So my mate, who is in Thailand right now but moving back to the Netherlands in a month, is looking forward to playing our monday-night-casual-multiplayer magicgames again. We've had some fun times with him playing aggro elves and me playing manaramp with priest of titania, hurricaning an 8+ free for all multiplayer game for 58 and stuff like that.
So we decided, why not make two identical decks designed to boost eachother? Hilarity would be guaranteed right? So we quickly came up with accumulated knowledge and the 'burst' spells, out of which only aether burst is really worthwhile. Then he went to sleep (timezones etc) and I fooled around with the idea some more.
What I came up with was a WB deck with a blue splash for accumulated knowledge, aether burst, gifts ungiven (guess who's gonna make the piles) and psychatog (why not) in a BW weenie shell, with eventide and guildpact creatures being pumped by bad moon and crusade (which pump your 'opponent's' guys as well). I would play intuition instead of gifts, but it's a deck meant for casual multiplayer and I'm not shelling out €30 for a set of intuition just to annoy people on the multiplayer table.
So without further ado, the decklist I came up with:
Dudes:
3x Divinity of Pride (4/4 flying lifelink BW demigod from eventide which becomes 8/8)
4x Mourning Thrull (1/1 flying lifelink BW guy for 2 mana)
4x Nip Gwyllion (1/1 lifelink BW 1 mana)
2x Psychatog (roar)
2x Restless Apparition (2/2 BW 3 mana guy which can be pumped)
3x Voracious Hatchling (6/6 BW guy for 4 mana with lifelink, starts with 4 -1/-1 counters which will disappear when you play spells)
Pump:
4x Crusade
4x Bad Moon
Lame:
4x Aether Burst (bounce 1 guy and 1 guy for each aether burst in all GY's)
4x Accumulated Knowledge
4x Gifts Ungiven
Lands:
4x Arcane Sanctum (esper land)
4x Island
7x Plains
7x Swamp
Any ideas? I'm considering fact or fiction but that's IMO not even funny anymore, since you'll just split the piles 5-0 every time and I'm sure people are going to complain. It's just a step too gay :) But everything else is fair game!
