Deck Description

This is a deck I actually used to run a LONG time ago. I sold all the parts a while back, but I wonder what it would cost to build again, ugg, I don\'t even want to think about it. Oh well, what do you all think?

Deck discussion for Illusion of the Mask

Oracle text for the mask: "X: You may put a creature card with converted mana cost X or less from your hand into play face down as a 0/1 creature. Put X mask counters on that creature. Play this ability only any time you could play a sorcery. The creature's controller may turn the creature face up any time he or she could play an instant by removing all mask counters from it. This effect ends if the creature is turned face up."

Note: the creature's come into play abilities never trigger.

Illusionary Mask is one messed up card, I can say that is the oddest and most confusing MTG card I have ever seen, not to mention that Oracle has pretty much changed the card completely. Anyway, very nice deck, I might build it some day...

I don't know if you know this, or I'm wrong, but Ball Lightning's ability isn't a trigger ability, so if its flipped, so do you have to sacrifice it?

The oracle text DID change th card completely, it actually makes the deck a ton easier to play. I used to have to attack with my creatures to get them tapped so they would flip, but not anymore.

Yes, you do have to sac it, but the matter the mask deals with is the RRR, it makes it just 3, so much easier to play in a 2 color deck.
