I will probably add 3 or 4 Pact of Negation for when I try to pull off my win...that way if they counter/lightning bolt/etc Wall of Blood, I can cast the Pact of Negation and still win. Besides that, it will stay as is.

Of course I can...free counterspells like Foil, Daze, and Force of Will will belong in the deck.
And fyi, she looks like a Final Fantasy Character.

I will get on it.
I have not used or even seen the card.
Just looked it up. Looks like a very combo heavy deck type.
You will be after Puschkin, if you don't mind.

Okay. Will do a few of those Puschkin, for sure.
Some of those challenges I may not do. "The Lore" I already covered when I made a deck featuring William Shakespear flavor text.

The first one is Freyalise's Winds.
Only 9 decks in Mtgvault history running Freyalise's Winds....so that is a challenge indeed!!!

Stuff that taps opponent's items come quickly to mind. I.e. Blue cards like Deluge.
Ring of Gix...i remember you, and you shall come in handy too!
And Winter Orb...is that possible to fit in? Or too consuming with Winds?
I will work on it.
And the untap cards. I have never used them...but I think they would work, right? Maybe not.

51 dollar for store credit sounds damn good considering they want 20 dollars a piece in cash for them.
I mean, if I bought 3 Goblin Guides from them it would be 60 dollars.
51 dollars store credit is only 9 dollars less than what their value is.
And I have several cards I want to get with that money.
I need 3 Argothian Wurms to have my LLC done.
4 Goblin Lackey and a few Recruiters/Ringleaders to have my Goblin Tribal done.
And 4 Dimir Machinations to have my black sac deck complete.

As of right now, the Goblin Guides are just sitting in a cardboard box, going to waste, not being used, or appreciated.

In a very small/rural area. Most people would not play the game even if they knew it existed. Closest game shop is about 50 minutes away and all they are worried about is Tournaments and Drafts. They sale or trade very little, unless you just show up at the right time, when there is someone there with a lot of cards worth trading for.

Guy I played Magic with..haven't seen him in several months. And he didn't really want to trade anything. He choose to buy any cards he wanted.

So I am left with a Card company that will only give me part of the value for the cards.
51 store credit or 41 in cash.
And that has went down.
A few months ago it was 55 store credit or 42 in cash.

And yeah, just got back into Magic after quitting for 10 years.
The price of Force of Will and Lion's Eye Diamond made me poop my pants!!!

All the staple cards held their value or went up in price.

I should of spent more money on the cards, 10 years ago.
But I was young will very little money to spend.

I have 3 Guides.
My friend gave them to me.
I never use them. Trying to wait until the market peaks and sale them off.
That is the flaw in me trying to wait...because if they reprint them, my 3 copies will go down in price.
They were at 25 now at 20 dollars.
TrollandToad is willing to give me a total of 51 dollars store credit for 3 of them.
Or 41 in cash.
I am being greedy and want more though.

All the cards with 1 and 2 copies...it makes my head hurt!!
lol, joking aside, I wish damned Gravecrawler was cheaper. Seems like Zombies and Goblins are expensive Tribals.
Especially with staples like Gravecrawler and Goblin Lackey.

Love the concept of this deck.
The "unless" key word. Neat.

I still cringe when I do not see people play Fireblast in their burn deck.
Please find room for it.

Mind checking this one out?

Just bought this deck. I had 2 Wall of Blood 4 Dark Ritual and 1 Death Cultist and 20 lands. I just needed the other 33 other cards. The 33 other cards cost me 11.50 dollars. Uber cheap. I traded 1 portal Sylvan Library for 17 dollars and still had 6 dollars left in store credit. I have had the Sylvan Library for over 10 years without ever using it.

Sure...it is a one hit wonder and can be disrupted with about every single card in Magic...but this is the idea behind my 2 favorite decks as well as this deck of yours:

1. All 3 of them are under 30 dollars.
If I lose...the price of the deck almost acts as a barrier against my pride and my opponent bragging. Sort of like telling myself, "Don't be hard on yourself Jessie, your deck only cost 15 dollars!" and "Stop bragging asshole Hank! One of your cards, in the deck you just beat me with, cost more than my entire deck!!"

2. Imagine the wins you do pull off.
Your opponent, "Holy crap Batman, nice win!!" and me, "Yep, and it only cost 15 dollars for the entire deck!"
15, 20, even upwards of 30 dollars is affordable price to have fun. And I guarantee the surprise wins you get with this deck will be fun.

3. I don't want to play a 500 dollar deck and get beat down with a 30 dollar deck.
Nothing sucks more than to be beat with a deck like this one!!
It has one win condition that is easily defeated.
So, I would hate to play a deck I spent years saving up the money for, to be beat down with a 15 dollar deck.
