Good Decks Don't Need Rares

by Idgit1 on 26 February 2015

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

The best thing about this deck is that I made it out of my friends commons and uncommons because when I was looking through his cards he said, "If a card is not a rare, then 99.9% of the time the card is useless." I've never seen a more priceless look of defeat on his face when I would consistently beat him by around turn 6... 32 times in a row XD

How to Play

Toss down a Glaze Fiend, then about a thousand zero cost artifacts later you swing for game.

Deck discussion for Good Decks Don't Need Rares

I could reccomend cards here, like vault skirge, bu thats not the point here.

The point is that a card doesn't need to be rare, or cost twenty bucks to be good. Its about your skill as a deck builder to utilize each card to its maximum potential! I hope you gave your friend a lesson, dude! Down with elitists!

Yeah, people who think that clearly don't understand the game. I made a UW tokens deck with random cards laying around ON THE SPOT and demolished my friends with decks that were pumped full of rares.

I sold my cards once, and would go to fnm with a deck my friend would create for me. It was like he would just cram rares out of his binder into a deck until he hit sixty cards. There was usually a general theme to the deck but it would always be lacking commons and uncommons to help with all the messy spots. They have their place! They are needed! They are good! Look at cards like boros charm! Hell, doom blade!

*like* and thanks for bringing "Glaze Fiend" to my attention.
That's the point why we have pauper and peasant decks...to show that those cards are all, but unnecessary. And those decks can beat the crap out of other decks, especially if they are built like "one of this, one of that, maybe two from this" and so on.
Oh and by the way, I'm missing "Memnite", "Tragic Slip" and maybe 1-2 "Cranial Plating" here ;)

The point of posting the deck wasn't actually to make it better, but to tell a story about how pig-headed some players can be and about how every card is viable. This deck was created about a year ago and it's sitting here today to prove a point.
