Deck Description

- Casual Torpor Orb Deck
- Concept of this deck is to use Torpor Orb and Stifle to prevent the triggered abilities of Phyrexian Dreadnought, Hunted Horror, and Eater of Days when entering the battlefield
- Mana Drain and Mana Leak, and even Stifle for counters
- Go for the Throat and Dismember for creature removal
- Brainstorm and Demonic Tutor for card drawing/search
- Jace, the Mind Sculptor for his obvious abilities
- Low mana costs with the highest being four so you rarely have to wait to cast what you need
- TURN 2 PHYREXIAN DREADNOUGHTS

Deck discussion for ORB OF PHYREXIA

I love Torpor Orb. It's just such a silly card with the Hunted creatures and the Leveler/Eater of Days and especially Phyrexian Dreadnought. Cool deck, I made something similar. Control happens to be one of my favored decks and it mixed in with a Torpor Orb deck is just sexy.

You might consider Force Of Will and Undermine as alternates to your chosen counterspells. I like the concept.

whats up BFM, im diggin the deck here. ive got a few suggestions. youv got 10 creatures for the combo to go off, i dont think this is necessary, especially with 4 demonic tutors in the deck. 8 should be more then fine. 4 stifle and 4 torpor orbs is good as well. mana drain is an amazing card! in this deck it is a killer, but its 100 bucks a pop so unless you have them already or have some serious dow u might want to try some simple counterspells instead. kflicks is right about force of will, but its also quite expensive so if not no worries. daze is a good replacement to handle turn 1, 2, and 3 spells the opponent will play, as is spell pierce. have you considered making a sideboard for this? if not no big deal. keep it up

I do have the Mana Drains. I've been playing since the Revised Edition so I got a lot of really expensive cards for cheap back in the day same with the dual lands. I love Force of Will but I don't have that many blue cards in this deck. I might have to wait to be able to use it so I would rather be able to use a counter spell immediately regardless of what I have in my hand.
