Dorans Infection

Modern*

saffell


Revamped livewire lash infect deck. Livewire is important to steal wins, it along with groundswell or a kicked vines does 9 poison, does 10 with the crusader.

Reliably goldfishes on turn 4, plus should have reasonable resistance in real matches with vines, emerge unscathed, and inkmoth.

Also has reasonable evasion with the plague stingers, and the emerge unscathed, but the ability to turn an unblocked inkmoth into 9 poison easily.

There's some tweaking to be done, not sure how much I can tweak the mana base (preferably down) as I'd like to have all 16 instants, and all 16 infect creatures. That would leave 20 lands no counting inkmoth, it might work, especially if you're counting on a turn 4 kill.

Deck is weak to removal, crusader, lash, emerge unscathed and vines all help with that. The myr dodges GFtT and everything else except priests dodge doom blade. Priests and crusader can eat a bolt, and the priests can defend as well, letting you win an attrition match until you can alpha strike.

I left out skittles, hand of the praetors, and vat mother because the goal is to win on turn 4, and while they're all good, they're slower than this deck is going for.
