Your favourite deck ideas - just for fun
by Althuna » 09 Jan 2012, 14:48
What are some of your favourite fun deck ideas to play? I prefer fun decks over powerful ones but I don't have many ideas. Here are a few that I do have:
1) Ultimatums deck: It is prismatic and it uses 4 Violent Ultimatum and 4 Cruel Ultimatum, and it also bounces them back with Gaea's Blessing. You can also use Chandra Ablaze to play all of them from your graveyard for a big finish! And it can even use Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker. It also has Obelisk of Alara which offers nice variety because the deck has all colours. The most fun I get from this deck is making it survive long enough to start playing the ultimatums. Prismatic can be a bit tricky at the start, and I restrict myself from using some very powerful cards like black lotus etc..
2) Bouncey deck: This deck uses creatures with powerful come in to play abilities like Woodfall Primus, Mulldrifter, and Mystic Snake, and then it bounces them a lot! It uses obvious bounce cards like Momentary Blink (which you can play from your GY after using it, so that is 8 bounces total), but it also uses Journey to Nowhere and Oblivion Ring on my own creatures, and then I use Back to Nature to bring them all back again. Although it lacks Galepowder Mage and Flickerwisp in Manalink which makes it even better.
They are fun
But a bit too powerful sometimes. You all got any ideas?

I made a new one which is pretty fun! The whole deck is about Spikeshot Elder. Uses some tutors to make sure I get one fast. And then I attach Basilisk Collar and Blade of the Bloodchief So it gets stronger and stronger and eventually it is huge. And I put Awakening Zone in there which work as blockers but I can also sacrifice them and the Blade of the Bloodchief makes the Spikeshot Elder go huge. And if the Elders get killed, I just use Elixir of Immortality to shuffle them back. It's a bit basic, but it's fun.

Made another new deck and this one is my most fun! It is prismatic but it uses Prismatic Omen to help you achieve that without having to have all the lands. It's fun because it's almost like a singleton deck, having lots of different cards so you can deal with any problem. If they have lots of creatures then you have Wrath of God. If they have lots of enchants then you have Back to Nature. If they try to burn you down, you have lots of life gain. And then to win you can use the ultimatum cards and also Last Stand. It has a lot of draw cards to make sure you keep getting something you need. I looove the variety! I think it's about 90 cards instead of the usual 60, so it requires more land, but it still works great. I rarely lose!

Got another fun deck It's not exactly what I had in mind when I made this thread (I prefer decks with lots of variety and lots of spells), but this deck is just so "MWAHAHA!!" It's a Grave Pact deck, and if you come up against a creature based opponent (and most are), you will wipe the floor with them!
Here's the card list I'm using for now:
.10389 4 Awakening Zone
.1050 4 Grave Pact
.3298 2 Sadistic Glee
.11129 3 Altar's Reap
.6789 1 Beacon of Creation
.10972 1 Beast Within
.10020 2 Beastmaster Ascension
.409 4 Desert Twister
.7600 2 Doubling Season
.9647 3 Mycoloth
.11533 4 Elixir of Immortality
.91 9 Forest
.239 9 Swamp
.12 4 Bayou
.8830 3 Liliana Vess
.1096 3 Naturalize
.5565 4 Chainer's Edict
It's so powerful because once you get the Grave Pact out with Awakening Zone, they are in so much trouble... Doubling Season is just for fun, it doubles the Awakening Zone tokens (and on the Mycoloth) but it's also because it doubles the tokens you get when you first play the Planeswalker.
p.s. It could use some tweaking for playing against very fast decks. Maybe more tutor cards and a damnation.

Anyone got any ideas of fun (but not too powerful) decks to play now that we have more new cards?
I made one obvious one with Wall of Reverence + Ageless Entity which is crazy
Especially if you have a few of the Walls out. You can quickly have a creature which is a 1000000000000/1000000000000 
You can also put lightning greaves on it to protect it, and you can even use Sanguine Bond so that with just one turn with the Wall of Reverence, you kill your opponent.
Also Increasing Savagery + Primordial Hydra make for some fun..
But anyway... that is too powerful to be fun. What other decks could we make?
I thought about making a Predator Ooze deck, see how big you can make it and then hopefully win. You could even use Heckling Fiends to make stuff attack, then block with the Predator Ooze, and have Gideon's Avenger getting bigger and bigger. And maybe have Righteousness or a Royal Assassin to help kill stuff. But I need better ideas :/
p.s. My favorite deck so far uses Birthing Pod, and keeps bringing out bigger and bigger creatures until you have something huge
p.p.s Tragic Slip is really nice!

A 282-card, 200 unique (the limit, sadly) pile of the most fun cards in manalink. No two games are the same. It's not the most powerful or consistent but it's really interesting.
