I've asked all "half-deckers" to come up with some advice on how to build a halfdeck.Maybe you want to participate in the link I've made for that purpose?http://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/guide-how-to-build-a-halfdeck/

I'll be adding you to our primer in a minute!http://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/halfdeck-primer/Go there to see the other contributors to the halfdeck concept.I think the best thing you can do now is search among the decks, and if any halfs seem to have an interresting connection with your own, write about it so we can get a little cooperation :D
There's a white cyclecard that can produce infinite 1/1's. Decree of justice. cannot be countered :DSeems like I caught you before you are finished with the decks though :D
Heh! I guess you didn't look hard enough :DThere are 1865 extra cards to go through in your extended modern format!Out of these cards I only made it to the beginning of "F" but I've already found 10 cards that I would involve in mill:ambassador llaquatus, balshan beguiler, bamboozle, book burning, brain freeze, deep analysis, do or die, dreamborn muse, extract and false memories.Llaquatus is not my thing but merfolk mill is viable.balshan beguiler is not my thing too, but it could be used.bamboozle is stretchy at best.book burnings a wild ace.deep analysis is a must for mesmeric orb mill-variants!do or die is pretty good removal for milldecks like mine!dreamborn muse has potential.extract would make mill hype throughout modern. So nuts!!!False memories allows for a more flashback based type of milldeck!I begin to understand why wotc set the start of the "modern" format at mirrodin to avoid a combo-based format, which isn't very "modern" but rather a regression, so I understand your curiosity about what would have happened if they had lovered the bar!The number of spells that makes combo explode in your format are numerous, even down to the sackable duals that gives 2 mana in a set combination which allows for a turn 3 storm combo with chromatic star and the like. There are so many combo-pieces in these expanding sets that you will have to ban half of it :D
Well, if I was to participate in such a tournament, I would probably play mill there as well, so think of what extra cards I could use in it and work from there, by now you should know my preferrences :D Appart from that, I think the first thing people try to build is a version of reanimate, so if the format have any spells superior to modern they will be used in creating a reanimate-deck!
Tell me what results you get!
Add priest and urabrask and giantbaiting!When bloodbraid elf was legal I played something with boggart ramgang which might fit into your deck as well!
I've been wondering! With stuff like wild cantor, burning tree emissary and priest of urabrask... why haven't any modernplayers though of playing with giant-baiting?I think it would fit your superhostile collection very much!
Sorry about the spam :D I'm making a guide on how to build halfdecks!Go take a look and give me as much input as you have made yourself so far!One topic that I need a lot of input on is how to test a halfdeck!!! http://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/guide-how-to-build-a-halfdeck/

Whoa! That's ambitious! I mean, noone should be able to predict the meta-game for a non-existant format :DSo it's a personal pet experiment! I like that!
I've added you and your deck to our "primer": http://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/halfdeck-primer/For the bounce/life deck I think the verdict is too destructive, as you don't want your own creatures sent to the grave. In a stretch I could see terminus used instead as you can get the creatures back with it
That's just bad luck!I know someone is trying to build a stormdeck based on slithermuse! Maybe you two could crack it together!He needs some help on the basics of storm though, but he might be able to think more out of the box?!He's also part of the halfdeck concept!http://www.mtgvault.com/mugenkira/decks/ad-nauseum-muse/
What exactly is the purpose? Is this a new format, or some local event?if new stuff is allowed try to see if you can salvage something from this:http://www.mtgtop8.com/event?e=5813&d=233774Theres some old stuff in there as well but it might not work in your setup, but it's worth a look!
I've assembled a page where I keep track of people building halfdecks!Study some of the work there, then make your own addition :Dhttp://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/halfdeck-primer/
I once had a U/G deck based on sigil of sleep, and it's a long story, but here's a link to the cards I went through in designing it. You may want to focus on the blue cards :D http://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/silhana-project20072013/
