Jan 16, 2009Cavius The Great posted a message on Attention Wizards: Get rid of Mythic Rares IMMEDIATELY.I don't think Mythic Rares are a big deal. In time, they will be though, as soon as the set goes out of print which may pose as a problem. But until then, I rather score an Eventide foil rare than a mythic Shards of Alara card or any other set that came before Shards and happens to be out of print.Posted in: Surging Chaos's Realm of Ruination

Blood Artist is nasty. Also good with Forbidden Orchard. I need to find room for him, I'm not sure if I can though.
Move it to wherever you see fit. I'm discussing the card as a whole as well as possible deck possibilities. I apologize for not posting it in the right forum section.
Today I wish to discuss a very overlooked and powerful card called Night of Souls' Betrayal. This card, along with Hunted Phantasm and Hunted Troll gave me the base idea for a deck. After playtesting a bit with a sample decklist I came to the conclusion that cheap fatties regardless of synergy make good additions to the deck. I was sick and tired of people countering and bouncing my key creature spells that I decided to add Gaea's Revenge into the mix.
The deck was solid enough winning me some games here and there and further compelled me to share my findings. Here is the list I'm referring to, let me know what you think.
1 Treetop Village
3 Forbidden Orchard
3 Island
3 Swamp
3 Forest
3 Breeding Pool
3 Watery Grave
3 Reflecting Pool
2 Overgrown Tomb
2 Hunted Troll
3 Gaea's Revenge
4 Night of Souls' Betrayal
4 Mana Leak
4 Spell Pierce
4 Abrupt Decay
4 Inquisition of Kozilek
4 Rampant Growth
3 Compulsive Research
4 Infest
4 Pithing Needle
3 Krosan Grip
4 Maelstrom Pulse
This is it. My main goal is to ramp mana, resolve key spells protected by counters and bash face with efficient large creature's who's bodies laugh in the face of the legendary enchantment. So now that you have a glimpse of what I mean, let me know if I'm overlooking any cards for the deck which is my main concern. As well as discuss ideas that would make this deck better. I hope to hear from you guys It's been a while. I look forward to all of your feedback! Thanks!
Im referring to simply leaving the battlefield. Back in the day you were able to kill a Rainbow Efreet in response to it leaving play, and if your opponent was tapped out it would die. I need a clarification regarding the stack and if the triggered ability will save the creature. It was never like that in the past thats why im asking since it was brought up in a MWS game. I basically need to know if Norin the Wary is an unkillable creature. I'm like WTF? will two removal spells not kill it?
If he had multiple copies it would work.... Removal would act like someone countering your first FoW cast but x2 and you win the game. Any search card would help facilitate multiple copies.
Emrakul also > Progenitus, in every way except he can't be pitched to FoW but that's not really a big deal if you run a sufficient blue count with considerable card quality.
Cut the creeping tar pit for +1 Island and +1 Swamp.
Oh i see what you're saying, you don't get two attack phases. Great suggestion though and definitely warrants a SB slot if I can fit them in at the least. Right now that potential slot is occupied by Mental Misstep.
Rider is a free spell. Egotist costs 3U as well costing a color that I do not run. Good suggestion though regardless. Allosaurus Rider/Egotist also will let me run Rush of Knowledge but Im still debating its win more factor.
Ah just found it.... Urabrask the Hidden seems like the card was designed for eureka considering the negative impact it has on ur opponent's creatures when coming into play.
Well, Gencon is a big reason nowadays..... I wouldnt want to miss a Vintage Championship becuase i didnt actually own the cards.
You are correct. Also nothing too decent at nine mana besides Blazing archon and stormtide leviathian basically fills that role as well as deal more damage.
Good suggestion. I will be testing 2-4. starting at two since having colored mana in your opening hand as a necessary thing and an 18 land count could pose as an issue.
All great suggestions. I like Weird harvest. I will test x2 in the Krosan Grip slot.
