Deck Description

This deck is complete crap and almost not worth typing about. I sent this text message to my wife right after I got done building the deck and before Match 1 pairings were announced:

"Deck I drafted sucks. We'll see how it does."

====================================================================
THE DRAFT
====================================================================

I drafted the Sliver Hive as a collector, but even if I replaced that one card with one that would have worked in the deck - it wouldn't have helped. Ultimately what did me in was trying to draft artifacts to go with the Scrapyard Mongrels.

Such a bad idea.

I usually avoid any and all cards with required board states. The one time I go against my personal rule and try to think outside the box makes me want to never leave the box again.

Such a horrible idea.

====================================================================
THE MATCHES
====================================================================

Match 1
(Ryan) B/G Dredge: 1-1-1

Match 2
(Jim) Mono Blue Ensoul Artifact: 0-2

Match 3
(Scott) G/B Aggro: 1-2

Match 1 was the first time I ever played a Dredge deck in limited. I really enjoyed watching it play out. The only reason I won the first game was due to my opponent decking himself. In the second game he removed the few creatures I had and kept attacking. The third game ran out of time because of my lifelink. I can probably count on one hand how many times I was able to attack in all three games. The synergy of the cards I drafted was horrible. Black wanted the long game. Red wanted the short game. When combined: They produced a slow crappy mess.

Match 2 lasted less than 5 minutes...

Game 1...
Turn 1: Darksteel Citadel
Turn 2: Island. Ensoul Artifact.
Turn 3: 15 life.
Turn 4: 10 life.
Turn 5: 5 life.
Turn 6: 0 life.

Game 2...
Turn 1: Island. Ornithopter.
Turn 2: Island. Ensoul Artifact.
Turn 3: 15 life.
Turn 4: 10 life.
Turn 5: 5 life.
Turn 6: 0 life.

I actually won the first game in Match 3. The draws were good and my deck worked in the "perfect scenario" way. In the following games my face was beat in by 4/4's that kept getting +1/+1 counters.

My deck was far too slow for aggro...

...or any other style deck designed to win before turn 20.

How to Play

Hold onto life with lifelink.
Pray you draw Flesh to Dust to remove the biggest threat.
Attack if you can with the only creature you have on the board.
Shake hands and say "Good game" to the person that just beat you.
