Deck Description

Sneak Attack Deck using Dragons. This deck was Extended legal when I made it and was the inspiration for my new Dragonstorm Sneak Attack Deck. This deck was fairly consistant in doing 20 damage by turn 5 with 1 or 2 turn wins possible.

The Sideboard contains cards that were suggested to me to solve certain limitations of the deck.

Deck discussion for Dragon Sneak Attack

ever thaught what would happen if you faced a counter deck. or what if you attack and I use boros fury shield, you could 1 hit your self.

Ancient Tomb is probably a better choice than Crystal Vein. City of Traitors is another good choice but I wouldn't run more than 2. I expect that this deck is decent against counter since you just need to protect the Sneak Attack. Once that's in play, the dragons are abilities and not spells so they can't be countered. 4 red Blasts might get you by. Some Vexing Shushers would seal it.

Boros Fury-Shield is a single target spell and wouldn't reflect the damage from multiple sources.

You can hardly 1 hit with a boros fury-shield. I would expect someone with the name mtglord to know a bit more about the cards than that. you can take a whopping 6 damage MAX from a shield, no where close to a 1 hit kill. And in addition to xaviern007's true comment, not only does it target a single source, the double strike wouldn't deal you 12 damage cuz it only deals damage equal to its power to its controller, not the damage prevented. I would take xaviern007's advice but the deck looks good

last thing: vexing shusher (as mentioned above) is really a great sideboard card, you know just in case.

I have yo agree with xaviern007 run Ancient tomb or City of Traitors they go well with Chrome mox and seething song. Also consider Zirilian of the claw, it makes dagon Tyrant all that much more of a blow out. But i would highly suggest that you try these cards.

Made some of the suggested changes and some of my own as well. Never had a problem with Counter Spell Decks because the deck comes out faster then most counters can get mana for. The only problems I had with this deck when I played it was Discard Decks and CoP Red. Any suggestions on how to cope with those?

Is this deck casual or 1.5 tourney because if it is 1.5 Force of Will and Daze could serve as a problem especialy early on. So Thresh is a horrible match up in tournement Landstill as well.
