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

I've been researching just how much creature damage can a deck do in the first two turns here is my current maximum 26 damage. It is assumed you are playing turn 1 and choosing to go first.

turn 1:
lay mountain play goblin guide
attack for 2 damage

cards played so far 2

turn 2:
lay forest tap it to play Groundswell give Goblin Guide +4/+4
play Elvish Spirit Guide cast Berserk (attack power is doubled goblin now 12 power)
tap mountain play assault strobe give Goblin Guide double strike
attack for 24 damage

cards played during turn 5
total cards played 7

Can you think of any way to do more than 26 creature damage by end of turn 2?

Deck discussion for 26 Creature Damage by Turn 2 without Vintage Cards

Just for fun:

exile Simian Spirit Guide, Rite of Flame, Rite of Flame, Seething Song
play Seat of the Synod, tap it, sac it to Kuldoth Rebirth, spend your URRRRR to cast Mass Polymorph, wiping the three goblin tokens and bringing out the only three creatures in your deck: Quillspike, Devoted Druid, Flame-kin Zealot

The Zealot gives them all haste, Devoted Druid makes Quillspike an infinite power creature, and you can attack for any amount of damage on turn 1.

But the deck would be terrible without that draw, so this is good too. ;)

Turn one
Drop a forest, tap and sacrifice it for Rogue Elephant.

Turn two
Remove Progenitus from your hand to pay the alternate cost for Blazing Shoal, drop a forest and play Berserk, then remove Simian Spirit Guide from your hand to cast Assault Strobe.

Total damage=52 by the end of turn two. Total cards used=8.

HI WhiteAndBlueTheyKillYou,

This deck was orginally posted by mistake in my realdecks account which is supposed to only have decks that really exist that I own. This deck is a thought experiment and has never actually been made by me. When I noticed the mistake I transferred the deck to this account along with the orginal comments which is why it has lost Like points. Hope you don't mind too much that I transferred it here
it just that I only want real decks in my realdecks account.

Hi jarrettbeast97,

The mutagenic growths are an interesting idea what card(s) do you suggest t it replace?

Zero casting creatures like memnite and ornithropter and kobolds are too slow in this deck. I really think this deck has to have hasted creatures for the suprise attack to work.

Maybe your idea of adding zero casting cost artifact creatures would have merit if I added scrapnel blast and great furnace to the deck and drop fireblast. But that's a really different deck than this one. Maybe I'll post it later sometime.
