Deck Description

I discovered this fun combo when chatting with a friend recently. I never knew about Living End being a deck until now, and I really like the idea! It costs a pretty penny (mostly land, but a few other cards cost a bit) but it's a fun deck with a powerful little combo that can be hard to interact against! Enjoy!

How to Play

You should be able to win roughly turn 4 - 5 with this deck. This can make it a bit harder with all those turn 2 combos in modern, but this one is well worth the wait. The idea is to spend turn 1 - 3 just power cycling your creatures. (Valley Rannet and Street Wraith are you best friends) Then, on turn four, cast Violent Outburst or Demonic Dread to cascade into Living End. The beauty of this combo is that no other card in your deck can be cascaded due to the fact that everything else cost the same or more than both Violent Outburst and Demonic Dread, other than Living End, which has no mana cost. Then, all of your cycled creatures come back, while giving you a board wipe before they do! Next turn, just swing for game! If you have trouble, you can sideboard in one of your evoke cards! Shriekmaw annihilates cards like Delver and combo decks like Splinter Twin (by killing it's target,) while Ingot Chewer eats through tron's big win cons. Faerie Macabre can kill off decks like Goryo's Vengeance by exiling key combo cards, and Ghost Quarter is help to hate on Tron, or deny combo decks the mana they need.
