I was talking to somebody, and they said it's been a while since I've tried a new derivative of Pox. I was sad to find out that there wasn't really a new found kind in mono-Black, but then I was almost ecstatic to discover that there was a wonderful idea in BG using the DarkStage/Thespian'sDepths combo!Obviously, I have to try my hand at it.

DarkStage Pox...Something about it makes me wince. It works, beautifully, but it feels so "non-Pox" if that makes any sense.I love the full set of Chalice, and the Sideboard/Wishboard is great too. Three Chains is a nightmare I never want to deal with.I dunno, I love the design of the whole thing, I just have this feeling like it's thumbing your nose at the gods of Pox hahaha.Oh, and why Peat Bog?

That's because Poxless Pox decks aren't proper Pox decks. I have frequently admitted to being an old fogey when it comes to control though, so perhaps that's just me then. It works wonderfully, but it's just not what I was looking for truly.It kind of makes more sense to play this as a five Pox build to me, using the 2:3 setup. Dropping either Souls' Betrayal, or a Deluge for the added card.Any deck playing the full set of Chalice always makes me giddy(when I'm playing it), and Wishboards too. This is just like somebody made a deck of things I love.Edit: I got somebody to fold after I put a second copy out in another build I have, turns out when you have three cantrips in your hand, it gets depressing to see multiple copies of Chains XDI think the closest thing to that would be Algol, or some other Lovecraftian entity. I just like the idea of Algol best.It's like Lake, but without nearly as much pain, and more suited to the mana demands of the deck.
Oddly enough Algol in any context fits the bill. There's the Lovecraftian Algol, of course, but there is also a super villain named Algol and a star in the constellation Cassiopeia named Algol that is often referred to as "The Demon Star" because of its very strange cannibalistic nature.
I don't know the super villain, but I do know the Lovecraftian demon, and the actual star(which in the story was the demon). Oh, and the Soulcalibur character.
