Title: Graveyard Treasures & Halloween Special
Post by: LadyGrixis on October 05, 2013, 10:16:17 AM
I finally made the two that I've been working on! I've done some play testing with the Halloween deck and it does well, but I haven't worked with the Graveyard one yet. They both make me so happy! Let me know what you think :) I've put the links below:

Try adding {must utter hydra} and {ordeal of Erebos}. The black ordeal is actually really good with those cards. I'm currently working on a deck list with it.

{Mistcutter Hydra}?

The only problem is, I won't get any utility out of Scavenging a hydra since most of them only trigger a power/toughness upon entering the battlefield. And the {Ordeal of Erebos} isn't really much additional help, since my goal isn't to mill my opponent. I've got other spells like {Forced Adaptation} and Scavange to add +1/+1 counters.

The ordeal gets rid of card advantage not mills them. Also  {Desecration Demon} +  {Varolz, the Scar-Striped} are bffs. 4 mana +6/+6 scavage? Seems legit.

{ordeal of Erebos} is a hand control card. It really favors decks that can durdle for a few extra turns. If I swing on turn 3 with a Lotleth troll that I can immediately ordeal, I could drastically reduce my opponent's ability to deal with any future threats.
