+3 Silverblade Paladin (total =3)

Changes

kaibadragon, 12 years ago

Decided that since Murder is in a permanent state of sideboarded in (due to the fact that my friend also plays Mono-Black), I noticed that they don't cause any problems regarding the one extra mana versus Victim of Night. Thus, I decided to make them a permanent change.

Cleanup

sewellius, 12 years ago

Finished filling out the sideboard and upped the number of lands slightly.

need Alchemist's refuge, another devastation tide

poophy, 12 years ago

Act of Treason has been sideboarded in favor of Madcap Skills. i still think that Act of Treason is fun trick, but i'm hoping to get more consistent use out of Madcap Skills. playing both Act of Treason and Spark Trooper, i seemed to be relying too much on one turn tricks and losing to anything that could just keep hitting turn after turn.

added a Gideon, Champion of Justice not so much because i think that he's a great card as much as that when i pulled him i thought that he was funny. and, should an opponent also think him not much to worry about, there's always a chance to give him double strike for a serious hit.

i also got around to building that token deck around Assemble the Legion, Red/White Token, it's proving rather inconsistent itself, but i'm having fun with it.

Yep -Let's Go for It!

Taytora, 12 years ago

Alright, forget it -let's go all out (aside from Boros Reckoner and Thundermaw Hellkite if possible). Falkenrath Aristocrat is now on the list. I've realized I probably cannot support a T3 Vampire Nighthawk and still be able to curve into a T4 Hellrider reliably. Thoughts here?

Some changes

RussischerZar, 12 years ago

Moved the Shambleshark to the sideboard in favor of Farseek. -1 Fathom Mage +1 Master Biomancer. Thinking about Prime Speaker Zegana in place of Fathom Mage. Maybe in the sideboard? That's already so full though.

Deck is 61 cards at the moment since I can't decide on what to remove. I basically need every card.

I'm also thinking splashing red for Kessig Wolf Run, maybe replacing Gavony Township. Kessig could pump Master Biomancer for additional counters on new creatures, or Champion of Lambholt for unblockable-ness. I might try and see which is better.

NotStiffler, 12 years ago

Added a Tainted AEther and made some Swamps Vault of Whispers so I can potentially get them back with Glissa, the Traitor *oversized*.

Madcow457, 12 years ago

just took 3rd at FNM only reason I lost was because of 4 bonfires in the same game and they just wrecked me. Match 1. Boros agro 2-1 I rolled but he got it with a good bonfire for game 2 Match 2. Prime speaker Jund 2-0 Was my father actually rolled him even got a angel of serenity and I still won Match 3. Esper control I got in really good early both games and he couldn't come back Match 4 G/R/W mid range 1-2 this match pissed me off so much 4 bonfires the match game won he went to 5 and i had a good start got bonfired recovered and then bonfired again, next match knight of infamy got there with aristocrat and won, and game 3 it was really close at the end until he bonfired and got me

Switching up the sideboard.

Meb112, 12 years ago

So after looking at my deck a realized that it's a joke going against a mill deck, on account of my dependence on Mwonvuli Beast Tracker. In fact she would be helping them out. So I found a good alternative in Signal the Clans. It allows me to search but the card goes right into my hand. Granted, I still may be forced to discard the card but in the end it's better than having it on top of my library. I also realize that this one change has altered a good amount of my sideboard since I need a mountain and Evolving Wilds to sub in for a better chance to pull fire mana, but I feel that I play against mill decks enough to justify this.

I also realize that it may be a bad idea to even think about putting fire in via my sideboard but in combination with Verdant Haven it's surprisingly easy to pull that 1 fire mana I need.

Added Sideboard

Zedes1, 12 years ago

Centaur healers against any kind of aggro, essence scatter against naya and gruul blitz, negate and staff of nin against control, sundering growths against any deck that relies on enchantments/artifacts such as BoW, Black tide, any deck with assemble the legion, and for detention spheres/orings.

Updates and Playtested more Options

IamSuperman825, 12 years ago

The following change(s) are now final.
-Scourge of the Noblis +Felidar Umbra
-Emblem of the Warmind +Mark of Fury
-Crown of the Ages +Forest (5/13/13)


The Following Changes Have Done Well in Playtesting and Will Most Likely Stay
-Nomad Mythmaker +Wood Elves
-Leyline of Sanctity +Enchantress's Presence
-Ethereal Armor +Land Tax
-Serra's Embrace +Chromatic Lantern


The Following Changes Havent Seen Battle Yet For Testing
-Angelic Destiny +Aura Shards
-Scavenging Ooze + Mirari's Wake
SB: -Tornado Elemental + Scavenging Ooze


Thoughts On Specific Changes:
Mark of Fury is just amazing with my Enchantress theme.
Land Tax got all 9 of the basic lands in my deck and I didnt have a problem the rest of the game.
Chromatic Lantern helped tremendously with mana fixing since I do run a plethora of utility lands.
As sad as I may be to see Crown of the Ages go, having that extra Forest when Land Tax hit the board was extremely helpful.


I will continue to play test and hopefully the other changes Ive made will surface and prove their worth.

Ipukukui, 12 years ago

I replaced Seething Song with Rites of Flourishing. Reworked the mana base.

Full Change

alecc, 12 years ago

Hey Guys, Ive Testing This Deck Enntire Weekend, And Modified Somethings, Added More +1 Prime Speaker Zegana, +1 The Mercurial Chemister, +1 Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius, +2 Cyclonic RiftGC, +4 Urban Evolution, +4 Mana Bloom

Ive Removed Think Twice, Abundant Growth, Devil's Play And Chromatic Lantern (I dont Like Lantern Here Becouse We Have ALL colored mana we Want, And Mana Bloom is more Suitable Becouse we WANT to farseek in turn 2 if we dont have the Elf, so ioos better than wait for turn 3, to lantern or Haven

The Deck Do pretty well mana, (ive Added 3 More, Most Forests) Becouse of Urban Evolution, Hardly you will not have things to cast, The Deck remains a Prototype, But is MUCH fun to my Actual Deck You Shall Not CAST! (Maybe), and proved to imput respect Versus Aggro Boys, Like Boros (Mostly Mono Red with Anoyng Withe Creatures) The Cyclonic Rift Does The Best Art Work of the deck, and Mizzium COOL DOWN the Burning Vengence of the Deck, I hope you Enjoy, Alecc Out !

gaymer, 12 years ago

I'm still fiddling around with the mana base and how many artifacts actually need to go into the deck to ensure not only useful affinity but metalcraft.

Aristocrats added

discodamo, 12 years ago

Added 3 aristocrats for 1 geralf's messenger and 2 thatcher revolt

How to Use this

Jaxonblade, 12 years ago

Ok so most of you can see what this deck is doing, get a Glistener Elf, Blight Mamba or Ichorclaw out, swing like the bejesus and then throw any and all instants at it. Wasteland Viper and Slaughterhorn are only ever used for their bloodrush ability, but an argument can be made that they can be used out of desperation. Vines of Vastwood works like a hexproof if someone decides to burn your main attacker.

In Comes Doubling Season

Isella, 12 years ago

I got a couple Doubling Season so instead of 3 Parallel Lives I now run one of those and 2 Doubling Season. I'll eventually be running 3 Doubling Season whenever funds allow. :)

Changed land

Dodificationer, 12 years ago

Added 2 Kessig Wolf Runs and 2 Nephalia Drownyards to add in some extra possible win cons. Also balanced keyrunes, more Boros and Dimir to go with Wolf Runs.

Version 3.0

jias3333, 12 years ago

Guess I now have to give credit to Tom Martell because now through playtesting my deck is pretty much exactly 'The Aristocrats' but I arrived at it by my own means. My sideboard is different however based on the meta at my friday night magic location and the guys decks who i playtest with. But since I've changed to this deck I pretty much haven't lost a best of 3 in 2 weeks.

Ben92, 12 years ago

All my shit dope.
