Deck Description

This is a fun little combo deck that is cheap considering how strong it is but can be made cheaper by removing Urborg, and Mutavault. Just add Desolate Lighthouse and Gitu Encampment. I know it has it's weaknesses but don't all decks.

This is still testing and I know there are more expensive builds but this is a list of what I have. It's a nice casual FNM deck but don't expect to beat everyone with this cos it's extremely reliant on your opening hand.

Sensible comments are welcome.

How to Play

Game 1 Ideally you want to go second in case you have Gemstone Caverns. Ideal starting hand has Treasure Hunt and Reliquary Tower so you can attempt to go off turn 3. I tend to mulligan any hand without ant least one of Treasure Hunt, Muddle in the Mixture or Counrtyside Crusher. If you don't have Reliquary Tower, only cast Treasure Hunt turn 3 before you play a land to try find one to play that turn.

Turn 1: play island or blue tapped land. (Should be Blue though)
Turn 2: Ideally play a red source then cast Treasure Hunt. This will ideally turn over 7-10 lands then Lightning storm.
Turn 3: play an untapped red source then cast Lightning Storm which does 3 damage on it's own +2 damage for each land you discard while it's on the stack which should be 9 if they're still on 20 life. This will do 21 damage! Make sure to do the math correctly and DON'T discard more lands than you needed to.

***WARNING***(Learn how Lightning Storm Works!!!)
If your opponent discards a land then they can kill you by changing Lightning Storms target so it's best to have some spare lands in hand to prevent this.

Sideboard is just to change things up a bit and remain unpredictable.

Have Fun! :-)
