Praetors Taking Liberties

by dainir on 05 May 2011

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

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 Description

I realize I have a card of every color in this deck and have listed it as only black and green. I only intend to use those cards as bait for Karn. The use of Birthing pod on bloodghasts allows me to pull out the other creatures in my deck. When I do sacrifice a creature I get an eldrazi spawn. Allowing me to ramp into Karn Fairly easily as well as Vorniclex and Sheoldred.

Mirran crusader is in there because I feel it is the best standard 3 mana cost creature I can find. Other possiblities however are, Royal Assassin, Glissa the Traitor, Transcendent Master, Vampire nighthawk and possibly Transcent master.

The extra creature control is always a plus.

Anyways, any help or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Deck discussion for Praetors Taking Liberties

I'm sorry, but I don't quite follow. When you sac Bloodghast, what are you grabbing? just Pawn of Ulamog? Doesn't seem very useful once they are all on the battlefield.

Also, How do you mean the Praetors are bait? Bait for your Karn? Just to exile from your own hand? What is your opponent attacks karn in the process? I definitely see the potential in Fauna Shaman in this combo.

After I submitted that, Mirran Crusader appeared, which is a good addition.

You don't need to fetch only 3 mana creatures with your Bloodghast. You can fetch Emissaries for mana ramp and any of the other creatures. I am not sure how well everything works as I am more making this for a deck challenge than anything.

As for being bait for Karn, yes I intend to exile them from my hand and use Karn's ultimate. I never have to have the mana to get them into play. The other options for mirran crusader are listed above.

Any suggestions you have I would greatly appreciate.
