Deck Description

It's a removal-heavy deck to clear the way for your creatures.

How to Play

Clear the board of your opponent's early threats with your many removal spells. Chakram Slinger is a source of repeatable burn, and the treasures from Kalain and the merchant help with mana to keep up the pressure.

Oh, and Chakram Retriever is a good boy.

Deck discussion for Erik

Don't loose eyes on the goal :)
I've seen you improve your descriptions lately :)

Do you plan to add more venture to the deck over time, or is fates reversal just a filler for a better revival card
(Maybe kolaghan's command?)

Thank you :)

Fate Reversal is just a bit of filler. I often know what I'm looking for (revival), but rarely do I know the optimal choice given my deckbuilding restrictions. I think swapping it out is a good idea. What do you think of Echoing Return?

Echoing Return is totally badass in a deck with 4 of each creature like your design.

Here are some alternatives if your deck changes nature or you build something else.

Aid the Fallen (if you decide to include a planeswalker)
Cemetery Recruitment (if you can find a decent zombie)
Corpse Churn (if selfmill becomes relevant)
Disturbing Plot (might be interesting in your current build)
Grim Discovery (maybe sb against land destruction)
Macabre Waltz (if you are the type of player who can keep land in hand)

And a turn down the memory lane...
No Rest for the Wicked
Good against sweeper decks but a bit oldschool.

Thanx for reminding me about echoing return.
First time I saw it, I thought "wow that's gotta be broken"
Then I forgot about it...
But now that you brought it up, I realized which deck to put it in...
A deck with Rat Colony :)

If my play group ran more sweepers, I'd be inclined to sideboard in No Rest for the Wicked. As it stands, it's all spot removal, but if that changes No Rest is definitely going in.

Disturbing Plot is a good catch. I should've remembered it, as often as I drafted Lorwyn block. I'll try out both it and Echoing Return to see which runs better in the deck.
