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

[u]Basic Idea[/u]
This deck is intended for first-time players. To make a beginner friendly deck I decide to keep the deck extra simple, so that the new player can focus on getting to know the rules, tactics and understanding what's going on.
I already had an equipment deck, Hammer Time, but wanted to make a more conventional one.

[u]Cardpool and Budget[/u]
Mass-strengthening-effects (+x/+x to all creatures) and cards with multiple effects are not allowed. Lands are limited to Common's and Uncommon's, no Rare's or Mythic's. Other cards are limited to Common's, Uncommon's and 1 Rare (max. 4 copies) per deck, no Mythic's.
The overall budget should be between 15 to 20$. (Estimated mid value).

[u]Upgradeability/ Room for improvements[/u]
This deck is bound to a general strategy, named "Equipment" where you use equipment to strengthen some of your creatures that will then deal damage to your opponent.
As this is a general strategy, in opposite to concentrating on a certain keyword or tribe, it should be easy to improve the cards uses in this deck and to keep the deck up to date. New released editions will often contain cards that can be fitted into this deck.

[u]Tests[/u]
I have tested this deck against other beginner decks. The decks I tested against are a mixture of Control and Aggro and the result are recorded in a spreadsheet. If you're interested in details from the spreadsheet, feel free to ask.

[u]Conclusions from the tests[/u]
The deck, like it was to be expected from an equipment deck, packs a heavy punch and is able to deal with anything but the biggest creatures. [[Swiftfoot Boots]] makes the deck a really dangerous opponent for everything that relies on removal like [[Doom Blade]]. [[Sunspear Shikari]] shines against decks that drain life.

I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to improve this deck.

How to Play

Play one of your creatures and start equiping them with some gear.
[[Sunspear Shikari]] shines against decks, that like do drain life, like burn or aristocrats, while [[Kor Duelist]] and [[Porcelain Legionnaire]] are more of raw power creatures. The most important thing is to equip [[Swiftfoot Boots]] as fast as possible, when going against an opponent that uses removal, to keep your precious creatures alive.
