Deck Description

This deck is my attempt at making an infect deck that can win in one - two turns. Any pointers or ideas that would make this deck better would be appreciated.

Strategy: Wait until opponent has no creatures or decides NOT to block, at this point use all the buffs you have and kill your opponent in one move.

Example: you have one swamp and three forests on the field. You have a plague stinger and you attack. Your opponent does not block. You then use vines of vastwood and pay the kicker (total two green) this gives you a 5/5 infect. Next pay one green for giant growth you are now at a 8/8 creature. Finally you pay one black for vampires bite and you have a 11/8 infect. This of course is an instant win.


NOTE: I will be editing this deck with the release of NPH after my exams are finished and I get some free time

Get some Verdant Catacombs to fuel the groundswells.

I run a deck like this, and the most useful card in it has proven to be Ichorclaw Myr (since no one want's to block it), so I'd run four of it in a heartbeat. Infiltration Lens also helps a lot with getting a creature through.

Also, if you find that you often fail to get a creature through when your opponent has like 8 or 9 poison counters (because he'll block everything at any cost by then), you'll appreciate having a Contagion Clasp or two and a few Virulent Wound to force those few last poison counters, they are often the hardest part. Those two cards also help with removing weak chump blockers. I run two of each, and they've come in handy more often than not.

First off Infect is a mistake that makes bad players win (Opinion) second, this is a good deck build and it works, it's also a common idea for infect and its why you kill infect ASAP and try your best not to take ANY poison damage as hard as that is but it can work
