+1 for Selesnya!

I like the idea of building a deck for every color combo. One day. I'm excited to have finished my comprehensive and carefully planned 5 mono colored decks.

Idoneity

Thanks for the suggestions and +1!

I LOVE Caverns of Despair and am brainstorming on how to add it!

You might not have seen but, Ward of Bones was already on my list; it's a card that I adore (in foil), and was responsible for an epic win in a game at my local meet up in San Francisco.

I am interested in Planar Atlas - however I NEED red mana. I have Iron Myr in there because I feel more comfortable with the red mana production over something like Mind Stone. Mindstone is great for the draw and Myr is good for a block and red mana.

I had Crawlspace in the deck but it always felt kinda meh - taking up space for something better. I think this was because the other stax and prison pieces felt more impactful - especially with Gloin, Dwarf Emissary in there. Omitting Crawlspce frees me up to add more offense.

I also own Portcullis and it was also in the deck at one point. But it never really felt impactful either. I really had to think about and balance Prison/Stax, with enough damage spells and payoffs - so Portcullis probably got the boot over better prison cards and cards that provide offense. BTW, ever heard of Noetic Scales?? A card I used to try and make work in the Legacy version.

Torpor Orb and Meekstone are okay but risky in my build. Meekstone stops Gloin from untapping. The Orb is playable for sure... but non-bos hard with a few cards in the deck. I think I looked at Orb and made a tough decision... But I love switching cards around and trying them out for awhile.

So this deck has a long history. I've been playing since middle school in 94. I have two legacy decks, but they're both mono colored - Merfolk and Red Prison Burn. This deck is an homage to that Legacy build. I've been brewing these Legacy decks since I was a kid and continue to update them. Ensnaring Bridge has a special place in my heart cause I felt like I was playing it before it got big. I'm especially proud of my Legacy Red Prison Burn deck because it was a original homebrew concept I came up with as a kid. I've been building alongside my Merfolk deck all this time. I was an early innovator with the Red Prison build.
