Description of deck by it's author
(quoted):
There are a lot of
misconceptions about the deck that would eventually be come to known as
Tight Sight and one of them is the idea that it takes a long time to
play out a game. I don't know how anyone arrived at that conclusion. The
deck uses its blue cantrips to gain threshold while accelerating its
mana with Rampant Growth and threshold enabled Far Wanderings. The turn
after Future Sight hits the table - as early as turn 4 - the game takes
off at a blistering pace as you ""draw"" so many
extra cards that you mill away your entire deck. I have won the game as
early as the fifth turn many times.
Since you keep using Far Wanderings,
you end up with most of the land in your deck hitting the table. Once
your deck is milled away, you set up an infinite loop with two Krosan
Reclamations, an Early Harvest, and a Predict by shuffling them back
into your deck and being able to play them off of the Future Sight. You
use the Predict on your opponent, naming a card you know is not in their
deck - drawing two cards could be fatal. Rinse and repeat adding the
conditioning treatment of an Early Harvest whenever you are running low
on mana. While Jon Sonne was still contemplating the ramifications
of passing priority during his first main phase, we demonstrated the
combo for Gerard a few dozen times. He liked the deck and asked if he
could shanghai the copy we had just built. Despite the fervent protests
of Jon and the rest of the CMU/TOGIT Mafia, Gerard decided to give the
deck a shot a qualifying him for the Masters. He made some modifications
to the deck and the end result can be found in the Gateway decklists and
looked like this... |
