[152][Type 4][Budget] ╠ Stacked Between Walls ╣ Feedback Welcome



This is my [Type 4 / Stack / Limited Infinity] deck. It is definitely a work in progress, but the cool thing about this format is that it doesn't matter if we don't have a good balance of ...well, anything. Colors don't matter, costs don't matter, and we all use the deck as a shared library (with individual graveyards) so any game is literally ready within 10 seconds.


General:
Drawing from a single deck and using separate graveyards, all players begin play with a starting hand of X cards where X is the number of players, 10*X life, and one of these:
Emblem
Snow
You may only cast one spell from your hand each turn.
:0mana:: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.
:symtap:, Exile a card from your hand: Draw a card. (Untap this card at the beginning of your untap step.)

There is a maximum hand size of 7. Card 'ownership' takes effect when cards first enter a player's hand, graveyard, or enter the battlefield under a player's control. Some stacks use errata that allows "free" spells. We don't follow this trend, and instead play cards according to their original intent. Unearth & Suspend count toward spell-count and cards that refer specifically to casting other cards are fully useable.

Card Selection:
  • No cards that would be able to 'go infinite' on their own are included. (firebreathers, some 'x' spells, pestilence effects, etc.)
  • No cards that shuffle the library are included. (it's a big library!)
This is our current list.
No card-drawing cards are included. (cantrips not included; this is due to our inability to balance the power of card advantage machines with so many instants in the stack)


Categories to be used:

Card Draw
  • Constant (1 per turn)
  • Single Effect

Defense
  • Counterspells
  • Permanent Removal (artifacts, enchantments, creatures)
  • Hand Disruption
  • Damage Redirection/Prevention
  • Lifegain
  • Graveyard Hate

Offense
  • Creatures
  • Artifacts
  • Enchantments
  • Other Spells (Sorceries, Instants)
Any feedback would be appreciated, as I'm sure there are plenty of cards that I haven't considered. Any card under $1 will be considered. This will eventually be around 300 cards. When the list hits that number, I'll post it to the cube forum for feedback.

I'm currently considering whether I want the stack to have any dedicated 'card draw' cards. Not sure that they're necessary with our exile-cycling rule.
