How about Thran Lens? Basically removes the Black considerations of Fear. It's not coded yet, but I think it can be.Sloth wrote:Mmh, i'm not concerned about power level, but synergy. I can't think of a way to make a creature with fear more powerful than in a random deck. Facing a mono black or mono brown opponent it's useless.

Yes, that would give the deck a reason to be full of fear creatures. Thanks Sol. I will code it up and update the deck.friarsol wrote:How about Thran Lens?

I am currently working on a WB swampwalk + Karma deck. We can use both decks.

If you use Karma you can't use Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth.Chris H. wrote:`Sloth wrote:Yes, that would give the deck a reason to be full of fear creatures. Thanks Sol. I will code it up and update the deck.

Yeah, I know.
But we do have:
Evil Presence
Contaminated Ground
Tainted Well

There should be enough lands that generate black mana that are not also a swamp.

I think that I have finished my WB swampwalk + Karma deck. I was able to find enough sources of black mana and the deck does not contain any Swamp.
We have 10 auras to turn the human's lands into Swamp. This may seem like a lot but they can help to pump up the 4 Crusading Knight. Stern Judge, Karma and there is a handful of Swampwalkers that can be hard to handle.
With 10 auras and the two Karma I felt that I could afford to add 2 Celestial Ancient and 1 Mesa Enchantress.
Unfortunately, Multikicker is currently broken. The Quag Vampires will become more valuable once this is tracked down and fixed.

Which of the decks should become Data 3, the fear deck or the swampwalk deck?

I guess that we could make the swampwalk deck Data 3.
Once you have finished the fear deck we can use one of the unused icons that I have available:

I found another list that should be revamped: Scotty 2 - WBG Pestilence deck with Castle, Penumbra Kavu, Spider and Wurm but no pro black
There are only two copies of Pestilence and the AI will only use it if the next point of damage can kill more of the opponents creatures than yours. Nevinyrral's Disk has the same problems and Enlightened Tutor is mostly a wasted card.
The deck will practicaly never do what its supposed to. Has anyone ideas how to fix it or what to replace it with?
- | Open
- 3 Penumbra Spider
3 Eternal Witness
2 Swamp
2 Plains
3 Penumbra Wurm
2 Nevinyrral's Disk
3 Penumbra Bobcat
3 Caller of the Claw
2 Castle
3 Darksteel Ingot
2 Harmonize
1 Enlightened Tutor
3 Penumbra Kavu
2 Guiltfeeder
2 Forest
4 Scrubland
4 Bayou
1 Marble Diamond
1 Charcoal Diamond
3 Gravedigger
4 Life Burst
2 Pestilence
4 Savannah
1 Moss Diamond
