MTG Salvation

In case you are confused, I merged all of the random card of the day threads together into this thread. If you are looking for today's card of the day, go to the last page of this thread.

I want to try out a new idea in the casual forums. It's no secret that johnnies and casual players like to try making bad cards work. So, once a day I will pick a random card from gatherer, then I will list it in this forum. Then everyone can post responses with cards or decklists that go well with the card of the day.

If you have any questions or comments about this idea, feel free to respond.

The card that I picked for 3/24/13 is a tough one to make work. It is the dreaded Clay Statue.

I would probably do something like Clay Statue + Blade of the Bloodchief + Savage Twister, then make the rest of the deck green creature ramp like Sakura-Tribe Elder and red burn.

The card for 3/25/13 is Shoreline Salvager.

The card for 3/26/13 is Hypersonic Dragon

The first card to comes to mind for me is Earthquake.

The card for 3/27/13 is Gauntlet of Power

I would probably use the gauntlet for my version of Elfball. The elves help to get the gauntlet out on turn three or four. Then the elves get bigger from the gauntlet. And while your opponent is trying to fend off all of your elves, you finish them off with a big Fireball.

The card for 3/28/13 is Crusade.

I understand that this one is obvious. "I would put it in a white weenie deck".
I also understand that there is a card that makes this one obsolete. But feel free to post a combo or decklist with this card if you think it is interesting. For example, maybe you have a deck that uses the combo Crusade + Meekstone + Kismet + Whim of Volrath.

The card for 3/29/13 is Thoughtweft Gambit.

Boy this is a tough one. If you plan on casting this before the game is over, you'll probably either need ramp or a way to reduce the cost of thoughtweft gambit. After that, I would probably add lots of creatures that destroy tapped creatures like Royal Assassin or Stalking Assassin.

The card for 4/01/13 is Orim's Touch.

To me, it looks like a slightly more versatile version of Healing Salve. I'm having a tough time figuring out a use for this card. Since you can decide between whether to prevent 2 or 4 damage, maybe it would go well with a creature that you want to take some damage but not enough to kill it like Fungusaur.

The card for 4/02/13 is Ray of Distortion.

Another tough one. Since you can use it twice, I would probably combine it with cards that can turn permanents into artifacts or enchantments.
