Description of deck by Adrian
Sullivan (of www.magicthegathering.com):
One of the features I especially like in this
deck is the use of Far Wanderings. You can expect that a deck like this
will be able to achieve Threshold quite quickly and easily, so Far
Wanderings is very likely to grab three lands and more than make up for
the Psychic Vortex land drawback. Far Wanderings also makes splashing
for Seismic Assault much, much easier. Brendan talks about this in his
own discussion of this deck:
Psychic Vortex gets you cards, lots of cards. For the
average deck, about a third of these cards will be Lands, and most of
these will be discarded, but I figure why not throw them into the
graveyard yourself and pick up a little bonus on the side? This brings us
to one of my favorite cards, Seismic Assault. Certainly an elegant card.
We're going to be in a bit of a tight spot here, what with our Land being
eaten off of the board as well as straight from the hand, but since
they're all going to the same place, and this place is the graveyard, this
is the ideal place to add Far Wanderings. That'll keep the Vortex happy
for a few turns so we can keep chucking Islands at our opponent. Speaking
of the opponent, they're going to be doing stuff between our turns, which
can potentially be very bad. We can shut them down pretty tightly, though,
with a couple of well placed artifacts that capitalize on our handlessness,
namely, Ensnaring Bridge and another convenient gem, Null Brooch.
Stormbind can keep excess copies of our main enchantments and Bridges from
being dead cards, and we'll pack a couple of Reminisces to keep the combo
rolling, and/or act as a little back-up. A handful of Green Walls for
early defense and/or mana acceleration, and that's the core of the deck. |
