Tempo decks

[pippo84]

From when I started playing mtg I always liked playing tempo decks and control decks, in fact my first deck was Dreadstill!

I am now going to sell some cards, what tempo deck do you suggest me to keep?

Canadian
Dark *****
Team America
Other deck suggestion are welcome..

And why? What do you think the advantages are between one and the other?

Thanks for the help!

Don't sell, just make more somewhere else. Everyone always regrets selling out of anything in a couple of months anyway. Go mow lawns or something.

If you were in America, I'd say keep TA since it seems to be good in this meta. Not sure about Italy though.

Dark Tempo Thresh.

Deck is underrated. You also keep the more expensive playables that can be used in other decks (Goyfs/Bob/Duals) like Team America (Tombstalkers are cheaper than Bobs), and Bobs can be played in other decks e.g. Rock/BW etc

Canadian Thresh is really good in developed metagames, with a heavier splash of tribal/aggro/BW etc. Dark Tempo Thresh is weaker in general due to the lesser synergy of the black splash with the tempo plan (i.e. no burn reach) but a resolved and protected Bob more than covers its weakness. You play DTT because you know that Bob is the best creature in the format.

@dahcmai: I want to sell part of my collection because I realized I don't use most of my cards and I'm pissed about the high prices. I can build whatever blue deck with foil cards and FBB duals. I just want to keep 2-3 decks to swap from time to time not loads of cards I don't need.

But the decks share the most expensive cards (Forces, Wasteland, Goyf) besides the duals you want to keep anyway.

All of these decks play Goyf, Stifle, Wasteland, Force, and I would suggest you hold onto the duals. Most of the deck-specific cards aren't that expensive.

The only card of extreme value without much overlap is Dark Confidant. Decide if you want to play him again, and then consider selling your playset. Otherwise I think you should just keep everything else.
