Notes:
Win condition: zombie knight creature damage.  This deck uses Haakon to continually cast {Nameless Inversion} for the gy, and Kelpie to draw for every time you do.

BlackJester

Note: this deck is geared for casual multiplayer. Troll accordingly.

Oh nice. Might i suggest {Jace's Erasure} for your deck. It could be pretty helpful

BlackJester

I good card, but not really in line with my strategy.

I do like the combo of {Haakon, Stromglad Scourge} + {Nameless Inversion} + {Rooftop Storm} for infinite, instant-speed +3/-3.

Mwaa haa haa!

Problem is, I have too many ideas to go in this deck.  :(  I can't do them all.  Should I focus more on Knights? Do more with casting from my graveyard, like flashback cards? 

{Crystal Ball} + {Cellar Door} is great for reanimation decks too.

Also, I see this deck having a hard time with enchantments/artifacts, and hexproof dudes.

Queezle

Maybe {Go for the Throat}
might help you cause it can destroy artifacts but i dont know of many swamp or island cards that destroy enchantments.

Queezle

Oh whoops wrong card my bad sorry.

BlackJester

Deck updated. If all goes well, you might be seeing this deck Thursday, Nov 17. ;)

Are you sure it works? Nameless Inversion isn't a creature, so Rooftop Storm won't be able to cast it for free.

Dang!  I missed the "creature" part. I thought I said any Zombie spell. 😭
Classic "read-the-whole-card" fail.

I apologize for bursting your bubble.

BlackJester

I'd rather know now than find out in the middle of a game and look like an even bigger idiot. 😜 besides, I still think there are a lot of other good things goin on with this deck.

But, you did give me an idea. If I can change the creature type on {Rooftop Storm} to Knights, then I could use {Court Hussar} to draw my entire library. 😃

Phat Max

Do it! I think I'm gonna borrow this idea

Phat Max


BlackJester

Already added. 😉

Let me know how it goes Phat Max. I like it when people use my ideas.

I think this deck needs a sac outlet for infinite fun. Hmmm...

Phat Max

Maybe {Grimgrin, Corpse born}. I like the idea of {Rooftop Storm} into him, then change it to Knights for something like {Court Hussar}
