If you are itching to help, Kazzong, you can brainstorm a bit for thishttp://www.mtgvault.com/puschkin/decks/the-enabler/Added a description.

Just because nobody is posting doesn't mean it's dead. I currently don't need help and/or decks aren't advanced enouogh yet for that step. Didn't post on your deck because it's mill ... ask WickedDarkman for that.
Well, it's from 2012. Meanwhile we have ASSAULT FORMATION.
Generally speaking, if you are so concerned about removal and have the feeling that usually your guys don't survive for long ... why are you using so many mana guys then? I understand BoPs and Caryatid, but Knotvine Mystics? Also, why do you use guys like Cliffrunner Behemoth that need specific other guys in play to be any good? My solution would be to use guys that have effects when they come into play or when they die, preferably both, like Thragtusk (which I would run instead of Behemoth). That way you got your value even if it gets killed right away. Or use guys that you can sac in response for an effect, stuff like Qasali Pridemage come to mind (would be my replacement for Naya Hushblade). Mayael's Aria is also a potentially dead card since it only works if you are already in the lead with a strong guy and some others, but isn't that a situation your opponents are always preventing? Instead I would run something that keeps your stuff in play, like Asceticism. About Realmrazer, he would work well with landfall. Just saying.
Read again. Faith's Reward brings back ALL permanents, no matter how they died.Edit: Oh, you mean when you have to fetch in the turns before? Well, there was no deck so far, so I assumed you can pop them all in the turn you "go off".
Well, you need to be a bit creative here. For example, if you do this with fetchlands, you'll get back more lands than you had before. And Faith's Reward puts those lands into play untapped, so you get extra mana out of it. But yeah, as I said, Squandered Resources is a much better card and base for the deck than Mana Seism.
Yeah, what format are you aming for? Because Squandered Resources is much better than Mana Seism and Natural Balance the better card to combo with. Other cards to consider:- Planar Birth: Limited to basic lands and symmetric but much cheaper than Splendid Reclamation, so depending on the deck structure this might be better. Or maybe in addition?- Gitrog Monster for obvious reasons- Faith's Reward is vastly superior to Splendid Resources (for the same mana albeit in a different colour) since it a) is an instant, b) works on any permanent type AND c) the stuff comes back untapped! Also, it's modern legal and costs about 50 cent ...
Well, first off, this is still a draft. And I play exclusively multiplayer (mostly 2 vs 2, Pentagram, Emperor). This either means I have teampartners that also benefit from Curse of the Forsaken or that there are other players that are now encouraged to attack the player I cursed. They might get a few life but the Forsakened player will eventually die from it. But I am aware of the fact that I don't have enough creatures myself to make it worthwhile as lifegain for myself. The deck isn't finished yet and when fleshing it out, I'll try to solve this. Which is the actual fun part of deck tweaking for me. For example I am considering to add Artifact Mutation: I need removal, this handles artifacts and at the same time provides me with tokens to attack. Played EOT of my opponent and grabbing Curse of of the Forsaken during my upkeep via Curse of Misfortune would net me quite some life out of nowhere. Artifact Mutation would add a fourth colour, though.
I haven't checked all names. You replied here, so I can mark you as active ;)
"Even though I try to comment on other people's decks, I dont think anybody thinks "Oh, someone commented on my deck, maybe I should check out one of theirs. "Well, within the Vault help they SHOULD think this! You aren't supposed to review random decks from outsiders. But to make sure, you could always add a line to your (initial) comments on other people's decks, like a signature, something like "You got this review because you are a member of VaultHelp. Please consider to help out others, too". Something like that. I did that in the past sometimes, partially to increase activity, partially to weed out unresponsive members.
Well, this is a different place now, welcome :)
Well, this project failed, there wasn't any action for a long time and I had bother the members to post. Only the same half a dozen good souls kept on going. You can try again, of course. I'll try to support.About your questions:It is supposed to work like this: You drop your request for deckhelp here, at the same time you pick someone else to help. You can do so by checking out other requests, do a decksearch for the "VaultHelp" tag or browsing the member list. And when browsing the memberlist, the speciality info tells you what these guys are into, so you can pick someone who most likely has similar decks. Of course you could also use that info to directly call someone specifically for help.Note, though, that this was inactive for about half a year, so focus on the new members. I'll update the list of active/new members.

Nah, why? She has deathtouch. And if nobody attacks me, that's fine, too. It's just a bit problematic that she costs also 5, like the Curse of Misfortune. No Rest for the Wicked would be a reanimation card that fits thematically, however, if I run with that, I probably DO need a sacrifice outlet ... which I have BTW, Lyzolda, albeit just a single one. Still searching for alternatives.
Oh sorry. I totally forgot about that ... bitch :) Now that I have more expensive curses, the first thing I should do is upping her to 4 copies.
Hi, remember VaultHelp? That little project that died because people were so goddamn lazy? You were one of the few worthwhile members, which is why I am now asking you to join the Deckhelp Alliance. It's basically the same thing, just in private, invitation only, so we don't have to deal with flukes. So please don't answer here and just follow this link:http://www.mtgvault.com/puschkin/decks/deckhelp-alliance-reloaded/It's actually the second coming of that project and outdates VaultHelp :)
That was another project:http://www.mtgvault.com/puschkin/decks/mtgvault-the-gathering/And it died all by itself, administration was NOT the problem, people just registering but not helping each other was the true problem. Which is why I go back to the private club. But good that you mention it, I'll invite the few worthy participants of that project to join us over here.
