Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

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

This deck is based from a format (originally made by somebody I do not know and additionally by me ) called Reverse Magic. The format has these rules:

~60 minimum card decks.
~30 starting Life Points for each player.
~Starting hand of 7 cards.
~You control your opponent's deck and your opponent controls your deck.
~You have to lose the game to win.
~You have to build decks with some intention to win the normal way and with the intention of winning the "reverse" way.

Gameplay is as normal, but the players control their opponent's deck (this is only a two-player format). I hope you guys can give me tips for how to expand this formats. Thanks for looking at this deck and I hope you guys liked it. Enjoy!

How to Play

Since we are using this deck in the Reverse Magic format, we have a few options:

A: Play aggro with the opponent's deck and cause them to block (causing damage being dealt to you most of the time)for a win.

B: Play aggro / control/ midrange with the opponent's deck and (if they do nothing), attack yourself until your victory.

It is pretty simple, because this deck is meant to kill it's self or be killed by opposing attacks.

Deck discussion for Reverse Magic 1.0

Let me break the format by giving you a deck with no lands and one drops, with exactly eight eldrazi titans so that you will be drawing and discarding and, once you reach the bottom of your deck, discard an eldrazi that shuffles your graveyard back in, thus restarting the cycle for you. I however will simply draw and pass, knowing that it's just a waiting game before I draw empty.

Though I might have forgotten something in the description that I will be adding now: "Alternate/randomize Games 1,2,3 to be regular or reverse magic, that way people will try to build decks with the intention of winning." (quote from isleep2late from MTG Salivation). For an example. Mine plays as a regular red aggro, just instead of it burning the other player, it just will burn you instead.

Okay, that makes a bit more sense. Otherwise the game would just be a game of who draws first.

So when you are playing the regular way, does your opponent still control your deck? And by having to lose, do you mean your deck has to lose?

AwsomeA good point. You have to lose playing the deck you have to play (i.e. your opponent's deck for the "reverse" way). When playing the regular way, the all of the rules stay the same as regular magic the gathering rules. Thank you for asking for the clarifications. I didn't even notice them.
