Hey Frank.
This is the first time I've tried to post a deck.  I think it's a pretty good
concept.  I like the new Exodus card Spellshock and I tried to come up with a
deck to support it.  It did ok in a local Rath Cycle tourney and I hope you
post it so others can comment to me on it.  Well here it is:

Red:
4  Mogg Fanatics
4  Kindles
4  Shocks
4  Spellshocks

White:
4  Soul Wardens
4  Soltari Monks
4  Soltari Priests
2  Paladin En Vecs (4 if I had em)
2  Knight of Dawns  (To make up for the lack of Paladins)
4  Shaman En Kors
4  Warrior En Kors
4  COP Reds

Land:
7  Mountains
1  Scabland (More if I had em)
1  Reflecting Pool (optional.....)
13  Plains

Sideboard:
4  Disenchants
2 COP White
2 COP Green
2 COP Blue
3 COP Black
2 Knight of Dawn

Let me explain.....
The deck is 66 cards and that is only because of the 2 nonbasics and the
fanatics.  I left in the fanatics to help with the wardens to get life.  The
main combo is the spellshocks along with COP reds.  Play the spellshock and
prevent damage wihle opponent loses life with casting.  Even if you don't get
out the combo, it works well as a W/W with some backup in red.  It did well in
the tourney and in playtesting.  Against sligh, once you make it past the
first couple of turns, you can usually get the game in a lock and win through
Priest and Kors.  Against Hatred or Suicide black,  the shadows and DD stop
any real threats.  The only problems was against Bouncy Blue and another
"PURE" W/W.  Just no real defense in a Rath Cycle tourney and hence the
sideboard of COPs.  I'm not good at making one, and I only sideboarded in the
Disenchants in the actual games.

Anyway, please post the deck and any comments and criticism is welcome.
