The Rats Will Feast

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

Rat deck. I know there's a million rat decks, and probably a lot of better ones at that.. but this one is for me. :)

Just working with cards that I actually own, for now.

Edit: Added a couple Elixers for a little life boost, plus grabbing dead rats to recycle.


Comments/Suggestions are welcome.

More land. With only 18 land your five and six drops are likely to spend most of the game sitting in your hand.

Should add, I do like it. Is good to see a rat deck that isn't just full of Relentless Rats.

I added a land, (and reduced the heavy mana cost cards by one) but overall I feel the mana curve/lands are just about where they should be. There's a couple Dark Rituals in there as well.

The other thing is that even if I weren't able to play the few more expensive cards, I think the deck can stand on its own without them to a degree.

I want to make a relentless rat deck with the green card that puts all cards with the same name into play :D

but this is still nifty, also please look at my new turn 3 win deck. (standard)

I thought about doing a green/black version, for the card you mentioned. In the end I just liked the look of this better.

i agree its nice to see a rat deck with out a bunch of relentless rats. this one isnt bad the mana curve is fine really. rat decks move pretty fast as is. i would how ever take out at least one ratcatcher, 3 is a bit much.

here is one of my rats nest decks for some ideas. :http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=174073

deff a good build nik.

Thank you for your suggestion. I was contemplating about the Ratcatchers as well, but couldnt decide.

I took a look at your deck you linked.. I really like it. I can't believe I forgot about Konda's Banner! That's something I'll probably add.
