Oy, so here's the dilemma. I've managed to make a SB-less Aggro Loam for under $100, but the situation here is: which splash do I go?
B: Tombstalker, Terminate
W: Knight of the Reliquary, Nantuko Monastery (1-of), Swords to Plowshares
So which way to go? I have a fetish for Tombstalkers so I'm tempted to go the B route, but my friend says W is better...
Somehow, both are under $100 even with the vile SCG, so I'm not sure how that happened. Granted, under the budget, the land base is a lot jankier, but they still work, just at a slower pace. And it's budget, so what can you do?
Any insight would be great. Thanks in advance!
So the splash choice can be summarized this way, with the W splash listed before the or and the B splash listed after:
// Lands
3 [ON] Forgotten Cave
2 [MI] Mountain Valley
3 [ON] Tranquil Thicket
5 [IN] Forest (2)
4 [SHM] Mountain (4)
1 [OD] Barbarian Ring
3 [ALA] Plains (2) or 3 [TE] Swamp
1 [JU] Nantuko Monastery or 1 [SH] Volrath's Stronghold
1 [JU] Riftstone Portal or 1 [MI] Rocky Tar Pit
4 [10E] Terramorphic Expanse
// Creatures
3 [MOR] Countryside Crusher
4 [OD] Werebear
2 [OD] Terravore
2 [CFX] Knight of the Reliquary or 2 [FUT] Tombstalker
// Spells
2 [PS] Hull Breach
4 [TO] Devastating Dreams
4 [RAV] Life from the Loam
4 [FUT] Coalition Relic
3 [FUT] Edge of Autumn
3 [10E] Seismic Assault
2 [A] Swords to Plowshares or 2 [PS] Terminate
B: Tombstalker, Terminate
W: Knight of the Reliquary, Nantuko Monastery (1-of), Swords to Plowshares
