<_<

I have actually...My buddy DoTheWumpus has a shade tribal =P

Still, this will have been the second one I've seen, and it looks pretty good. Not too keen on the 4 Nirkana Revs, and undying evil seems like an odd choice, but besides that, it looks good =]

I think you'd be surprised how many of our decks were netdecked over the recent "dark days" of standard. My Kuldotha Rust deck was the cookie-cutter RDW until rotation and I can't count how many legacy designs of ours (including WnB) that have popped up =P

I try to stay away from most events because I don't care that much about tourneys and I don't want that attention again (I used to design decks for professional players around Lorwyn). I do jump into some Legacy tourneys on occasion though.

I know that Ethan does tourneys all the time, in standard, modern, and I think he's done some Legacy.

Ragged has been in some legacy and standard stuff I think.

Blame EthanLewis and raggedjoe for that. A lot of people were playing some variation of their Boros designs.

Yeah it's mainly casual. The only truly competitive color(s) for landfall is Boros. In fact, Boros Landfall was the deck to beat in standard for a while (even before everyone realized how stupid powerful Stoneforge was). Thankfully I like Boros, so I'm ok with it =P

And I can't tell you how many people have told me Scrib is a bad card...only to be shown just how good they really are. They're one of those dudes that looks semi-useful on paper, but in practice are surprisingly good. With even one out I'm consistently tearing away at the opponent's deck, and the land munching ability is great, not just for the lifegain, but also because it increases the gap between my excess of lands and their lack. =]

And remind me to look at it if I forget, but right now I am just way too busy, sorry =/

Feel like something's missing...

It's not going to win any tourneys, but it's fun, and it works pretty well for what it was supposed to do. =]

Eh, I think it's just a little too slow. I love the Kuldotha Phoenix though, and I've certainly seen what it can do from playing against my buddy's Phoenix tribal =P

Thanks, and like the title and deck description say, I just had to get the idea down so that I can manipulate it later. This is actually the only deck aside from my "celebration" decks that I don't have in any physical form =P

And here is the result of said creative juices! So again, thanks =]

The answer...

I don't ._.

Not too shabby =]

I have a feeling Soulbond will be a powerful ability, but until A.R. is out, it's not too easy to get a real tangible feel for how it plays out. I can't think of too many good flashback cards off the top of my head, but you might want to take a look at those to get a little cushion from Tibalt's +1. This deck actually got my creative juices going, so thanks for that =]

I hear ya man...I have a bad feeling this site is going to get really crappy before it gets good again. The admins are working hard on a new version of the site (V3 they call it) that will keep these boosters from running rampant, but until then, we just have to kind of ride it out =/

In any case, if you have any decks in particular you'd like me to check out, I'd be happy to =]

Well right now there is a huge issue with people using alt accounts to boost their crappy decks up to the top, thus why the top decks list basically looks like a joke...it is. Sorry these asshats are effecting you guys =/

Commented =]

9, 8, 12, 7, 1...that's not too bad, a little slow, but not bad.

Alright, well the deck is actually quite well off at the moment. I'm unsure it will win any high tournys, but it should hold its own in most events. I would personally lose some of the token creating spells like Gather and/or Midnight in favor of some more reliable aggro such as Tormented Soul and the like. Otherwise one well placed BSZ, Ratchet, or even Elesh Norn will completely gut this deck.

I say keep the Bloodlines. Those dudes are amazing and VERY underrated in my opinion. I use them in my vampire tribal deck and they're genuinely OP in the deck, but even in a deck like this they're a great choice.

I see no reason for you to keep the single Evolving Wilds. It's just slowing you down man.

Finally, I personally don't know if Mike is worth using...HOWEVER! I know a lot of people who swear by the dude for token spam decks, and I can see why...If left alone, he is great for tokens. There's just something about him in this deck that bugs me, but I can't put my finger on it =P

Mayhaps drop one wall of roots? That's where I'd squeeze in a second one at least. Hey by they way, shameless plug incoming!

Mind taking a look at my latest deck? It's a new design of my Iso-Pox =]

Looks pretty good, but I would swap the numbers on Deathgreeter and Pulse Tracker. Pulse will help you more than DG over all. I would also take out 2 of each of the enchantments. I know they're the focus of the deck, and it's a great trick, but having 4 of each makes for a really ugly and slow mana curve.

I might use that extra space for some more bleeders like Pillory of the Sleepless, etc. You could also use the spot for Tainted Sigil, since that could be devastating in a deck like this.

Idk, with everything else it'd still be a 4 life shift for just 2 mana =/

If you could provide the link, that'd help me a lot =]

And sadly not really. One of my biggest regrets with many decks I make, and many I don't or even never have is that there are a good number of decks that, try as you might, simply can't be made in a budget-friendly way =[

Alright, might you have any suggestions as to improve upon the design? Also, I don't want to sound like a jerk here, but this deck is an experimental hybrid of Pox and Iso-Seek, two Legacy decks that are, quite frankly, ill understood by the general public. So, and again I apologize if this isn't exactly the case, it appears that you might not fully understand how this deck works, and therefore see it as 'unfocused'.
