So another "slapped together" idea I had to combine exalted and infect. Am I crossing the streams here, or am I mixing chocolate and peanut butter?

Edit: I was thinking of a sub-cascade 'theme' to use {Ardent Plea} and {Shardless Agent} to fetch my {Blighted Agent} or other infectious critters.  But how can you NOT auto-include {Qasali Pridemage} or {Noble Hierarch} in this deck.  Although frankly I'd be happy hitting any of those on a cascade trip.  :)

I like this deck quite a bit. I tried doing yhe same thing except with Soulbound instead of exalted. Other things backing infect up seems pretty cool to me!

I'm trying to figure out the right balance of infect strikers and exalted support.  I think I need more of the latter.

I would drop the {Lost Leonin}s for 1 more {Blight Mamba} and 1 more {Rafiq of the Many}

I've only got the one Rafiq. 😢

As I'm building, it's moving in a whole new direction. I may ditch the infect entirely (my Agents are in another {Wild Defiance} deck). Im now thinking of {Invisible Stalker} instead...  Decisions, decisions...

I'd reccomend you proxy a black lorus into here. This is vintage. It's allowed. You also want tO kill on T3

Thanks for the ideas!  However, I don't proxy.  I play what I got and that's it.  If there's a card I'm thinking of adding but don't own, it'll be in the sideboard.

Plus, this is for multiplayer, so it's unlikely that i'll be killing 6 opponents by t3 with this deck  ;)

Bj are there ANY combos that let you do that?

My BloodCrank deck could kill any number of players except the first two.  And then, if they lost one point of life after that they were dead.  Had to go first and have a "kung fu grip".

Pretty cool.
If it can win so quickly then why is it not a legacy deck?

'Cause it only works if you have multiple opponents to get counters on the {Bloodchief's Ascension}.

The idea is to hit T1: {Swamp}, {Dark Ritual} x2, {Ebony Owl Netsuke}, {Bloodchief Ascension}, {Mindcrank} (Pretty much a Royal flush in poker).

Each player takes the damage because they have 7 cards, and by the third person, the Ascension is activate and the Crank+Ascension kills every player after.

The ONE time I had a god-hand, I was the last to play and EVERYONE else played a land and two spells!  T_T
