This deck is actually pretty terrible, because it has no overarching strategy, uses all five colors, and most importantly, is made up of spare cards rather than the best stuff available for a given purpose. As such, it doesn't win. Ever. On the flipside, it's fun to play sometimes. It gives me a place to use lots of cards that always seemed fun to me, but that I didn't have a good place for. Almost every non-land permanent in the deck is Legendary, and the only cards of which I use more than one are basic lands. This could probably be expanded into a Highlander-format deck, but since nobody among us else has decks built for that format I don't really see the point. I used to have a Honden of Night's Reach and a Honden of Life's Web in the deck as well, but I removed them just now while I was posting the deck. While the deck has no overarching strategy whatsoever due to its nature, I realized that I was always unhappy to draw one of those enchantments instead of a creature or land-fetching spell, so I decided to cut them. The deck sits at 79 cards, but deck size doesn't matter because again, there's no strategy to this deck. As long as the land total is proportional to the overall deck size, I feel that the deck can swell up as big as it wants without causing much of a problem. |

Things I learned about card image links while trying to post this deck:
1. Leave out the commas, because they mess up the URL.
2. Funny characters, like û in Lim-Dûl, need to be replaced by their normal letter equivalent in the URL.
3. Whether a hyphen will or will not mess up the URL is inconsistent. Sakura-Tribe Elder works fine with a hyphen, Lim-Dûl the Necromancer must be written as Lim_Dul_The_Necromancer to link properly.
4. Linking that many card names in a row is a pain in the ass.

Maybe. I'm reluctant to tie up mana for upkeep, and I'm not going to use Eon Hubs in the deck so there's really no getting around it otherwise. I've noticed that, despite the random assortment of crap in this deck, there are a few cards I draw almost every time I play the deck. General Jarkeld almost always hits play, Tsabo Tavoc is also pretty common. I almost always draw Ihsan's Shade, but I never have enough black mana to play him. Braids, Cabal Minion is pretty common as well. |

That's because by whatever random chance, he'll be playing one of the couple decks of his which are totally fucked over by skipping his upkeep, and he'll have nothing to do but forfeit instead of dragging it out.
Besides, I want to keep with my 1 per deck theme, even for non-legendary stuff. So the most I'd have is one, which really isn't work bothering about.

Yeah, I know.
Hey, when did swear words get uncensored? I totally expected my last post to end up as either "****ed over" or "had sex with over" or something like that.

Eh, not really important anyway. Since it's just us on these boards now, there's really no need for censorship. It's not like we have annoying trolls and morons here anymore, like a couple of the more annoying people back when the board was new.
