Lands & Lockets



A fun deck I've been enjoying in Arena's Casual Best-of-One mode. This deck is centered around kicking Josu Vess, Lich Knight and attacking with an army of menacing tokens. If that plan doesn't work out this deck still has a handful of alternative threats to work with.

Spells & Artifacts

Provides some scrys to improve my draws, mana to kick Josu , and card draw to replenish my hand.

-

Golgari Locket

Additional ramp and gate-game fuel.

-

Cast Down

A cheap kill spell.

-

Status / Statue

A flexible removal spell to destroy nearly any problem. Status specifically is handy against hexproof threats.

-

Assassin's Trophy

The most efficient removal spell ever printed. Only sticking with it as a 1-of. The ramp they provide opponents when used early-game can be potentially devastating.

-

Find / Finality

Find grabs fallen threats. Finality sweeps away armies.

-

Vraska, Golgari Queen

Provides card draw, removal, and the threat of a sneaky win.


Grabs fallen treats from the graveyard.

-

Zhalfirin Void

A bit of scry to smooth out draws.

Updates Add

2 Grow from the Ashes -> 2 Golgari Locket

1 Assassin's Trophy -> 1 Vraska, Golgari Queen

2 Evolving Wilds -> 2 Memorial to Folly



The two remaining Grow from the Ashes weren't doing a whole lot anymore, and drawing them late is terrible when I need threats or removal. Replaced them with Golgari Locket to still have the early-game ramp, but with more late-game fuel.

-

Assassin's Trophy is a removal spell I never want to see in my opening hand due to the tempo boost it can give my opponent in those crucial first few turns. Dropped one for Vraska, Golgari Queen. She provides card draw and removal in addition to an alternative win-con.

-

I now possess a full set of both Overgrown Tombfoil and Woodland Cemetery and can finally start dipping into more utility lands. Cut the Evolving Wilds for two Memorial to Folly to give the deck more ways to recur threats.
