I'm splashing black for some lifelink and discard and I am pleased with the result. Mind Rot helped forcing them casting their protection before I tried to deal with their creatures. But yesterday I was wrong cutting Tormenting Voices because the deck lost to itself a few times by drawing too much high costed cards in the early game.rremediohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12346183837918318546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866129634658205665.post-91262920378834208192015-01-03T15:53:16.783-05:002015-01-03T15:53:16.783-05:00Currently working on some decks that have game aga...Currently working on some decks that have game against the heroic decks. Somehow Izzet crushed them at first but I've been having a tough time beating Heroic with the protection spells lately, too. So much that I have only really been playing Boros lately :/ I think I can come up with an Orzhov anti-heroic, heroic deck and a Azorius anti-heroic aggro/control deck. I'll share some lists when they get better :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866129634658205665.post-70729134565728060472015-01-03T13:44:12.339-05:002015-01-03T13:44:12.339-05:00Very nice, gwyned!

My favorite decks are DrChrisBaker's Izzet Cruise deck and BigBee's "Simic" deck (which splashes black). My only issue with the current metagame is the huge amount of cheap protection spells which make White Heroics too strong. But there is plenty of fun decks to play in all styles.rremediohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12346183837918318546noreply@blogger.com
