Challenges

So the challenge is to build a deck as competitive as possible with one of these enchantments as the pivot of the deck:

Rules

  • The deck has to be Standard legal (Current standard are THS-BNG-JOU-M15-KTK-FRF-DTK)

  • No color restriction

  • No budget restriction(but under $100(budget) would be nice)

  • At least 3-copy of said enchantments of any combinations has to be in the deck(e.g. 3 Deadly Wanderings in a deck or 2 Skywise Teachings and 1 Berserkers' Onslaught in a deck)

Anyone can accept the challenge. Please post your deck here. Looking forward to any interesting brew!!

P.S. Please don't expect any reward since I'm stingy as hell. Consider the challenging mind exercise as your reward (>_o)b

isnt the point to have a reward? theres no such thing as mind exercise when youre just building a bad deck

Something I absolutely loved as an idea is:

4 Haunted Plate Mail

4 Silumgar Sorcerer (or other exploit critters)

4 Xathrid Slyblade

4 Deadly Wanderings

Then a bunch of your regular sort of control cards.

The idea is that you will play to always have exactly one creature on the board. You enchant that creature with Haunted Plate Mail and, if/when it dies, activate the plate mail and, again, have exactly one creature on the field.

This also works great with clears-the-field bounce spells as Haunted Plate Mail has a sort of pseudo-evasion for it.

I feel like you posted this so someone would build a deck for you...

Ouch you got me Asher18. Honestly I'd really want to see some deck from those cards, but I'm stumped. But it's a fun activity all around, no?

And wow, mystara, great job! Your deck is interesting as heck. I'm really tempted to build it
