Deck Description

I created this for a big tournament I'm playing this sunday. It doesn't feel very finetuned yet, with very land heavy starting hands. The idea is to open as a zoo deck and finish with Seismic Assault. I have Confidant and Forgotten Cave/Loam.

I need to make it better!!

Deck discussion for 4c Aggro Loam

Ok, so I kinda understand how this deck works, but obviously its hard to fully get the concept when I havent played it or anything. So if you could explain to me a lil bit of what its full purpose and win condition is, I could try to give ya some suggestions. But for now Maybe lightning storm would help this deck out? not too sure, but let me know

Life from the Loam returns 3 lands to your hand and has dredge 3 so you can keep on taking land back. Seismic Assault says discard a land to do damage. That's the main kill of the deck and is often used to control the board as well. The rest is straigth forward aggro, get damage in as fast as possible and finish of with assault.

hmmm, i like it, does it take long to get going? or does it move along pretty quickly?
and i imagine you didnt think lightning storm would work with it? prolly screws with the main combo to put it in huh

The deck is very fast but I ended up going for a slightly different 3 color design in the end and took that to a tournament (and won).

I didn't know about Lightning Storm, it's a very interesting card. Strange design too, putting counters on a spell instead of a permanent. I think it could actually work in a life from the loam deck. It's simular to seismic assault in what it does but not as good as it is a one shot spell and it can backfire. You can't play it if you have less cards then your opponent.

thanks for the suggestion!!

no problem, looks like a really fun deck, I've never had to face one like this before so it'd be interesting to try and play it for sure! I like original decks, never seen a land based aggro haha
