40 Cards Deck Challenge

Hey everyone, my name is Darkness1d.

One of my friends, Hax, challenge me on a weekly basic to try and build a deck with only 40 cards.

We both heard that we are good at building deck from our friends. But the question is which one of us is better at building a deck.

So, we made these rules for our challenge against each other.

Rules:

* We can't see each other's deck or talk about those deck. There was too many tie with known decks.
* It has to be 40 cards no more, no less
* Proxies are ok
* The cards in the deck must be legal in standard


The dual to see who is good at making the deck of that week is on sunday. This week challenge started and will end on 5/24.

Both decks will be posted at that day with a poll on who built a good deck.

I will post the winner of the challenge on late sunday or monday.

We should have an MTG Vault forum challenge like that, and post our decklists and vote on the best and most creative (Hint, hint...)!:D

see now, there's a reason that the minimum in tourneys got bumped to 60, and that's because 40 card decks can be really broken. Nevertheless, I wanna try it :P

My own 'creation'. Annoying, when it throws out about ten cards every turn except first (when it can throw only four:D)

I used this deck when I still played. It was pretty unbeatable except for smart blue players that played me before. Why? Because they force of willed the feldon's cane asap. But if you NEVER saw this deck before, it was a sight to behold.

Premise. Burn Burn Burn. Either life or the creatures. Even if you burn the creatures, you can millstone to death especially since they have to massively discard after lots of howling mines. I once had a game where someone else had howling mines out. I picked up 7 cards a round and obliterated him VERY fast.
