Deck Description

I know I don't have any big creatures in this deck really, but the main idea is to either beat them with numbers or vat one of their trumps after you tumble magnet/sunblast it.

I'm planning to get rid of the Deathmantles, they were too slow but I'm not sure what to side in their place yet.

I was actually thinking of putting in two Journey to Nowhere for until the rotation hits. And possibly White Sun's Zenith to produce some extra fodder since I'm not running any walls. Opinion?

I wouldn't take out the Thrummingbirds as suggested. They are the proliferate you need for your Tumble Magnet's counters. I would however add in the Mimic Vats. They will work nicely with Sunblast Angel and Day of Judgment. Maybe replace Condemn with Sleep. Maybe not though, they cost 4 mana.

Condemn is probably going to go in favour of the New Phyrexia 1 white mana card which taps a creature and exiles it if you can trigger metalcraft. In general, I'll be making a fair few changes with that set. I'll see where I can fit in the Mimic Vats.

I've got contagion clasps for hitting small creatures repeatedly with Venser's +2 ability. That's providing the proliferate now.

don't remove thrumming bird. coz it gives tumble magnet counters so tumble magnet can deal with big creatures. but your idea is good. u can just put thrumming bird on your sideboard

You have a point sir. I'll probably side 2 for when I need them or put them onto the main board after the NPH set comes out and I figure out what to do with the deck.

I actually started MTG by playing one, though I wasn't very good at it. I'd be happy to try and help though.
