This is my Ultra-Budget Crusher deck with a twist. What’s the twist?
Treasure Hunt
, obviously! This is a very simple deck that maximizes the abilities on
Countryside Crusher
in an all land deck, this being the aforementioned "combo." In order to win, you must either
Fling
a big crusher at your opponent, or swing at them for lethal damage. As long as you have
Countryside Crusher
in your opening hand, your turns should go something like this:
Turn 1:
Mountain
Turn 2:
Mountain
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Countryside Crusher
Turn 4: Use the upkeep ability to make a big crusher, and either draw into a
Fling
or swing for lethal.
Alternatively, if you happen to get
Treasure Hunt
but no
Countryside Crusher
, your turns will look like this:
Turn 1:
Mountain
Turn 2:
Island
->
Treasure Hunt
to get a
Countryside Crusher
in hand
Turn 3:
Mountain
->
Countryside Crusher
Turn 4: Same thing; discard a lot of lands and either
Fling
or swing for a lot of damage.
If you get both
Countryside Crusher
and
Treasure Hunt
, you can play the crusher turn 3 and go hunting the next turn. Since you draw a lot of lands but your maximum hand size is only 7, you will be forced to discard a lot of lands. That's a good thing: the more lands you can get into your graveyard, the bigger
Countryside Crusher
gets! Using this same logic, I would say this deck's best matchup would be against a Mill deck (which will only make your crusher bigger... as long as you don’t milk yourself out).
This deck can be purchased with all near mint cards for less than $5! If you are not a budget player, then I suggest adding some Izzet dual lands. For a Mono-Red version, check out Countryside Crusher Combo (Mono-Red, Ultra-Budget). Feedback and Suggestions are appreciated!
