Deck Description

A 5-color deck I've been testing and tweaking for awhile now. It may seem like it's a bit crazy, but it works quite well and has been my pride and joy of my entire MtG career!

How to Play

The deck just focuses on setting up the board early on with Farseek and Lingering Souls to protect us, as well as some control elements. Once it hits some good lands or (even better) a Chromatic Lantern, the deck explodes, playing large spells, game-winning creatures, and planeswalkers with ease. The main win conditions are either using a highly efficient creature package or Door to Nothingness, but there's also a suite of Walkers included, any of which can win games with their ultimates.

Sweet idea, I might build it, But I need more of the cards. Very interesting. Again, I like it a lot.

Thanks for the comment man. Yeah, it honestly took me quite awhile to build it, but it was sooooo worth it. It's really fun and the sheer power it has in that it can play any card, regardless of color, is awesome. Nothing like playing a Sphinx's Revelation for mas life and drawing, then next turn play Gisela, then follow her up with Griselbrand. That kind of flexibility from the mana base and Chromatic Lantern always draws funny looks from opponents at FNM's or other events.

Hey have you tried this deck out? How did it go?
Looks like a very fun deck to play, might try it when I get the rest of the cards!

I can see an aggro deck being a bane.

Though aggro decks are a bane to everything regardless -_-
