Hello everyone, I thought I should post my real life EDH paper deck and see what everyone's opinions on it are. The main reason I'm posting this list on the forums is so I can get some constructive feedback (any contibutions are much appreciated!) on the deck. My main playgroup doesn't really have any rules as to what we can and can't play (LD, combo, even turn 3 wins are okay) because basicly everyone in my group plays trickbind, timestop, sudden spoiling, krosan grip and cards that ruin combo players like sadistic sacrament for example. No one really plays combo in my main playgroups because they're all afraid it will be stopped and then the whole table kills them off.
Although degenerate, I run knowledge pool, omen machine and eye of the storm when I need to, otherwise they are taken out. The three cards that replace them (for when my deck is too douchey for the playgroup) are palinchron (not sure about him TBH), forbid and soul conduit. I'm not entirely sure on what 3 cards i should run when eye, omen and pool are out, but the three previously mentioned are cards I enjoy playing. Feel free to post your thoughts on my choices, or if you could make any recommendations on what you would take out etc. Anywho, I won't bore you with any more details than that...
