Building this for a fun casual deck to take to local tournaments. It's a pretty casual meta so I think I'll have a lot more fun playing this over Tier 1 netdecks. It's basically an old extended zoo deck with a few changes.
That's what I'm starting with, it's loaded with a lot of my favorite staples that I never get to play with. Even being 5 colours it's a fairly cheap manabase to buy. I mean probably the average price for one dual land, for the entire base. The only expensive card in it is noble hierarch, the rest are reasonable. I'm bored of taking merfolk to every legacy tournament and I just wanted to build an aggro deck that doesn't run all of the same creatures as every other aggro deck, and didn't cost ridiculous amounts of money. I think there's enough disruption/removal/good creatures available to the manabase for it to at least stand a chance against other legacy decks.
Another really cool thing about the deck is it's practically all modern legal. so when modern catches on where I live I'll at least have something that I can take to tournaments.
Does anyone out there have a similar legacy deck that they play? Or have any ideas for this? (other than hope they don't have wastelands or blood moons?)
