My brother taught me how to play with his tempest throught onslaught tribal decks. I started buying my own cards around the m10 and zendikar time period. As you can tell from the color quiz above, I like playing white and green the most. I absolutely despise black. Red and blue are decent. I like change every once in a while. So, in order from favorite to least favorite color is WGRUB.
So I had an idea to make tribal decks since that was what I played with when I first started and because I love the interaction and synergy between cards in tribal decks. I'd appreciate any suggestions, comments, or kudos as well as upvotes! Here's a deck link so you don't have to dig through my profile to find a certain deck:
Current standard project(s):
Current modern project(s):
Current legacy project(s):
Current casual project(s):
Also, I was previously known as w999. i chose tempest as my new username cause 1) it sounds better than w999, 2) its my favorite unit in SC2 ( i'm known as KTGideon), and 3) i like change every once in awhile (reason why i like U/R burn decks despite my color quiz) so the definition fits perfectly.

Hey, could you check out a new deck I just came up with? I just opened a box with some friends (list of pulls is on my profile if interested). I've made the deck private for now (shared it with you), and would appreciate any feedback. It revolves around Bronzebeak Moa and Blaze Commando /Assemble the Legion .
Wanted to get the concept up now before I forgot about it, and will probably not be back on this until tomorrow.
Thanks!
Heh. I had the decks open to look at them, and then a friend called and we ended up talking until I was way too tired to look at anything besides a bed.
I'll try to get them today
We are going to have to play it again, because Cockatrice was being silly. I'll ask KrazyCaley or zandl to play it for you. I can do that within the week definitely, provided their schedules line up with mine. I could do it any time, it's just my mike is being iffy, so I am using a friend's.
Thanks for caring, but I'm sure ducttapedeckbox is just busy. It happens sometimes. :) Have YOU checked them out? The more the merrier, and I'm sure they could use some advice/criticism. :)
Long. About a dozen.
I've shared it with you on T/O as a private deck. Let me know if you can see it.
Thank you for the offer :) I'm going to read it through once and email it off to you for some editing
DGM discussion is up on Perfection of Milling (finally)
Hey I responded to your posts on Cruel Melek Mill , I wasn't able to link either of your aliases though for some reason.
Very nice. Took me a minute to realize who you were :P
Hey, could you check out I Want Your EYES.... when you have the time and tell me if you think it has the potential that I think it does? Thanks ;).
I think my best pull ever was a Elspeth, Knight-Errant . I also had a Tarmogoyf at one point, but I didn't get that from a pack (or a trade, for that matter).
Will do. With my luck, I'll probably be very disappointed since I have very bad luck with pulls. In an ISD box I opened with three other friends, I pulled nothing more than a dollar-rare, and my friend pulled 2 Liliana of the Veil s. I was a little jealous... especially with them at their current price :P
Heh. Well. With AP exams this week (and next), the soonest we could get a group together is ~2 weeks from now... I really want to look at the cards but also want to be surprised when I open the packs. It'll be a while before I get involved in any DGM discussions :P
Faeries is a tough deck to beat. One false move and down you go. I think it's just one of those losses that is bound to happen to any deck. Deck seemed very good to me. Eldrazi Monument might be a little slow for Modern, but it is quite nice.
Game 1, Stomped some faeries,
Game 2, Flooded,
Game 3, Slightly imperfect draws in a critical moment led to a couple turns of mana screw that ended up being fatal.
My deck won 2-1. I'll post results and what not this weekend hopefully. Lots of homework and studying for tests, is to blame for the delay.
Do you have Cockatrice?
Yeah no worries. And if you could, I would greatly appreciate it, if you could have the list ready by Wednesday.
Super. Yes, I will be Sideboarding, and I will start out with your deck, since you asked me first, but I will want to do some random matches, and some Community deck matches, if the Article Series gets popular enough.
Hey [w999]. Thanks for contacting me. I will be using my list that I will be using at the Modern GP in Portland, OR. And since I am kinda poor, I will be using Cockatrice. So send me the link fo the deck you want me to play against first. Thanks so much for helping me start this.

I want to try to avoid DGM as much as possible, and seeing that your main combo revolves around two DGM cards, I don't think I'd be of much help... Once I get some cards in paper I'd be happy to check them out though! :P
Congrats zaddos! Man, what a close game. :/ well, good luck on your next match!
try to add in Possibility Storm and Curse of Exhaustion . that way you can lock down your opponent
oh ok. i see. would have been much better if it did though :P looks solid. here's another +1!
it could be used as a bragging right though. i was just stating possibilities
i feel ya
someone hasn't been reading the articles. :P i honestly don't think there's any point in foiling a deck. i would much rather save the money to build another deck than getting the pride or bragging rights. :)
except that when you put a counter on Renegade Krasis with Ivy Lane Denizen , it doesn't count as "evolving." or does it?
i think this is more of a johnny build since its very limited with mono red and only humans? is that what you're aiming for cause honestly, i'm more of a spike...
now i know you said not to comment on the lands but i'm pretty sure you have 3 more forests so i'm going to say this: swap out three plains for 3 forests. its much better to start with green to get some more ramp going than to have white early. you're only 1 cmc creature, Avacyn's Pilgrim is green so its probably in your best interest to be able to play it first turn. other than that, this looks sold. +1 from me!
Xindlepete says...
Yeah. The other day you posted on his wall saying "you forgot to check Xindlepete's decks." I was just mentioning to you that he said he would get to them when he had time, and then I asked for your opinion on them. If you haven't checked them out yet, here they are:
The Firebrand's Family Reunion
I Bant Believe It's Not Butter!
And The Big Gruulbowski. Advice/criticisms/upvotes welcome!
