Deck One (no real name, blue bounce)

4 Counterspell
4 Mana Leak
4 Impulse
2 Capsize
3 Intruder Alarm
2 Legacy's Allure
4 Tradewind Riders
4 Man-o-wars
4 Ophidian
2 Cloud Elemental
2 Waterspout Djinn

4 Sapphire Medallion

2 Quicksand
18 Island

SB:
2 Suq'ata Firewalker (may replace these with Propaganda)
2 Capsize
3 Dissipate
4 Chill
4 Hydroblast

The deck is very strong.  I have played against fish, 5c sligh, white weenie
and big blue.  It has done really well.  It's not been in any tournaments
yet though.  Intruder alarm has worked suprisingly well.  Once you get
Tradewind-creature-creature and Alarm on the table, it's game.

I was thinking about putting in mox diamonds for speed purposes.  It also
helps against armageddon, porpaorb, etc.  I have been playing testing some
and there is nothing like getting out a first turn medallion. :)

All feedback is welcome

Deck Two (again no name, five color green)

Green (14):
4 Bird of Paradise
2 Skyshroud Elves
4 Jolreal's Centaurs
4 River Boa

Black (3):
3 Diabolic Edict

Red (5):
4 Incinerate
1 Firestorm

White (6):
3 Disenchant
3 Armageddon

Blue (8):
4 Mana Leak
2 Impulse
2 Tradewind Rider

Artifact (4):
4 Mox Diamonds

Land (20):
4 Gemstone Mines
3 Undiscovered Paradise
9 Forests
4 Islands

SB:
3 Scragnoth
4 Pyroblast
4 Hydroblast
2 Uktabi Orangutan
2 Propaganda

This deck is less play tested but so far so good.  I am new to green so I
have questions about my green creature selection.  I love the centaurs but I
don't know about the Boa's.

Once again, all feedback is welcome
