RATS!!

by JerodMacDonald on 26 March 2010

Main Deck (60 cards)

Creatures (24)


Sorceries (6)


Instants (4)


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 Description

Rats, and they are relentless, and there are lots of them.

Also, Damnation followed by Patriarch's Bidding is hilarious. Unless you're opponent is playing a heavy tribal deck as well, then just damnation and continue pumping out rats.

This deck is nothing if not insanely consistent.

And yes, I know, extirpate etc. Its a bad time if it happens, but all decks have some inherent weakness. This one is just a little more obvious. Still a blast to play in casual.

It was actually originally in this. But after months of playing it, it never quite worked out somehow.

Damn! When I first saw the Rentless Rats I thought - "I want to make a Rentless Rats Deck." Sadly, they are harder to find than I thought. You should check out my Rat Deck.

http://store.tcgplayer.com/ is an amazing online store. They conglomerate like 25 other online stores and auto sign you up for them all in one cart so you don't need to worry about that, and you can compare prices for cards insanely easily.

The rats are generally around $1 each. They are actually sadly one of the cheapest parts of the deck. I got lucky and me and some friends had a few lake of the deads and cabal coffers around, and I got 3 Urborgs in boosters.

LOL Ok so I just re-read the first paragraph. I definitely sounded like an ad bot promoting it or some shit. I'm not, its just a solid site.

Check out "Door of Destiny"

Everytime a creature of your chosen type (Rat) comes onto the field, Door gets a counter on it. For each counter on it, all creatures of chosen type get +1/+1. Basically, if you have 5 relentless rats on the field with 6/6 on them, you use damnation, play door of destiny, then patriarch's bidding, they come back as 11/11s. A friend of mine plays a Relentless Rat deck, it's annoying AS HELL with that damn door.

Also, look up Thrumming Stone. Every spell you play has ripple 4 (look at the top 4 cards of your deck. All spells with the same name are played for 0 mana.) This helps pumping the rats out VERY QUICKLY.

It makes the swarmyards tap for black, makes cabal coffers insane, and I can sacrifice any land to the lake
