Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
Don’t let the expensive cards fool you: you can play this deck
without Junun Efreet and Kjeldoran Outpost and do just as well,
guaranteed! But if you’re lucky enough to have an Efreet, check it: you
put the Efreet’s upkeep on the stack. You then pump the Efreet using
Shade's Form to a 6/6. (Since it has a Brilliant Halo on it, it’s really
a 7/8.) Then you activate the Animal Boneyard you’ve strategically
placed on your Kjeldoran Outpost to gain 8 life.
The Efreet comes back because of the Form's effect. Halo comes back to
your hand, ready to play again. And best of all: you don’t have to pay
the Efreet’s upkeep again until your next turn. Mise. Sure, it can’t
attack until then either; but if you’re quibbling about small details
like that, then I can’t help you.
The single Painbringer is so you have a use for all of the enchantments
that will eventually end up in your graveyard, if you play this deck.
The single Replenish is an intentional slap in the face of all those
combo-Replenish players who won’t believe you’re using a $15 card to
bring back stuff like Maggot Therapy and Tattoo Ward.
I’m also curious to see whether or not Traveling Plague would be funny
in conjunction with Humility and/or Humble. I suspect that it would be;
but I haven’t had time to test that…yet.
