A to Z deck

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

This is my A to Z deck...one card for each letter of the alphabet, you can have multiples of that one card, but no more than one card per letter. It actually went together pretty easily, I started with W-X-Y-Z and found cards for each, then I found U-V & Q. Since that went smoothly, I went through the alphabet A-on...until I got to J, and I own no black cards that start with J (I had decided early to make a mono-black deck). I only have one "J" land, which would work, but it didn't add much to the deck, so I decided to use Jayemedae Tome instead. UPDATE: I've replaced Jayemedae Tome with Jar of Eyeballs (lower cost, lower activation cost, more benefit, that's a no brainer).

This is not a fantasy deck, made up of cards I WOULD LIKE to have, this is a deck made up of cards I actually own...even though I haven't actually put it together in the real world.

How to Play

For a made up deck with silly construction rules, the deck isn't half bad. 20 cards that cost 1 mana...that's a very playable deck. It's primarily a creature based deck which utilizes sorceries, instants and enchantments to pump up creatures for a bigger bang. Simple enough. A number of cards either come back from the dead, or bring cards back from the dead. Throw in more than a few cards that force players to sacrifice creatures, or force discards...there's plenty of disruption to support the attackers. I'm tempted to throw this one together and play test it (if it didn't require digging so many cards out of my other decks, that is).

Revised 2/18/15 - finally put the deck together (in the real world), for a contest between me and my Magic friends. Their making their own A to Z decks for a showdown. Should be fun. I tweaked the deck quite a bit, removed some cards I didn't like, replaced them with better ones, took out one I didn't realize I didn't actually have (and found a suitable replacement). Now it's ready to play.
