well, gee I donno how to improve this thing, (i'm card searching and theorizing crap)
May 2, 2014 12:16 a.m.
well Scavenging Ooze would improve the deck im thinking it in place of Nyxathid
May 2, 2014 12:27 a.m.
Hmm, yah it could potentially become much larger, but then you are depending on the enemy having critters. Hm, Scavenger doesn't tap though, that's good...
I likey...
May 2, 2014 1:40 a.m.
yeah and itll remove crads with flash back, dredge, all that crap thatd get past my deck.
May 2, 2014 2:46 a.m.
or tokens? doublestrikers... they are actually a nice assault force. Es specially, Hound of Griselbrand ...
May 2, 2014 4:32 p.m.
that will go in for sure probably im just trying to find some kind of duel purpose permanent removal and something else
May 4, 2014 2:15 a.m.
(right before I go to bed)
YAH, Damnation . WOOOO!! Damn them my friend, damn them all. All creatures will be damned, BWHAHAHA.
Yah... good night :D

Hmmmm, I like the modifications you made. I have play tested it a few times to get a feel for it and it works quite nicely. I am thinking you need, maybe 2 more lands? or 2 more mana ramp. It seems to just barely get by or not at all with mana, especially at start up. (Just to help start up consistency.) Even though your avg cost is a lot lower than my deck, I think you should be relatively close to the amount of mana sources I have for the sake of consistency.

No, i dont want any other mana ramp it has done nothing ,but get in the way of me playing discard spells early game. I should always be playing Inquisition of Kozilek or Thoughtseize turn 1 which means that mana ramp just takes up space in my hand.
(these scenarios are assuming that i have 2 lands on the field turn 2)
The only reason utopia is in there is because it doesnt affected the total sum of mana available turn 2 if i play it turn 2. My available mana is 2.
Bird pissed me off if i play it turn 2 and i cant use it till next turn my available mana goes down to 1.
If im just playing land i dont have to worry about it turn 2 i have 2 mana available.
so its in the way if its anything other than 1 cost non creature mana ramp for the first few turns. Any 1 cost mana ramp creatures tend to get bolted a lot its just not a secure investment and id rather invest in shredding a hand or having creature removal in hand.
May 6, 2014 3:03 p.m.
I am considering more land however ,buttttttttt im ifffy on that.
May 6, 2014 3:05 p.m.
Also i dont like the idea of these seeing as there not permanent ,but these types of little creatures raise the cost of casting spells which you were asking for earlier.
May 6, 2014 3:08 p.m.
yah, thanks. In case you were wondering, I am building a cost increaser deck. But that ain't the one I was gonna surprise you with :D.
May 6, 2014 3:22 p.m.
havent tested it yet i need to. I'm trying to get a side board together for the deck any thoughts?
What do you think this things weakness is?
May 6, 2014 4:19 p.m.
I'm somewhat worried it'll take up space or make me wait on mana to use it and a discard when i should just be discarding card asap.
May 6, 2014 4:21 p.m.
yeah maybe not sure yet. also if I'm playing it the only way it'd benefit me is if i play it with Wrench Mind or Mindrot ,because then i draw two cards it replaces itself and the discard, but if i'm playing it and a Thoughtseize i only draw 1 card. which wouldn't be worth it because then it only replaced itself and i spent mana to do it when i could've just had a different card to begin with and not pay mana.
If i was playing multiple discard spells in combo with the card it would pay off ,but by the time i have the mana to do that my hand is pretty much empty.
If i modified my deck to use creatures like Slate Street Ruffian and have discard spells then it'd work very well because i could play a discard, attack, and then play it.and if the discard spell was wrench mind i'd be drawing 3 crads which is very much worth it.
thats theory though sometimes testing smacks you in the face.

yesterday i was and the day before. The site is odd though first day all i got was discard decks then yesterday all i got was storm decks. Its frustrating for testing.
May 6, 2014 4:46 p.m.
yah, i have been there multiple times kickin butt! when I am on there:
day 1: nothing but blue control
day 2: weird white contraptions and tokens and flicker kikki-jikki-splinter twin garbage -_-*
day 3 nothing but red aggro : except for one blue merfolk deck.
day 4 (today) red aggro and one infect.
It's as if they are specializing in something each day. I kinda like it, because I can work out fighting many variations of one deck type. I can be proficient in dealing with control one day, and then fight off token decks the next.
Though, I would like an option to fight a variety, more randomness..... O well, I don't complain about the convenience of fighting other people on demand. I was so happy when I found out about the site.
kylothian says... #1
But I see how the wording can be taken that way ill change it
