This deck should be a lot of fun to play. I firmly believe that it is competitive enough to be a Tier 1 deck, given a little time. I had to discount the whole "56x Herbal Poultice" theme, because I want to be able to play without a disqualification. I know that I've had to sacrifice some of the strength of the deck to make it tourney-legal, but so be it. I also took out the Tarmogoyfs and green, focusing on a mono-blue theme instead. I'm just not sure yet what I want my sideboard to be. Can anyone make me any suggestions?

They love and hate to see me walk through the door. I'm the man with the box, one to carry all his Standard cards with him. I've got the commons and uncommons they need. But I've also got my decks. If I walk into FNM, I came to play. And they never know what I'm gonna pull out of my hat next. I may lose more than I win, but it just might be THIS deck that has all the answers that they don't have answers for. They fear the unknown. They fear me. And they never see me coming!

Well, I was trying to keep it monoblue, so the Hoodlums are out. Maybe I can put in 4x Boreal Shelf in the board for the Squire tho... is 3x Squire enough, or should it be a 4-of?

I propose that anyone offended by their commentary about Richie ("Good riddance that he is dead", ect.) NEVER credit these artists on custom cards where their art is used.
My cards will all have ComboFTW as the artist from now on.
OK guys, you people aren't running March of the Machines. What gives? Something is seriously wrong here.
Think about it: with March, your herbal poultice is a 0/0! It'll beat whoever you're playing against.
In the face.
Also: Definitely Tarmogoyf in. We should run Summoner's Pact too, to get Tarmogoyf. Maybe Dramatic Entrance, to play him as an instant [Now THERE's card advantage!].
my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan
Dude, it's broken! Our Herbal Poultice would actually generate mana when we play it! (0 - 1 = -1, so you have an extra mana to play whatever you want. Do the math.)
Also, Goyf should be defintely in. It's the best card in standard and the reason this deck is too good. And running an all artifact base, add squire and you have 8x goyf. That's what pros should do.

I just realized. Mycoloth perfectly demonstrates the devour mechanic.

One turn later, 1/1 turds come out.

btw i did it because i could. i was bored and decided to let my little med-free spree go ahead. I am bipolar, explaining all the drama that ensued after. I have problems.
Quote from ShadowWaveInc. »
Jon Finkel can simply walk into Mordor.
"When an artist dies the world loses two lives, that of the artist and that of his unfinished work."
The mods had to hide this thread. If everyone finds out about it then it'll be Skullclamp all over again.
Also I find that this deck loses whenever I can't draw a Poultice. To combat this, I've added four Tolaria Wests to find them, four Sylvan Scryings to find the Tolaria Wests, and four Beseech the Queens to find the Sylvan Scryings.
I can't believe that someone would really suggest that my Tier 0.5 (thx Madding) deck would need a creature as pitiful as Tarmogoyf to win. My deck concept of no maindeck cards with a casting cost above 0 just completely breaks the format, and now we are talking about adding a CMC 10? I think the mods are conspiring to destroy this deck before word gets out and the format totally skews.
Just so you know, mods, I REFUSE TO CHANGE MY DECKLIST! FIE ON TYRANTS!

what this deck needs is about 4 ornithopters. just for backup until the 'goyf arrives for the finish.
and add some pongify! you never know when you'll have to make that poultice into a monkey!

Needs more Bog Hoodlums and Squire.

Be sure to run 6 of each. also, 60 isn't the best amount of cards to have: the more the better. That way, you dominate the mirror.
This deck is good enough for vintage.
