[Deck] Affinity

[frogger42]

That second Opal is such a bad topdeck that I find I need a way to utilize it. I'm not a huge fan of Ravager, but I dug through my box of semi-playables and found Looter Il-Kor. That guy loots your dead Opals and lands, and suits up with a Cranial pretty swell. How about:

4 Ancient Den
4 Seat of the Synod
4 Darksteel Citadel
4 Adarkar Wastes
4 Mox Opal
4 Chrome Mox

4 Chalice of the Void
3 Cranial Plating
1 Batterskull
1 Sword of Light and Shadow
1 Sword of Fire and Ice
4 Thoughtcast
4 Force of Will

4 Ornithopter
4 Stoneforge Mystic
4 Looter il-Kor
4 Master of Etherium
2 Vault Skirge


I like the idea of Forcing to save your Chalice, that's been pretty sweet for me before. Looter's the weakest card in the deck, but I think it's better than Riddlesmith and there's about nothing else in blue that's runnable. Just trying to stir up some thoughts here, not sure if there was another thread for Force affinity.

I think -Adarkar Wastes for 2 City Brass, 2 Glimmervoid. 2 Looters and 2 Vault Skirge = 4 Tezz. DS Cit 4 = Vault of Whispers 3 + Cranial Plating #4. That's what I'm working on now. I ran another really diff list the other night, and being able to Force a Daze on my Chalice won me a game easy. The two are really powerful together; what Chalice doesn't soak up, FoW usually gets. I think the power level of the cards here is higher than normal Aff, perhaps over 9000. Except for the Looter, but I could always use suggestions for another card in that slot. Prob not Jace or anything, because I run so few shuffle effects for the Brainstorm. I'd still like something of that power level, maybe V Clique though I know UU is tough to come by.
