Subject: Stolen Pebbles Varient of FP Date: 22 Dec 1997 06:05:38 GMT From: prbastrd@uclink2.berkeley.edu (John PB Sugden) Newsgroups: rec.games.trading-cards.magic.strategy A Fruity Pebbles Varient without red. Play with to your heart's content: 4 Altar of Dimentia 4 Helm of Awakening 4 Metallic Slivers 4 Enduring Renewal 4 Enlightened Tutor 4 Mneomic Slivers (optional) plenty Counter Magic 4 Lotus Petals 4 Adarkar Wastes 4 5 color lands plenty basic lands Advantages over Fruity Pebbles ... No need for red. Can't be stopped by damage prevention. GTet to use Slivers. Disadvantages .... until the combo is established, the only real means of defense is countermagic/Wrath/etc ....Fewer recycling creature options (only 4 Metallic Slivers). If you cast the helm of Awakening before the Combo is finished, your opponent can prosper from it. John -- John Sugden, Graduate of Economics (U.C.
