Hey Frank......got a funny one for ya.

Heh. The whole idea behind this was to make the jankiest deck alive that was
still able to win a tournament. What I set out to do was to make people be
embarrassed when they lost to this deck. I also had recently read about the
MesaCraft deck.....didn't know what it was but I read up on earthcraft and
noticed a very easy to setup infinite pony loop. I also noticed how easy
it was to get infinite mana out of it also. A three card setup is almost as
easy to setup as prosbloom, if not easier. Since you are not depending on
getting the right cards in a prosperity, it is actually more dependable. With
the infinite critter loop coming from the mesa/craft/growth on a plains setup,
you can get infi-critter by turn 4. Along with that infi loop, you can combine
an extra growth to get infinite green and drop a fireball or infistream of
life. Heh...nothing worse than losing to an opponent with infinite life. Even
if they manage to kill all the critters after the setup and get rid of a key
component, no deck out there can deal with infinite life...except this deck.

It has a good ability to get a 5th turn kill, it can deck via prosperity and
63card deck, it can fireball, or it can outlast via stream. Only bad side of
it is it lobotomy. But with 8 counter in base and an additional 8 in side, it
shouldn't lose much to lobotomy.

The best thing about it is this. It looks so junky, that if you are unknown in
your town you will get first round wins easy. People don't respect wild growth
and steam of life =P. Some also dont like powersink and mem lapse still.

So here she goes:
