This deck is all about Persist. Persist allows creatures to keep coming back for more, albeit a bit weaker. But once you add in
Melira, Sylvok Outcast
or
Heartmender
those babies just wont stay down. You could just run this as an aggro deck but the true wincon is the Melira, Sylvok Outcast + Murderous Redcap + Viscera Seer
for infinite damage. You could also replace Kitchen Finks for an infinite life combination.
This deck typically seems to reach the wincon around turn 5-7. But of course that can be delayed with removal, bounce, and burn. But because of persist you typically have some board presence none the less as you dig for that combo.
I typically try and keep my decks budget friendly... but with the necessity of Chord of Calling to find those lingering cards for the win the price skyrocketed. I could add Green Sun's Zenith but then it would technically be illegal for modern. Also, that is only good for fetching green creatures. Price was also why I removed Abrupt Decay and added Naturalize with Go for the Throat for all my removal needs.
I have a number of seemingly random cards on the sideboard and maybeboard. I mostly use that as a place holder for other paths the main idea of this deck could go to.
(for example: this deck could be Jund and add in Scuzzback Marauders and
Furystoke Giant
or
I could add some blue control and add use River Kelpie to mine my deck for the cards needed to win
or
go for Junk add another sac options in Cartel Aristocrat and a lategame powerhouse in Twilight Shepherd)
As with all my decks, they are mostly for fun. I typically do not compete or have the funding to gather the cards I covet. Just dreaming up combos and fun gameplay. But still, Any suggestions, comments, upvotes, or whatever are always appreciated.
Thx
