Hi, It's been awhile since I've posted anything to this list and even longer since I've played T1, but I have a balck/white deck up for critiques. The deck tries to exploit the underrated card greed (mainly 'cause I only have 1 necro) and soft lock the opp. under disrupting scepter. Anyway, here it is:
WHITE:
4 serra angel
2 staunch defenders
4 disenchant
4 sword to plwshares
4 gerrads wisdom
1 hidden retreat
1 balance
1 celestial dawn (not sure about this. It hasn't played a part in testing yet)
BLACK:
2 greed
1 necro
1 demonic tutor
2 mindwarp
4 diabolic edict
1 ihsans shade
1 dregs of sorrows
1 minion of the wastes ( I often have around 30-50 life so I can spend a bit to get him out)
ARTI:
3 disrupting scepter
1 sol ring
LAND:
1 strip mine
4 scrubland
4 mishras factory
7 plains
5 swamp
1 maze of ith
During playtesting, the deck lost 3 out of 10 games. Of these 3, 2 were to geddon and the third was due to mana screw (1 mana in top 15 cards isn't good)
All help is appreciated, just don't tell me to add power nine and that sort of thing as I dont' have it.
