Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
This is a deck that might be able to clean
house at a multiplayer table. With a Pandemonium out, casting an
Eldritch Shapeshifter deals six damage to someone. Sacrifice it to a
Goblin Bombardment to deal another damage to someone. Then deal two
damage six times as you get Savannah Lions and Isamaru and Jackal Pups.
That's nineteen damage right there, all in one turn. In a duel, that's
usually enough to kill someone in one blow. In multiplayer, it's
repeatable. It's also one of the few combos that leaves you in a good
board position, with all of your newly minted two-power creatures.
In multiplayer, you might want to be prepared for people
to either attack you or Pandemonium you. As such, a creature like Conclave
Phalanx might be a nice choice to bring into play in order to get your
life back up.
This deck will play like a weenie deck for a while.
After all, it has thirteen one-drops. You should be able to drop creatures
quickly. Even if you don't start with a Mountain or a Plains for the Pups,
Lions, and Hound, you should get a Signet or a Skyshroud Elf allowing you
to drop these guys eventually.
I decided to run a few creature tutor effects. Playing a
Tooth and Nail and getting two Eldritch Shapeshifters will deal twelve
damage, and then sacking to Goblin Bombardment deals another two, then
massive damage results after you sack them. I also have a pair of Pattern
of Rebirth to transform one of your cheap creatures into a Shapeshifter.
Because the deck ideally needs a Goblin Bombardment and
a Pandemonium in play, I find that we should reliably get a chance to grab
one. Therefore, I tossed in an Enlightened Tutor. I suspect that, in most
games, you'll naturally draw either a GBB or a Pandemonium. Therefore, you
can tutor for the other. Alternatively, you can try to fit in an Academy
Rector, which you can use your creature tutors to fetch.
Another option I thought of was to try and fit in
Glorious Anthems. The only thing that will kill more quickly than brining
into play six two-power one-mana creatures under a Pandemonium is bringing
into play three- or even four-power creatures instead! Nothing says to a
multiplayer table, “I win” faster than dealing six batches of four damage
each after just dealing six and one. And then, after all of that, you have
those six creatures all in play.
