Orzhov deck!

Today I'm doing something different. I've decided to show you all a deck that I've brewed at home. I'm not sure if other MTG players have made decks like this, but here is mine.

Mainboard
4 Spawn of Mayhem
2 Cast Down
1 Gideon Blackblade
3 Prison Realm
4 Seraph of the Scales
2 God-Eternal Oketra
3 Mortify
2 Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord
4 Vampire of the Dire Moon
2 Oath of Kaya
4 Tithe Taker
4 Adanto Vanguard
4 Temple of Silence
1 Shalai, Voice of Plenty
8 Plains
8 Swamp
4 Orzhov Guildgate

Sideboard
1 The Wanderer
3 Shield Mare
1 Cast Down
2 The Elderspell
4 Duress
1 Cry of the Carnarium
2 Despark
1 Massacre Girl

So the card Vampire of the Dire Moon is from a set that isn't coming out for a few weeks. The card Vicious Conquistador can sub out for Vampire of the Dire Moon while it's still not out yet. 

Okay so the game plan here is somewhat basic. We start out with smaller creatures but get benefits from them while were waiting for our big creatures. We have lots of removal to deal with threats early and later in the game.

 Once we get to four mana we play a card like Seraph of the Scales, or Spawn of Mayhem and now we can start swinging in for lots of damage. It's also possible to play Spawn of Mayhem at three mana but it depends on the situation.

 At five mana we can drop God-Eternal Oketra and start getting tons of value. We can end the game by attacking our opponent with all the tokens Oketra makes, or we can swing in with Oketra and any of our other creatures to win the game. Now we can't always get all these cards in this order, so we have removal to keep us alive until we get Oketra or any other game enders.

So that's it, I'll try to be posting everyday now. See ya!

New Challenger Decks

The new challenger decks were just announced! There will be four decks, each having sixty cards and a fifteen card sideboard. Each deck has a different theme, and the idea is that they will be standard playable right out of the box. The four new decks are: Allied Fires Final Adventure Cavalcade Charge Flash of Ferocity Allied Fires is a  Fires of Invention  deck with a heavy load of uncommon (and a few rare) planeswalkers. It's in the Jeskai colors, although I should note that the deck does include  Kenrith, the Returned King , which has abilities that not every color in the deck can use. Final Adventure is, like it's name, an adventure deck. It has a lot of adventure creatures, as well as synergies to go with them.  Edgewall Innkeeper  is there to provide some value and  Lucky Clover  can copy the adventure side of the creatures. Cavalcade Charge is a mono red aggro deck....that's about it. However, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. The...

Pioneer

Pioneer, the new MTG format, was just announced by Wizards of the Coast. It has there full tournament support, and they have announced future tournaments for the format. But what is Pioneer? Pioneer is a non-rotating format, and the card pool is from Return to Ravnica and up. So that means you will be able to play cards from the Theros block, Tarkir block, Kaladesh block, and many more. A lot have been comparing it to frontier, and expecting it to fail, but there is a difference. Frontier had a smaller card pool and not a lot support from Wizards of the Coast. Pioneer is a bigger card pool, support from Wizards of the Coast, and even has competitive tournaments coming up. Pioneer has so much possibility, looking at all the decks from past standards, it's hard to decide what deck to play! Before I go any further, I do want to say that there is a ban list, but it only includes the five fetch lands from Khans of Tarkir. Which is fine with me, but at the same time there is so many...

Double Masters: The best set...Almost

     Double Masters is the newest Magic the Gathering set releasing on August 7th. Each pack will contain two of everything you usually get. So two rares or mythics, two foils, all that good stuff. The cards included in Double Masters are like a dream come true. Cards that have been expensive in the past are being reprinted: Jace the Mind Sculptor, Mana Crypt, Force of Will, Karn Liberated, Blighsteel Colossus, Dark Confidant, Doubling Season, Mox Opal, Sword of Fire and Ice, Exploration, Cyclonic Rift, I could go on. It finally feels like players will be able to get these expensive cards that they couldn't afford in the past. Unfortunately, the price to get sealed product is way too high. One booster pack, just one single booster pack, costs fourteen dollars! That is one single booster pack, not a collector's edition, not a VIP pack - one regular pack costs fourteen dollars. And a booster box? Well, you can find one of those for $320. The price is just way too high. Yes,...
