Deck Description

Alternative names that would be equally (or, perhaps, much less) appropriate: 'Geddon It On, 'Geddon Noobs on MWS to Ragequit, 'Geddon Sworn At For Playing Stupid Cards....

'Geddon Again is a prison deck I've been working on; it's a design I much prefer to my previous attempts at prison, which were mostly centered around blue-green Mana Breach strategies. The concept is simple: I use cards such as Scepter of Dominance, Thoughts of Ruin, and Boom/Bust to deny my opponent their lands; any damage I do to myself is quickly rectified by the deck's extra lands and its artifact mana sources. Meanwhile, Magus of the Tabernacle and Ghostly Prison are hard at work forcing my opponent to use what mana I let them have on less than preferable tasks. Slowly, but surely, my foe burns out like an ages-old candle - dripping with displeasure, his sanity as blackened and frayed as his wick.

Notes:

- Boros Garrison serves a purpose in the deck that immediately appears odd, but, upon analysis, makes perfect sense. While it DOES make one more vulnerable to an exceptionally unseemly Thoughts of Ruin or Wildfire, it also allows one to swiftly recover from one's own Armageddon effect, thanks to the land it bounces.

- Magus of the Tabernacle is incredible. It blocks like a pro, is impossible to burn away, and forces most opponents into an uncomfortable position every upkeep. A favorite play of mine is: Turn 4 Magus of the Tabernacle (with Coldsteel Heart and 4 lands), turn 5 Thoughts of Ruin. Your opponent is often left landless and creatureless afterward.

Deck discussion for 'Geddon Again

wow!! i enjoy this. i don't think i am going to like playing against it tho. it will be interesting. I'm so happy myojin is in here too. you should at least sideboard That Which Was Taken just for the coolness sake of being able to wipe the board of lands every turn for four mana. I would reccomend putting in some darksteel citadels for their indestructability. also look at shaleskin plower its land destruction and a not too bad creature.

While I like the idea of blowing up the field every turn with Myojin of Infinite Rage, in practice, when he comes out, the opponent is either already dead or going to be immediately after I remove his divinity counter. While I respectfully decline the suggestion of Shaleskin Plower, as I'd like the deck to remain relatively creatureless, Darksteel Citadel is a great, great idea and is definitely going in.
