Deck Description

I have always loved combo-decks in Magic, and always wanted to create my own homebrew combo-deck.

Painter's Servant and Mind Bend is quite broken so I decided to make a deck out of these two cards.

How to Play

The idea of the deck is to lock your opponent and win with Gideon and/or Kiora.

So how is this done?

Creature-lock:
1. Play Painter's Servant name "Red".
2. Play Wrath of Marit Lage
3. (optional) Play Orb of Dreams to make all creatures enter tapped

Land-lock:
1. Play Choke
2. Play Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
3. Play Mind Bend to change the text of Choke to Swamp
4. (optional) Play Orb of Dreams to prevent lands from entering untapped

Win condition:
Either:

Pump Gideon to a certain level and beat your opponent with him. Since he is not a creature at the untap step he will untap normally even though you have the creature-lock.

Or:

Ultimate Kiora and hit your opponent with three 8/8. Prophet of Kruphix will help you untap your own permanents, including the octupus.
