Dealing with a discard deck

[Zh1199]

Hey. So here's the story. I play with some if my school friends during my lunch friends. We play casually but aren't afraid to get anal on rules. Ive been playing a white weenie-control deck for some time, making use of really effective creatures like {Porcelian Legionare} as well as equipment based metalcraft with cards like {Batterskull} and {Puresteal Paladan} and my friend comes in with a blue black  discard deck and I've been losing constantly. Any ideas on how to counter it.             Id rather not have to switch colors        TL;DR white weenie losing to blue black discard WAAAAAA

Add some elixer of immortalitys and a big eldrazi that really big ones that shuffle your graveyard in once they go into it

Thanks I'll give it a try

That's going to be really hard is the basis of your deck creature advantage or rallying forces or what?

[Goblinking]

Empires combo might help being able to drop alot of tokens u might over power then add cards like coat of arms to increase ur small guys

[Zh1199]

My deck rellys heavily on rallying force. 4x {Gardian Pledge} . I'll try the elixir, but eldrazi is just too expensive

[Mentonin]

The idea of the eldrazi is NOT pay for it, its to discard so you shuffle your deck back together

[Spikepit]

He's right that what the Eldrazi Spawn were created for.

I see. Thanks for the advice

I like the idea of the empires combo more, but I lack the {Throne of Empires}

If you are having trouble with discarding, and you are playing Casual (which is the forum) You might want to add equipment to help you fill up your hand like {Mask of Memory} or {Infiltration Lens}.  Perhaps {Remember the Fallen} to guy some of your guys back.  Are you being milled, or just can't play with no cards in hand?

You're playing WW, right? Shouldn't you get your creatures out first? :confused:

I would just say make your WW deck more aggressive and leaner. If you want to play cards that punish discard, madness, {Bottled Cloister}, and {Ensnaring Bridge} are your friends.

I play a w/w deck all soldiers and a cleric grand abolisher is a life saver

Wow, somany great ideas! Thanks I'll see if I can get a hold of some of those cards. I started recently so most of my cards are from the Scars of Miirodin block
