by Alex Wilson Keeping ConTROLL Welcome to the 12th issue of Beyond Dominia. I figure it's about time for me to get away from that old concept of tourney decks and move into something a little more fun. This month, I would like to introduce my Troll deck. I call it "Keeping ConTROLL" because thats exactly what you do. Nevinyrral's Disk is a key component for this deck. Setting off the Disk and watching your Trolls merely shake off the effect is really fun. As an added bonus, False Demise will help you gain a huge creature advantage as your opponent's creatures return to play-- on your side! Okay. You're probably wondering how many Trolls there are. Well, first there's the Sedge Troll. This will be one of the biggest creatures and is a main offensive creature. By the time you get it out, it should be a 3/3. Next, there's the unuseful Sea Troll. Now, when you play this card, it will be referred to as Bait. For the rest of this article, I will also refer to it as Bait. This will be because I'm almost reluctant to use it. It should feel really lucky it bears the name Troll. Then, of course, there's the Uthden Troll. This will serve as another Sedge Troll, but a bit smaller. It will also serve the defensive side, being able to regenerate after it blocks makes your defense inpenetrable. Last, but not least, there's the Jungle Troll. He reminds me of the monster from The Muppets. That huge mean face that couldn't hurt a fly. Well, he can defend against a fly at least... To seal off the defense, Shatter works well. Being able to block anything is a huge advantage. Now that you have a good defense, throw in our favorite card-drawing buddy, Howling Mine. What's more fun that getting new cards with Howling Mine? Teferi's Puzzlebox Works wonders in a 4 color deck! Speaking of 4 color deck, were going to need a way to get everything out. With 4 Gemstone Mines and and 2 Undiscovered Paradises, getting things out is a cinch! They should get the trolls out until you get regular land to sustain their regenerative needs. Finally, here's the deck: (60)
