Deck Description

Chains of Mephistopheles is a stand-in for Waste Not, because I thought that would be wonderfully dreadful in Winter Void. Even if just for kicks and giggles.

It has been too long, much too long since I have tinkered.

:D

Welcome back my friend! Waste Not does sound funny for WinterVoid, although truth be told Chains isn't exactly a slouch haha

Oh indeed, Chains in anything is far from slouching, but it almost feels redundant in Winter Void to me sometimes. I think Orzhov Enlightened Tutor based toolboxes are where Chains gets to really shine its brightest.

Waste Not however utilizes an inevitability, and turns it into a resource. I simply love that idea! It's good to be back :D

Exactly. It just makes the opponent go from not being able to do anything to REALLY not being able to do anything haha. I plan to use WN for something in the future, maybe even an EDH or two. Speaking of EDH, have you seen any of the new generals they're making for the second "Commander goodstuffs" set? Or any of the 13 new ones from Theros? Exciting things for EDH lovers methinks.

Ooooooh, it'll be vicious in EDH. I've only seen the Zombie so far, but if it's appropriate to the tone of the rest of the goodies I'm going to enjoy it same as before. The Commander I'm planning on using is Thassa though, she's just too freaking cool. Scry 1 every upkeep? Yes, very yes! That makes her worth it even if I don't have Devotion.

The fact that it's on your upkeep is what makes it so smexy. And if you mean the grixis colored zombie guy (Nekusar, the Mindrazer) yeah he's crazy. I am most certainly taking my reverse-mill deck "Choke" and turning that idea into an EDH with him at the helm. Some of the others are crazy too. A new esper general that Arty is a little too happy about. It's a big giant named Oloro, Ageless Ascetic that basically lets you bleed everyone out while drawing cards and gaining life.

Gotta say man, glad you're back. Between Arty busy with clients all the time and Wumps being neck-deep in wedding crap...Not too many people to talk to about the finer things in magic. Such as crushing an opponent with a mountain of mana burden as seen in this deck of yours =P

If it was any other time it'd feel lackluster, but it being in the upkeep just really makes it worth the three mana. Card filtering is a powerful tool in pretty much anything, but in blue it can mean the difference between playing land pass, and playing Snap Caster for Inquisition of Kozilek.

And Nekusar is the one I was talking about, it's Underworld Dreams on a stick! Oloro however... That's so dirty I need to get it lol.

I can dig it. My usual counterpart for the darker side of magic is getting married too, and our extractor is working 90 hour weeks... I've been on backlog for this kind of thing.
