Here's a deck I put together to try to use some Myr interactions. Plus, it has the potential to create infinate mana with two {Myr Galvanizer}s and at least two mana from Myr. From there it's either infinate direct damage from {Goblin Cannon}, infinate Myr tokens from the {Myr Matrix}, the craziness of {Staff of Domination}, or my favorite casting {Spawnsire of Ulamog} followed by activating his third ability and putting every Eldrazi I own onto he table. Surprise!

I love both those tribes! I love Myr decks and Eldrazi decks, I don't have some of the older Myr cards, but would love to have a dig with this deck! ðŸ'

I dIdnt get very many good Eldrazi in any boosters. I even missed the prerelease so I didn't even get the preview card either.

Would you believe I've never had the chance to go to one myself?! And I rarely net deck, so I'm in the same boat.⛵

Net deck? ???
Title: Re: Myr Mortals

Net deck: to purchase specific single cards to make an ideal deck.
😁

OIC. I'm a collector. I always get at least a Fatpack. After that, I buy a couple of boosters here and there.
Title: Re: Myr Mortals
Post by: Spikepit on November 20, 2011, 01:48:46 AM
Same. I buy boxes of boosters and a few extra boosters here and there. If I don't get certain cards then the Fates have decreed it so. 😉
Title: Re: Myr Mortals
Post by: BlackJester on November 20, 2011, 02:21:55 AM
Gotcha. some of my old play group had a rule that if you open four or more of a rare in booster packs, the Fates have decreed that you must build a deck around that card.

I drew my forth {Sulfur Falls} so I built a red, white, and blue deck.  I had 4 {Lightning Angels} and always wanted to build a deck around them.  I also drew 2 {Geist of Saint Traft} so they also encouraged the build.

Wow!  We've really deviated from the topic: this deck.

Lightning angels rock!  A RWU angel deck sounds neat.

Very cool deck. Myr and Eldrazi are the most interesting (creatures/machines/gods) out of the rest, IMO. I play almost half the time with my Eldrazi deck but had given up on my Myr deck. The reason being: I didn't know half of the Myr you talked about even existed. Sick to the tenth. I cannot wait to begin putting this together.

Thank you!  I think the mana accel of the myr, and early chumps go well with Eldrazi.  I have yet to hit the {Spawnsire of Ulamog}.  But then, I haven't had a chance to play this deck much.  :'(

Let me know how it goes for you.

{metalworker} not a myr, but who doesn't enjoy that retro robot artwork.

I love that card, but it makes me feel dirty playing it.  That thing is sooo busted.

😢  Sadly, no. After all the boosters, not a single Karn. And no one I know has one they are willing to trade.

I'm using him in another deck. Love The card, but I'm not sure what role he'd play in this deck. ???

Did you check out UntappedGames? Low low prices.

I've got a few extras of that guy I'd be willing to part with. I'm still yet to put together a solid Needed/Trade Binder, but I'm sure we could work something out? I am actually heading to Ca- I mean, where your secret lair is in January. 😁

:o (Emoji needs a good surprise face. 😳😱😨 these ones suck.)

Maybe some arrangements could be made. You can sift through my traders already, though it's not easy.

At least it'll be "standardized".

This mana base is almost exactly what I had for my eldrazi deck! Except I took out a few of the urza lands for 4 {Vesuva}. The mana gets pretty crazy pretty fast. Looks like a really fun deck, I've never tried myr, so I'd be really interested in seeing how this does.
Title: Re: Myr Mortals
Post by: BlackJester on July 14, 2012, 12:17:19 PM
This wasn't a very strong build, I confess. Needed more card drawing and other functionality. I took a couple of FFA games with it, but I never hit the Ulamog infinite mana combo. 😭

Post by: JaCe BeLeReN on July 14, 2012, 08:50:38 PM
What if someone hits you with a T1 {Extract}?
Title: Re: Myr Mortals
Post by: BlackJester on July 14, 2012, 11:52:39 PM
How would they know what I'm playing by T1? ???

Remember, I play FFA casual. Also, I know my guys' car pools. I doubt any of them would run it.

Besides, the deck can do serious work with other tools like Battlesphere.

Post by: Fenster on July 27, 2012, 06:34:29 AM
If you run with 4 spawnsire some {quicksilver amulet} and atleast 2 {Training grounds} you can pop an infinite mana combo straight from the spawnsire. Relativly early too if you're lucky.
Title: Re: Myr Mortals
Post by: BlackJester on July 27, 2012, 03:23:02 PM
True, true.  That wasn't the intention of the deck, just a goofy thing to do with infinite colorless mana rather than just {Goblin Cannon}.

Post by: Younghawk on November 20, 2015, 01:15:39 AM
Well I guess this deck would run better then myr tribal I built... Had all the colored Myrs plus 4 blinkmoth urns a staff of domination 3 of the matrix a soliva digger two beacon of immortality a play set of urza lands plus 4 temples of the false god 2 lattice memnarch doubling cube and 2 clock of omens and a dark steel forge. This was built during the mirrordin block (the first one) and my play group told me I couldn't run anymore for some reason. Most of the time the deck took off on turn 3 with turn 4 being the end of a 12 person game.
