Hello Everyone!

Click here to jump to this week's discussion.

Thank you so very much for your wonderful suggestions! For this week's update, I carefully went through all of the comments posted under this topic as of Jan. 21, 2012.

I am very pleased with the advice given to me so far, offered early on in the development of this deck. Without further ado, I would like to explain the changes incorporated into the creation of the third revision.

Thank you mozerdozer and stonethorn for your amazing recommendation of Nameless Inversion! As soon as I spotted the card, I looked it up, and without hesitation, I decided to include it in this week's early update! Thank you also for your wonderful combo suggestion. I have decided to include my interpretation of the ingenious implementation under this week's Card of the Week section!

Thank you Epochalyptik for your wonderful recommendation of Dark Ritual! I had previously thought of using the mana-acceleration instant, but I wasn't reminded of the true usefulness of the card until you recommended it! I have decided to replace Blood Pet with two copies of Dark Ritual. Thank you again for your input!

I reconsidered switching out Noxious Ghoul for Skinrender, Moan of the Unhallowed, or Endless Ranks of the Undead, but decided against it when I realized there remained only six other sources of removal in the deck (from eight in the first revision). Taking out Noxious Ghoul would render my main form of late-game removal extinct. Thus, I have decided to leave the creature in the deck's third revision.

Following this post are my comments for this week's Card of the Week. Again, thanks for all of the thoughtful comments! I thank you for all of your valuable suggestions. As I am still relatively new to Magic the Gathering, I would indeed greatly appreciate any suggestions and/or constructive criticism that you may have to offer.

One of the more powerful tribal instants of Lorwyn, this card was only recently brought to my attention by your wonderful suggestions. Thanks for the great recommendation, mozerdozer and stonethorn! Thus, with the update this week comes my interpretation of this incredible two-drop. My choice of this week is Nameless Inversion.

With its +3/-3 ability, the instant replaces one copy of Victim of Night, in accordance with Epochalyptik's helpful suggestion of implementing 'Toughness Modifier' removal in place of 'Destroy' spells. The deck implements one copy of Nameless Inversion, and one copy is all you need!

This ingenious combo came to my knowledge as a result of your valuable advice and recommendations. With Lord of the Undead or Unholy Grotto in play, you can make use of the terrifying removal tool again and again! Not much else can prove more annoying than this combination of effects; as you repeatedly exploit this instrument of destruction, you'll be giving your opponent a psychological beating.

To conclude briefly, the comments recommending Nameless Inversion have been dead on. As a new introduction to the deck, let's give this two-drop a warm welcome!
