agianst the odds: full art

Inspired by a conversation on the mtggoldfish twitch stream, I set out to conceptualize a deck made entirely of full art cards, and with the relativity small pool of cards that restriction means, this grixis control-ish deck was the best I could come up with.

I know it might be a bit cheaty to include the expedition lands in the list of "full art" cards, but honestly, I cant imagine this deck trying to work off of basics when it is three colors running both Cryptic Command and Sign in Blood.

the by far worst part of this deck is the creature base, if you could even call it that, as the only full art creatures are a cycle of commons from time spiral. with this in mind, it might not be a bad idea to main deck a fireball or two, just to close out games.

If you include the game day promos that are "full art" but not text-less, the creature base gets much better, with cards like Trueheart Duelist and Glorybringer coming immediately to mind.

this deck could also drop red for white, gaining some enchantment hate and an bit better removal, but sacrficing the burn that red provides.

also be warned, this is completely conceptual list and has not been tested in any sense of the word, do not take my ideas as law.
