Free Creatures? Yes please!

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Do you want to play creatures for the grand price of FREE? NOW YOU CAN!!!! For the simple, easy "one-time" cost of one blue, red, and green mana. And then, all your dreams can come true!!!!!!

Using only affinity and straight-up creature cost reduction YOU, yes you, can cast even large creatures for next to NOTHING!!!!!!

Now on a serious note, the deck works by casting animar and then building his 2nd ability up by casting lots of low cost creatures. Using Aether vial, planar gate, and affinity for artifacts (Nicely provided by mycosynth golem) will make casting more creatures for free, easier. Then when you have enough +1/+1 counters on Animar, and the other cost reduction spells, you cast Platinum Emperion.

Sorry for the lengthy description...

ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Actually because paying life is the cost of untapping him and your life can't change, you can not pay the price to untap him. That is my understanding of it anyway. Someone can correct me if I am wrong.

This remembers me a deck I made some time ago. Take a look at it for some input: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=148380

Also remember that creatures that enters the game with Æther Vial doesn't add counters to Animar, cause they're being put directly in the game not being cast.

While that is true, this deck doesnt really care, its about free creatures... which is what Æther vial does.
