Snakes EVERYWHERE

by scoobster33 on 09 June 2010

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Sorceries (1)

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.


Deck Description

The main focus of this deck is get mana fast and then use Sosuke's Summons to constantly dish out snake tokens. Then the legendaries and artifacts are used to beef those tokens up and overwhelm the enemy.

Right now the deck is set up in its most versatile form. If you are playing against burn decks then toss more Kashi-Tribe Elite's in there to protect the legendaries

If you're worried about fliers then put more snipers / winged coatls in there

Use Time of Need to directly find what legendary you need in a particular situation.
-Patron of the Orochi if your low on mana / want vigilance (which is pretty much what it does. Note that its ability also untaps itself so it can block)
-Almost every creature is a warrior OR a shaman, which is why I have 2 of Sachi and Sosuke
-Seshiro comes in when your ready to unleash the fury
-Shisato is only effective with Whispersilk, but when you finally get it set up it's extremely deadly

Use fabricate to find a Whispersilk / Konda's Banner / Coat of Arms (Or the spellbook if your skullclampin' those tokens like a mofo)

This deck can run few lands due to Kodama's Reach / Sakura-Tribe Elders abilities

WEAKNESSES: It could probably use more flying defense but the friends I play with don't use a ton of fliers.

WATCH OUT for your snake tokens getting TOO strong to skullclamp. You WILL run out of cards in your hand, which is why there are so many skullclamps, but as soon as your tokens start getting beefed up you'll find yourself unable to skullclamp them...I actually have 4 skullclamps in my deck (due to me not actually having a coat of arms or gravity well yet).
-Be aware of this but luckily Seshiro has the player damage draw a card ability, which by the time you pull him out you should have more monsters than they can block.

Give me feedback and any suggestions you got!

Deck discussion for Snakes EVERYWHERE

Orochi Eggwatcher is a great combo with Shisato (you lose 1 token and get 1 token every turn.) When you flip Eggwatcher and get your 3/3 legendary snake, which has an ability that lets you kill your lesser tokens (in case they are only 1/1 or 2/2), while pumping your other creatures for +3/+3. I used that a lot in my own snake deck (with Orochi Hatchery, too).

Also you might want to add some Sleep cards to simply tap everything your opponent has and then attack with Shisato.

If you're really afraid of fliers add Gale Force to your sideboard to insta-kill every single one of them.

This looks like an amazingly fun deck. Good work!

(Sidenote: Thank you for introducing me to Time of Need. I going to put it in my Sliver deck! :))

Nice idea with the whispersilk cloth and shisato, for a suggestion add Patagia Viper for quick tokens and flying defense, and replace the islands with dual g/b lands
