DREADNOUGHT ZOO TURN 3 WIN!!

Legacy Combo Competitive RG (Gruul) Zoo

Kaos_Kitty


Hello everybody, and welcome to yet another build by the Kaos_Kitty! For awhile I have been looking at Zoo decks, and I have grown quite fond of them. Throughout my looking though I have noticed something consistent, they use the best and most efficient creatures in Magic, yet I had never seen Phyrexian Dreadnought used in any of these decks. Thus I began to build my own version of Zoo. May I introduce DREADNOUGHT ZOO!! Now the plan is this

Turn 1: Play a land, Exile Simian Spirit Guide or Elvish Spirit Guide, then play Burning-Tree Emissary into a Torpor Orb.

Turn 2: Play a land, tap 1 for Phyrexian Dreadnought, pay 1 for Crimson Wisps on the dreadnought, attack for 14.

Turn 3: Win

Now on to the cards!!

Phyrexian Dreadnought: A one drop that combined with Torpor Orb has no drawbacks, plus has trample, can end games before they even begin! Add in Crimson Wisps for a burst of speed and a free card.

Burning-Tree Emissary: A free 2/2 with mana fixing. Now with Torpor Orb out you dont get that, but thats the trade-off for a 12/12.

Simian Spirit Guide: Helps to accelerate your game early on. Plus mana fixing.

Elvish Spirit Guide: Same as the Simian.

Ghor-Clan Rampager : Can give a creature I control +4/+4 and trample at a moments notice for 2? Yes please! Also a pretty decent body if you chose to play him.

Kird Ape : A Zoo staple. A one drop 2/3.

Flinthoof Boar : Another Zoo staple. A 2 drop 3/3 that can give itself haste.

Goblin Guide: A 1 drop 2/2 with haste.

Vexing Devil: A one drop 4/3 that can deal 4 damage if the opponent chooses so, unless Torpor Orb is out, then he is just a 1 drop 4/3 that the opponent just has to deal with. Either way, he is a good card.

Lightning Bolt: It can deal 3 damage to the opponent, or get rid of a pesky creature. Overall just a good utility card.

Torpor Orb: Gives you Dreadnoughts or Devils with no fee and can cripple some of your opponents creatures as well.

Please let me know what you think and as always upvotes always help keep me motivated to post more decks. I currently have 13+ that I can post on here. Have a great day, and thank you all!!
