As a fun theme, I used only old border cards from Alpha (1994) through Scourge (2003).

Step back in time to a world of mediocre ramp, decent draw, and a ton of fun! This ended up becoming a pile of good stuff where you steal threats with Rubinia, then sacrifice them whenever you want to. As we play, we slam some big creatures and gain bits of advantage here and there. It’s a great deck to hand to someone looking to play something different, and forces proper threat recognition. I also found out it’s surprisingly good at winning too!

Favorite card: Future Sight does so much work! It’s so much fun to race through each top card and gain insane value.

Estimated deck level: 7/10
