Anyone here read Anthony Alongi?

"WINNER B. Right alongside Aaron's mono-red is Jay Strode's (me!!!) near-mono-blue version splashing just a bit of red for the following:

4x Coalition Victory
1x Sol Ring
2x Ancient Spring
2x Sand Silos
4x Coastal Tower
4x Salt Marsh
3x Shivan Oasis
3x Urborg Volcano
3x Reflection Pool
4x Veiled Birds
4x Volrath's Laboratory
4x Clone
4x Control Magic
4x Bribery
4x Confiscate
3x Conquer
1x Dream Coat
2x Jinx
4x Phantasmal Terrain
2x Prismatic Lace
2x Collective Restraint
3x Counterspell
2x Energy Field
2x Force of Will
1x Kor Haven

This is a slightly more rigorous attempt to "steal away" the elements you need for the victory. Volrath's Laboratory, Clone, and the absolutely stellar Phantasmal Terrain supplement the theft theme."

I got a scribbled-on Coalition Victory coming in the mail!

Wow! Cool! Congratulations.

 

[superguy]

That's you?? Congrats man!!!
I read Alongi's stuff all the time, I think I've read pretty much every one of his articles, starting from Dojo up to starcity. Anyways, great job and creativeness on that deck!!!

 

[theorgg]

Nice Job!

now where does the scribbled victory get sent?
:{ )

Have you recieved your foil yet?

Anyway, It's about time someone on the CPA won the Casual Break This Card contest!!!

 

[Gerode]

Haven't gotten the card yet. I'll be gone until this Friday, so I expect to have it by then.

 

[Darsh]

Congrats Gerode
I read his stuff all the time.

 

[Spiderman]

Way to go!

 

[Duel]

Yeah, booya to you. Conrgats, looked like a fun deck.

 

[olwen]

Looks very good. Bet it was fun to create a workable deck.

 

[Mr_Pestilence]

Well, you're missing a few things, 5 things to be precise. Namely, you need one of each basic land in play to meet the victory condition. Keep trying!

 

[olwen]

I think you're supposed to get all land types by using either Phantasmal Terrain or Conquering/Confiscating them from your opponent(s).

 

[Sammy Dead-O]

I saw that but didn't know it was a CPAer. Nice job!

 

[Istanbul]

Where's Shyft? You can't have a nearly-mono-blue Coalition Victory deck without Shyft! Sheesh.

 

[Spiderman]

Alongi disallowed Shyft and one other card to promote diversity and creativity.

Mr_Pestilence -> Also point out to me where all the creatures are.
There's no way I could build a very good deck (I think Aaron Forsythe also won - how can I compete with that?), so I tried to make the craziest pile. No basic lands? No problem. That's probably why I won.
