Survival :)

by Arcticsniper on 10 November 2011

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Instants (4)


Enchantments (4)

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

As a friend of mine plays a very strong mono white human deck that is pretty fast (including hero of bladeholds, mirran crusaders, mentor of the meek, PW ...) i tried to build a deck that allows to survive by LP recovery.

As i recently discovered the tree of redemption (that is also an awesome blocker) i thought of combining it with mimic vat in order to switch LP any time needed.
So heres what i built:
The deck includes many counter spells and a few snap caster mages. Spell skites are also included as early blockers and spellcatchers. Gitaxian probe is for fast cycling and to know whats going on.
The key card for winning the game is the invisible stalker, which equipped with a sword does a really fine job.

The sideboard includes hex parasites that cripple any token based card (such as PW, tumble magnets ...)

The actual deck is very efficient vs the white human deck i mentioned. Its funny to play as i only need a few cards on the battlefield to surive and to finally win :)


Tell me what you think about the deck. Your comments are appreciated.

Why Body and Mind when Feast and Famine keeps your lands untapped for counters and flashing in the snapcaster? Also makes them discard a card.

good idea :) ill try them next time. i only thought of using feast and famine as it gives a really nice option to discard the enemy pile. but you are right, sword of feast and famine fits even better and provides enough mana for counter spells and mimic vat.

You might consider Acidic Slime (either main, or sideboard). Mimic Vat + Acidic Slime would really wreak havoc.
