Which Paths to Take?

Hi fellow players,

I finally got the hang of the deck builder tips Seth was showing me for evaluating in my previous thread. I went ahead and uploaded all six of my decks to the vault and was seeking some advice.

I will begin attending a Sunday Legacy Tournament at the local hobby shop with my first time going this week. Of my six decks (I've dubbed The Six Paths to Pain) what two would you bring with you to the tournament as they stand today?

Secondly, if i have a budget of about 75$, are there any changes you would make to any of these decks to improve them going forward?


Attack of the Elves! - Dude's 1st Path to Pain

I'm going to vote for #6, especially if you drop the 1 cursed rack, simply because you want to be as close to 60 cards as possible. I'd also look at replacing the terrors with Dark Banishings, because being able to target artifact creatures with kill spells is a good thing.

thanks for the advice, definately gonna take a look into the dark banishings today (i think i have a couple in what i dubbed the pit at my house... its this giant box of cards that holds the collection i accumulated over the last 16 years!) I was playing the deck last night and i think im also going to add a damnation as i have been finding its having problems staying ahead of weeney decks and i think it would still put this deck at a solid 63 cards! any other tweaks you would make to this deck?

Also i am allowed to bring a second deck because its some weird double elim format where you can switch decks in between opponents. Any suggestions on a second deck of mine you would take and any tweaks you would make to that one?
