The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.

Deck discussion for The Evil Deck aka TED

As a victim of this deck, allow me to explain. At the beginning of every upkeep you ask how much life you are losing. Most of the time this life goes to TED's controller, and five turns later you enter the, "Shuffle your deck because you just lost" Phase. A reluctant +1.

On a more serious note, I would classify the deck as a burn deck that uses loss of life rather than damage to slowly kill your opponent. This way, it avoids protection spells that prevent damage, and also effects that counterstrike against sources that deal you damage. More often than not, you will not take any damage from this deck at all, you simply just lose life and die. Rundown: Agent of Masks siphons life from the opponent at the beginning of every turn. Souls of the Faultless blocks any attack attempts while siphoning life from the opponent. Hissing Miasma deters attacks in the first place. Infectious Host punishes anyone who blocks it with a loss of two life when it dies. Thoughtpicker can be used to intentionally kill Hosts to drain opponents and kill off cards. Castigate gives a look at what the other player has in store while letting you get rid of a threatening card. Mortify takes care of most things that do get out onto the battlefield. Poisonbelly further punishes creature ambitions and Ostiary Thrull keeps any creature abilities in check. Skeletal Vampire is a mana dump later that gives flying blockers and even a possible creature rush. That's about it.

As someone who has played against this crazy deck plenty of times, It's actually a really great deck. SO what it's a modified Orzhov deck? it works!

I think it's a great idea! The only downside is the mana curve. You'll very likely be left open for the first 2 to 3 turns. Maybe replace some of the land with Dark Rituals (25 land is a lot, considering almost everything costs 3). Yup... that's all I can see wrong with it... :)

Could you do me a favour please and have a look at my T2 burn deck. I'd like to improve it for tournaments and such: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=113982
