    Why would you have a wolfir avenger when you could have a silverheart

    Why?

    it's arguably one of the best nuke/removals ever printed and easily one of the most powerful cards in type 2 currently

    So just it's a really good card? Yeah. Now that I think about it I might have one lying around.

    Wish I had preordered more bonfires for 4 dollars.

    Glad I didn't preorder any vexing devils at whatever crazy price that shot up to.

    And flash on Wolfir Avenger is huge vs Delver.

    Werewolves as a tribal deck concept are not competitive, to answer your question, but if this is your joint then cool beans. Also yea, I didn't include bonfire or huntmaster of the fells earlier because this looks like a budget deck to me and I didn't want to send you after $20+ cards.

    The green infect deck is pretty awful. The UG one isn't awful, but predator ooze isn't a thing against decks that run dismember.

    I'm not gonna buy anything online but we have a pretty rich community and I'd be able to get most anything.

    I just started this one recently so it's just thrown together with what I already had.

    While I'm bummed that my deck can't be very competitive I'm still gonna try and make it the best I can cause I like me some Werewolves and flipping mechanics so thank you guys for the recommendations.

    So let me try another.

    I was think about a liliana of the veil deck based on flashbacks and morbids. Anything in that?

    Yes, UB control will usually happen in a given meta every few months, with some variation around that core. Nephalia Drownyards and Forbidden Alchemy are heavily included, as is Bloodline Keeper (usually). Sometimes you'll see variants with Consecrated Sphinx. I have seen people running anywhere between 6 and 15 counterspells.

    Anyway, what happens meta-wise is everyone hates in on that for a month or two, then forgets and they all go back to vanilla delver or ramp, and it comes back and wins again. The meta's pretty consistent that way at the moment, despite the laughable delusions Mike Flores keeps experiencing.

    E: Morbid in this instance is usually Morbid Tragic Slip. Human Frailty is also now a thing for removal, as are Go For the Throat, Doomblade and Black Sun's Zenith.

    I will take mill over a focused counter deck any day

    mill has a chance at you not being able to play something you need, but I've had way too many games where I could play literally nothing because I had no believable bait spells and that lead to the same situation of "I have a hand of stuff I want to play but it is worthless because I can't use any of it"

    Fair point. There is no mill deck in constructed that will allow you to retain your dignity.

    Why exalted! Why not a mechanic I will actually use!

    (I do not draft core sets because BAH)


    (I especially do not draft core sets that come right before Ravnica and which have no manabase I'm looking to use)

    There is no Zombie Mill deck that can go to a real event, rather than FNM or a store tourney. If you're playing in REG events, that isn't competitive and doesn't factor, although if that's your juice then by all means mill away!

    It was just a fun idea I had. The other deck I'm running is White/Black tokens. Its really good but its just nowhere near as fun as zombie mill.

    Reall ywant to do a red/white or green/blue deck soon though. I just can't afford magic right now as I'm getting ready to move soon
