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

It all started with the glorious Pierce Strider. I thought to myself, "I sure would like to strobe these things." Right now the deck isn't perfect, so give me some input. I would like this deck to be from the last two blocks. The idea is to just make killing my creatures either hurt my enemy or be just plain hard to do. I originally wanted to make an annoying paper-cut deck and this ended up being my 7th iteration or so. This deck as it stands is untested.

Step 1: Stall
Step 2: Mimic Vat / Venser the Sojourner
Step 3 - 10: Peirce Strider / Bleak Coven Vampires Strobing
Step 11: Profit

EDIT: I managed to shoe horn Electopotence into the deck to turn my pierce striders into double pierce striders! Electropotence turns Venser into a SUPER CHANDRA!!!

i do like it, but i think it needs a lot more control and card advantage in order to get the combo out.
also, 20 land is a bit low, like 4 or 5 too low.

However, 1of venser also seems too low.

i'd work focusing on it a bit, and 1ofs are awful for consistency.

3 colors also seems a bit rough...

I'm kinda inspired though, and i appreciate this sort of blink theory, you made a comment on my stonehorn dignitary deck that had to do with blinking and i kinda like it. this past 2 sets have had a lot of blink-worthy cards.

just as a very small adjustment, you could switch out blinding mage with Gideon's Lawkeeper, for one less mana.
