Answer To Aggro?

60 cards, 0 sideboard


4 {Watery Grave}
9 {Swamp}
5 {Island}
2 {Temple Garden}
1 {Breeding Pool}
1 {Steam Vents}
2 {Overgrown Tomb}

24 lands


2 {Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker}
4 {Havengul Lich}

6 creatures


3 {Gilded Lotus}
4 {Ultimate Price}
4 {Essence Scatter}
2 {Victim of Night}
2 {Mutilate}
4 {Tragic Slip}
2 {Chromatic Lantern}
2 {Supreme Verdict}
3 {Lingering Souls}
4 {Unburial Rites}

30 other spells


Sideboard

Notes:
With all the talk about aggro dominating, I had this idea. Basically kill everything they play and then steal it with {havengul lich}.

I kinda want to say a playset of {Unburial Rites} is a tad too much

Yeah you're probably right. Any idea of what I could maybe replace two of them with?

Possibly more board wipes? Or some Walkers?

Silent1236

I like ID's idea.  Maybe {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage} or {Ral Zarek}?  Maybe {Terminus} for the new Boros champ?

Mike_garzone

Perhaps two {soul ransom}? Or {trepanation blade} could be fun with mirko

Silent1236

I'd say flip the number of {Victim of Night} and {Ultimate Price}

Mikefrompluto

Yeah im liking all of these ideas. Thanks guys! Im kind of excited to put this together and see how it does.

Very cool idea! 
With most true aggro decks only running 22 land tops, a few hits with the  {Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker} could deck them pretty quick.
What about  {Increasing Confusion}?

You want  {Supreme Verdict} to be a 4 of agaisnt aggro

Thanks! Yeah, I might use {increasing confusion} as an alt win-con. If they aren't playing aggro, 90% of the deck becomes useless, so ill need a backup plan.

Haha I thought {Increasing Confusion} wasn't standard legal.  Damn {Blue Sun's Zenith} playin' with my brain!
