Deck Description

A black-blue lockdown deck that leaves your opponent defenseless.

How to Play

Early [Contaminated Ground] and [Spreading Seas] shut your opponent down from the get-go and give you an advantage. [Unsummon] and [Spell Pierce] are for early-game lockdown. [Wind Zendikon] gives you early-game defenders.

[Royal Assassin] synergizes well with just about everything in this deck. [Alluring Siren], [Frost Lynx] and [Tideforce Elemental] hand-feed [Royal Assassin] yummy creatures on a silver platter. [Fleeting Distraction] and [See Beyond] help you get the cards you need, and [Telepathy] prevents surprises. [Memory Plunder] forces your opponent to think twice about slinging spells.

[Banewasp Affliction], [Brink of Disaster], [Contaminated Ground], [Sinister Possession], [Frost Lynx], [Vortex Elemental] and [Royal Assassin] are all capable of making your opponent refuse to take action. [Stab Wound] will slowly bleed your opponent, as will [Banewasp Affliction], [Sinister Possession] and [Contaminated Ground] if your opponent does decide to take action.
