Oh, "waste him" implies "waste your opponent". Not the Goblin. That'd be cruel and inefficient. I shall refrain from posting comments before I've had my morning cop of coffee in the future! :-)

Perhaps switch Tormented Soul with Goblin Fireslinger? You can waste him at the end of the turn that MoC attacked with his activated ability :-)

Cool :-) Looking forward to it! There isnt much squidlike in MTG I noticed... unless you want Cephalid (or what theyre called), but that's an entirely different type of play.

Groovy deck :-)

I just let my format depend on what cards my decks need :-) And where my budget is :p There's not enough tournaments here to really make a deck competitive in a certain format. And yeah, the dual lands are a rip-off :p But they are played in most competitive decks though. Which makes me even more pleased when I win from a hundreds of euro's worth deck with my 20 euro deck :D

Ah ok :-) I mostly play multiplayer without any format restrictions (which also means playing against all-proxy decks and legacy decks and the sorts), I dont usually bother with formats, except when people ask about it :-)

Hm, Street Wraith is a possibility. Feed the graveyard, draw a card... Thanks for the hint :-)

Ah, no idea, I usually play Vintage or Modern...

What do you mean, green doesn't give you enough graveyard power? I made a mono-green self-mill graveyard-juiced deck that runs pretty fantasticly :-) Take a look:

There's plenty of stuff that'll give intimidate (Grisly Transformation, there's a land card that makes a creature unblockable for 4 mana,..., Mogis's Marauder for example also works)... The trick is not just hàving Master of Cruelties, but to exploit his ability.

Nah. He's a very cheap 2 CMC zombie, perfect for defending, whilst Endless Ranks of the Dead spawns tokens. Boneknitter is a huge target for burn, which means a wasted spell.

Thanks for the suggestion, but the deck works brilliantly, after months and months of finetuning :-)

Yeah this is brilliant! You should hae plenty of Satyrs out by that time, who aren't really strong enough to attack en-masse. They can be put to more use by burning people at the stake :-)

Oh come on, you started this, you've got to finish this deck :-) If you won't, I will! :p

Groovy :-) And surprisingly cheap!

Look above, Troopa already mentioned this :-)

Cfr supra :-)

I hear ya! I think the trick is to find the right balance between fun and ambition. It's tricky, but very rewarding once you get in that sweet spot :-)

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this isn't a fun or competitive deck! I actually completely agree with you, that it's this sort of decks that give you the edge needed to win, ànd to win consistently. Assimilation of the most effective elements of winning decks gets you very far!

I'm just a different sort of player, I prefer flair over victory :-) And if I win, all the better :-) I had this discussion before with a friend of mine who's very good at perfecting decks and making them as efficient as possible, which is a worthy goal. But not for a stubborn dude like me :-)

Apologies if you took offence!

Well, if you're gonna put most of the high-rankers on the price-quality ratio black standard cards in one deck, you're bound to get a pretty decent deck :p I'm sure it's effective, but I'm missing some flair though. Then again, I prefer making themed or unconventional decks, like a mono green self-mill graveyard deck or stuff like that :-)

Ah yes, my bad! Forgot about the pauper part. Syndic of Tithes should help you out plenty though :-) Glad I could help!

Cool :-) I took some inspiration from this deck for my Samurai commander deck :-)
