I love to counter my own spell..

Main Deck (60 cards)

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.

Glad you like it. I like try to try to make some of my decks work on new mechanics.

I would drop the remove-from-hand mana and a 0 cost non-artifact creature in exchange for 0 cost mana:
+4 Lotus Petal
+4 Chrome Mox
+4 Mox Opal

This keeps your Multani's Void from getting halted by something you can't cycle or counter.

On a side note, I love the Probes and Street Wraiths as ways to push the draw faster. I am going to think hard on this one, the 2 card combo is very comparable to an ANT deck, but runs on much lower CMC. If you can have your two combo cards hit your opening hand reliably, you have a real contender here for 1st turn win reliability.

We should up you to a 4 set of Pact of Negation. In the event of drawing Multani but not drawing a Chalice, you can counter your own spells for draw to increase your probability of 1st turn victory. I will note, however that you cannot "Use Pact of Negation to disrupt any atttempts to counter Exsanguinate." because it would be auto-countered if you Chalice is in play.

Hi cho_kai,

Thanks for the suggestions. Made changes and adding another way to win with Glimpse of Nature and Grapeshot. Also added Last Word to protect casting of Grapeshot or Exsanguinate for win.
