Oh, and I absolutely love Forbidden Orchard. I use it in my repurcussion deck. Thought about using it in this deck until you gave me the heads up I needed.

And I am a 40 year old who started when it came out, but unfortunately gave away my collection, 'cause after middle school no one wanted to play anymore. Just another sad moment in Magic history lol
I appreciate the time and effort you put into that response! Man, I'm so dissappointed in myself for not looking up the ruling on Overburdened before jumping the gun with making this deck. That really changes things a LOT. I'm gonna have to rethink this deck (with your ideas in mind, of course) and have some more fun building it again.
I guess you could say it's casual budget. The Sol Ring is there 'cause I just like to have a Sol Ring in my deck. Unfortunately that makes it vintage, so it wouldn't be great for tournament play, but fun to play the way my friends and I play. Which is if you got it, use it. Even if it's banned, but I'm not rich enough for those cards lol
It's definitely a fun deck to play. If Ob Nixilis and Crucible of Worlds are on the field and Evolving Wilds is in the graveyard..... it's on! Haha
Great deck! I love the idea of 1 casting cost cards. I drew many sample hands and got mana flooded. Maybe drop it down to 17 or 16 lands?
Thanks Jessie. I know you weren't trying to criticize. You were just trying to help. Luckily most of my friends decks are also slow build up decks with cool ideas, so I have time to get my combos off. One of the best parts about Magic is helping others improve their decks, so thanks again for the ideas. I'm about to post up my discard deck. Check it out when you get a chance. If there's anything you think I should change or add let me know.
Thanks for the advice Jessie. I think I will probably add another Phyrexian Arena to this deck, and maybe some card search. I'm a big fan of card synergy. Mutilate is a great card. I use it in my Massacre Wurm deck. If I start having problems I might toss some in here. Thanks for checking out my deck!
Also a very good assortment of lands... makes me wanna change mine a bit more.
I just bought 2 for $25. It's good to have a friend that owns a mtg shop. Lol
Good call on the fling. I didn't think about that for my deck. Maybe throw an isocron scepter in there? I was thinking about doing that for my shrapnel blasts.
So i went out and bought some cards today. I changed my deck around a bit. I got a couple of atogs, arcbound ravagers, a skullclamp, and a thopter assembly. This deck is a LOT more fun to play now. Thanks again to everyone for the advice.
Arcbound Ravager WOULD be nice in this deck. I might have to get a couple of those.
Thanks everyone for the helpful comments. I totally forgot about Atog. That would definitley be a good addition to this deck. Thank you ninjamonkey for the suggestion. I think I might throw those in there once I put Atog in there. For now I'm just focusing on getting artifacts into the graveyard quicker. Not enough artifact sac for that many wellsprings yet.
The only way to make that card semi-worth playing is by playing heartless summoning first.. then maybe a bad moon. But that's a lot just to make a horrible card worth playing. Haha.
Haha oh man. That is a pretty rough card to put into a deck. If I put that card onto the battlefield I would probably geth's verdict MYSELF lol
