Drawpower

by Napu on 29 June 2013

Main Deck (60 cards)


Sorceries (4)


Instants (16)


Enchantments (2)


Land (20)

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

Another idea to an alternate win-condition deck.
The idea is simple. Draw either your own deck away or your opponents, while countering and unsummoning whatever he/she throws at you.

How to Play

This deck can be quite simple to play. Sometimes though, it can get complicated to play.
All you have to do is get out as much drawpower as possible. If it goes fast enough, you will suceed in drawing either yourself or your opponent out before he/she kills you.

Reliquary Towers so you can keep all the cards you draw

The point to discard to 7 all the time is to be able to use Elixir's effectively.

Wait, if your goal is to reach zero cards in your deck with Laboratory Maniac, why would you have a card to return your entire graveyard to your deck?

If your opponent kills all your maniacs. Though there's plenty of options to take them up to your hand or cancel out, it's still nice to be able to extend your lifespan while your opponent doesn't.

hell also if you wanted to really fuck someone over also have gnat miser and locust miser, so they have to draw insane amounts of cards then just discard them at their end step. Of course that would mean a splash of black, but just an idea really

A pretty cool idea, but I was trying to keep it blue. :)

Underworld Dreams
Psychosis Crawler

Or, for more draw:
Forced Fruition

Those a excellent ideas, however the idea with this deck is to only with by either milling yourself or your opponent.

Spellbook if you somehow don't feel like running reliquary.

That's also a possibility, however I to me previous reasoning for not keeping the cards in hand but in the graveyard. To be able to bring them back with Elixir. :)

I had actually thought of that card, because it can really mill someone out.

if you are going to do that, then run at least 2 so that when you psychic spiral, you'll return the other one back to your deck.

True that. Maybe run it instead of all the elixirs.

Cool deck, check out my Draw deck if you have a sec. It would be interesting to see how they would match up

Depending on the situation both decks will have chances to win, I think. If you get Arcane Laboratory out earlygame, I will have a chance to cancel everything else out, or atleast the worst things from your deck, whereas if you don't play it, I'm pretty much screwed.

If you wanted an alternative win condition, psychosis crawler would do great in thia deck

True that but when I created this deck I wanted the win-condition to be card-draw, not life-loss. :)

Haha you'd kinda win by card draw, when ever you draw they lose a life... nd if thats the case, jaces erasure might be a neat thing to try

True that, but the essence was by milling and not by loss of life, even if it's through card-draw. :) I'm aware it would be far more effective with Psycosis Crawler + no max handsize.

Btw you should find room for isochron scepter, every instant you have cost 2 or less and that would really have the opponent sweating with counterspell or boomarang on it

Not a bad idea at all, Isochron could really do a lot.

If you really want to mill someone out, and do it damn quickly, like you're trying to do, why not a few Jace's Erasures? For every card you draw, they mill a card. They'd be milling like hell and you could still keep your alternative win condition. I would also suggest an Arcanis the Omnipotent. He's a fun way to draw cards and he's not too too expensive for what he can help you do. Also, low drop draw cards would help this deck immensely, such as Gitaxian Probe and Think Twice.

Yeah, did think of those cards and I do think I have some of them lying around. I might just try it out and see what happens, thanks. :)
