Deck Description

"The three things were damnably clever constructions of their kind, and were furnished with ingenious metallic clamps to attach them to organic developments of which I dare not form any conjecture. I hope - devoutly hope-that they were the waxen products of a master artist, despite what my inmost fears tell me. Great God! That whisperer in darkness with its morbid odour and vibrations! Sorcerer, emissary, changeling, outsider.. . that hideous repressed buzzing. . . and all the time in that fresh, shiny cylinder on the shelf. . . poor devil . . . Prodigious surgical, biological, chemical, and mechanical skill...

For the things in the chair, perfect to the last, subtle detail of microscopic resemblance - or identity - were the face and hands of Henry Wentworth Akeley."
- Albert N. Wilmarth, in the story The Whisperer in Darkness by H. P. Lovecraft.

Deck discussion for Yuggoth

Now that is some literature worth quoting!

I quite like this. It has a, well, 'smoothness' to it that is very appealing. My one concern is in regards to some items of your sideboard. While I can see both Wear/Tear and Abrupt Decay coming in useful, I worry about their costs. With Mana Confluence your only means of casting them, it leave me feeling you could run into a snag.

I recently finished another project of mine for Modern, and it has been Lovecraft both times that gave me the spark of inspiration to finish them. I could not help but give credit to the stories that I love for helping me!

Thank you Artemis, I'm quite proud of the way this wound out; the 'smoothness' it demonstrates is of an odd curve, which I have never used before. I am quite enthralled by the idea of putting it under the microscope so to speak.
And as for your concern, I share it entirely. I was simply at a loss as to what to use for Artifact/Enchantment hate, and I simply went with the most useful options I could think of. They necessitated I use Mana Confluence, which I don't particularly mind, but as it is my /only/ option for casting(as you said) I am at a loss as to how effectual it will be.


Edit: Seeing my own comment leaves me wondering if I should stop my binge reading, it's having drastic affect on my speech patterns.
