Update 0.1

tony_c, 11 years ago

Now legal in standard. Also based on cards that I own.

2 cards added, descriptions improved

DodgeNDive, 11 years ago

Added Hands of Binding x2 into mainboard to provide more targeted creature control as the current meta in my local is turning towards green devotion.

Added Nivmagus Elemental for times when ciphered hands of binding or hidden strings' effects are not needed (can still trigger heroic before being exiled).

As a little bonus, all the 1 mana spells we have can just be cast for +2/+2 tokens on Nivmagus, while targeting to trigger heroic.

Descriptions updated to include creature cards card by card breakdown, added beheadings as I have now learnt how to do them here (yay!)

Will add the breakdown of non creature spells soon as possible

Fixed mana fetches

Aevukh, 11 years ago

Found out that my Teferi has been missing from the deck :( Whether through me misplacing it or by someone taking it, I'm working on getting another one. Put Swan Song in the deck for the meantime.

Gruul

kuryan100, 11 years ago

This is a deck generated by a draft. It is very heavy on the low mana cost and is easily playable

Mono-Blue has problems

Ravonix, 11 years ago

Although this may sound obvious, Mistcutter Hydra is really good against mono Blue and Dimir decks. I knew it had protection from Blue, but when i was playing the all too popular mono-blue decks that everyone at game stores seems to be running, i began to crush them under the boots of my 4/4, 5/5, 6/6 and finally 11/11 Mistcutter Hydras. Although cards llike Master of Waves still give me some trouble, you can really expand on the rest of those mono blue decks. (also you can Monstrosity Polukranos, World Eater for just 1 and kill it and it's tokens), I really think that this deck has potential, so please give me feed back and +1 if you like the deck.

Netjester, 11 years ago

Changed the deck from Reanimator to Midrange.

Final

Ooska, 11 years ago

Lemme know if you have a sweet card idea for this deck.

Unuunilium, 11 years ago

In: Borrowing 100,000 Arrows, Tamiyo, the Moon Sage

Out: Fabricate, Horizon Chimera

Some changes

elctrc, 11 years ago

Needed more creatures. Added in the Deputies and Soldiers. Took out Opportunity and planeswalker to reduce curve (which is now topping out at 4). Added the Bidents and messed a bit with the sideboard.

Some Play

elctrc, 11 years ago

Played a slight variation on this one at the local Saturday Standard. One one (in three) and lost the other two terribly in just two games. Making adjustments!

Sharpie1584, 11 years ago

Played this Deck and FNM went 3-1-1. Need to add better sideboard. Planning on adding golgari charm to protect against board wipe. Lost to 'Merica control so need way to protect creatures from supreme verdict. Also adding 2 hero's downfall to help deal with plainswalkers.

3rd Place at FNM Modern

DreamGoddessLindsey, 11 years ago

Not a bad night for my infect deck.

Match #1: Lost 0-2 vs. Mono-Green Elves. Same deck as before, and I still hate it. It's the only deck faster than mine.

Match #2: 1-1-1 Draw vs. Artifact Affinity. This was my first time facing a deck like this, and it wasn't very fun. Cranial Plating is a real bitch to deal with, especially when paired with Inkmoth Nexus. I won the first game, but lost the second because he played a card that made it so that I could only play one spell a turn if it wasn't an artifact spell. The third went to time limit.

Match #3: Bye.

Match #4: Won 2-0 vs. Boros Aggro and Burn. I've faced this deck a few times, and it's a decent deck, but he doesn't play optimally. I won the first game by swinging 13 infect over the top of a Boros Reckoner with only 2 life left, and killed him before the trigger went off. The second game, I finally got to play Wild Defiance, and used it to smash for 20 infect on T5. It was glorious. He raged really bad, smashing his binding on his head with cards flying everywhere. I was amused.

That's my FNM experience this week.

Change 01

ThePaleRider, 11 years ago

After playing a few games with this deck and hearing some suggestions I have made a few changes accordingly.

-2 Rakdos's Return

-1 Diabolic Revelation

-1 Diabolic Tutor

+4 Terminate

It was pointed out that my deck did not have enough creatures or creature removal to work as good as it could be able too. After I realized this (which means someone kindly pointed it out to me) I took out some unnessisary and expesive cards and put in some creature hate. I would love to hear any and all suggestions! Thanks for your time!

Library of Leng

Brawler_1337, 11 years ago

I added Library of Leng and boarded out Barbed Shocker. Library of Leng seems like it'll help with Windfall effects.

Card Additions

TehRazorBack, 11 years ago

Managed to do some trades with friends.

• Gavony Township - Replaced a Forest.
• Jar of Eyeballs - Replacing One Dozen Eyes.

Extra

Some cards that I'm sharing between my EDH decks (As I only have one of):

• Temple Garden - Replacing Plains.
• Command Tower - Replacing Forest.
• Sol Ring - Replacing Ring of Thune.
• Aura ShardsGC - Replacing Oblivion Ring.

Nykthos and more synergy

mrxentrix, 11 years ago

Not sure why I forgot about Nykthos but I've added it in to take advantage of white devotion -2x Plains +2x Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx

Also took a suggestion to increase synergy between Ethereal Armor, Hopeful Eidolon and Archangel of Thune.

-3x Swift Justice -3x Favored Hoplite +2x Ethereal Armor +3x hopeful eidolons

This build makes a lot more sense. It now has the ability to really abuse the Ethereal Armor mechanic and really use the Bestow ability. Lifegain appears to be everywhere further boosting Archangel of Thune's ability.

Thanks for the suggestions! Vote up!

Massive overhaul

Phil73805, 11 years ago

Okay, played a good few games lost the vast majority of them. Rebuilt the deck with some help from a friend. What say you now?

Brought in the God

Fuss78, 11 years ago

Took out the 2x Instill Energy and put in 2x Purphoros, God of the Forge. Thanks for the suggestion Blackblade. Think this addition will help the deck if it reaches mid-range.

mukas999, 11 years ago

So I found what I need for control: Negate/Dispel. I just get completely screwed by counter spells.

An Idea

MickTheSculptor, 11 years ago

This deck might become a phase control deck. With cards like Monent of Silence, who wouldn't pass this up?

Idontknowhow2play, 11 years ago

Removed 2 Heliod, God of the Sun and 4 Pacifism and 3 Plains and added 4 Banisher Priest and 4 Imposing Sovereign and 1 more Spear of Heliod

More Theros Stuff

UncleLanddrops, 11 years ago

Decided to add Thassa and her Bident to pace the card draw a little better. With Archivist, there was too much going on, and it ended up costing me a few games. Also replaced a few dud creatures and spells with cards I like- Disperse and Negate.

Still looking for a decent way to shuffle my graveyard back into my library at Instant speed. Considering Psychic Spiral and Mnemonic Nexus.
