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'm doing a cycle of deck called "Ahead Of The *Color* Curve, in which I try to follow a mono-colored distribution of 6X/8X/12X/5X/3X/1X, where X = Card(s) and the number is the mana cost.

I also try to get a feel of the color used for the deck.

No set used before Return to Ravnica.
No set released after Return to Ravnica become illegal in standard will be used.

The decks are a works in progress.

You need to make this faster. Add two more Shocks. You could go down one Chandra. Take out Chaos Imp. Replace Punish the Enemy with something low costing.

Hello, thank for the help but I'm just starting a cycle of deck I call "Ahead Of The *Color* Curve, in which I try to follow a mono-colored distribution of 6X/8X/12X/5X/3X/1X, where X = Card(s) and the number is the mana cost.

That is super interesting. I like this concept, but you should definitely mention that in the deck description. And I'm wondering if the curve your presenting consider things like the fact that Awaken the Ancient is kind of like a 5 drop, since if you drop it on turn 4 you can't take advantage of the haste? Would a Thunderous Wrath count a 6 converted mana cost even though you can play it for 1 mana if you miracle? Also you only have 2 one-drops and 12 two-drops, am I missing something in your formula or is this on purpose? Sorry if I sound like I'm being really critical, I'm really genuinely interested.

Thank a lot, it's encouraging !

I added a description of the cycle.

Now as for the questions :

1) I didn't noticed that, tough that's not a big problem imo, it's doesn't say enchant untaped mountain so it will be ready for next turn and even a regular 7/7 creature by turn 4 is pretty awesome imo, and if I drop it later, I get the bonus as a compensation.
2) I don"t wan't to use pre-RTR cards.
3) It's an error, thank you for catching it.
4) As long as it's constructive, I call it helping and I appreciate it.
