People won't let me have their things when I play my Sen Triplets deck so I thought I would try being nice and giving out gifts. Maybe then people will be more thoughtful. Anyway you get some gifts and you get some gifts. Most of the creatures in this deck provide some sort of immediate benefit for us and then can be easily traded for the best thing on the board. For added spice, play only white border basic lands to infuriate your friends. All in all this deck really isn't trying to win, (It can sneak one out sometimes) it is surely weaker than most decks you'll sit down with but it gives games a change of pace which my play group as seemed to appreciate.

I think I'm finally in a place where I am happy with this deck. I took some of the more mean gifts out to keep people from killing me immediately and added in some more card draw. I'm pretty sure I'm going to love Triskaidekaphile in this deck as you can stack the triggers so that you draw a bunch off of Zedruu, among the various other draw engines that were already in the deck, to trigger the win. So far the nice gifts worked much better as it has kept the target off my back and allow me to get as much value as I could out of my gifts.
