Glittering Victory

Sideboard


The main way for this deck to win is to cast Coalition Victory. This card instantly wins the game, that is why I decided to build a deck on it. As you can see, CV has only two conditions to resolve as a wincon, and both of them are not so difficult to release. The main weakness of this deck is its speed. It is slow and several decks as agrro, jund, throne can manage the game earlier than me. Nevertheless, it doesn't mean I can do nothing against them. In the first list there were Chromatic Lanterns and Gilded Lotuses, but some time later I had to remove them from the deck, because I needed extra slots for better cards. So, speed is the main problem.As for the pros of this deck, I can mention very fluid style of playing, a variety of things you can perform each turn, enough answers to not fast aggro decks, as six one-target removals and three mass removals, and this is only the main deck list. The best way to save hits until you can cast CV is to cast Fog, which is square in this deck. Also two Snapcasters can allow you to use your dead Fogs.The conditions of successful using CV are reached by casting Prismatic Omen which grants your lands each basic land type, and by casting a five-color creature. In early versions of the deck I was using Maelstrom Archangels in main deck and Children of Alara, but then I realized Children don't suit good enough this deck, because often they made more harm to my game than profit. Maestrom Archangels are still very good, because I can use them to cast CV and to win the game eariler, but difficult cost with 5 CMC made them less wanted to get in starting hand than Transguild Courier. This creature is amasing for these purposes, only 4 colorless mana - and here it is! Much easier, don't you think?Still remembering that the game is usually long I decided to build in some other ways to protect myself and my creatures until the time X comes. Ascetism and Leyline of Sanctity are intended to perform these actions.Another important thing in this deck is its strong Sideboard, all cards of which can be received by Glittering Wish. This grants an ability to answer a few more threats, getting a removal or Gaddock Teeg, which presence may be vital in the late game. For example, its presence on the battlefield protects me from getting it in the neck by Cryptic Command. Of course, Gaddock also prohibits casting CV, but when the time comes to cast it, I simply kill Gaddock to clear the pass to winning.Alas, this deck still has no clue how to win mill..It needs some additional solutions.That was a review of my deck, thank you for reading it!
