Deck Description

The idea behind this deck is to take over an opponents creatures and gain control of them permanently by using Bazaar Trader's effect. Conquering Manticore, Act of Treason, Mark of Mutiny, and Mind Control can be used to gain control of a creature then Bazaar Trader is used to pass it permanently to me. Aura Finesse can be used to move Mind Control onto new creatures. By passing a mountain I control to an opponent then placing Volcanic Strength on one of my creatures it becomes unblockable. I threw in a few counters to stall in the early game and Clones to create copies if needed. It seems as if the deck will be slow to get going but with the proper hand I think it will play well. I did not include Roil Elemental because of the cost but I am still considering it. I have not actually constructed this deck yet, it is just an idea I am toying with so if there are any comments or suggestions I would be happy to hear them!

Deck discussion for U/R Creature Takeover

Other cards to consider: Roil Elemental, Vapor Snare, Domestication, Traitorous Instinct, Call to Mind among others. I felt it best to leave these out because they are not as good as what is already in the deck or their cost is too high.
