Drainage

by DARKHAWK on 01 August 2007

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (24 cards)

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 decks main strategy is to prevent your opponent from attacking and slowly drain them of life. It is very simple and affective. Just use your creatures to block and the ones they cant you enchant then let your drain cards do the work for you. If you are playing a burn deck just bring in Circle of Protection: Red from your Side Board before the game starts. This deck should win about 9 out of 10 games.
If you have any questions just ask and please rate my deck 1-10.

this deck is pretty good against creature decks. but ANY other type of deck it is going to be weak. it looks like discard, burn, combo decks would rip this thing a new cornchute. i don't really know what to add. maybe a few aggressive creatures to try and kill your opponent before they can react.

Looks like this would be a drag to play against. Lots of little damage that would just stack up. I will have to give this a try.

8/10

A great addition to any deck Like this is Kokusho. Big 5/5 dragon, but when it dies it drains 5 life from EACH opponent and then gives it all back to you. Of course what you have here works any way.

Solid 8

Very cool deck. Maybe substitute a couple pestilences for temporal isolation. It would let you send your creatures to the graveyard, kicking in their abilities, and also give you some control of the board. Great deck already though. Solid 8-8.5

your decks pretty good i like your agent of masks, its pretty effective. my deck actually works well because if i don't get a gemhide sliver than i use my direct damage to slow your deck down. [direct damage slivers]

This deck reminds me of my friend's Orzhov deck. Good control and drain. I know how annoying a deck like this can be is. 8.5/10

Wow. Nice deck. I wouldn't change a thing about it, it's very well constructed and supported. Definitely wouldn't want to play it though, it seems deadly effective. Comment on my Molimo Beatdown deck please.

Best of luck!

Check out my bleeder deck..

-Sideboards are supposed to be 15 cards (legally and all that)
-All the opponent needs to beat your deck is a single Troll Ascetic/Silhana Ledgewalker

Joande you are not positive at all. The creatures that I can't enchant I use my creatures to block them... I know probably sounds unheard of to you... But please try again.

Looks like it would be a pretty annoying deck to play against, IF you last long enough to get out your stuff. My one criticism is that the average converted mana cost is 3 and your cheaper stuff primarily targets creatures. In tourneys you'll likely run into some serious problems with ultra-fast burns or affinities that overwhelm you by turn 2 or 3. You won't have much time to build up. Maybe try to lower the costs a little. 7.5 out of 10 from me.

Nobody's mentioned Sanguine Bond? Seems like an absolute must have. Would change your description of slowly draining life too. Perfect fit.

Took the time to read, but not the time to look at dates.

I like the deck and have a lot of the cards that I've even used to make very similar type decks with. I was also wondering if anyone could help me find a card that I think is an artifact. It lets the controller return a creature to their hand to make a player mill 2 cards. It would be greatly appreciated.

I agree that sanguine bond would be a great addition if you could fit it in.

Maybe if you stopped sucking, your decks would get noticed. (Non-constructive comments and emo complaints will receive non-constructive replies.)

Ghost Council of Orzhova? Suture Priest? C'mon man, they're both GREAT for this deck. Especially Ghost Council Blind Hunter combo... Castigate Would be good pre-counter control. Get rid of those cards BEFORE they cause a problem and they choose to pay the 5 life just to get it out (potentially winning the game)

Aside from the fact that your sideboard is totally over 15 cards, replace them with Runes of Protection ;P 100% better than the Circles.

I'm thinking maybe soot imp instead of infectious host? At least to be in sideboard cause it would definitely drain more life than just 2 if the opponent was using a nonblack deck, especially if they don't have flying you can take an additional 1 each turn.
