Surprise Butt Sex

by Gothy on 03 February 2015

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Instants (5)


Planeswalkers (1)

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

I've always found manifest interesting and I think it works really nicely with Temur Sabertooth in case you hit land or an instant or worst a Xenagos. Just don't try and un-manifest Purphoros as he stops being a creature, he just works well with Whisperwood Elemental. A card you may want to consider if you build this is Shaman of the Great Hunt because its just a good magic card.

How to Play

You want to try and be the aggressor in most games, however against aggro flooding the board with 2/2s while shocking with the big boy allows you to deal damage and be defensive. If you're meta is control, this may well be the deck for you!

Why did your deck name give me a very nasty visual?
I need my head checked.

Cool deck, nice idea although I think you could do with some more manifest cards. Dumb name though.

the issue is which ones are actually good enough? And the name is just to get people in

Tbh I think the white ones seam to be the best but that would mean adding another colour to the deck so the mana base becomes expensive.

Fierce Invocation?
If you are lucky it Manifest your Hydra.

I am thinking Manifest is going to be awesome with blue, with Top, Brainstorm, Ponder, Scry.

A card that is pretty handy with manifest/morph is ghostfire blade! Easy way to make them a little more dangerous, then flip them for cheaper equip! :D

Also, Master of Pearls and Dragon Eye Savants are neat in this sort of decks for their flip abilities.


Edit: Sneaking my deck in!

Its not as heavy morph enough to put ghostfire blade in

No, but manifest sort of does the same thing. You'd end up with a bunch of colorless 2/2s to put it on. ^.^

I actually did a different version, I didn't want this to rely on manifest considering only 8 enablers in 60, I've done it in a dedicated morph/manifest but that is unlisted because i built it for one guy XD

Ah! :3

Right! I've not tried to make use of morph/manifest yet, but its definitely something I've considered trying to build.

Well it starts out, if you go GR, a little like this, then you realise that R/G aggro is a better deck xD

Right, right! I imagine so. Morph/manifest does not strike me as a particularly aggro-ish deck. More midrange/control with its flip abilities and more expensive cards. But! For aggro, R/G is usually the way to go.

Well I've always seen it as midrange because of the constant creation of creatures, but the card advantage gained from that should hopefully nudge you ahead

Mhm. I hope that someday one of the decks I create makes it to the front page. I thought I was going to get there with one of them, but it never showed up. It made me sad. I figured 7 likes and 28 comments would do it, since I've seen some on there with like, 4/3, but oh well. :(

5 is the minimum, it might not have got them in a short enough time though, trust me, just keep building decks, you're more than welcome to post on my articles, that's what they are for, and just build quality decks that can do powerfully. It was my Dramatic Entrance deck that really got me on the map, like count is at 52ish

Yep, I liked your decks Fairemont, for what it counts. And it seems like, on average, you have to have 5 likes within a day of making the deck. And that is hard to do. Sometimes it is just pure luck if your deck gets noticed. Or the name of the deck that gets you noticed (Gothy proved that). It is an iffy system, at best.

When I really, REALLY, want a deck to make it to the hot page what I do is this:
1. Copy and post a link to my deck.
2. Go to new deck section, pick out several decks that I think I may be able to help with, and comment on the decks with suggestions that may make the deck better.
3. Go to the unloved deck section and do the same thing. Find several decks that I like or can comment on. I tell the deck creator ideas/cards that I think will make his/her deck better.
4. Finally, I post my deck link to their deck page and ask something like this "If any of the cards I suggested or ideas I suggested help, then feel free to check out my new deck and give advice."

It is a lot of work. For sure. Look at how many comments I currently have! But it does work sometimes.

I cruise the new/unloved section a lot. Sadly, I am not the greatest with suggestions all the time. I'm getting better as I gain more familiarity with the cards, but otherwise I have to just scroll through a database and look at cards or search for them by rule texts if there is something I can think that might be useful.

We're hanging out over at http://www.mtgvault.com/fairemont/decks/grixis-rage/

and making it awesome. Come help! :D

Ye I do the same as Jessie, but I also put a crazy name on because it grabs peoples' attention, high 5 to the face actually came from when my rugby coach explained I hadn't punched someone, I'd simply high fived them in the face!

I'm not creative enough... or maybe brave enough to wield creative titles like a sword of clickbait.

I like this deck, but I might put Hero's Bane in since it can get very powerful with enough mana.

It's really expensive mana wise, and needs a lot of investment... all to see a hero's downfall, I think it's just a bit too mana intensive
