Sideboard (33 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.


Deck Description

Trying to come up with an America deck. Any feed back or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

How to Play

The key combo is to have Elite Arcanist and Silence in your hand. Then play Elite Arcanist and exile Silence. Next turn is to play Ral Zarek, then play Silence at the beginning of each turn. (Both yours and opponent's). You will be able to do this by +1'ing Ral's ability to untap Elite Arcanist at the end of your turn. Once this is done, the opponent has very few options and can only draw a card, play instants only when it is their upkeep.

Can also use Elite Arcanist and Lightning Strike or Magma Jet (scry 2 each time). If Guttersnipe is out, that is 2 addtional damage to target player. Basically use this to just kill off opponent's creatures.

Then there are the beat down combos, Medomai the Ageless and Aurelia, the Warleader. Can Boros Charm them for the double strike. Any information or help on this is welcome!!! (Side Board)

Let me know what you think and critics are welcome!


Please pay no attention to the Side Board. I use that as my "thinking" board :)

Thanks manofwar51! I'm ready to try it out. Wont have everything here until Thursday. I really need to figure out what to do with the side board. Hopefully someone can help point me in the right direction! Let me know when you get the Izzet version done, that in fact will be quite interesting.

I hereby invite you to participate in a brand new trend in deckdesigning that might change the future of how to design decks.

Shortly told, there are two ways that new decktypes are made, the first is by designing something new, the second is by taking the best parts of two older decks, mix it together and you got a new decktype!!!

What I suggest is a turbo-version of mixing two different decktypes into a new one.

You simply split up existing designs into deckhalves (Called halfdecks) that are designed so that they keep as much of the origanal themes of a deck intact, and so that the half can be thrown together with almost any other halfdeck deigned in the future.

Splitting a deck up in two times 30 cards is not so easy as it sounds, so initially this trend will start out slowly, and if enough people adapt the idea it will probably explode into radical new decktypes made from decks designed with halfdecking in mind.

To get a better understanding of the concept you might need to take a look at the first 3 deckhalves I've made as examples. (Bear in mind that they were designed very roughly from memory)

I will improve these designs and add other deckhalves as fast as possible to start up the trend.

YOU, and everyone else that recieve this "spam" are welcome to start up your own version of this project, as it is intended to become everyones, and only by letting several minds work on it independently will it take on a better shape and spread out as a new deckbuilding tool.

Contact me at any time, with any questions you may have.

I only have one wish on how this new trend can be spread. If everyone involved tag their decks as halfdecks then the future halfdeck community may simply write halfdeck in the decksearching function to find what they are looking for!
