Subject: A deck Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 13:57:00 -0600 From: Scott P Lyle To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com Here's a deck I recently put togather. It's a U/B control 187 sort of thing. Blue: 4 Counterspell 4 Disspate 2 Powersink (Mana leak) 3 Impulse 4 Man o' War 4 Ophidian 3 Tradewind Riders Black: 3 Nekrataal 2 Diabolic Edict 1 Disturbed Burial 1 Vampric Tutor Gold: 3 Lobotomy Artifact: 3 Nevinrral's Disk Land: 11 Island 8 Swamp 1 Winding Canyons 1 Rootwater Depths 2 Underground River So far it seems to do pretty well, but takes a little while to get started. At a recent tournament here in Ames (See T. McCollum's report with the Tigger Deck) I played a 5CG and the phrase of the day was "I just can't do anything about those @!$^ing Tradewind Riders!" I've been thinking about adding the Firewalker Tim's because I had some recent problems with a shadow deck and being able to poke stuff worked really well at the tournament. I know this deck can be improved, so please help. I had green in it for a while for the sex monkeys, but I got mana screwed too many times. If nothing else, put this deck togather to use the Nekrataal/Tradewind thing on a green deck. It's really entertaining. Thanks again. --- It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice-there are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia. -Frank Zappa --- Scott Lyle http://www.public.iastate.edu/~slyle slyle@iastate.edu
