Title: Red/blue fun
Post by: Chipper89 on October 02, 2013, 01:41:58 AM
I'm looking into building a red/blue deck for fun. What combos would be fun? Something to irritate my friends? =]

I think every time you put a {Guttersnipe} on the battlefield, your opponent(s) are like, "ughhhh..."

And no one likes getting {Wild Ricochet}'d

I also like {Meletis Charlatan} when I have the mana for his ability

You can do some pretty dumb stuff with {mind over matter}. For example, toss out a {temple bell} and have a {kozelek, butcher of truth}, {emrakul, the eons torn}, or {ulumog, the infinite gyre} somewhere in your deck :)

{mind over matter} + {Arcanis, the omnipotent}

{niv-mizzet the fire mind}

I'm only just now reading the flavor on this... Is it supposed to be funny gibberish because he's supposed to be so smart or is that a more complex joke because it actually means something?

Turn it sideways, it spells out Niv Mizzet
