Deck Description

Original deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=199375

Took out 4 Vampiric Tutor and replace them with 4 Needlebite Trap to make deck Legacy Legal.
Also added 3 Grove of the Burnwillows to combo with Needlebite Trap.

With Bayou in play turn one win is possible if spells not countered.

Dark Ritual + False Cure + give all opponents 10 or more life gain by casting for free Skyshroud Cutter, Invigorate, two Refreshing Rain, or two Reverent Silence = False Cure does net damage of 20 to opponent

More Likely Turn Two Win

Silence or Orim's Chant (Uses up opponent's counterspell) + Dark Ritual + False Cure + give all opponents 20 or more life gain by casting for free Skyshroud Cutter, Invigorate, two Refreshing Rain, or two Reverent Silence = False Cure does net damage of 20 to opponent

Deck discussion for False Cure Deck - Version 2.0

neither will kill your opponent. remember, they still gain the life so they'd be at 10 life not zero.

Hi heliosofcows,

Yes, you are correct. If they gain 10 life they will loss 20 life from False Cure thus have net loss of 10 life.

Likewise, Needlebite Trap + Grove of the Burnwillows normally does 4 damage for opponent for cost of one Black mana and you also gain 5 life.


But it is possble to win first turn, just need a good opening hand

For example,

Card 1 - lay Bayou
Card 2 cast Sky Cutter for free (Bayou counts as a forest) - opponent gains 5 life
Card 3 cast Invigorate for free on Sky cutter - opponent gains 3 life
Cards 4 & 5 - cast 2 Reverent Silence - opponenent gains 12 life
Cards 6 & 7 - cast Dark Ritual Cast False Cure for 40 damage - 20 life gain = net life of 20 which should be game.

If you have any deck you'd like me to look at post a link.

nice i thought that using three colors is a little hard with false cure maybe just cut it down to just two colors might help care to comment on some of my decks: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=246995
