Deck Description

What it comes down to is Waste Not Vs. Pack Rat...

Waste Not brings chances of shutting down our opponent early with explosive plays and gives us relevant blockers/attacks in the aggro match up. Waste Not is harder to deal with, but can be really awkward after the opponent stablizes and we are top decking(without raven's crime in the bin)

Pack Rat is bridge friendly(as you can attack with it and pump it with discard/mutavault after it has attacked) This takes a lot of slack off the back of bridge while facing aggro deck. It turns our dead late game draws into rats which we can either use as brick walls and ride out the racks or ult lilly blowing up only our bridge and swing for the win.

How to Play

SB:
4x Grafdigger's Cage
4x Surgical Extraction
4x Leyline of Singularity
3x Darkblast/Smallpox(depending on deck)

4 Urborgs is actuly needed, we need double black by turn 3.
Also if we draw extras we can just pitch them to raven's crime or lily(I have never been upset on drawing 2+ of these)

The other question with list #2 would be, should i drop down to one bridge, change the dismembers to victim of night and add 2 smallpox for the waste not interaction?

*Thanks for the feed back*

-3 bridge, +1 votn, +2 spox. I like dismember and in my play group votn would not get much use. What about bile blight? I don't think that hero's downfall is needed.

Bridge is actually an all star in this deck, I won't go less than 3.

I had Bile Blight in for a while but I just always found I would rather have victim.

-1 Bridge
-1 Wrench mind
-1 Dismember

+2 small pox
+1 victim

(i won't be changing the main decks at the moment as I would like to see if more people have ideas etc. first.)

(Oops I forgot to add the two ghost quarters into the 2nd list( thats why it looks like the urborgs arent needed)

Our worst match ups as 8-rack are R/G tron and Affinity. This is why I added the Ghost Quarters, they deal with nexus, tron lands etc. Also Small pox can be a pretty big beating for Affinity depending on their hand.
