MTG Salvation

I come from the grave! after years of slumber to bring you some words of wisdom! so i've been looking at these past couple pages and I see some wide variations to this beloved deck, i've noticed the cut out of blue, and eggs strangely enough, and since they did i keep hearing how counterspells are kicking your guys butt. I find that incredibly strange because the deck is extremely resistant to counters, extrememly so, as in going up against two force of wills and a flusterstorm is comfortable. the deck still pulls out very different and interesting games even 3 to 4 years later. this is the list I run and it is very very tuned and does its job very well. which are the three things this primer talks about, generates mana, filters mana, and draws cards. I find more of the time that this deck is played it is do to pilot error more than the deck itself that loses. it does depend a lot on what mana colors you choose before you draw, generally the colors you should be leaving open is a single blue, a single red, and two black

other sideboard slots are flex depending on the meta, also this deck mainboard is exactly 61 card, and they have served me well. I have put in several hundred hours in playing the deck and my nephew far more than that.

hey spooky, i love your decks and i find them quite fun. one of my favorites is the phasenaught deck. what would you do to perhaps upgrade it? would adding black or an isochron scepter? be viable?

Draft deck tonight was just stupid, went U/R artifact burn deck that kicked waay too much face. wish i was in a bigger tournament.

• 2 Aeronaut Tinkerer
  
• 3 Lightning Strike
  
• , 2 Shrapnel Blast,
  
• 2 Cone of flame
  
• 2Glacial Crasher,
  
• 2 Scrapyard Mongrel

some more burn, draw and some counter spells and supporting artifact creatures. destroyed lots of face.

did you feel you werent fast enough during the burn and midrange match ups? and i beleive the god was not what your deck needed. you did not need a 3 mana 5/5 guy when you already have the nemisis of mortals and jarad and nighthowler .
(p.s why are my tags being weird.) jarad is not highlighting

well, seeing how you dont want to play black, one the biggest decision making colors in magic. what do you consider "fun"

what i would like to point out to everyone is that this thread is incredibly similar to the BG combo version of this deck, and the dredge version of this deck. which i would like to point out is already in competative established. to make this deck overall smoother, if you are going dredge, enchantments. i would pick the card immortal servitude

i personally think this card will end up in a blue black rogue type deck that can do interesting shenanigans. the fact is that its a 3 mana for a 3/1 rogue that can be further reduced by some other cards. its mad scary.

i like it

from what i understand you cast the spell that targets his and your guy which activates the triggered ability. triggered ability goes off first. which means he gets to sac whoever he wants including the guy you targeted.

hmm dunno, got a S&W 500 revolver .50 caliber and other rifles and interesting guns, the guns definitly big enough if i dont kill it it least it will be really deaf. or ill be really deaf and pull a rabbit foot out of my ass, my family has a habit of that, and surviving things we really shouldn't.

Quote from IrishZombie

Yeah, I've noticed that cutting some of my slivers out of the deck made my other slivers less formidable. I've gone ahead and replaced the Ranger's Guiles with 3 Striking Slivers and a Megantic Sliver. That makes just about half of my creatures slivers, which I think should be just about enough.



Part of the reason I'm posting here is because I have almost no idea what to do with my sideboard. That said, I'm not splashing for a third color. Since I'm on a budget, the only duals I'm using are gates, so running two colors is precarious enough as is.

in reality, not so. your slivers naturally generate other colors as it is. if you are extremely diehard on two colors then get rid of the mana generating sliver. you have better things to do with them. and you dont need to really worry about lands too much i can run this deck with nothing but basics with almost no problem. people have been spoiled with non basics for a while but tradiontial rootbound crag is incredibly cheap. adding black white or blue generally adds a lot of utility for slivers for cheap because slivers are in all colors.

i have to comment on your side board here for a little bit. its looks like it doesnt help much in matchups because they dont do something devastating to the enemys game plan. and what it looks like what you really need is to add some black and some black slivers. rakdos charm is neat for sideboards. and the black lifelink sliver is also decent for the match up. and you need some real hosers in the deck. since you are slivers you need more of em because they are very synergistic. ill put a list together that will have better adaptablility.



for instance this would be a far better core while still keeping the flavor of the deck intact and still be more powerful than your current version.

also i need to know the budget on the deck your running. for instance dreadbore is a card that is about 2 to 3 bucks. if you are having problems with planes walkers. rakdos charms can help dealing with tokens. graveyard strategys and pesky artifacts. another really powerful card is door of destiny.

im totally circumsizing my boys. knowing them, they are going to get in all kinds of weird crazy and worrying situations. the last thing i want to worry about is their ***** rotting off. and two, it simply looks better. if you look at the sources that blatch put up, which can be used in a university paper i might add, it protects from stds and keeps the ***** dry. which of course im going to do all i can to protect my boys

well, you do have to consider we have almost a military base in almost every country in the world. im pretty sure we pissed somebody off.
