Well, it's not that different from Vindicate.

From Flores' article: This card is pretty cool. If it were an instant it would be so awesome in my Toshi/VWR deck. But it isn't. As a sorcery it just isn't that good, but nonland permanents, well, pretty good. It'll have to compete with Pernicious deed in my decks though. I'll have to find a...

Gogogo mogg squad!

Indeed. I think the points I made when I proposed the card are valid. You may think they're not, but stressing that I'm right is annoying at best and won't persuade you anyway. Read what I wrote. I am right. And yes, with a decent imagination you could come up with a deck that could run it...

That makes me ashamed I brought that card up. It's unmentionable crap.

The thing is, to beat Affinity black is a color with a severe disadvantage: a lack of artifact hate. It's not as if it's totally hopeless, because Death Cloud and Barter in Blood are very strong cards against most decks. Including affinity :) The thing is that MBC is so sloooow in this...

Mogg Squad is pretty terrible. You can't play it in a deck with creatures or against a deck with creatures. You can only play it in a control deck against another control deck, but in that case it's in the wrong color. And it lacks evasion or any other useful ability, so even for a control deck...

The poll forces me to "elaborate": I'm not interested in m:tg in a different form than oldschool paper magic.

Awesome box. If it wasn't for the money involved I'd make a box myself. Between me and a friend of mine I think I'd already have half a box. This guy even has 7 out of P9 lying around. Let me know if you plan to draft on a friday :cool:

I have an extended elves combo deck. It's really funny, and probably the cheapest deck (because # of goyfs = 0) to build. That is, as long as you can borrow Thoughtseizes and Jittes for the sideboard. It's also easier than Tendrils. And it has no counterspells, so you don't really have to think...

I do hope they're not changing 50% of the core set each year. That'd mean a very large number of new cards. I thought they had just figured out that "players" feel there were too many new cards, hence the smaller set size. Anyway, I love the fantasy feel of the previewed cards. Most cards are...

Well, there are already two precons with red in it. I think we'd stand a better chance if the deck has as little as possible overlap with the other precons. You can find those decklists here. I tend to go with Grave pact, because that's one of my favorite cards of all time. It should be good...

Who needs degrees ;) Anyway, good luck with it.

Time for an update. I've been toying with the deck, this is how it is now: 4 VWR 4 Hunted phantasm 1 Hunted horror 1 Hunted dragon 1 Hunted troll 4 Leyline of singularity 3 Tainted aether 1 Engineered explosives 1 Powder keg 1 Serum powder 1 Sword of fire and ice 4 Brand 4 Brainstorm 3...

Hm, but with Spidey gone, that means that you and me are the only ones left...

Dredge is good, but Darkblast, well, hm. It's okay against weenie hordes, but it doesn't dredge enough cards to make it worthwile. I think Stinkweed imp (blocks flyers = good) or Golgari grave-troll are more worthy. The troll fits the theme, although it's not a zombie. Shambling shell is, but it...

I think this thread could be merged with this. A little thread necromancy is appropriate :p Anyway, for the deck with Korlash I decided to go with a pretty standard MBC lookalike: 4 hymn to tourach 4 duress 4 innocent Blood 2 smother 3 Staff of Domination 3 Damnation 3 tendrils of Corruption 1...

I figured out it's a real bombo. When Ravnica was freshly released I had a zombie tribal deck on magic online. Twenty zombies, 4 of which where Shambling shell. Plus 4 Grave pacts and 4 Golgari germination. Unfortunately tribal pretty much sucks in the modern standard :(

Tombstone stairwell is nice, but it's also pretty slow. Good for multiplayer, but this time I want to build something for single player. Gibbering descent would be awesome in a madness/stairwell build though. But it's no zombie ;)

I'm building decks out of the piles of cards I have, and one of my main goals is to build a zombie deck. Because of Carnophage and Sarcomancy, zombies are often associated with sui black. If you take that route you'd end up with a bad sui deck with 3 different Lords that just loses to goblins...
