****GAMEDAY DECK HELP****

by big-satch on 04 March 2011

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Instants (6)

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

Tonight at FNM, I ran a U/W Control deck that uses Shape Anew to drop Blightsteel Colossus as fast as possible. It played very well considering I am missing key cards like 3 Jace, the Mind Sculptor, but I got a Blightsteel Colossus in play every game except one and one match I got both in play. This deck plays pretty well and I am thinking of taking it to game day and would like some help maybe improving it. Also I threw in Choking Fumes because of the pesky kuldotha red. Also might throw in two Inkmoth Nexus if I can get them. Here is the current list:

Sideboard Explanation:
Leylines are for B/U, mono B, and mono R to help prevent discard and burn.
Luminarch is for mirror matches.
Spreading Seas is for Valakut.
Choking Fumes is for Kuldotha red and mono W
Divine Offering helps against a lot of stuff.

Tinker is faster and much more effective than Shape Anew. Noob question: what format are you playing? Would tinker be legal? If so, add tinker and a bunch of 0 drop artifact creatures like memnites.

I did an experimental deck to get a BC out as fast as possible. Take a look.

I don't want to take out the Blightsteel becuase he is my big win condition and 7 times out of 10 I am using Mind Sculptors ability to draw three to help top deck needed cards.

Inkmoth Nexus? It's an extra artifact for shape anew and it isn't an artifact in the main deck. Besides, Blightsteel already has infect.

I love Halimar Depths
the deck isn't meant to be fast like WW quest fast, and Halimar Depths would help ensure shape anew. Divine offering is a nice card, but I might try like -3 tectonic edge, +3 Halimar depths, and any combo of divine offering or tectonic edge. tectonic edge needs them to have four other lands, so it slows down your tempo. now that I think about it, leyline could go instead of divine offering. not much mono red burn, and control targets creatures more times than you. artifacts are way more popular in standard.

overall, it's a great decklist. shape anew is one of those cards that doesn't see play too often, but is more than a crap rare, and you've really utilized it

Another possibility would be to run 1 Everflowing Chalice and 4 Trinket Mages.
