Deck discussion for Your Mind Is Weak

Two milldecks recently went top 8 in modern.

Since there were two very different designs winning, I think the cards they shared in common should be a hint towards what actually works for mill...

Here's what the two winning designs got in common:
4 hedron crabs
4 archive trap
4 visions of beyond
4 glimpse the unthinkable
3 cards giving slight card advantage (either snapcaster mage or augur of bolas)
2 cards discarding important stuff (either thoughtseize or surgical extraction)

I assume it was legacy/vintage then.
What decks did you encounter (If you know them all)
With the above list it's an unlikely event, but sometimes it does happen.
If you can link to the event, then I'll store your deck on my page and promote it.

oh totally a type 1 local card shop tourny they do stuff once a month like for instance at xmass time theyll hold a red / green contest (get it xmass colors red and green lol ) or i think you know where im coming from anyways im a total old school player I guess being 38 and playing magic since I was in high school ... I ended up swapping 2 nemesis for 4 rain of tears and was just wiping out lands I ended up swapping dream twist for chronic floodingso even tapping their land hurt lol . goodness what did I play against ..... a red and black kill creature with direct damage at the same time which didn't really work since I didn't cast many critters which really pissed him off ... a all white spirit/angel deck again his spells just cost too much to keep casting ... I thought this holyday/thalid deck was going to get the better of me and mindgrind turned out to be the finisher on that one its kind of not your typical mill deck its more of a land manipulation deck. I will be posting my white/blue "old school" mill/mine deck I totally enjoy swapping knowledge with you and don't get me wrong im no pro by any means but I do think kids get scared when they see someone who looks like they should be in sons of anarchy sitting across form them lol promote it if you like I mean it would help me being new to this site (my son turned me on to it) as for being friends id like that too you seem really cool and know your stuff hope to talk to you soon , keep kicking ass !

In my area (Denmark) christmas decks are RWG. Redwhite not because of our flag, but because the cocacola-santa is the most symbolically featured one.

You being an oldschool player may be why I've been confused at what sort of tournament you played at, and I'm still wondering from your description :)

What you call type 1 turned into becoming "vintage", while type 1.5 probably turned into "standard"

These days the structure is like this:

Vintage is the oldest format, and it's legal to play 1 of each of the old powercards, like black lotus.

Legacy is the second oldest format, and was made as a more relaxed format where all powercards become banned as soon as they start dominating the game.

Then there's standard. It's legal to play up to the 4-6 newest cardreleases and the newest core-set, and it constantly rotates Demanding you to buy cards all the time.

Then there is modern, where it's legal to play with all cards made from the old mirrodin cycle and forward.

I actually don't know what extended is.

But judging from your cardpool I think you are playing what's called standard.

I'm hunting for decks that are either modern or legacy, and since your deck has switched to only being legal in vintage and legacy, so your deck was within my search, and when you said you were a type one player I thought, well, that's vintage, and everyhting there is turn 0-3 kills. So I lacked faith in your deck winning there :)

I myself is 43, and most of the time look like a tramp, which should also intimidate kids a bit, but they have become fewer in the legacy tournaments because it takes skill and money to be there, and kids of today know that grown ups are unlikely to start beating them up anywhere, so they are mainly fearless of your size, but does fear being beaten in the game, so intimidate them with fancy cards if you want to scare them there :)

I rank as number 300-something in Denmark on the total lifepoint score, and have a lot of weird magic projects that I'm fond of telling about...

Clicking on my name and then clicking on follow, should make me your friend :)

Well, looking at your other decks it looks like you ARE a t1-er/vintage player.
But I still guess you were at a standard tournament :)

Still scaring kids with the sons of anarchy lookout?
I spent the halloween scaring kids with ghost stories. Halloween is new to Denmark, so someones gotta do the frontier work :D

I sometimes get these radical ideas that I need to spread all over the net, and since you are on the "list" you will not escape the spam!

I hereby invite you to participate in a brand new trend in deckdesigning that might change the future of how to design decks.

Shortly told, there are two ways that new decktypes are made, the first is by designing something new, the second is by taking the best parts of two older decks, mix it together and you got a new decktype!!!

What I suggest is a turbo-version of mixing two different decktypes into a new one.

You simply split up existing designs into deckhalves (Called halfdecks) that are designed so that they keep as much of the origanal themes of a deck intact, and so that the half can be thrown together with almost any other halfdeck deigned in the future.

Splitting a deck up in two times 30 cards is not so easy as it sounds, so initially this trend will start out slowly, and if enough people adapt the idea it will probably explode into radical new decktypes made from decks designed with halfdecking in mind.

To get a better understanding of the concept you might need to take a look at the first 3 deckhalves I've made as examples. (Bear in mind that they were designed very roughly from memory)

I will improve these designs and add other deckhalves as fast as possible to start up the trend.

YOU, and everyone else that recieve this "spam" are welcome to start up your own version of this project, as it is intended to become everyones, and only by letting several minds work on it independently will it take on a better shape and spread out as a new deckbuilding tool.

Contact me at any time, with any questions you may have.

I only have one wish on how this new trend can be spread. If everyone involved tag their decks as halfdecks then the future halfdeck community may simply write halfdeck in the decksearching function to find what they are looking for!
