Looking for Fun Deck challenge (Not Budget Challenge!)

General forum

Posted on Dec. 2, 2013, 4:07 a.m. by Dreno33

Hey guys, if any of you know me on here I am always looking to create very fun / weird / interesting decks and challenging myself to make them reality.

Now I would like a few fresh ideas some of you had thought of and I would love to try to create a deck around these ideas. Shoot away, magicians!


*No budget deck challenges please

ahh, here's a fun one, edh, Ramirez DePietro as general, in a pirate themed deck. I've been thinking about it off and on over the past few months. I think the way to go is using a few of the tribal pirates and Pirate Ship with spells that steal opponents things, such as Bribery , Acquire , Spelljack , lands such as Bazaar of Baghdad and Rishadan Port , I just haven't had the time to put together a deck list.

A deck using Selective Memory to reverse tutor, and allow what ever your favorite combo/s are to play. Essentially main-decking the sideboards. I am thinking it would take mostly fetches so the land does not gunk things up, and the normal answers lands. I dunno what do you think? I saw that card, and thought there had to be some way to use it. I have not looked to see if anyone has tried yet, and I have not tried my self either.

Selective Memory is, as you said, a perfect card for combo T1-type decks.

you cast it with those mana ramps as such and then cast him to exile your deck to draw your combo-connector in your next phase of the combo.

However, on a personal level, I HATE those decks and would find it completely useless making it since I, nor would anyone else, enjoy myself playing it.

I'll leave it to you, Didgeridooda (:

Didgeridooda, bant, with Misthollow Griffin and Food Chain combo and include Riftsweeper to do it all over again.

I am not a combo guy, so I will not be doing it. Just an idea I had. I am trying to think of ideas that I have not seen before. I will let you know if I come up with something.

Wow that is exactly the kind of thing I was thinking would be possible with Selective Memory . Just did not know the cards, other then Food Chain

alright, my first idea tonight (very simple) was based off of the card "Gilt-Leaf Archdruid ."

  • Lots of mana ramp and steal all the lands! Plus a few big dudes since most druids tap for mana.

Here's the first draft of it: IDC the color, I still want them

How about using Enter the Infinite putting a Bronze Bombshell on top of your library, followed by a Shared Fate and a Windfall ? You can use Dream Halls to combo out on turn 5 or earlier.

A deck made of nothing but CMC=2 spells.
