Deck Tech

The idea behind this deck is to do the opposite of an 8-rack deck and make your opponent draw cards and lose life from that.

The Rack

Draw Effect

  • Howling Mine: Super cheap draw effect that gets your opponents hand full early on

  • Master of the Feast: A flying, 5/5, 3-drop with a draw effect to boot? Uh...YES!

  • Teferi's Puzzle Box: This is a game winner when dreams is on the field most of the time and has won me most of my games with this deck

Other Card Choices

  • Crypt Ghast: He can double mana which means possibly dropping 2 puzzle boxes turn 5. his extort ability also helps keep your life up later in the game.

  • Sun Droplet: Mainly here for life gain. It works well to counteract Spiteful Visions and gets better the more opponents their are

  • Exsanguinate: Again, mainly here for life gain to counteract Spiteful Visions, but can be a game finisher with a Crypt Ghast out

  • Murder/Smother: just removal, pretty self-explainable

  • Vampire Nighthawk: Just a all around good black card. It deters attacks and gains you life too


As always any suggestions or comments are welcome!

It was a fun deck over all to play but had some major issues: fast aggro decks (especially ones with trample) blew through my defenses, and Otherworld Atlas and Seizan, Perverter of Truth were dead cards in my hand.

Cards that got replaced: -2 Otherworld Atlas, +2 Font of Mythos; -2 Seizan, Perverter of Truth, +2 Crypt Ghast; -4 Will-o'-the-Wisp, +4Smother
