I've been out of the magic scene for a while, and I've been missing my EDH. So I'm rebuilding a few of my favorite decks in anticipation of some Tuesday night EDH. The first of my decks is going to be Nin, the Pain Artist, one of my favorite generals in my favorite color combination.
I like the play the deck with as few permanents as possible, choosing to run more spell spells than creatures, artifacts, and enchantments. Spell mastery is the game for this deck, and I usually have a good time playing a deck like this, so fun is a main concern while remaining competitive.
That's what I have for now, largely based off my old deck, I've been out of the game for a few sets now (since NPH I think). So my card selection is older, but suggestions of new cards is greatly appreciated. Let me know what you think.
