Welcome one and all to my Mathas, Fiend Seeker deck . Ever had one of those cards that you saw and you just KNEW you had to do something for it? That's how our boy Mathas was to me. I've always been the scheming 'If you kill this creature, I'll do this for you' kind of player in EDH, and putting a similar effect on a card drew me RIGHT to it. The point of the deck is to direct attention away from yourself in the early game, using effects such as Mathas and pillow fort cards like Ghostly Prison and Circle of Flame before hitting them with the late game threats. Whether or not this deck ends up being competitive, I'm not sure. This deck is still very much a work in progress, so if you have ideas or suggestions, please. I'd love to hear them.
