THIS, IS, SPAR~MADNESSSSSSS!!!! - Drink With Moderation. (Yes I do own all these cards, foil)
This was originally my 2017 standard vampire deck with sets being: BFZ/OGW/SOI/EM/KLD/AER
**Discussion archived as it rotated out of standard.
-----------------------------Intro to Madness-------------------------------------------------------------
So here We are aiming at a balanced deck of aggro/Control/Card draw. Playing Madness isn't all about going all in and discarding stuff to have X effect. There is no clear path ahead no road to follow.
I think madness is one of the best mechanic of MTG and there is A LOT of stuff going on when playing a madness deck. You need to think about how you are going to play each cards, which one you are going to madness or not and how to make the best use possible of EVERY damn point of Mana used. Because if you don't, you will lose no matter how good the deck is.
Madness is probably the hardest mechanic to use in mtg and the one that will make a HUGE difference between a good player and a bad player. I'm not that great a player Tbh.
-----------------------------My cards and me--------------------------------------------------------------
Card draw: Asylum Visitor & Tormenting Voice (Now replaced by: Smuggler's Copter)
Control: Fiery Temper - Lightning Axe - Bloodhall Priest with empty hand.
Wincon: Fiery Temper & flyers
----------------------------------How to Drink with Moderation--------------------------------------------
This deck is all about tempo, You need to hit your curve or you'll have trouble staying in the game, which is a good reason why it's unplayable competitively.
Turn 1 Insolent Neonate or Falkenrath Gorger
Turn 2: Smuggler's Copter or
heir to falkenrath
or Key to the City
turn 3: Can be literally anything in the deck.
----------------------------------------Weakness----------------------------------------------------------
Every deck as weaknesses and this one is no exception.
To name a few, You need to win before the big creatures hits the board, if you don't have the removal required to destroy them, it's pretty much game over (god bless flyers)
Liliana, the Last Hope. Most of our creatures have 1 thoughness so liliana is a bitch.
Mass damage, Mass Removal, obviously.
------------------------------------------The End--------------------------------------------------------
