The brutal and protean natures of Iso-Pox seems to have many online draw similarities to Unicron, and I can kind of see what they mean :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4c-M4MP0GE " For a time, I considered sparing your wretched little planet, Cybertron. But now, you shall witness... its DISMEMBERMENT. "

Only thing I can think of to suggest at the moment is the SB. I honesty can't think of any scenario in which you'll need to swap in all 3 Needles. I would cut down to 2 at most. In its place are obviously a myriad of choices, but one I tampered with a little recently was Thalia. Her tax ability plays very well with the mana burden and denial that comes with the Iso-Pox package. Also Terminus can be devastating to a deck already suffering the effects of mana denial. I keep looking at the land base and I know it's different from mine but I have no idea what you changed. It's maddening =[ I will say that the decision to run full small versus "big" Pox is interesting...Especially with 2 Pox in the SB to allow you to mediate the degree and timing of the pressure, as well as the nature of it, at will. Oh, and actually, one other thing I feel I'm obligated to mention is Disk. Ever since I added the Disk into "The Idea" I haven't taken it out. I probably have more to say, but it's 4:30 in the morning and I'm gonna go pass out instead... P.S. love the deck's name =]

Yeah, Pithing Needle at three was mostly an experiment, but I have to agree with you. It's not really worth it. :/ Thalia is an interesting choice, as is Terminus, but in all honesty the only one of those two I can see benefiting my design is Thalia. More mana burden to go alongside the denial is always a powerful move, it's what makes Stax work so well. Terminus, while having a potentially insane casting cost, just adds more creature control, without the benefit of hitting everything like the poxes. I'm basically running my Rip the Crypt land base, but I replaced one copy of Undiscovered Paradise with Tabernacle. After all the testing I've done with Undiscovered Paradise, I've found it works most fluidly at three, so that left me with a flex slot. Right now it's Tabernacle, but a few times it has become part of the Thopter package. The setup I'm using for the poxes is really the main thing I've been tinkering with. It's been a bit of business, but by being able to dictate the amount, and nature of the poxes, I feel more in control. I can play a more traditional feeling control game one using the Smallpox plan, but if need be I can quite easily adjust. The Disk is something I've heard you sing nothing but praise for, but in my experience it's just overkill really. And while that's something that Iso-Seek deals in spades, at a certain point it becomes excessive. I think naming an Iso-Pox this is the most fitting other than Oh Death http://www.myfacewhen.net/view/22-aaaaaaaaaaay
I personally love Tabernacle with Iso-Pox, so no arguments there =] Also, I love the name "Oh Death" so much that I swapped out the deckbox labeled "The Idea" (that holds the updated deck of the same name) and put it into the deckbox labeled "Oh Death" Plus, this scene is just beautiful and terrifying =] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bL2qFuFLX8
For a while I actually didn't enjoy Tabernacle in Iso-Pox for the same reason as Terminus, but as the format fluctuates it's needed once more. I've been running into the hyper-aggressive trio more and more lately, despite the abundance of Abrupt Decay in the format. I can't say I blame you, I plan to buy this sleeve art for EVERY non-Extraction Pox build I use. http://www.myfacewhen.com/images/316 That scene is one of my favourites, but I honestly think Death is one of the more overrated non-regular characters. Lucifer, Leviathan, and Gabriel are so much more intriguing to me. Granted that Leviathan was a bit of a let down...
Well in nearly any fictional media, if there is a character that embodies/ is an incarnation of "Death", that character tends to be overrated almost inherently. Still, I have to say I was very happy with the show's portrayal of him. They could have made it very cheesy, but they went with a what looks like a creepy old bureaucrat...and it worked really well. Same goes with Lucifer. When I first saw the character I thought, "THIS is Lucifer?!" then later on I realized that...yeah, that's freakin Lucifer XD
True, I just find that, in Supernatural at least, he's like Jund. People just will NOT shut up about him half of the time. I really enjoyed how they portrayed him, but I could have done without the rants about him I got subjected to hearing. Lucifer is one of my favourite characters in Supernatural, it's quite how one would imagine such a being would be. I think him, and the Sandman version of Lucifer are amongst my all time top list for villains.
wow nice. wicked cool deck >:Dare you just using entomb as a tutor for bloodghast? thats the only card on im on the fence about
With Crucible he can use it as a tutor for any land he needs, such as Tabernacle if he's facing token shenanigans, for example. It can also put Raven's Crime in the 'yard for later use =]
This is very neat. It makes me wish i still had my B/W/G pox deck :[ Only suggestion i could make for this build would be to add a couple green spells. I think abrupt decay(on a stick lol), pernicious deed, and worm harvest could find there way here. Hell, maybe even a crop rotation or two, to grab that hard to find tabernacle.
