Title: Waste Not
Post by: Jlamb5 on September 23, 2014, 11:29:40 AM
Deck: Waste Not.dec

Counts : 60 main

Creatures:16
4 {Bloodsoaked Champion}
4 {Brain Maggot}
4 {Mardu Skullhunter}
4 {Herald of Torment}

Spells:22
3 {Despise}
4 {Thought seize}
4 {Waste Not}
4 {Hero's Downfall}
3 {Mind Rot}
2 {Tormented Thoughts}
2 {Liliana Vess}

Lands:22
4 {Bloodstained Mire}
4 {Polluted Delta}
14 {Swamp}

Looking for some insight....I just threw it together with cards that I thought synergized well with a waste not discard plan.  Haven't put a board together yet.

What's the purpose of the bloodstained mire and the other if all you run is swamps? Maybe 2 Nykthos?

And also master of feasts would be better than herald of torment that way your opponent always has a card to discard

I was talking with someone and realiZed that it's much better. And that it works with tormented thoughts better too.

About the fetches. Mostly just to pull lands out so that I can hit action more often. No reason not to really, if you have them. Nykthos won't help because I won't really have an x spell to cast or any need for the extra black.

I will probably be dropping liliana to 1 also.

I'm thinking bout running something similar to this and adding in accursed spirit that way you can swing unblock able, mardu skull hunter, then tormented thoughts the accursed spirit. Be nice

I'm okay running the {blood soaked champion} into something if I can play the mardu guy and have a discard. I want to use the tormented thoughts on something like the {master of the feasts}

Makes sense hope you don't get mad but I put up a deck right now that I put together with your core idea for it 😁😁😁

I'm definitely not mad! That's great! Hopefully one or the other works and we can figure something out that works better!

Although this would be sweet ... A discard deck SHOULD NOT run a Master lol that defeats the whole purpose

Well, if you feed them a card, discard it, then discard their hand with tormented thoughts
Could combo really well

Lol I've read your posts other places and you have mad hate for the card lmao it does serve a purpose tho, with Waste not you want the other player to have at least a card to actually get the 2/2 zombies and whatever so it actually serves a very fine purpose for this deck, and regardless you'll most likely have them only draw once as you will be sacking him your next turn with tormented thoughts lol

Lol yep :P I've played against Master 3x before lol (I play control) and I've never been hit by him lol but the synergy there is nice but not good enough to justify IMO :P but Playtest and if he works I'm wrong lol (I'm often wrong haha)
