Only three mill-decks have won in modern.

Perhaps the newest design may be of help to you.
(they all share 4 cards)

add mesmeric orb!

Those who mill in modern uses it!

And you can support increasing confusion with mesmeric orb!

Me too! It has mill which I love, it has noxious revival which I adore, and it's sort of my namesake!
Cool setup!

Pro decks aren't cheap :D

That will be an even bigger advantage!
They know you have it, and will fear the day you use it.
They will be nervous wrecks in 10 years!

Ah, but evolution is not about size! The most actively evolving organisms on earth are bacteria. They can actually cut and paste other bacterial dna onto themselves!!! That's like ripping an arm of a gorilla and placing it on your head to be able to fight AND eat at the same time.

And evolution does not take time. It takes only 10 generations to establish a new mutation, so speed depends on the species. Bacterial evolution is sooo fast that scientists are still struggling to understand how they snip and snap these parts of each others and still work functionally!

Evolution is about weirdness and dead ends!
Is fun!!!

also add crawling filth

try sneaking it into something like this!

Not as good as your other decks usually are, but theres a small chance that when you play this your usual opponents will lose against the unique never seen surprise element that YOU are playing it!

alackofreason:
Have you tried to build a deck with evolution in it, or maybe a flavortext storyline?

alackofreason:
That's just pure art!

I can suggest helm of awakening, and the oldest card in the theme chaos orb (How could you miss that!!!)

But why not try to make some hybrids of your own work?

Take one half from the aquarium and half of the throw-up, mix them together and you got "aquarium throwup"
(Sickening shoal sort of binds these two halves together!)

A small group of players are trying to build half decks! (aka 30 card decks)
The general idea is to build a deckhalf with a theme so solid that it fits almost any other halfdeck you could think of throwing it into.
But most cannot embrace the full concept of it all, and chose to build a manabase fitting their own themes!
I've made it my own task to split up clasical legacy-decks in two halves, and it's sort of an artform to split them in a way so that they are equally powerfull.

We could need some more "artistery" to bring the concept some "designer beauty"

Here's the concept primer:

I've had the same thoughts about building "master" or "primer" pages, but in the end I think not enough people in here would recognize either the players or the decktypes (Well a few would) and it ends up taking too much space in your deckcollection!

The idea of slithermuse in "ant" is good.
But I think it's best to copy one of the more timeless designs, then add 1 muse at a time to see if they work.
memnite and ornithopter should probably go?

I kinda got inspired to name it "the dark" because it has 2 set of cards with "dark" in their name.
:D

Well try to spread it and it will become even greater!
For the idea to really work we will need a lot of different designers with very different approaches to the concept!

It's meant to grow beyond the control of a single individual, so once I lose the grasp on registering new persons/decks, there should be enough designers to let the concept live it's own life!

Sort of like a huge mental parasite...

Ill name the halves "rock" and "the dark" unless you have other suggestions :D

I can really recommend noxious revival with this.
Remove surgical extraction or extirpate to put noxious revival in.
It can bring back snappy which can bring back something else.
It can bring back ghostquarter so you land-d them.
You can bring back archive trap.
noxiuous rival is good with this :D

Welcome among us!

I like the split :D

I've added a "primer" where I will try to outline the concept better in one part, and list all members and decks in the other.
That way you can just look at the primer once in a while, and see who's new and what new halfdecks have been made!
(And I won't have to pop up constantly...Like a troll in a box)
