Piper of Doom
Posted: 03 Jun 2010, 13:24
I have to admit there's a few cheap tricks with older cards in here, but it's been holding its own against a lot of decks I've played it against. I'm sure it needs to be streamlined, but I thought I'd at least post the concept.
37 Creatures
-----------------
2 Sapling of Colfenor
2 Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
2 Artisan of Kozilek
3 Urborg Elf
2 Kodama of the North Tree
4 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
2 Utopia Tree
2 Ant Queen
4 Ulamog's Crusher
2 Werebear
3 Vine Trellis
4 Elvish Piper
3 Sakura-Tribe Elder
2 Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
51 Spells
--------------
4 Reanimate
4 Animate Dead
4 Putrefy
4 Defense of the Heart
4 Buried Alive
4 Maelstrom Pulse
4 Entomb
3 Gaea's Cradle
4 Demonic Tutor
4 Zombify
4 Sylvan Tutor
4 Artifact Equipment
----------------
4 Lightning Greaves
38 Land
----------------
17 Swamp
16 Forest
5 Golgari Rot Farm
Basically, it uses the obvious combo with Elvish Piper and the Eldrazi monsters, but it also takes advantage of Defense of The Heart and Entomb/Buried Alive with resurrect cards that don't have a casting cost to put creatures back onto the battlefield.
Sidenote: Everytime I bring out two Kozilek Butcher of Truths, they discard. Is that a function or a bug? I thought having two different versions of a Planeswalker discard was a bug until I read further.
