I was just {curious}.  Wanted see where you were going with the deck.

Oh yea thats cool, i figured it would confuse some people. This is my attempt to make sure other people get to enjoy this wonderful architype that has served me so well for so long before the chaos of rotation jeapordizes it's competitiveness. I have learned so much about this deck idea and it's variations that i want to share it.

Why metamorphic over clone? They cost the same. And I like the lich combo

Kaleo42

Metamorph can be cast on life instead of mana which is a choice you'll often need. Also i have copied sword of war and peace against humans and tokens to many times to count the frustrated net deckers.

So how would you feel about 2 and 2?

Kaleo42

Nope no {clone} it sucks so much. If you want a secondary option then get phantasmal image.

Agree. Clone used to be an OK card. Now metamorph and pimage it's just baddd.

Kaleo, I see you mentioned people aren't familiar with this archetype. I don't think that it's that, I just think people don't like it is all. How does naya pod stack up against this? I only say naya pod because it's very similar to this deck as in it offers a lot of versatility (NP arguably better) just different colors. I'm not sure how everyone feels but black doesn't seem to be that strong of a color in this current block that we have.

Greg54js

Right but Will you also have to realize that all the good clone effects are rotating out. So I thought using clone and the metamorph would make it easier to update the deck when RTR comes around
