Deck Description

Tezzeret infect inside UB control shell. A serious control deck with a nasty surprise combo that can still win on turn 4. Named for the fact that you wither their attacks and then the infection kills them.

Optimal draw:

1. Inkmoth Nexus.
2. Island, Plague Myr.
3. Swamp, Tezzeret. Tezz makes Plague Myr 5/5.
4. Tap swamp to turn Inkmoth into 1/1 flying infect. Tezz makes it 5/5. Attack with Plague Myr and Inkmoth for 10 poison.

Obviously, in a real-world situation, they'd have a chump blocker for the Plague Myr, and may have interfered along the way, as well. Still, this combo required only 5 total cards (including land), and the deck is primarily built for control. Generally, it will take longer to kill them, but the 5/5 flying infect is just nasty, and you're playing control, so you've got the time.

Please note: I played many years ago, but have only spent about a month or two with the current sets, so in many respects I'm a rank n00b. If I've made some glaring error, it's probably because I AM that dumb. Please let me know!

Thanks for the thought. I'll look around for a card that can do that reliably without slowing down the deck or taking away control. I'm not familiar enough yet to know one that can do that from the top of my head.
