Subject: t2 Deck Date: Wed, 17 Jun 1998 17:27:02 -0400 From: Gakk86 To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com Red Blastdown Creatures: 16 4 Ball Lightning (6 possible damage for RRR, nuf said) 4 Suq' ata Lancer (good celerity critter) 4 Wildfire Emmisary (Mostly for defense, but can pump for extra damage) 2 Rathi Dragon (Would put in more but this deck needs mountains) 2 Ekundu Cyclops (good semi-cheap red fattie that cannot be Incinerated) Spells: 22 4 Fireball (The original and best X spell) 4 Shock (Dark Ritual-Marauder? fine by me:) ) 4 Incinerate (t2 bolt) 4 Lightning Blast (4 damage for 4 is nice) 4 Fireblast (Sac 4 mts. and you die) 2 Earthquake (great against the weenie B/W) Other: 2 2 Nevinyrral's Disk (I don't like what's in play, let's start over) Land: 24 20 Mountain 4 Quicksand (the greatest land against any speed creature deck, and kills pro red critters) Sideboard: 15 2 Shadowstorm (kills shadow tech decks) 2 Havoc (if played on the second turn, white players will just about kill themselves on their own) 2 Boil (Strong anti-blue) 2 Flashfire (strong anti-white) 4 Price of Progress (I've seen it do up to 16 damage for 1R, great sideboard for 5CG decks) 1 Disk (for combo decks that depend on artifact/enchantments) 2 Earthquake (for weenie/speed) This can be fast, and can last till the late game. I played in one tourney with it, went 5-1, and got t8/54 ppl due to a double mana screw in the semi's. This is also a great deck for beginners/scrubs because it conists of a really easy strategy (draw burn/play burn draw creatures/play creatures). I've also gotten 6th turn kills, which isn't bad. Often-times you will want to completely ignore your opponent's creatures and go straight for the flaming cheese kill. And beware, lots o' ppl will yell at you for being a beginner and a scrub for playing this--this only doubles the fun of winning. :) I don't know why I put descriptions for all the cards, hope this doesn't tick anybody off.
