Deck Description

Any one ever see Doctor Who?

This deck was indirectly inspired by another defender deck I saw earlier, and in my search for other Defenders which could benefit it, I came across a bunch of artifacts with defender. I always loved the Weeping Angels in Doctor who and the implication at the end of the Blink episode that any statue could kill you if you weren't looking at it.

Hence Colossus of Akros: a 20/20 Trample Indestructible is ALWAYS impressive.

So I decided to build a deck where the rules were simple: ALL creatures must have defender, ALL nonland cards must be artifact, lands CANNOT produce or require for an ability colored mana of any kind.

A truly colorless deck.

Of statues.

That can kill you.

Enjoy!

How to Play

Very basic here: your defense is your cheap defenders like Consulate Skygate, Shield Wall, and Guardians of Meletis. Throw a lot of metal down between you and your enemy. Gain life with Tomb of the Spirit Dragon, and buy time.

Buy time to get out your mana. The Urza's pump colorless mana (and I love there flavor so boom: they're in) and if you're missing one (as you inevitably always are) expedition map will search for ANY land so there you go. Then if you need another for some reason snag it back with a buried ruin and search again.

Your early offence is dependent on getting Warmonger's Chariot. Equipping it to Wall of Spears or Haunted Guardian can give you a nasty first striker to toss around. Later though, get out you big ass golems and wreck shit.

Not the best deck, easy to outplay no doubt, but definitely fun and flavorful.

Deck discussion for Don't Blink!

As anyone looking at decks I design may notice: I love flavor and weird build conditions. If any of you can think of a off the wall artifact or colorless card that fits the flavor here, let me know!

Thanks for looking!

Dude, this is hilarious. I greatly approve. Maybe shifting wall? If your deck had colors, I would recommend living wall just because the art is awesome, and fits the theme. The person's closing her eyes, and right then, the wall attacks.

Maybe not defender but colorless and powerful, Metalwork Colossus.
