So, after I play this at FNM, it definitely does require some changes. Not sure if that change should be smaller, faster creatures, more draw, or more counter magic.

from my experience at FNM you can't have enough counter magic to control the board, so much dig, or Inkmoth Nexus that can't be countered. so smaller faster creatures is my humble opinion.

when u have the chance the 2 downyard should be switched with more inkmoth obviously but i never argue with budget...the thing is MBI is quite successful because of the addition of Lashwrithe , which in this case cant be applied..since i dont think u have problems getting out a t3 crusader/lil since u have em both why not lean a tiny tad bit more to black and add in the all amazing [whispering spectre]..great vs.any deck exept flare really..+1

I actually had Whispering Specter in here originally, but it was never useful for me. I never had reason to sac him for his ability, and otherwise he was just way to expensive to be a 1/1 flyer. The only game I ever had him be influential for me, was when he was the only creature I managed to get out, and I had a Sword of Feast and Famine on him, for the win.

Evasion is the big thing right now. So I had the big choice of switch him out for either Blighted Agent or Plague Stinger , so I went for the unblockable.

This looks really fun to play and pretty solid in general. I like the ability to bring back your crusaders in vast supply to your hand after ditching them to the graveyard. Not bad. +1

Is it just me, or does deleting comments due to updates kinda piss anyone off?

Well, it doesn't actually delete them. They're "stored" right now. And eventually, there's going to be an update to the site that will let you go into the update that chunked the comments, and view them all.

But yes, I don't like that I have to update and chunk at the same time. But, on the other hand, I do like cleaning up the comment sections on my decks once they start to get a little lengthy. Had to do that a bunch of times on my The Colossus of Death deck, just to keep things from getting out of hand.

That's true, bit i do hate on new decks where you make an update, and comments aren't gone, but it is just easier to scroll down and see them. I think they should have a store button next to the remove button on a comment just so the ones you don't need, but you also want to keep them, you can just store them like you do.

And nice deck by the way. +1.

Thank you, squirrelking98! I just wish it won a little more often.

That's how most of us magic players feel about our decks. Especially one that costs 430$. Haha

I still say my "Tezzeret-Infect-Control" is better.

One of my buddies plays a similar deck to yours, tommyg2583. My problem, if I never really been into playing artifact heavy. His deck plays pretty well -- I've been him get turn 3 wins out of it, because he added in Mutagenic Growth .

Haha... I was drunk last night when i posted that. I'm just jealous every time i see that a new comment has been posted its always on your deck and not on mine. I'm all for infect domination! I think the combo of card:Ghoulcaller's Chant and Forbidden Alchemy (althought awesome) just takes up too much room in this deck. 2 Ponder and 3card:Tezzeret's Gambit would be all the draw you need... plus that gives you 2 more cards to add in. Try it out!

I actually tried that out in the initial build on this deck, before I even posted it up on tappedout. It just didn't seem to flow well for me. Don't know why.

This deck is a bit too rich for my wallet, but totally rapes. Good build if you have deep pockets for sure; probably the best unlimited cost standard deck I have seen

I was fortunate enough to trade for a lot of what's in this deck, like the Liliana of the VeilMTG Card: Liliana of the Veils and Sword of Feast and FamineMTG Card: Sword of Feast and Famines. Though, I don't really play green, I don't play red often, and I'm not real big on artifact heavy decks. So, I have a lot of stuff that's usually fairly easy to trade off of me.

GobHoblin says... #18

I'm the opposite, so I imagine that we could do some serious trading in the future lol

Lol, right on. There's not much I'm looking for right now, beyond the almighty Sorin, Lord of InnistradMTG Card: Sorin, Lord of Innistrad, but I'm kind of waiting for his price to bottom out. He's so not a $60 planeswalker.

I tried it, once upon a time. Unfortunately, it was never terribly reliable. I've (no joke) had games that I won through attrition with Nephalia DrownyardMTG Card: Nephalia Drownyard, with no infect on my opponent. At that point, Corrupted ResolveMTG Card: Corrupted Resolve is a dead card to me.

well then it looks like you've got this all... (puts on sunglasses) under control. YEEEEEEEEEAHHH!
