Subject: Deck for the Deck Workshop Date: Wed, 10 Jun 1998 19:53:29 EDT From: MagicAndy1@aol.com To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com Hi Frank, please post this in the Deck Workshop, thanx. Info: Deck Name: Karn's Gnomes Color: Black My name: Andrew Steingrube "SteBottleNecroDance" or "SBND" Type 2... 18x Swamp 1x Volrath's Stronghold 4x Quicksand 4x Steel Golem 4x Bottle Gnomes 1x Necrosavant 4x Funeral Charm 3x Terror 4x Diabolic Edict 2x Dark Banishing 4x Nevinyrral's Disk 4x Necropotence 3x Corpse Dance 4x Drain Life Sideboard: 3x Perish 4x Gloom 2x Phyrexian Furnace 1x Terror I need 5 more cards, something to screw Blue. Bottomless Pit? This deck works like any other Necro deck. Kill all of early creatures, cast a 'Potence, fill your hand, Pop a Disk, drop some phat, and S-E-R-V-E. This deck biggest threat is anything with counters in it. 5C decks with Leaks don't count. Another problem is early game against quick decks. That is why there is so much anti-critter. However, I tested this deck out against Sligh and gave it a hand of: 3 Mountain, Jackal Pup, Flunky, Lancer, Ball Lightning. It proceeded to top-deck another Lancer and Ball Lightning and the Necro beat it. Strong testament, IMHO. I would really appreciate thoughts on this deck, as I am planning to play it in an upcoming 500$ tourney. Please, please send comments to MagicAndy1@aol.com Thanx a bunch, Andy
