well, half your deck wont be standard in two weeks....

Switch out Exquisite Blood for Vizkopa Guildmage to keep your infinite combo

as for Blood Artist, Lingering Souls, Typhoid Rats, Oblivion Ring, and Vampire Nighthawk....idk man. good luck

sideboarding is game specific...you take out what doesnt work and put in things that are more helpful....its not a set thing.....

Venser's Journal

like I said, I run G/W elves, which is a Craterhoof Stompy deck, and Garruk fits perfectly. hes not bulky, he protects himself by dropping a creature, he potentially draws you 5 cards, and his ultimate is stupid good. witchstalker is just a 3/3 here, unless youre playing against blue or black. its a SB card, imo.

-4 witchstalkers (to the SB)
+4 Garruk, Caller of Beasts


the synergy that the new Garruk has in creature based decks is too good to be ignored in a build like this. I run G/W Elves, and you can hoof for the win on turn 4, with the right draws.

I dont think this site does that. Additionally, this is someones decklist, not the forums. post your questions in the appropriate places.

so what happens when they Slaughter Games the Cyclops? how do you win then? what does Cancel do against Slaughter Games and Abrupt Decay? nothing? sweet. Guttersnipe provides a quicker way to WIN. Cancel slows down an opponent. the -1 is for a bad suggestion.

direct damage is better

well, its not mine, but I have a similar deck that I posted over a month and a half before this. there is a Nivix Blitz deck that I suppose gets credit for it...Travis Woo, i think?

the deck isnt his idea, so i doubt you really need permission.

you want to be dealing damage on every turn possible. Door slows this deck down considerably. the tradeoff isnt worth it.

skullcrack is better in the sideboard against lifegainers. spear is much more useful

do not take out slumbering dragon. it slows down aggro decks and can be used as one drop removal with scourge on the board.

take out Wild Guess for Thundermaw Hellkite until rotation. I have a very similar decklist, and it runs better than you would think on MTGO.

lotus, youre wrong. the "four-of" rule in constructed is the same as the "one- of" rule in EDH. the Format legality refers not to the number of cards you can have, but rather IF it becomes banned in a format (in which case, the "any number of" would try to overrule the ban, and would not be able to because of this ruling) this card's ability in question is EXACTLY the same as Relentless Rats, which, as stated, is legal in EDH in any number.

its pretty bold to claim that youre going to lay the longest ban of my life on me. I dont know what your problem is, I didnt make any untrue statements, and simply called out a pretender. if you cant handle an internet argument, maybe you should take up knitting. there isnt any friction in knitting. so many crybabies around. its absurd.

probably because hes banned in EDH

the rules on a card always overrule the rules in the book. yes you can.

you talk a lot of trash, kid.

any deck with Cartel Aristocrat gets an upgrade with blood artist. fact.

so dont play it turn 3, play it turn 4 with protection. it will all depend on the kind of deck you are playing against.
