One of my favourite Decks to watch =)

They can all tap to do one damage to them selves
I love this deck, it's still a pain in the ass, but I love it =)
I was using Glistener Elf, but it in a multi way it's harder to fect someone by like turn 2, and thats when I discovered Blighted Agent was such a better card =P The guys I play against tend to have a lot of creature destruction cards like doom blade and things, which can be annoying, Troll hide was just a way of assuring my integral creatures safety I am liking the blue draw+prolif idea though, I may have to investigate in swapping some in =) cheers
That deffinatly looks better
Pristine Talisman is a nice touch, it is 3 costing and gives colourless mana but with the amount of life gain going on I can afford to take it on the chin a few times =)
I mostly play this deck in a multiway, it doesn't work in a 1 on 1. Because I'm not much of a threat I'm able to stay low and steal big creatures It helps that I have Treachery, although it may cost 5 mana it untaps 5 lands, 2 of those in your hand and your still able to cast more spells. But there are more cards I need to put it, I just haven't had time ward of bones is always a nice touch, but again you need to have alot of mana out, I shall deffinatly re-arrange somethings =)
There that looks much better =)
lol, it wasn't suppose to be Relic of Progenitus, it was suppose to be Relic Putrescence hence the poison counter but I much preffer your method I shall be amending asap =) cheers
If you switch out the portal and the 0 cmc cars and replace them with the Myr turbine the trick still works and you have some room for the draw cards, in fact have a trigon of thought would be pretty cool since it will have infinite counters, but yea there are a few possibilities here =)
Agreed that it is lacking in low mana costing spells, I may try and throw in some unsummons and such like
Now amended
Asceticism works really well for protection but there are other cards like Apostle's Blessing, which is white phyrexian mana so if you dont mind loosing 2 life it aint bad, it can also be used when attacking so as your opponent cant block with artifacts or creatures of the chosen colour - could be a problem against multi coloured decks however =/
I have edited this deck within the confines of cards I own. I have made another deck which favours the pride mates better than this deck, but theres no reason I can't use them in both =P I tend to use cage sun for more white mana so I can pump it in to the cradle, if I gain 16 life from one source then I can pay 1 non colour and 1 white to give a creature +16 +16, where as the pridemate only gains +1 +1 per source. Still a bloody good card to have though =) Cheers for the feedback
