Creature (2)


Rat deck! Inspired by Rat Pack, Sinatra's back, it's pretty straightforward. Twists include Ninjitsu and Rat Pack's fun ability. Because of Rat Pack's discard side-effect, I added cards like Call to the Netherworld.

I play-tested Door of Destinies, Coat of Arms and Obelisk of Urd since the deck is mostly Rat creatures. Door of Destinies doesn't work right when it comes out (no counters on it yet) and doesn't benefit from new Pack Rat tokens because it specifically says "when you CAST a spell of the chosen type", Coat of Arms is good but the 5-drop slot is hopefully occupied. Obelisk of Urd wound up performing best because you can cast it on turn 4. Turn one: Drainpipe Vermin. Turn two: Pack Rat. Turn three: Pack Rat token. Turn four: Convoke Obelisk of Urd.

Edit: I removed The Obelisk and put in Ravenous Rats.

There is a discard sub-theme in the deck - cast Ravenous Rats and when they do combat damage, Ninjitsu them for Skullsnatcher or Okiba-Gang Shinobi so you can cast the Ravenous Rats again and keep the discard going. Then you can use Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni to put a creature from those discarded cards into play for you!
