Deck Challenge: Tempo

Hello again fellow deck builders! Today's deck challenge is to design a Tempo deck.

The reason for this challenge is because I finally built one myself, something I've honestly always had trouble with :D

So your challenge is to build yourself a Tempo deck.

What is a Tempo deck? Well, most of the time it's also a Fearie deck, but that doesn't mean that a Faerie deck is a Tempo or vice-versa. :D

A Tempo deck is a deck that forces the opponent out of their "rhythm", so to speak. It jumps the gun, makes them uneasy. These usually have lots of instants and/or things with "Flash". Other stuff they might have is things that screw with the opponent's ability to do certain things.

Now, remember that just because many Tempo decks use the Faeries, that doesn't mean that they are exclusive to just those cards.

Have fun! :D

this one isnt a real tempo deck but it really screws your opponent by just taking over what he got while drawing cards with your own creatures it isnt finished yet but its an fun deck(after seeing your opponents face when he discoveres you take it all)

This one stops the Tempo all together. Total lock down.
