Deck Description

Legacy land destruction via Liquimetal Coating and Myr Landshaper. Win condition via Shivan Wumpus & Smash to Smithereens direct damage.

Gorilla Shaman is a BEAST in this deck. He's a very fast 1-drop, and then 1 mana per destroyed land. And he can destroy multiple lands per turn since his ability does not require a tap (so long as you have more than 1 Liquimetal Coating). Enlightened Tutor assures that I get Liquimetal early game. It can also help draw Isochron Scepter/Ghostly Prison/Blood Moon/Ethersworn Canonist if I draw Liquimetal Coating in the first few turns.

After several playtests, I was encountering problems with sustaining the land destruction due to lack of drawing artifact destroy spells, so I added in some Isochron Scepters to try to combat this issue. So far, so good. I switched out the 2 Voltaic Keys for more Isochrons.

This is not a budget deck due to the inclusion of Ancient Tomb, Isochron Scepter, Enlightened Tutor, and Chrome Mox. I had to add Ancient Tomb and Chrome Mox in an attempt to speed things up as much as possible. Turn 2 land destruction often equals a win, which this deck can achieve occasionally. This deck consistently gets turn 3 land destruction. On a bad draw, turn 4 land destruction which is often too late.

Galvanic Blast/Lightning Bolt was also added to counteract faster creature decks that are able to set up on turn 1/2/3 with weenies. Also added in some Indomitable Archangels in the event that I encounter an artifact hate deck as well as to act as a beater if necessary.
