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

Old-school discard deck with the self-imposed limitation of using only pre-Eighth Edition cards. This is my oldest current deck; its earliest build having appeared circa 2000. Also notable: one of the Hypnotic Specters was in the first pack of Magic cards I ever bought (a Fourth Ed. starter deck).

Deck discussion for Miller's Crossing

This is the stuff I love to look at. Older builds with older cards with older mentalities.

Great make up with the constraint you put on yourself. Love the mana curve, too. In place of Ebon Stronghold, though, consider Lake of the Dead. It offers you similar flexibility. And for added flavor, Cabal Coffers will give you some fuel for your Drain Lifes (Lake of the Dead will help as well if you choose to add it).

My library pretty much consists of pre-8th cards. I've gotten in and out of the game a handful of times starting since Revised. If you get a chance, feel free to take a look at something of mine.

Thanks for the suggestion; I think I do have one Cabal Coffers laying around so if I pick up a couple more or a few Lakes at some point I'll try 'em out in this deck.

This deck also has some nostalgia value to me as I'm pretty sure one of the Specters in it was in the first pack of Magic cards, a 4th ed. starter pack, I bought back in '95 soon after 4th came out (like you, I've played on-and-off since then), and a lot of the cards are from 4th and Fallen Empires, which were still some of the newest sets when I started.

I'll take a look at some of your decks when I have a chance!
