Unbeatable low many curve deck ideas!

Deck Help forum

Posted on Oct. 24, 2014, 9:07 p.m. by Kutdra1

I enjoy a good low mana deck. So far my infect and spirit deck have been unbeatable mainly because I can get out the conditions I need to win by turn 4 (hopefully). I want to build another deck that's unbeatable! I've considered first strike+deathtouch but that's pretty easy to take down. Anyways, post your ideas!

I have a U/G Infect deck that consistently wins turn 2-3 if you wanna check it out. GlistenerAgent also has an awesome Infect deck you could check out.

Oh never mind, I had a complete blonde moment reading the post, I thought you were asking for decks that could easily win by turn 4 lol. I'll go check out your deck though :p.

I assume this a Modern deck idea? Even so, Chalice of the Void is a thing to be wary of.

As far as Aggro goes, Affinity, Red Deck Wins/Burn, and Zoo seem to be effective in Modern. Bogles/Hexproof does well too.

To stray outside of the meta there are a few options. Immolating Souleater , Invisible Stalker , and Moltensteel Dragon all have potential. Heartless Summoning + Perilous Myr + Glissa, the Traitor can be fun. Add some Disciple of the Vault for good measure; won't work with Heartless Summoning , though.

Creatures are easy to beat with removal. Any deck will run removal. Enchantment/Artifact combos will take game one unless you're playing against a //X deck with access to Abrupt Decay (this is why Hexproof critters w Auras are good). Game two they side in the hate.

Combo decks like Storm can be good, as they aren't seen often, at least in my meta. Other metas may be prevalent. Combo decks in Modern also include Kiki Twin, Kiki Pod, Melira Pod, and Jeskai Storm. Legacy has combos out the wazoo, depending on what you can afford to play.

If you can look at your meta and see what sort of decks are played, you can build a deck to succeed against those decks. Typically, the meta will evolve to hate you out if you are successful, then you make changes or switch decks.

Without further information about the format, deck archetype/style, and budget you have, I cannot give you anymore feedback. Hope this helped, at least.

No deck is "unbeatable", and if it is it wouldn't be legal in any format. Infect is easily taken down with the right sideboard tech, and a decent amount of removal just kills it. That being said, if you want help we need to know a format. In modern you've got G/W Hexproof for a quick deck that can win by T4, as well as the new Jeskai Ascendancy combo deck that can consistently combo off turn three, and often turn two.

I'm thinking it's time i rebrewed my 2 deadliest tribal decks..

Just play Affinity if it's Modern. That deck tops out at 3, and plays many zero-mana cards. It's by far the most explosive deck in the format.

If you're not just limited to modern, check out ten-land stompy. I don't have a decklist but a friend of mine plays it and it basically feels like playing RDW but green and awesome.

Well, I run How to beat face (No, not Affinity) right now, and it's pretty much as good as I've seen for a semi-competitive deck with a low mana curve. It's more consistent and resilient than Infect, but it isn't quite as explosive. There are similar ideas all over the place.
