I saw an assult formation deck the other day with the potential to win by T4. Needless to say I was impressed. However, when I saw it I also thought, "I can top this!" Now with Theros leaving us :'( I've had to update the deck. It's pretty budget friendly, except for the lands. Just switch them out if you don't have the $$$. So, with further adieu, this is the reason why the best defence is the best offence.
The Win-Con:
Assault Formation
: Yeah!!! Giant creatures in the house!!! I love this card, I loved it the moment I saw it. Why? Because it make your opponent crap their pants! One second they're looking at a harmless board, getting ready to win, next second, they're dead.
Not only that but it allows your creatures to kill your opponents creatures. So basically, it lets your Dromokas kill their Dromokas.
The "Walls":
Fortified Rampart
,
Orator of Ojutai
,
Dragon's Eye Savants
,
Monastery Flock
and
Sidisi's Faithful
.
All of these cards are essential to this deck (obviously). everything relies on these "walls". If anyone has any better ideas than what I've already got then I'd be glad to hear them.
The Support
Shape the Sands
: 1 mana for either +5/+5 and reach!? Yes freakin' please!!!
Anticipate
: Cheap and deep (Insert dirty joke here) draw.
Benthic Infiltrator
:Oh my god I love this guy. Normally he's just another crappy Eldrazi but in this deck... just amazing. Drop this guy on T3 after an
Assault Formation
and your opponent will be crapping themselves.
Dragonlord Dromoka
: My finisher - there's no other way to put it. By the time I smack down this old gal my opponent is officially screwed.
Thanks for checking out my deck! Feel free to comment and feel even more free to upvote ;) I need all the help I can get with Theros rotating.
