I got thisdeck idea from reading this article:

http://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/budget-commander-talrand-sky-summoner

It looked pretty cool, so I went and made most of it. My first version started off as "expensive blue cards I own", so there is still the remnants of that left over in the deck . I guess I need your help getting rid of that too...

My NEW goal is to make the BEST worst deck mono blue has ever seen!

What does this mean? I see decks trying to be bigger, stronger, faster no no no. I want smaller, weaker, slower. I want to see what are the least efficient cards I can play while still being reasonably competitive (at least in my meta, more on that later). My deck right now wins at my LGS so I can start trimming the fat...muscle? ...I don't know.

My meta is pretty diverse but not that cutthroat. We have a lot of new players coming in to test out EDH and we have the regulars. The regulars play one of these decks on any givin occasion; Slivers , Mono red Kranko or Feldon (this ones pretty competitive), Mono black-GBx midrange, BANT blink, Mogis Enchantments, U/G in all its forms, Naya aggro, boros aggro, Xenagos, God of Revels big beats, Kaalia, Mono green either ramp or elves. And every now and then a competitive player comes to practice before the EDH tournament at the store at the other end of the mall...I never want to let them win...ever... for them I have seen mono black combo, mono green elves and eldrazi and mono red Deretti.

I want to keep working on this deck to make it as weak as it can be but still win. I think that is a fun idea. But it has to still win that's the challenge.

Polymorph is a really fun card with this deck. Im trying to find other bombs to change my drakes into outside of Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur and Tidespout Tyrant they seem too good.
