Cheaper and better? Okay. —July 13, 2014

So, yeah. We removed like 3 cards and dropped out total price to about 200 dollars... down from 320. Easier on the wallet.

If i ever get a damnation, I will put it in, but the budget don't allow for that right now!

Viscera Seer came back into the fold as was originally recommended by several of my peers as well as spawning pool and phyrexian altar... sac outlets are a good thing to have.

Changed the line up on a few creatures... don't remember what i took out to add, but all those creatures are cheap as balls to begin with.

Land took some tweaks, removed vesuva and urborg... no need for urborg, vesuva is useful but not really crucial. Swap for Swamp.

Added a few more enchantments and put some more card recovery in... plus a Sol Ring...

THINK THATS ALL. Seems to be testing better than before with these adjustments!

OKAY. Have a good one!

This deck is built extremely intelligently. I love it. Awesome job.

I love Bitter Ordeal and am really glad to see a deck that could wreck people with it. Overall looks like a well planned deck.

Thanks for the comments guys. I appreciate it it. Bitter Ordeal just had to go in, if there was any deck it was going to work well in, its this one.

I'm always open to suggestions if anyone else has any!

With all of the killing and discard have you considered Sangromancer as a way to stay in the game longer? Also, have you considered Phyrexian Altar ? Finally, there is Mikaeus, the Unhallowed . (combos with Triskelion for infinite damage.

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed wont work because if hes on the board all my creatures will be to big and my recursion engine wont start. blah.

Phyrexian Altar is a good call, I almost put it in... but card:Ashnod's Altar won out the fight. (Basically because I already had one and because I get mana faster with it)

Sangromancer I'm going to have to consider this one! Its pretty great. I will see if I can find room for her. Much thanks.

There are ways to cancel it out, most notably Heartless Summoning but i see your point.

Glad i could help on the Sangromancer .

If you've got some reliable life gain going on, consider Phyrexian Reclamation in the place of Haunted Crossroads so you don't have to wait to get creatures back?

I do have that card as well! It's worth a sideboard at least, I'll give it a go.

Shirei + Heartless Summoning = Combo-y goodness.

I dunno, I'm not so crazy about Heartless Summoning , I have plenty of sac outlets with out it. I'm not trying to have all my dudes die as soon as I play them. It's gonna leave me wide open. I would much rather have a blocker to block/sac than to be wide open...

With your amazingly high number of 1/1s perhaps Sword of the Meek could lead to some potential combos if you find a reason to sacrifice the sword beyond Infernal Tribute and Reprocess .

Kudos on yet another cool name, nice stuff!

That is a disgusting infinite combo with Bottle Gnomes and the Blood Artist . I love it.

citrusface says... #13

Well its not really infinite... but it works pretty good! Thanks!

Altar of Dementia + shirei + any 1 power or less creature= win

DRDONUTZ says... #15

Also you might want to add Viscera Seer

citrusface says... #16

Ah! Thank you kind sir. Viscera Seer was on the list and got the choped so some other creature could exist... But thank you.

Also your user name reminds me of Dr. Andonuts from Earthbound. Awesome.

Gotta love Earthbound.

Thanks yo! It not hard to build a deck man. You can find any card you need to do anything... just use the MTG Gatherer page. Thats what I used to build this!

A deck that uses Chimney Imp to about as full of potential as it will ever have. You are a true genius. I'm not sure if there is a greater feat in life.

May I recommend Solemn Simulacrum from my own experience with my Shirei deck. Even though it's 2 power, it's still great when you run things like Myr Retriever , or Plagued Rusalka and Phyrexian Plaguelord to lower it's power. Junk Diver is another good Artifact retreiver to get him back too.

I also cannot recommend Harvester of Souls enough, the card draw is insane.

Altar of Dementia is a card I have never heard of before, but it looks great as an infinite sac outlet. Shall maybe consider for my deck :)
