it in the deck for old time's sake. The World Champion version included Green for Krosan Tusker, but that's all I remember about that. Since there is so much flickering going on I updated the deck to include Avalanche Riders, which wasn't in Standard at the time of the 'Slide decks.

This deck abuses Exalted Angel's morph to bring her back front side up for earlier beats, but with Wrath of God, Akroma's Vengeance, and Astral Slide, it gums up the game. The old lists used huge Decree of Justice and Eternal Dragon to wrap things up. The dragon can be plainscycled to trigger 'Slide and it comes back from the dead often enough to win the game eventually. Because I added Lightning Rift, it has more teeth in the mid game too.
