Introdution

make “Diao Chan” make the Romance of Three kingdom alive again !!! there’s no diao chan deck I cant find on the internet she’s forgotten from time to time so challenging is a fun for me.

This deck creation is comming from my passion on the romance of three kingdom “Diao Chan” is well-knowned in the story as a chaos maker and disunite charactor she uses her beauty to disunite the empire and create the chaos so I’m building this deck according to her charactor ... Chaos and Control.Diao Chan is actually a weak general as she is very weak 4cmc for 1:1 legendary creature with a very difficult ability to use but anyway If we build this deck correctly we are going to have so much fun with it yaaaa with “chaos”. on your party board game so lets make “Diao Chan” from 3K portal alive again and don’t under estimate her I’m playing her with other tier 1-3 generals and alway have good fight during the game very often that other players with higher tier general have to stuggle with me hardly and yes this is a good fun for me.

Playing Stretegy 1.Firstly you will have to understand that this Diao chan deck isn’t a fast KO deck Its more about politic and control or even commitment between you and other players.

2.You must convice and speak.This is very important and make the game more fun also leading you to the victory.

3.The main playing style is to take control of other players creatures and artifacts.

4.Choose what to steal or take control to have the highest impact and see what’s choice do you have for your opponent that you have stolen a creature from and see how what we have in this deck

4.1 Sacrifiece -High Market : gain life -City of Shadows : add a counter for each -Miren, the Moaning Well : gain life -Ashnod’s Alter : get mana -Bloodshot Cyclops : Deal Damage -Phyrexian Alter : Get Mana -Shivan Harvest : Destroy non-basic land -Trading Post : as It says trading this is very useful can return artifact,draw card creaate a token to block or use for some purpose this is very useful

4.2 Steal Forever -Conjurer’s Closet : This will let able to gain control of target creature forever first you need to steal a creature from any of your opponent and during of your end step use conjurer’s closet and target that creature and it will comeback under your control.

-Helm of Procession : You will need to sacrifiece a creature to activate the helm ability you can sacrifiece a creature from the creature you’ve stolen from your opponent or use trading post to create a token or even a token from “Rite of the Raging Storm”

4.3 I let you have your creature back alive but....

-Assault Suit : You may equip it to high impact creature and keep passing around the board hahaha this is fun

-Pariah’s Shield : Passing damage to equiped creature and once the equipped creature is dead you will have the shield back and can equip it over again and again it’s protecting you and very harmful to your opponent in the other hand.

-Sword of the Animist : Hey !! If you attact I will get a land fall you can combo with “Lavakut, the Molten Pinnacle”

all these are equipments so you will have them back once equipped creature is dead.

5.Steal artifact : Yes,we have artifact roober too such as Treasure Nabber,Aladdin,Hijack then you will be able to sacrifiece those artifacts by using trading post or Kuldotha Forgemaster to tutor something like crucible of worlds or any artifact that match with your current situation.

6.Lavakut, the Molten Pinnacle : I’ve added this combo intentively as you can see we have solenm simulacurm,butnish hart or even trading post that allow you to return any of these creatures and reuse them for the land fall also other effecient other land fall effect like Druidic Satcher,Armillary Sphere,Journeyer’s Kite Wayfarer’s Bauble you will not be regret with this land fall as we have extraplanar lens and guantlet of might this is deck they are working as mana doubler espcially we use only snow-covered land this this deck so you will not be sharing the lens abilities with another and the most importent for this combo is crucible of words with arid mesa you know what to do with it right ?

7.Treasonous Orge + Soul Conduit : the orge isnl’t just a mana accelerator but it can also combo with soul conduit it simply works spending mana from the orge to cast the conduit and use orge ability to generate mana to activate the conduit.

8.Hidden Ultimate high impact : I also have added “Dark Depth” and “Thespian’s stage” use Expedition map to tutor one of them and if you have trading post on your BTF you can just simply return the map and reuse it to tutor the other or even to tutor valakut and dont forget wr have Inventor’s fair and Buried Ruined to support this combo.

9.Card draw : This is what cant be missing it’s super importent in any decks to have good draw engine so I’ve added the immortal sun which is good for this deck as it has no any planewalker here and Skullclamp you will get a lot of card draws when you keep sacrifing creatures those have been stolen also there are 2 best card draw like wheel of for tune and reforge the soul this is to ensure that your hand will never empty.

10.Card Filter : When I was building this deck I will make a good deck base first whih inculding mana ramp, draws, card filter and of course Senei’s Diving Top is one of the two powerful card filter(the other one is scroll rack” so this is to ensure that you will have smooth play and smooth card draw.

11.The Highlight !!! : Diao Chan, the Lady of Chaos we have so many equipments to support her not to get target back here we have Lightning Greaves,Whispersilk Cloak,Hammer of Nahzan and Darksteel Plate in many situations you can just use Diao chan without any protections because if there’re so many powerful generals or creatures on the BTF so this little bitch lady will not catch too much attention believe be and the funniest thing for me playing diao chan is to speak as I told you ealier you must speak and convice for an example “Okay my friend let my Diao Chan destroy your 1:1 little elf and you can destroy that big Eldrazi” haha I really love that moment it make me laugh and smile Daio chan herselve is one of the key to victory too so never underestimate her this is politic so you must speak just to remind you speak! (Hexproof can’t protect diao chan from your opponent to target Daio chan back as the ability is resolve as Daio chan herselve ability)

Others -Pyromancer’s google allow you to double your spell

-Stuffy Doll : This is a good fun too choose your closeist friend and maybe attach Priah’s Shield to it hahaha.

-Berserker Onslaught : Damage doubler make your stopen creatures powerful.

-Stranglehold : Striaght ability “can’t search” lets stay calm and enjoy first my friend.

-Rite of the Raging Storm : This make me laugh when you see other people get free poweful token attacking each other except you and you also get this token every turn and sacrifiece it for some goods maybe with Shivan’s harvest or trading post or even Bloodshot Cyclops to deal 5 damage is so cool.

-That Which Was Taken : This is a very useful you vanput countrr on Diao Chan or another important card to let them have indestrucible so Inreplace this with the Soul of new phyrexian which you will have to keep paying 5 to have indes.

-Mimic Vat : This is another useful engine after you steal and sacrifiece other creatures if that creature is useful you can copy them I usually imprint solemn or burnished hart until you have enough land then just look for a better target.

-Why Mizzix’s Mastery ? : I was weighting between Insurrection and Mizzix’s Mastery and the result is thE Mizzix because it has just 4 cmc so you can just target a single card and overload is considered to me as an extra can you imagine if you have 3-4 steal cards in your graveyard but lets consider it as a bonus.

-Why Guantlet of Might : Because I have it haha thats only the reason but you guys had better put gautlet of power of caged sun instead.

-Why not Vandalblast ? : I put it in my maybeboard because you have artifact robbers so there should be some artifacts to be robbed. ^_^ but if you like just find a space for it it’s a good card anyway.

Summary Take control and rob : 19 Sac-outlet + other : 9 Mana Ramp : 18 Card Draw : 4 Land : 35(34)exculding the “Dark Depth”

Mana Ramp 18 is already not slow yes this deck can’t be too slow because it was designed to stuggle with higher tier generals.

Hope you guys like my Diao Chan deck this deck really create chaos on the board if you do t believe me try it !! I like when I’m asking my oppornet “Do you want your creature back alive ? if yes I will give you something extra haha or if you commit not to attack me I will let you have your creature back alive. haha

If you like please upvote me and make this Diao Chan vintage general shine again.!!!
