Hello. I have been thinking about starting a challenge for a bit now, and finally decided upon one: build a standard deck with only one creature type in it. Maybe you are one with insects, or leviathans speak to you. Anyways, be creative with your submissions, don't just do warrior tribal or soldiers, do something out of the norm.
Here are the rules
-The deck must be 60 cards with an optional sideboard.
-Must have at least 8 creatures
-If there is an ability that makes creature tokens, the tokens must match the creature type you chose. For instance, Raise the Alarm in a human deck will not work, but Rise of Eagles will work in a bird deck.
-Decks will be judged based off of creativity, not it's statistics.
-Must be of the current standard format- Theros, Born of the Gods, Journey into Nyx, M15, Khans of Tarkir, and Fate Reforged.
And as always,
Have fun, and happy slaughtering!

Djinn, Elemental, Monk, zombie, and shaman all look like something people could try.

So this is strictly for creative purposes? Not actual functionality of the deck?

Yes it is, but my next contest in 2-3 weeks will be based of off of functionality Dalektable

Would warriors count? Or do they have to be a type like human or zombie.

I almost forgot. The deck that I judge to be the most creative will get a shout out in my next challenge. There is no prize for winning, just bragging rights. The submission date for the challenge is Sunday, March 8th, 2015.
