Uktabi Kong or something similar would be awesome, but I doubt that everyone would want to see the Un-Cards added to forge.
I will add this deck as Tarzan 2 and I will give it a good tone down and get back with a tier 1 variant.

OK, I weakened the new Tarzan 2 deck and here is a possible Tarzan 1 deck. There are about 4 less apes and there are a number of one shot type spells.
The deck looks somewhat unfocused but it still is for the most part an ape tribal deck.

Another deck I want to change is Han Solo 3 (WG enchantments deck with Sigil of the Empty Throne) which has the same theme as Endora 3 but is less focused. My proposal is to make it an WU Enchanted Evening deck. Any objections or suggestions?

I think that Gando made one of those decks and I made the other. Back in those days we did not have a lot of cards to choose from.
Here is a list of cards to consider for the WU Enchanted Evening deck:

Hey, Remember when we added Soulless One to Buffy 2?
Soulless One is not in forge. I knew that there was a reason that I did not include it the first time.
That may be a hard one to add because it counts both Zombies in play and in the graveyard.
If it can not be added should that be replaced with Grave Defiler?

I will fix it.

James Bond 1-3 could have a more focused Sliver theme, now that we have almost all of them. Anyone willing to update them?
I will try to update King Edward (Elementals).

I'll take a crack at it... I love Slivers. I've got an idea that doesn't include a huge amount of cards.Sloth wrote:James Bond 1-3 could have a more focused Sliver theme, now that we have almost all of them. Anyone willing to update them?

Edit: The trick is keeping it at 60 cards... I have an easy version, but the trick is figuring out what to substitute in and out for medium and hard versions. I know Sliver Legion will be involved in hard. Shadow Sliver and Shifting Sliver made it into medium and hard

My plan was to stick to the colors of James Bond 1-3 to have a tight mana base. At least not all colors should be used to distinguish it from Cyclops 2 and 3.

D'oh... I've been trying to keep it to three colors, but the Essence Sliver kind of snuck in. I wanted the Legion in the Hard version as a bomb. I was thinking RUG, mainly for Heart Sliver, though I could be persuaded to change it to WUG. I'm thinking of the following changes:
Easy:
Mnemonic Sliver for Heart Sliver
Victual Sliver for Spined Sliver
Talon Sliver for Fury Sliver
Plated Sliver for Darksteel Ingot
Medium:
Sinew Sliver for Heart Sliver
Talon Sliver for Fury Sliver
Synchronus Sliver for Darksteel Ingot
Hard:
Sinew Sliver for Heart Sliver
Talon Sliver for Fury Sliver.
Easy & Medium
Tundra for Arcane Sanctum
Savannah for Jungle Shrine
Hallowed Fountain for Crumbling Necropolis
Temple Garden for Savage Lands
Easy:
Mnemonic Sliver for Heart Sliver
Victual Sliver for Spined Sliver
Talon Sliver for Fury Sliver

Medium:

Synchronus Sliver for Darksteel Ingot
Hard:
Sinew Sliver for Heart Sliver
Talon Sliver for Fury Sliver.

I would say WUG (or WRG) could be more powerful, because multiple copies of Sinew Sliver, Plated Sliver, Sidewinder Sliver and Muscle Sliver are not redundant.timmermac wrote:D'oh...

- Try to reduce the number of copies of slivers without stacking abilities.
- Shadow Sliver is not good enough in the hands of the AI for a hard deck.
- A Fetch/Dual landbase would make the hard deck faster and more consistent.
