Phylactery Lich isn't any good...... right?

Modern

Nefashu


Phylactery Lich is essentially one of the lesser cards in Magic. I saw Darksteel Relic and knew I had to make deck out of that piece of garbage.

So here is how this all goes down:On turns 1-3 you play a Darksteel Relic or a Darksteel Axe or a Darksteel Myr and then on either turn 3 or 4 you drop in the Phylactery Lich who should be near immortal. Slap down a Lashwrithe or a Basilisk Collar on him and start swinging. With so many artifacts, Etched Champion starts to look good as does Darksteel Juggernaut . And both of those happen to be very nearly immortal themselves.

If it comes down to it, a Darksteel Sentinel with a Basilisk Collar makes for some constant damage and you can use the Darksteel Sentinel to make another phylactery lich.

With the right luck, this deck is immune to almost all of the standard removal. The only things that I can see really wrecking it are Oust, Condemn, Journey to Nowhere, and -1/-1 stuff like Contagion Engine but what aggro deck doesn't get eaten live by all that?

+1 if you like it and comments are always welcome.
