Hallo,
This is my first deck posted to the Dojo and i hope i sent it to the
right EMail address :-). I threw this deck together to play apprentice
(post-US) against my friend's post-US Oath deck, but it seems to do
rather well against other deck styles. Enough, here's the deck:

SneakForLife (can't find a better name though)

Land
3 Island
3 Mountain
6 Forest
4 Reflecting Pool
4 City of Brass
+ 4 Mox Diamonds (speed is needed, wouldn't include birds --> oath, but
may also be reduced to 2, or substituted by LotusPetals)
TheCreatures:
4 Bottle Gnomes  \the life gain
4 Spike Feeder   /(pump avatar)
4 Serra Avatar  (BOMB, also with Oath)
TheCombo:
4 Sneak Attack \sneak out Avatar
4 Fling        /then Fling (if you didn't know...)
TheSupport: (not sure here, the deck isn't fine-tuned yet, so you
might              add/remove stuff for your own taste)
4 Survival of the Fittest (maybe too many?)
4 Mirri's Guile (see Survival)
4 Portent (really good, shouldn't be removed as is Brainstorm)
4 Brainstorm (i like portent better, but...you need them)

OK, that's it. I think you've already figured out how to play this deck.
Cast out a SneakAttack as fast as possible and sneak out your Avatar,
attack and then Fling it to your opponent.
Example:
1st turn: Island, Mox Diamond, Brainstorm, Portent (happens very often,
trust me, and play the Brainstorm first :-)
2nd turn: Forest, Spike Feeder (block or attack, then sac)
3rd turn: Mountain, Sneak
4th turn: Avatar (Sneak), attack, Fling if blocked or not enough damage.

OK, that's it. I said it's not tuned yet and so, if you have suggestions
for the deck or a sideboard...send it to me. I would be very glad.
