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

heliosofcows gave me a challenge to make an assassin tribal deck using Thraximundar and no more than one set of a counter spell. That deck can be found here:

This deck is closer to how I'd make a tribal Assassin deck. Trip Noose + Royal Assassin is a cool 'combo'.

Icy manipulator may also be helpful. But this deck is awesome :)

How about stabbing pain? It taps AND kills stuff. Also, good job with the killing wave. I never noticed the synergy with Scarblade Elite.

I totally just ripped you off and built this deck. I was wondering how effective having the killing waves in the deck work? I haven't got a chance to play this deck yet and was thinking about replacing the killing waves.

Honestly, I only designed this for a challenge, I don't own even half of the cards in this :|
I've only ever cast Killing Wave once (I put 6 mana into X) and at the time my opponent was on 4 life (I only owned 1 KW at the time), I have had it used against me though and I must say the timing and amount to put into X is very situational, but rewarding regardless of whether the opponent pays the X life or sacrifices creatures. So I'd say to try the deck with them in it and decide from there.

Try Geth's Verdict? - not only helps destroy a creature, opponent also loses a life. Assassin decks are really cool although they might not be the toughest. I have been trying to build an assassin/hybrid deck ?, using my graveyard as a source of power and flexibility. Still needs work. If you can give me some advice I'd appreciate it.
