This is a deck i have been working on for awhile, and i think that i have finally come up with a pretty solid deck:
The basic idea behind it is to play a creature as fast as possible, take all the damage you can without dieing, while making your creature either huge with boosts, flying with Spectral Flight, or giving your creatures the direct infect damage ability with
Livewire Lash
everything else either helps prolong the game for me to get out the right combo's or saves my low amount of creatures.
Glistener Elf 1st turn, Spectral Flight and swing in for 3 infect second turn, then
Titanic Growth
on the 3/3 flyer for the third turn win.
This is just one instance where i can get an ideal hand for a 3 turn win. With the amount of boost's and the flying ability Spectral flight has and the unblockable that Blighted Agent has just leaves your opponents doing simple addition to realize that they have already lost.
Necropede
is an amazing infect card especially with all of the destroy, sacrifice, and burn cards that are out there right now. He can possibly take out two creatures at once for only two mana.
Livewire Lash
is possibly the best card in this deck. Its synergy with all of the targets in my deck along with the amount of targets out there in standard play right now is just amazing. The card speaks for itself.
Curiosity because i have found that many times i am at a card disadvantage with all of my low costing cards already used. Also it gives another target that can ping with
Livewire Lash
.
Fog because with the limited amount of creatures i have, i need to take a lot of early game damage and sometimes that damage can add up and a fog will give me that one extra turn to pull of the win. Also if your opponent swings in for the win with all of his creatures it leaves him with no blockers and allowing you to swing in for the win. This has won me multiple games.
Swiftfoot Boots because of three reasons. 1. it helps protect my limited amount of creatures if i need to keep one alive. 2. it gives the haste ability, which with infect can be deadly. and 3. it gives another target to ping with
Livewire Lash
Mutagenic Growth,
Mirran Mettle
,
Titanic Growth
, Spectral Flight... they all speak for themselves and have great synergy with infect creatures, and especially, they give
Livewire Lash
almost all of its power.
Blighted Agent, and Glistener Elf both speak for themselves as being amazing in an early game boost rush.
unnsummon because of 3 reasons. 1. because if i need to get rid of a powerful creature that an opponent has, or even just some crappy blocker. (it basically helps clear up the board for some direct damage, especially early game. 2. because if i need to save one of my creatures from a sacrifice, destroy, or burn etc. i can just return it to my hand.. and 3. because it also gives me yet another target to ping with
Livewire Lash
.
Any sort of suggestion with my strategy or cards individually would be greatly appreciated, i need help with my sideboard, please give me input. Also +1 if you like it and then post your deck so i can look at it and return the favor.
