I will think up a name for these A.S.A.P.
Untill then...
So here is another cool idea I came up with. It is very fun but I do not know how competetive this would be (not very).
I wanted to make a deck around {Chalice of Life} it seems like a win condition if you can flip it but doing that is the problem.
Sooo... here we go...
Creatures-
4x {Armored Skaab}
4x {Shreeching Skaab}
4x {Ambush Viper}
4x {Splinterfright}
4x {Boneyard Worm}
Spells-
4x {Chalice of Life}
4x {Gnaw to the Bone}
4x {Archangel's Light}
2x {Arcane Mele}
2x {Feelings of Dread}
So the idea is to mill yourself, play {Chalice of Life}, play {Archangel's Light or {Gnaw to the Bone}, gain a bunch of life and kill them with the chalice. If you do not draw what you need you can alternately win with {Splinterfright}.
So let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Thorn
Looks fun but why post it here?
I'll let people work out their own land bases from now on.

??? Where else do I post this?
Casual decks?
Then post it in standard
So? It's still casual. Just because it's standard doesn't make it not casual. Lol.
Either way, it doesn't belong here.

Sorry, I know for a fact you guys aren't mods. I liked the deck idea thorn but its too slow and it nothing warrants 4 copies of
evangels light.

I know but I just wanted to see if I could make it plausible.
I think something cheap to give you a boost to life gain (I.e. {Soul Warden}) would be better because that'll give you a bonus to life gain with a much much lower CMC. The Gnaws would probably work fine with their flashback.
Or a {Suture Priest} while it's still legal.
Whoops, yeah, not {Soul Warden}. Not really sure why I thought she was still in standard :-\
This is not a competetive deck. It is just a way to use all of your {Archangel's Lights} and {Arcane Meles}
Either way, it would still be fun to see your opponents face when they get destroyed by some cups :)
Well thank you.
My main idea with these posts is to help new players make budget friendly decks and let seasoned players do something new with their cards.
Thorn, I think that this could be semi competitive with some alterations, but who cares? It doesn't have to be competitive in standard. My decks aren't very competitive, but I enjoy playing them. So what if it won't win at FNM? It's still fun to play with friends. If you wanted to make the deck a tad more plausible, you could run {Cathedral Sanctifier}, the bouncing angels (whatever they're called) with the land that gives you life when an angel enters the battle field, {cloudshift} and all that jazz. I say build it! I'd like to see how it works for you.
Thank you for saying that^^.
I'm actually getting (buying/trading) the cards for it right now.
