Subject: B/R deck Date: Wed, 8 Apr 1998 20:09:41 +0200 From: Haugen family To: "'fkusumot@ix.netcom.com'" Hi Frank, Here's an idea I've been working on, focusing on Urbourg Stalker and Forsaken wastes to deal damage with tons of red burn. It turned out better than I thought and has a lot of potential to do well in the post Stronghold environment. I call it "Forsaken Edict" 4 Urbourg Stalker 4 Forsaken Wastes 4 Nekrataal 3 Black Knight 4 Diabolic Edict 2 Death Stroke 4 Incinerate 4 Kindle 4 Shock 2 Fireblast 3 Kaervek's Torch 4 Rocky Tar Pit 4 Cinder Marsh (you'd be crazy to use Sulfurous Springs) 8 Swamps 6 Mountains Sideboard: 3 Perish (everybody that plays green go ahead and cry, it's not going to get banned) 3 Dread of the Night 2 Gloom 1 Death Grip 1 Death Stroke 1 Kaervek's Torch 4 Shatter (this is the only hope of artifact removal for this deck) Weenie Decks curl up and die to it, and Gerrard's Wisdom and Necro Decks can't rely on life as a resource or delay of game. There is enough removal to eliminate Sligh, and Kaervek's Torch is the perfect game ender for Blue. Help me out and try it for me. I'd like to see some critique from foreign influences. I also have an idea for a B/R Sligh deck composed of mainly black weenies with red burn and creatures, and I have thousands of ideas for decks implementing the many uses of the Man of S Justin Haugen (a.k.a. the Evangelist of Magic)
