Subject: G/U TimRyder Date: Thu, 12 Feb 1998 23:15:10 -0400 (AST) From: Glenn MacEachern To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com This is basically a G/U deck that I designed, it's your basic Green beatdown combined with some card-drawing and bounce stuff...it's alot of fun to play, quite consistant, and very deadly. TimRyder v1.0 Blue: 3 Tradewind Ryders (Da' Bounce) 4 Ophidians (These guys absorb alot of flak) 4 Tims (Creature Removal) 4 Fish Tims (MORE Creature Removal) Firewalkers may be substituted, however this deck runs lean on blue as it is, and the UU in the CC might be annoying.... Green: 4 Wildabeests (Don't like the wildabeest?? go to the BotN and read the article there...theese guys are DA BOMB) 4 Apes of Rath (other guys could be put in at your leisure) 3 Striped Bears (Da Bears +Da Beest=Card Advantage all over the place) 2 Jorael's Centaurs(STRONG, no room for more, I like fat more though..) 4 Llanowar Elf(Pound for Pound the best creature in MTG:) 4 Quirion Elves(Good too, 2nd source of Blue too) 4 Quirion Rangers(Hmm...8 elves, 8 tims? theese guys rock) Land: Nothing special here, not sure bout distribution though, could be either 14 forests 6 Islands or 13-7 Sideboard: I admit, I'm a scrub when it comes to sideboards, maybe put in Scraggy against Blue, Dervishes against Black...I don't know...do whatever you like here:) I'm playing this deck in a small T2 this Saturday, stay tuned for more coverage:) Glenn MacEachern Glenn on IRC Never bet 'gainst the beatdown :)
