Creature (1)


Time for shell deck #3! This time it's a unique take on the Gruul aggro decks of yore. The pal o' mine asked for aggression, and I'm giving him a fun mix of such in the form of a race in lifetotals due to cards like Risk Factor and the Phyrexian creatures. He's playin' it all turn 4, so beatdown is the goal here. Wargear helps, especially with some creatures who wanna fight, or just don't mind dying in combat. Mageslayer and Galvanic Blast (I see you, ZAP!) are for when the opponent needs one last push over the edge to keel over and die. As his favorite tribal is Phoenix due to a dumb joke we made, Kuldotha Phoenix fits the bill as the mandatory card. It even works well as discard fodder for more Risk Factors, as it either whittles the opposition away, or refreshes his hand with more ways to barrel down on his enemies. And due to the Metalcraft sub-theme, the Phyrexian creatures and equipment let him hit harder, sling stronger spells, and allow more blazing birds to take to the skies!

As usual any general suggestions would be appreciated so I may better build decks given my limited scope of the cards in this game. I aim for a mix of decks that are both fun to play with, as well as somewhat competitive. Also note that these are SHELLS, so they are meant to be built upon as one sees fit and to be affordable, as some modern decks make my wallet cry in anguish(DAMN YOU SLIVERS!!!).
