No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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

Slight modification of TheChurchIsHere's deck "Torpor Orb Shenanigans" ( http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=333432 ).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Torpor Orb prevent +1/+1 counters from being put on undying creatures when the return via undying?

Deck discussion for Torpor Orb Shenanigans - Ded Edit

neat except that torpor orb cancels out Geralf's Messenger's "2-life" ability. Might want to switch him out for something else. I'd recommend Vexing Devil x4. You can check out my "Hell's Trickery" Deck on the front page for ideas if you like. It also uses Torpor orb similarly to yours.

Hi DedWards,

I see you like Torpor Orb as much as I do.

Minor things might try adding 2 Dismember substituting for 2 Bone Splinters to increase chance of using
Tragic Slips.

Disemtomb or Postmortem Lunge in sideboard as tech against counterspell.

Might experiment with adding 1 or 2 Black Sun Zenth over Fling they can be used to remove +1/+1 counters to help undying creatures gain undying again.

Some people claim Volt charge is good decks with lots of counters you might experiment in adding 1 or 1 over Brimstone Volley.

Would really appreciate your opinion on my standard
Tainted Undying Evil Deck.

Pretty sweet. I'm pretty sure undying triggers when the creature dies, not when it re-enters the battlefield, so I don't think torpor orb will counter act it.
