Creature-Counterspells-4
Mystic Snakes-4
Mass Removal-3
Artifacts-3
Nevenyrral's Disk-3
Now for the reasons I picked some of these cards.
Counterspells
Force of Wills- Blue/Green Control Force of Will Duh.
Counterspells- See above.
Mystic Snake- Probally should be something better but I don't know what. The reason it's not Counter Balance is because I don't know what to take out for Sensei's Diving Top.
Removal
Nevinyrral's Disks- A control deck without mass removal is a dead deck. There is probally better mass removal like maybe enginered explosives (Which I'm probally going to put in the side-board).
Draw
Serum Visions- A good cantrip that will help draw the land you need early on.
Brainstorms- Blue Deck Brainstorms Duh.
Wall of Blossoms- This one is probally iffy but it cantrips and has 4 toughness for a 1G. It helps block fast aggro decks ie. Goblins.
Harmonize- There probbally a lot of better draw spells but this can be pitched to Allosaurus Rider.
Opportunity- Probally should be fact or fiction only time and testing will tell.
Win Conditions
Tarmogoyf- A very fast and big beater.
Allosaurus Rider- Yah I know an Elf?! But as long as you protect your lands (and face it if you don't while playing control your'e probally going to lose) he is going to be really big Dinosaur riding elf who eats enemy tarmogoyfs for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And Face it who doesn't want to be able to say they killed the opponent with an elf.
Basic Strategies
B/G/R Vial Goblins.
This is the only competive deck I've played against (I leant my deck to a friend). If your'e facing against goblins the first thing you must do is pray to whatever higher power you call god. The second thing actually depends on what kind of hand you have. Lets say you have an opening hand consisting of Fetch, Tropical Island, Brainstorm/serum visions, Force of Will, Wall of Blossoms, Forest, and Mystic Snake. And you are on the play that's actually a pretty good hand. If that cantrip was brainstorm play your fetch and end your turn. If it was Serum Visions play the duel land and use it.
Lets say it was the brainstorm. You had passed the turn to them if they play aether vial fetch for an Island and brainstorm lets say it gets you disk, opportunity and force of will put the disk and force on top in that order. And don't counter. Same thing with lackey. Your turn draw the disk play a forest and play wall, draw the force. There turn they play a piledriver don't counter it. Your turn you draw an island play it. There turn they play counter it with force removing msystic snake. Your turn you draw a goyf, play the duel play disk. There turn they play hooligan counter it. They than vial in matron and get ringleader. Your turn you draw serum vision. Use it you draw Allosaurus Rider (Thank the god you prayed to earlier.) You look at the to cards they are harmonize and an island put harmonize on top with island under it. Play the goyf and end turn. They vial in ringleader and get the nuts but they only play Wort bogat Auntie. Your turn you play harmonize draw island, fetch, and goyf (my we're lucky today) play the fetch than attack. Blow the disk and play goyf. There turn they they play warchief, piledriver, and fanatic, they attack block piledriver. Your turn you draw opportunity, play the last land in hand. there turn they play ringleader you use opportunity and draw the nuts (force,mystic snake, brainstorm, and land). You counter the ringleader removing snake. your turn you draw a disk. you play land play the elf thats in your hand. You eventually win even though youre health is like 3. The funny thing is this was an actuall game I played.
The only other deck I played this against was a five color 80 card sliver deck. Which I crushed.
Any help with the deck would be appreciated.
When I test some more I'll post results.
