I am trying a deck like this but with Bloodghast and Reassembling Skeleton while they are both still legal. They would work well with Infestation. Also running Vengeful Pharaoh in it along with some blue for draw capability.
So far in the Casual games in MTGO this deck is doing amazing. Won't take it up against the big decks until I get some help tweaking maybe a few details.
1) Meant to set a Poison Counter in whatever way then Proliferate up to 10.
2) So far I am loving the Counter Spell package in this. Fuel for the Cause has been solid as just a 2 of.
3) I am considering -1 Foresee +1 Into the Roil but maybe I should get rid of Foresee and add 1 Roil and 1 Black Sun?
4) I think I can cut an Ichor Rat for maybe one of the cards I mentioned above as well. I may keep them though and move Virulent Wound to the sideboard. Thoughts on that? Virulent Wound has done its work but sometimes you just match up versus Control and its a waste.
5) The 1 of Corrupted Conscience has been AWESOME! It has grabbed a 3/3+ every time so far and caused major havoc. However I wouldn't add anymore to the deck.
6) I need to build an entire Sideboard obviously still. As mentioned I think Virulent Wound will get moved to the SB.
PLEASE! Play test this decklist and give me some thoughts/ideas! I wanted to build a Control Infect deck and so far I love this.
I think I came up with a Sideboard but haven't bought the cards yet to test.
Any time another Ally enters the battle field Turntimber's effect triggers. The creature type you choose when the Wolf token enters the battlefield is Ally.
When is the next rotation and what is rotating out? Sorry I haven't played with actual cards in awhile and I just rarely play on mtgo but may start back soon. Didn't want to buy a lot of cards that will rotate soon.
I am a casual magic player and do not know the actual stories for the characters in the game but I was assuming Karn was going to be a big infected creature for this set(Because of some of the new cards with his image in them and quotes about him) but instead he is a walker? Does this flow with the story?
2 or 3 of in Sideboard vs Caw, Boros, Elves, or another blitz type. Besides that? Some fun decks that will most likely fail. I could see it squeezed in as a 1 of in some 1 or 1.5 decks but not a focal point.
EDIT3: So far it isn't bad. Control decks wreck it. I really think the Hero of Oxid Ridge would be awesome in this. To bad he is $8 a piece. His battle cry+haste would be very nice.
EDIT4: I just realized how bad having the Hand of Emrakul and Jinxed Idol in the same deck is. You give them Idol and if you attack with the hand the Annihilator sac's their now Idol lol
Haven't played a ton of magic in the recent months but have been jonesing lately to play so I decided to make a fun Budget deck. Its a simple idea and I quite enjoy playing it.
Perilous Myr is our MVP so far due to him working well with Rebirth and Allergy. Nighthawk is our close second.
Not really all the way up to date on all the new cards but are there any other cards that would fit into this deck? Obviously I am missing all of the duel lands and Ob Nixilis would fit in this well but it is Budget and I am not quite sure on the price tag for it to stay budget.
If Venser, the Sojourner bounces Exc Rit can they now not cast both cards? Or just the last exiled?

Hopefully Jace isn't reprinted lol!
Wasn't Karn a creature in a prior set?
EDIT: OOPS didnt see some of these posts.

Just was curious. I am sure the Myr isn't the best T2 play in an aggro deck but it could set up for some big swings for T3-4.
What is the basic RDW deck now a days? I see some lists with heavy damage via spells, some heavy creatures and some mix?
EDIT: Probably wouldnt be bad to have a few Kozilek's Predators in here either.
