Adventure Awaits [EDH]

I was so drawn to the silly idea of an Adventure deck that I once built such a deck helmed by Kasimir the Lone Wolf. And I've been biding my time since then. At long last, here we are.

This deck isn't supposed to be especially strong, but I had a lousy start. Kept what looked like a decent opening hand and found myself pitted against Leyline of the Void. Should have just gone with my usual policy that if it's casual EDH and someone throws down an opening Leyline of the Void, I just scoop. My problems became worse when I ended up lacking red mana. Everyone else outpaced me and I died pretty easily. Not a great game and not a decent showing even for a low-power deck.

This one reminds me of the Isu deck. I'm so fully committed to the adventure theme, that the deck just kind of flounders against more finely-tuned engines. Yeah, the synergies are decent and it's a mistake to count the deck out entirely. It really can pack a punch. But it's just not strong enough to truly compete at my local game store. Got to ramp up the power level some.

Now with even more adventuring...

-1 Faerie Slumber Party
+1 Tlincalli Hunter
+1 Virtue of Knowledge
+1 Virtue of Strength

Manascrewed too much with this one. Even though I bought a couple of cards specifically to throw in this deck, I think I'm taking it apart next. The gimmick is too weak for EDH these days.
