"Turbo Bounce" Blue: 4 Ophidian 4 Man-o-War 4 Tradewind Rider 4 Wall of Tears 1 Intruder Alarm 4 Counterspell 4 Mana Leak 4 Dismiss 4 Time Warp (!) 3 Capsize Mana: 4 Mind Stone 4 Sapphire Meddalion 16 Island Comments:i hate playing blue without 4 whispers and 4 impulse but this deck didnt have room for them. the idea is too draw cards early with satan, build up mana quickly, then start tradewind/capsizing them. Time Warp may seem like a strange choice but it works really good in this deck. 5 mana is no problem for this deck to build up and another turn of tradewinding/capsizing without them being able to play the card u just bounced is importent. Intruder Alarm is only in here to use with man-o-war, so u could bounce all your opponents permanets in 1 turn. here is the correct version of that 5cw control deck i sent to u yesterday. "5cw control" White: 4 Orim's Prayer 4 Humility 4 Wrath of God 4 Gerrard's Wisdom 1 Enlighted Tutor 1 Aura of Silence Blue: 4 Whispers 4 Impulse Green: 3 Gaea's Blessing 1 Sylvan Library Red: 1 Searing Touch - good with humility 1 Fireball - u can recurse this for another kill method Artifact: 2 Grindstone 1 Jester's Cap 1 Scroll Rack - so many ways to use this card effectivly in this deck Land: 4 Reflecting Pool 4 Gemstone Mine 4 Thalakos Lowlands 12 Plains SB: 4 Sacred Ground - u really need this 4 Disenchant 1 Aura of Silence 3 Pyroblast 2 Warmth 1 Perish the sb takes care of the only real concerns to this deck, winter orb and geddon. i found out what geddon does to this deck yesterday when this deck lost it's first game.
