OK Chrisb13 but just be aware that this was made as part of a budget building challenge, and might not play that well against other competitive Standard decks.

Good luck and I hope you have fun with it.

I give props for using the flares. I love them.

Thanks, biggieschmahls.

Celestial Flare is one of the most overlooked cards in Standard, but I've used it in most of my decks or Sideboards that have

SomeJustice here's a competitive version Blockage [Competitive Version] I made just for you, that seems to work.

I am notoriously bad at Sideboards, so feel free to change that.

Very nice deck. Will have to build it and give it a kick around against my wife lol.

Aw, poor wife.

Turk_February, if you built the more competitive version, Blockage [Competitive Version], and also built this, Ingest is Best I reckon they would be pretty well matched.

Then you and your wife would be able to battle it out for years to come!

carlingomes I mentioned that this was made as part of a challenge so:

  1. I'm not allowed to change it now that the challenge has started.

  2. For the challenge you were not allowed to use any Rares or Mythic Rares.

Sounds similar to a variation of modern/casual me and my friends play. 15 Uncommons max, as many Commons as you can get your mits on, is fun and doesn't mean a person has to have the best cards ever.

P.s. really like the deck :).

Argeaux Well, from your answer, I believe that you're a girl... I am just amazed, because countless times have I tried to make my girlfriend to play mtg, but all my efforts went in vain...Nothing wrong with you being a girl... On the contrary, tis pretty amazing. Just for the record, there are not many girls playing mtg.

Anyways, common-uncommon decks, are the best! Went in a tournament with a common-uncommon deck and took the first place! The base of every deck(in my opinion), must be commons and uncommon cards. If we can find a better card, with another rarity , that has no drawbacks, then only we can replace our "cheap" cards. Nice deck, I wish you the best, gurl . :)

Kenthris, while I appreciate your enthusiasm for women in Magic, calling me "gurl" is not gender neutral language.

There are a few people on TappedOut striving to take gender out of the equation so we can just talk about cards.

Not all of us are female.


You make a good point that I'd never really considered. There are so many good Common and Uncommon cards.

I'd love to build a deck with just those that could do well at FNM, but unfortunately my skills aren't good enough.

I've made a more competitive version of this deck, using the method you outlined above and replacing some cards with better counterparts.
