Subject: Trade'Geddon Deck Date: Sat, 19 Sep 1998 09:19:07 -0400 From: Mark Smith To: fkusumot@ix.netcom.com Here is another successful Trade'Geddon variation. It's difference and strength lies with the greater number of combinations and card drawing due to the addition of the Stampeding Wildebeests and the Horn of Greed. This deck has won a couple of local tournaments and placed second in another.(Pretty fair since we only have one sanctioned tournament a month in this area.) DECK LIST GREEN 4 Bird of Paradise (Untap with Ranger equals more mana) 3 Quiron Ranger (Mr. Combination himself) 3 Granger Guildmage (Ping and let us not forget giving first strike to our creatures) 2 Stampeding Wildebeests (Trample, Large, recast green creatures) 2 Spike Feeder (Add a +1/+1, gain some life, block or attack, recast with wildebeests) 2 Wall of Roots (Add mana, nice blocker, recast with wildebeests) 2 Wall of Blossoms (Blocker, Card drawing engine with wildebeests) 1 Uktabi Orangutan (Artifact destroyed, blocker, attacker, recast with wildebeests) BLUE 3 Tradewind Rider (Bounce anything, nice blocker, another way to recast) 3 Mana Leak 2 Propaganda (Slows those fast creature attacks, with an Armageddon even better) RED 3 Incinerate (Takes care of most creatures with a ping from Mr. Guildmage) WHITE 3 Armageddon (Tradewind/Armageddon lock, remember you have the mana they don't) 1 Disenchant 1 Cloudchaser Eagle BLACK 1 Vampiric Tutor (Instead of 3 or 4 of a card, 2 or 3 might be suffice with this in the deck) 2 Dark Banishing (Pay one more and another way to kill an artifact creature also) ARTIFACT 2 Horn of Greed (With Ranger, can be insured of drawing an extra card each turn) 2 Mox Diamond (Any color mana and can mean a very fast start) LAND 10 Forest 3 Gemstone Mine 3 Undiscovered Paradise 3 City of Brass SIDEBOARD (As always, depends upon where your playing) 4 Pyroblast 3 Chill 2 Light of Day 2 Tropical Storm 2 Diabolic Edict 1 Disenchant 1 Armageddon
