This deck is newly built and totally untested, using real cards I actually have on hand.

I'm looking to construct and refine a deck using the power of graveyard returns. I want to be able to use, lose and return creatures from death that are stronger and dangerous. I'm looking to underpin the deck in future with more cards like Korozda Guildmage, Cranial Archive, Corpsejack Menace and Gravepurge.

I'm still gathering the multicoloured lands that I need to fill the deck, too. Working on that separately.

Psychographic profiles

Despite all the different cards and ways to put decks together based on those, players can be divided into three "psychographic profiles", or reasons and methods of playing, with blends being quite common. Mark Rosewater originally came up with these as a way of defining the personalities of players.

• Timmy: Timmy is the player who wants to experience the game for what it is, not necessarily just to win, often playing with big creatures and spells in a straightforward style. As a result, many Timmies are considered to be young and inexperienced, but this isn't necessarily true.

• Johnny: Johnny is the player who enjoys the interactions between the cards. His deck is often an expression of himself, and deckbuilding is often more important than the actual gameplay.

• Spike: Spike is the player who wants to win no matter what. He tends to play to prove how good he is at Magic and is generally the most competitive of the three.

In addition, there are two "card appreciators" who can be classified as psychographic profiles: Vorthos and Melvin. These two aren't exclusive of each other, in fact, they're simply the extreme ends of a similar spectrum to the Timmy/Johnny/Spike one above.

• Vorthos is the person (not necessarily player) who enjoys the story surrounding the cards, and will often pick apart the art and flavor.

• Melvin, on the other hand, enjoys the mechanics of the cards and how they operate.
