Now I play the waiting game……

Or not! Heres a decklist I just helped out a user on the program Cockatrice with, its also a good example of how I format things:

Format: Standard- ISD

Colors: Izzet (U/R)

Name: Subtlety Rouge (that’s the name he gave me, its a WoW reference if you didn’t understand it.)

Budget: Around 100$ (of course, he already had a few of the cards since this was me TWEAKING a deck, not building one)

Goal of Deck: Use good evasion creatures backed up by counterseplls and burn to hit the opponent with equipment, enchantments, etc.

Comments:

-He requested no sideboard, he didn’t explain why

General Changes:

-Removing some spells and messing with numbers to help with synergy and consistancy.

Cutting down on the stromkirk and removing lavamancer.

-Lavamancer, however good, didn’t fit the synergy of the deck.

- Stromkirk Noble is not a human, and won’t get the full benefit of a loxodon warhammer, I mean Silver-Inlaid Dagger.

Creatures I added:

Beserker and Hero make great additions, as they are extremely good and both get boosted by dagger. They also both have some form of evasion which will help them get through to the opponent.

Also, a note on stalker:

He is a bad card most of the time, and won’t see too much constructed play. But here he has 11 ways to enchance him, and were only running two. He may still (and HAS) hit the table without anything to back him up but he still got me Bloodthirst for Berserker, or even just got battlecry from the heroes.

This deck won the guy a few FNMS and he is happy with it.

Send me your decklists or Ideas and I’ll get cracking! I will never refuse to help!
