Hey all! Another cheap(ish) themed deck. This is a horror deck, plain and simple. BUT, it's all about those suuper slow cards that I love for some reason. And then making them HAPPEN faster, 'cuz I'm impatient.

Basically, the idea is simple. Play a card, and if it needs counters, such as Ludevic's Test Subject   , use Clockspinning or Thrummingbird til it hatches. Otherwise, Vampire Hexmage or Clockspinning to remove counters for Thing in the Ice  . It's a pretty nifty deck.

If you are concerned about some bigger wall decks, perhaps consider tossing a few Artful Dodges if you'd like. Against an aggro-heavy deck? Well, you'll probably lose, but try some Fog Bank cards to maybe help. It's my most recent favorite wall.

If the deck STILL isn't quite as fast as you'd like, consider swapping out the Fume Spitter cards for Thrull Parasite .

Please note, last I checked, the deck (excluding sideboard/maybeboard) was around $50. IN A MONEY-DONT-MATTER SITUATION, a phenomenal card to include is Dark Depths. Expensive, but a fun card. Also stupid good when combined with Vampire Hexmage. With these two cards, you can end the game on turn four.

The plan would be as follows: Turn 1 Dark Depths. Turn two Swamp. Turn three Swamp and Vampire Hexmage, then immediately sac the vamp to remove all remaining counters from the Dark Depths. Swing with a 20/20 flyer on turn four. Will end most games.

WITHOUT dark depths, the deck performs pretty well. It predominantly establishes board control via Thing in the Ice  , and has Ludevic's Test Subject   for heavy hitters. It's a pretty consistent deck, which I always enjoy, am deathly hope you like as well.

If you want the deck to perform better, try adding in the maybeboard lands (or others)!

Give it a try, then let me know what you think! I'm always open for suggestions and recommendations. And as always, I appreciate a +1 if you like it. Thanks, and enjoy.
