Honestly WOTC doesn't seem too concerned about this product. The official page doesn't have a decklist or anything. Junk on their part in my opinion. Are there any alt art cards besides Vensor and Koth?

I don't know if they ever DO put the Decklist on product pages. I think they expect ppl to search for them. 😒

Oh I was thinking of the PDS. I still think they're just being lazy though.

I'm thinking of taking Koth out for my Fire and Lightning, in Place of {Keldon Champion}. Any thoughts?

Koth

Just bought it. I was going to get one of the Innistrad event decks but they were all out at our petite little game store and I dont really have the disposable income to buy magic cards all that often so I bought the duel decks. They are pretty easy intro decks to MTG. I usually use control decks which are a little complicated, so I was relieved to have these in order to teach my sister MTG.

Is it wörth its Money?

Koth's deck is jank, the Venser one, is, decent. It has a sweet looking {Path to Exile}! =D
Idk about them being worth their cost though...

[BlackJester]

Alt art:
{Preordain}
{Path to Exile} (😃)
{Anger} ('cause the last art suct)
{Plated Geopede}
{Koth, of the Hammertime!}
{Venser, The Sunbather}
One more...

Thats an odd original art

[ChrisRodriguez]

It's not alt. art {ponder}, but alt. art {Preordain}.

[BlackJester]

It's not alt. art {ponder}, but alt. art {Preordain}.

Thanks!  and through the magic of timetravel, it's been retroactively fixed!

On this. I just purchased these decks, am yet to play them, but from reports of people in my meta, the Koth deck is much faster, and unless you get a great opening hand with the Venser deck, crazily hard to win with.

I just bought this pack and I'm heaps looking forward to using that cranky Vulshock's deck!

[BlackJester]

Venser's deck rewards clever, trick players. I think it has the tools to deal with Koth, but you have to make good plays. I like the match.

So I did end up getting the first match done. We randomized and I ended up with Koth. I started really well, hittin hard early, making him block with creatures and clearing his board a few times. Then I hit a snag as my hand ran dry ad he still had 6 or 7 cards. I pretty much was playing off the top of my deck with 6 mana and he was able to start combining some crazy cards to do some pretty cool stuff.
He came back for the win with unblockables and flyers that I had no answer for.
I think that even if I had played it a little differently I would have only got him down to 4 or 5 before he could combo stuff again and have me all tied up.

So if you can use the red decks early advantage, got for the win at all costs, coz when it comes to the later part of the game, that's all venser's ground.
