Ladies and Gentlemen.
This deck is adapted from a version I saw on the Dojo oh-so long ago, which I have greatly enjoyed playing for months, on-and-off. Now I have a problem. There's an Extended FNM tourney this Friday, so I'm in tuning mode. A good sized portion of the deck is finalized, but there's some parts that aren't quite finished yet.
Unexpected Processor aka Unexpected Complications aka Crash and Burn
4x Birds of Paradise
4x Phyrexian Ghoul
4x Academy Rector
4x Pattern of Rebirth
4x Duress
2x Vampiric Tutor
1x Saproling Burst
1x Seal of Cleansing
1x Confiscate
1x Sliver Queen
1x Spike Weaver
1x Reya, Dawnbringer
It's the parts beyond that I'm having trouble with. More specialized cards (silver bullets)? If so, what? I also want to play with four Llanowars, as they greatly assist the turn 3 kill, and help the deck's mana immensly. What about a sideboard? Additional support cards ala Duress? Remember, I'm planning for a mostly random metagame here, so I'm not seeking a metagame map. Just whatever thoughts you have.
As for the deck, if you can't tell, the plan is very clear and simple - Go for the head. The Ghouls are my primary sacrifice source, though I have a High Market as well as a 5th Ghoul. Sack a Rector to fetch silver bullet of choice, or a Pattern or Rebirth if you need a creature bullet. Or visa-versa. The turn three kill is:
1: Forest, Birds
2: Swamp, Ghoul
3: Plains, Rector. Attack with Ghoul. Sack Rector (4/4) to get a Pattern on the Birds. Sack the Birds (6/6) to put a Rector into play. Sack the new Rector (8/8) to get a Saproling Burst. Make 6 Saprolings, sack them all (20/20). Game over.
Etc. The deck is very, very solid, but lacks consistancy. I've considered the Brainstorm/Land Grant engine, but I lack the duals to make it a solid improvement. Thoughts? Anything?
Good luck to you all!
