Also, I'm not really a fan of the neonate.

I might just strait swap the neonate for the berserker.

And, if you do decide to go with delver - it's probably be better to swap the curiosity with 2 gitaxian probe or some red burn spell with flashback / replay ability (like geistflame or red suns zenith maybe).

I like what you're trying to do here. You might consider this:

+4 Delver of Secrets
or
+4 Stormblood Berserker

and
-4 Thought Scour
-4 Vault Skyward
+2 Curiosity
+2 Nightbird's Clutches

and
-1 Tezzeret's Gambit
+1 Devils Play

I ran something similar to this but RG instead a couple weeks ago at FNM. It was a lot of fun and did pretty well (3-2 overall).

This started at 60, then right before the FNM - I bought 2 Garruk Relentless but neglected to take anything out... Ooops!

So, I'd like to get back to 60.

I found myself sideboardig out lead the stampede and beast within. So, maybe we could drop the stampede...

Also, I really liked having Kruin on the board. When he flips, it makes it much easier to get through. Probably want to at +1 Kruin here too.

Any other comments or suggestions, just let me know!

I absolutely agree with the statements you make about werewolves. In fact, I ran it at FNM last Friday and so enjoyed one game in particular where some dorks were talking smack about how weak werewolves were (while they played BW tokens) and I ended up winning with a moonmist.

As far as I can tell, every deck has it's strength and weaknesses. Werewolves forces your opponents to play around the flip. And, werewolves stack their abilities very well with each other - so they can become very powerful quite quckly. The downside is its still aggro and there is a ton of creature hate available, so if you're playing wolves - you just have to play around the board sweeps.

I'll link in the list I played once I get a chance to do the input.

All things considered, I really enjoyed playing werewolves...

I must say that I found the title and comments amusing, but I'm obviously not the target of this effort - so that's easy for me to say I guess.

However, this deck is absolutely worthless. So, I think I find this even funnier if it was intended to be a display of deck-building skill.

Good idea. This deck could probably use some more one-drops to speed it up.

Also, I don't see a lot of evasion here with the creatures. So, maybe we should add more creatures with flying / unblockable / etc, or add a little more removal.

Now that I think about it, -2 Whipflare and +2 Increasing Vengeance might be a good idea too

It's always worth a try. -2 Galvanic Blast and +2 Increasing Vengeance should give it more top end power.

By the way, really like the deck!

I usually play agressive instead of control, so its nice seeing what others come up with. There's so many things you can do with zombies right now.

Here's some ideas for the sideboard:

Spellskite
Tumble Magnet
Phyrexian Crusader
Evil Twin
Memoricide
Black Sun's Zenith
Porcelain Legionnaire
Distress
Surgical Extraction
Corrosive Gale
Curse of Death's Hold
Torpor Orb
Witchbane Orb
Phyrexian Obliterator
Ratchet Bomb
Negate
Sword of Feast and Famine

It really depends on what you plan on playing against. We have a lot of aggro, some control, and what I call "big 6" type decks like wolf run - where they race to 6 cmc and drop bombs. Occasionally, you'll see various fast decks like RDW, delver, spirits. And, can almost gurantee you see netdeck copies of top 8 decks. Tragic slip, vapor snag are really popular too.

So, how about this:

2x Spellskite
2x Tumble Magnet
3x Phyrexian Crusader
2x Corrosive Gale
2x Curse of Death's Hold
2x Distress
1x Hex Parasite
1x Surgical Extraction

Love the idea. Dragons are cool!

Maybe add some mana ramp? Or maybe look for other cards like the shaman that would help you get creatures and spells out faster.

Nice job!

I really like the pod idea here with heartless. Sheoldred can be really fun in these types of decks too.

I really like this deck. If you want this deck to be standard legal, take out the nighthawks and captivating nightmare. Consider using crossway vamp, child of the night, and olivia.

But, if not - I'd go with gatekeeper of malikir, kalistra highborn, and vampire nighthawk as my main creatures. They'll consitently give you card avantage and board control.

Sign in blood works good here too, especially if you have life gain from other cards like the nighthawks, child of night, etc.

Take a look at this one. I've played one very similar to this at the house. It's fast and inexpensive. A little heavy on aggro, but fun.

I was planning on using phantasmal image and evil twin as copy of X.... Either copy my creature or theirs.

However, I'm not sure I understand your question. The image dies if it's targeted. But, if you're referring to the +1/+1 effects, they don't target the image. Typlically, if a spell targets something - it says it explicitly.
