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

This is intended to be a casual, NON-INFINITE deck focused on skull-clamp's interactions with cheap creatures and venser's journal. In effect, gain life, draw cards and use sanguine bond to target damage to opponents.

Deck discussion for Venser's Skullclamp - Help!

With an eye on casual game play and absolutely no infinite combos, what could be improved?

This deck should be either legacy/vintage legal. If I've missed an infinite combo here ... please let me know.

Any ideas?

I am considering adding or finding room for 2x Ob Nixilis Reignited.

SKullclamp works best as a sac engine on its own, as you can essentially use it to pay {1} to sac the critter and draw 2 if the clamp kills the critter. Skullclamp's best friend is Bloodghast for this very reason, as it turns into a combo that's basically just {1} draw 2 cards every turn. Some other fodder critters I'd consider are Refurbished Familiar and Nether Traitor. Then there are the draino critters that take advantage of the dying, Blood Artist and Zulaport Cutthroat, which are also emergency targets for the clamp, which is delightful. I'd also absolutely recommend running 4 clamps, as the whole deck revolves around abusing it.

This is very insightful! Thank you! I'll see what cards I have and make some tweaks. :)
