The Fog's Strong With This One

by twolinecinephile on 28 March 2014

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sorceries (4)


Instants (18)

Fog4xFog

Planeswalkers (4)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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

Welcome to the world of turbo fog, folks, where you have no friends and the life points don't matter! This deck is built to do one thing...well two things, really. One, fog the shit out of your opponents. Two, mill them to death with Jace and Increasing Confusion. Used to run a version of this during Innistrad block that tore it up so I thought I'd revise it now that I play casually. Also wanted a new 60-card deck in my collection that isn't aggro so I have something to change things up with, ha. Any comments/suggestions are welcome! I shall now depart leaving you all some important words of wisdom:

"The Fog is with you. Always."

Deck discussion for The Fog's Strong With This One

Considering a sideboard for once for one of my casual decks simply because this has no answer what-so-ever to the likes of burn. The original version of this mainboarded Counterspell but it looked like it'd be a dead weight more times than not, so I opted for more fogging (and ability to cycle) with Lull. Sideboard cards I'm considering include (in this order) Surgical Extraction, Witchbane Orb and Negate.

Anyone who has any other ideas please feel free to share them!

A little math for all of you looking at this deck: Isochron Scepter + Tangle = good game. Trust me, it's insanely assy.

Looks fun, but you'd basically have to scoop against burn decks/certain combo decks.

That's true, that's why I'm considering a sideboard consisting of cards like Surgical Extraction, Witchbane Orb and Negate so I can at least have a chance against those decks. It's definitely fun for me, my friends...not so much. Haha. Thanks for taking the time to look at it!

Love this setup. I run one very similar that manaramps to Emrakul for the game winner and recurs fog with snapcaster and revival spells along with praetors counsul and regrowth and lots and lots of draw power. Most fun in a multi duel with alot of people at the table. Means you can protect anyone and make an ally or when you play Rites of Flourishing, you can accelerate the game and get everyone happy with you.

Then you drop Emrakul and nobody is happy anymore :p

Never thought about using that shell for a mill strategy though. It does have a hard time fighting burn in any capacity. Basically turns into a race for me to get the eldrazi out asap. I'd imagine your hope is to mill their burn stuff as much as you can.

That's really dirty, running a Fog-based Emrakul deck, haha. Gotta give you props for having the balls to run something like that and expect people to want to keep playing Magic with you :P Haha, I kid, though, of course this deck isn't going to increase my chances of keeping my friends either!

Yeah, man, the Turbo Fog build has supposedly been around for quite awhile. There's a Turbo Fog deck on here with probably 40+ likes from Innistrad block that is alot like what I used to run in Standard during that block and piss people off, ha. Now I just play casually once more and wanted to make an even more efficient (therefore, assier) build than before and I think I accomplished it here!

As far as burn goes, that's why I'm considering having a few sideboard cards for the likes of burn or weird damage-flinging combo decks to see if I can draw into something like a Witchbane Orb to give myself hexproof and/or Surgical Extraction to remove their key damage-doling cards from their deck! I'll get the chance to test it out soon and will add the cards to my sideboard here once I figure out what works well. Usually I don't include sideboards with my casual decks but since I want this deck to be able to play anything I'm going to have to make an exception for this one.

Thank you for taking the time to check it out and comment!
