Magic: The Gathering

Postby Obscurist » Thu Apr 18, 2013 2:46 am

Any Magic players in the Cracked community? Post your builds, arrange Cockatrice games, or just talk about the game here.

I'll start it off with my current standard deck. I'm still working on it and am open to suggestions.

Code: Select all
Creatures
4x Geralf's Messenger
3x Obzedat, Ghost Council
4x Restoration Angel
4x Thrull Parasite

Enchantment
4x Blind Obedience

Land
4x Godless Shrine
4x Isolated Chapel
7x Plains
8x Swamp

Sorcery
3x Bone Splinters
4x Lingering Souls
3x Sign in Blood

Instant
4x Altar's Reap
4x Cloudshift


The idea of this deck is to get Messenger or Obzedat out on the field and then blink them repeatedly with Cloudshift and Restoration Angel.

My draw engines are Sign in Blood and Altar's Reap. Geralf's Messenger can be sacrificed to pay for Altar's Reap. Messenger comes back and his ETB effect triggers. Then I use Cloudshift or Thrull Parasite to remove the +1/+1 counter and he's ready to go again. He can additionally be sacrificed to Bone Splinters for creature removal.

I haven't played in about 10 years and I don't have any of my old cards, but I'm definitely looking to get back into it.

I mentioned on IRC chat that the newest expansion "Dragon's Maze" will be released May 3. That would be a good place to jump in if you are interested in getting back into the scene.
