Old School Speed Black

by Sol'Kanar on 08 April 2010

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Classic black beatdown at its finest. Whip out the cheap creatures, slap on the cheap buffs, and creaturekill anything that stands in the way. Very straightforward.

Strengths:
Speed. Slow opponent dies by turn 5 guaranteed.

Weaknesses:
Speed. If it doesn't win by turn 7 or 8, it probably won't. Opponents who survive the initial onslaught face you, empty-handed, drawing only at more speed.

I've been playing with this deck since 1994. Here is the latest incarnation, largely unchanged after 15 years:

Deck discussion for Old School Speed Black

this looks awesome...I prefer a longer game of Magic, but this looks really effective, like you said. Great job =]

Comments on my decks are always appreciated!

An old standard. I was happy to discover it is still fairly effective after all this time, even against newer decks.

I've been out of the game for a while. I can't wait to update this baby!
