Draw power post rotation?
Standard forum

I'm thinking about making a U/W or, depending on what lands are printed in Theros, U/W/R control build post-rotation and I'm wondering what sort of draw power I have at my disposal other than Sphinx's Revalation of course
And of course anything that Theros will bring. Why do people keep forcing themselves to try to deckbuild with such a handicap.

MurasakiRose, I personally am building a GW deck post-rotation, purely because I am wanting to get back into the game by attending FNM again, but won't be able to until after rotation anyway. Maybe other users are just planning decks for after rotation, and are not intending on using them before?

@Denial048 It's still ridiculous you're still missing all the cards from Theros. It's like saying you'll play modern but won't play with any set from after INN you're just shutting yourself on cards that could be great.

I was simply suggesting the cards that are currently available.

MurasakiRose Yes, but I am not actually BUILDING the deck now, just planning it, so as Theros gets spoiled, I can replace cards where necessary. It is not restricting oneself as much as it is getting prepared.
Sure, I don't know what Theros will bring, so I may change the deck completely.

With rotation only a month away, and M14 recently brining us an update on some cards that will be available, it only makes sense to start planning what type of decks you may want to play or build upon.
After getting a base premise, you can change or alter the concept as Theros becomes spoiled.
My deck Silent Control went 3-1-1 last week, as a concept deck for B/W control. I was able to see what it's flaws were, and now know what to be looking for to improve it.
(Seraph of the Sword is not needed and gives little benefit, and splashing Red for Boros Charm may be a big improvement.)
