Deck Description

An Extended deck utilizing the Shadowborn Apostles to maximize the combination of Blood Artist and Dark Prohpecy.

To increase the decks effectiveness and cost, replace Harvestor of Soul with Griselbrand.

Most of the times my opponents die to the combination of Shadowborn and Blood Artist while crying every time I play Mutilate.

It is very rarely that I actually get to fish for the Harvester. But it is really fun when I do, and there is a Blood Artist on the table :D :D

How to Play

Do not be afraid to sacrifice your small humans. They are there to die, and to be raised again by Immortal Servitude :)

Kill your humans Bone Splinter to destroy your opponents creatures:
- Blood Artist increase your life total while draining your opponents life. This is also the card that wins you the most games.
- Dark Prophecy ensures plenty of card draw, which may allow you to do it all over again in the next round

Skirsdag Highpriest seemed like a good idea, but there are no cards in the deck I would replace it with. And so it got left out :p

Deck discussion for Shadowborn

Sorry about the disturbance.

I'm trying to establish a new trend in deckbuilding, and I'm inviting everyone I've come across to participate.

I hereby invite you to participate in a brand new trend in deckdesigning that might change the future of how to design decks.

Shortly told, there are two ways that new decktypes are made, the first is by designing something new, the second is by taking the best parts of two older decks, mix it together and you got a new decktype!!!

What I suggest is a turbo-version of mixing two different decktypes into a new one.

You simply split up existing designs into deckhalves (Called halfdecks) that are designed so that they keep as much of the origanal themes of a deck intact, and so that the half can be thrown together with almost any other halfdeck deigned in the future.

Splitting a deck up in two times 30 cards is not so easy as it sounds, so initially this trend will start out slowly, and if enough people adapt the idea it will probably explode into radical new decktypes made from decks designed with halfdecking in mind.

To get a better understanding of the concept you might need to take a look at the first 3 deckhalves I've made as examples. (Bear in mind that they were designed very roughly from memory)

I will improve these designs and add other deckhalves as fast as possible to start up the trend.

YOU, and everyone else that recieve this "spam" are welcome to start up your own version of this project, as it is intended to become everyones, and only by letting several minds work on it independently will it take on a better shape and spread out as a new deckbuilding tool.

Contact me at any time, with any questions you may have.

I only have one wish on how this new trend can be spread. If everyone involved tag their decks as halfdecks then the future halfdeck community may simply write halfdeck in the decksearching function to find what they are looking for!
