Power Shot

by Tortorus on 05 January 2014

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (86 cards)

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.


How to Play

This deck strikes in one big hit.

A) Creature + Assault Strobe + Reckless Charge = 10/X creature with haste and double strike.

B) Creature + 3 sorcerys/instatnts, Assault Strobe included. Option A won't work if we get blocked. That's why we need Artful Dodge. And we 'll most likely need to be protected, Mizzium Skin is great choice. Always safer with some counter spell in your hand!

All we need is to get those few cards.

Deck discussion for Power Shot

You have some nice cards in your sideboard. Impulse is a good choice too. I would take Impulse over Faithless Looting any day. Look at top 4 cards in your library and pick ANY ONE OF THOSE to put in your hand. That is an extreme advantage.

I like the Gitixian Probe over Preordain.

Mystic Tutor is banned...might consider Browbeat instead. Yeah, it doesn't search for a card, but it does let you draw 3. It is an idea. Only reason I would run a banned card that lets you search for a card...if that card you search for is your winning combo card. If you are using Mystic Tutor to just pull any old card out of your library...might not be worth making your deck banned for.

Friendly Suggestions would be: Take out Faithless Looting, Preordain, and Mystic Tutor (might exchange Magma Jet with Lightning Bolt, too). Add in Impulse, Gitixian Probe, and Browbeat.

I like what you are trying to do with this deck. Good luck.

The reason of playing Mystic Tutor is to get cards desired in your combo. And that's also why I included Faithless Looting, Preordain and Magma Jet. Point is not to draw cards, but to draw proper cards. Beacause without combo this deck sucks - almost no protection against fast and/or aggro decks (that's why I included Mystical Tutor, I found it wasted and unplayable. Then I finished R/B Snipers).

Your suggestions are great and it could possibly work. Have been always fan of Browbeat and I considered it. But I 'm not really sure if it 's worth of playing. Because opponent would probably take those 5 damage. He 'll most likely still have full life, while you 'll have many cards in hand. And if so, three mana would threat one-attack strategy. Impulse looks quite good, I 'll try it. Also 'll return Gitixian Probe.

Thx for advices. I would be honored if you could say few words about those snipers, which I find much more fun than this is.
