Subject: DECKS TO BEAT, prosbloom Date: Mon, 22 Jun 1998 00:46:05 EDT From: Homma7@aol.com To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com Sup mr. dojo man, Here is a deck that has been bustin' out 3rd turn kills like crazy. 4 cadaverous bloom 4 prosperity 4 natural balance 4 infernal contract 4 impulse 3 meditate 2 abeyance 2 power sink (superior to memory lapse, IMHO) 4 vampiric tutor (4 is the right #, IHMO) 4 squandered resources 2 drain life (nice too have back up) SB: 3 elephant grass, 3 chill, 3 wall of roots, 1 abeyance, 2 power sink, 3 emerald charm This deck has been killing all lately. It busts out third turn kills quite often. All you need is squandered , balance, contract or meditate or cad bloom. I think 4 prosperities instead of less is the right way to go, I have never failed to draw one 3rd turn after i contract or meditate, and that fact usually wins the game most of the time. I also feel that 4 tutors are the way to go because a faster combo is better before sideboarding (then you can put in more prevention), and can win games against control from raw speed (see third turn kill). This version has seem to prevail on most of the last ditch efforts verses sligh and other speed kill decks ( i think the fourth prosperity is da key). Well , enough babling. Lata all playas, deal wid it herbs! ?'s & comments to the Big Pun, scraight outta NC (type 1 land), to Homma 7@aol.com Jon Haimes
