My LGS is having a tournament where everyone plays a deck where everything in it is a common card, and they all have to be the same. Obviously we get lands.

I was thinking either a {bronze sable} deck
(For Llama)
Or all {Llanowar elves}

I don't have 40 of them. I was however thinking of {shock}

FustyDavorite

{Ponder} because card advantage kills

{Lightning Bolt}
I'm pretty sure that just wins. That sounds ridiculously easy. Turn 1 Bolt. Turn 2 double bolt, turn 3 double bolt. Top deck and just get there.

Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth

#5
10 {Mountain}s
50 {Lightning Axe}s

With {Lightning Bolt}s you win Turn 4, with {Lightning Axe}s, you win turn 3 (assuming you don't pull a ton of lands and/or don't get screwed). Plus, to pull a turn 3 win with {Lightning Axe}s, you just need a land turn one and another one on turn 3.

Lightning axe says target creature only.

I'd say either Glacial Ray or Surging Flame.

{Glacial Ray} gives you value off of having more copies in your hand and basically functions as if you had even more than you already had.

Having like, 15-20 Mountains and 40-45 {Surging Flame}, however.  You might just always kill people on Turn 2.

imFourth of Phils

{Surging Flame} or {Surging Sentinel}

Remillo

{Thought Scour} could work, too, since it replaces itself, though Mill is much slower than damage.

{Surging Sentinels} also provides an Aggro strategy, if you wanted to go with that.

I'm still thinking Flames is the way to go if you want to actually kill people.  And kill them fast.

Oh god I'm going sentinels

Remillo

Tier 1 (Turn 2 Kill):
45 {Surging Flame}, 15 Mountain

Tier 2 (Turn 4 Kill):
39-40 {Surging Sentinels}, 20-21 Plains

Tier 3:
everything else.

With 40-45 of the Ripple cards, you should be able to consistently ripple through your deck to just kill people.  You're welcome for solving the format for you!  Have fun!

Here's hoping no {Elecktrickery}

Remillo

But how would they win?  Got have creatures, burn or mill for any deck to work in this format! and Electrickery doesn't hit players
