by Jajitsu22 on 22 April 2011

Main Deck (65 cards)

Planeswalkers (1)


Artifacts (4)



Land (20)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

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 discussion for Can you discard a card?

The first thing I would do is shave the deck down to 60 cards. It will help drastically in card quality, you'd be amazed how much faster a deck plays when you lose even just 1 or 2 cards.

I understand why you have Painful Quandary and Liliana Vess here, however, they are the only two cards that are above a 3 CC. Because of that, I would seriously consider their relevence in the deck as, with only two Dark Rituals, they become dead cards in an opening draw.

In place of Soul Reap, I'd consider the addition of Chainer's Edict to compliment Diabolic Edict. The Chainer's is reusable (once, but at a cost), and it's not biased like the Soul Reap is. With all the discard, few creatures will be hitting the board (ideally), so Edicts will have a lasting effect.

Consider bumping the Hypnotic Specters to 4 in place of the two Ritualists, thought that's a personal preference.

Lastly, Liliana's Caress is CRUCIAL for you. I would find a way to work a play set of them into the build ASAP. That one card will create a huge difference in the speed of your deck.

I appreciate any comments or criticism you can offer on any of the decks that I have posted here (just click on my name to see my deck list). Thanks in advance.

Very similar to my deck, least it was... I did end up ditching Vess... I was sad... but it's faster now... Also... LOVING the Caress.... go for the set... it's worth it! The combo of that and The Rack, the will be getting hit all the time, if the have cards or not.... Trimming the deck, even by a card or two does make a huge diff... Find the cards that only come out once in a blue moon and have not helped you win, and cut them... they may fit in the deck, but may not be crucial. If you can speed up your deck, you will not need creature killer cards in your main, add them into the sideboard... Ditching anything over 3CCC is def a good idea... Once I did that... I my speeds tripled... Just some thoughts for ya.
