Decks Propagated Throughout the MDV Deck Database...
4/28/08 - After three months of posting the decks I am
finally propagating the deck database with these decks. It is done
as of this post. Now I can concentrate on posting new decks.
I apologize it has taken so long to get this complete. Thanks for
visiting MDV! ~Streetz~ |
 About
the Deck Database Updated!
12/28/07 - After several years of this page being
dormant, I have updated it with some additional information. It's
like a FAQ now with an index of common DDB questions at the top in
addition to the introduction. Check it out and let me know if I am
missing anything. Thanks. ~Streetz~ |
120
New Decks Propagated!
10/20/07 - All of the recently posted 120 decks have been
propagated throughout the MDV Deck Database including the navigation
pages, the by color pages and the by type pages. You can see all
of the new decks in one place by clicking
here. Enjoy! ~Streetz~ |
MDV
Deck Database Update - 120!/120.
10/10/07 - Previously, I was only going to post 100
decks. But given the timely release of Lorwyn, I thought it was
appropriate to add another 20 decks - some of which include Lorwyn
Cards. The new deckswill be propagated throughout the deck
database in the next week. In the meantime, they are at least all
posted. ~Streetz~ |
MDV
Deck Database Update in Progress...
9/30/07 - The 100 decks I have collected over the past
few months are finally being posted. I've started the update today
and plan on finishing it within the next week. In the meantime,
you can check out the deck names and brief descriptions. ~Streetz~ |
MDV
Deck Database Updated with 51 New Decks!
5/9/07 - This time around I've hit almost every deck
category including ALTWIN, BEATDOWN, BURN, COMBO, CONTROL, GROUP,
INFINITY, LAND DESTRUCTION, LITE, LOCKDOWN, MILL, RECURSION, S.C.S.,
THEME, TRIBAL, UN Decks and even WEENIE!About
fifteen of the new decks were from articles over the past two months.

enjoy this deck database update. As always, if you have any
concerns or questions about the MDV DDB, let me know via email or in the

 Deck
of the Day has begun!
3/27/07 - Deck of the Day is a new feature on Magic Deck
Vortex where you get to see a (maybe) random deck from the vast database
of decks on Magic Deck Vortex. Sometimes you'll find some
insightful piece of information about the deck. Sometimes it will
just be a glimpse of a deck you never knew existed. Each weekday,
a new deck will be featured on the home page. ~Streetz~ |
March's
Deck Database Posted & Complete!
3/4/07 - MDV will be posted deck database updates more
often now. What this means is smaller updates, but quicker
turnarounds. This month I've added 30 new decks to the database
including some GROUP, LITE, INFINITY and MILL decks. That and all
of the propagation is complete with this update. Remember that if you ever
have any suggestions about the database, to email me. Thanks for
visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
January's
Deck Propagation Complete.
2/8/07 - All of the decks from the deck database
update in January have been propagated throughout the MDV Deck Database
including the 'by color' pages and the 'by type' pages. Please
enjoy last months selections of decks. Remember that if you ever

visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
January's
Deck Database Update: 67/67
1/31/07 - Despite the continual server problems MDV
has been having of late, I have completed the last few decks in the Deck
Database Update for January. I still have to propagate the decks
into the other navigational pages, but they are at least all there for
your review. Thanks for visiting MDV! ~Streetz~ P.S. Combo
pages will be updated with deck links once the deck database is
complete. |
January's
Deck Database Update: 51/67
1/30/07 - Given the setback of last week's server
issues, I haven't completed the deck database update yet. However,
I have posted 17 more decks bringing the total to 51 of 67. This
time, I plan to finish the update before the end of this week.
Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ P.S. Combo
pages will be updated with deck links once the deck database is
complete. |
January's
Deck Database Update: 34/67
1/23/07 - This month I have 67 decks in store for you.
Some of these are deck submissions from the forum, some of from past
articles on MDV, and a whole bunch are from all other corners of the
Internet. I'm about half done with entering the decks and I plan
to finish this up before week's end. If you want to see the deck
summary for the decks not posted yet, go

What
is [DBM] and how can you get it?
1/16/07 - [DBM] is a forum term that means "DataBase
Material" -- which basically translates into 'a deck that could be
added to the Magic Deck Vortex Database of Decks'.
Anything labeled in the casual deck forums with [DBM] in the thread
title means I have my eye on it. Getting a DBM can be tough as I
typically only choose decks that the database doesn't have and/or is
based on a combo in the Combo Pages that
doesn't have a deck associated with it yet. However, you can read
the full details on DBM
here
in the forums. One of the great things about the
Casual Deck Forum is that there are a plethora of users who will
help you perfect your deck and make it work to it's prime. You could be
one of those people too! If you haven't joined the forums, you can
do so here.
In the meantime, thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~
P.S. You could always become a writer on MDV and
write articles with your decks in them. That's another way to get
your decks added to the Deck Database of MDV! |
Deck
Database Update: Done & Propagated
11/30/06 - Apologies for the lack of articles being
posted today and yesterday, but I really wanted to get the deck database
update complete. And finally, it is! The decks have all been
posted and also propogated throughout the by color and by type pages.
Please enjoy this month's deck upgrade, as there are an ecclectic bunch
of decks. Even the Historical Deck Page got a few new ones.
Thanks for visiting MDV! ~Streetz~ |

I have posted another 17 decks in the new decks page bringing me up to
80 of 91 decks posted. Once all 91 are posted, I will proceed to
propagate them through the by color and by deck type database pages.
In the meantime, please enjoy the new decks in the database. Should you
find any errors on any of the deck pages, please let me
know. Thank you for visiting Magic Deck Vortex... which is
a site that is more than meets the eye!

Once all 91 are posted, the decks will be propogated into the by type
and by color pages. In the meantime, please enjoy the new decks in
the database. Should you find any errors on any of the deck pages,
please let me

a site that is more than meets the eye!

Submitting
Decks to Magic Deck Vortex...
11/12/06 - Have you ever wondered how to submit a deck
to the MDV Deck Database? It's easier than you think. While
MDV has tried many different means of submitting decks, including via
email and via a Tool generated by AdventuresOn, all deck submissions
will now need to be posted in the Casual Deck Forum, linked above.
If your deck is DBM'd in that forum, that means it has the possibility
of being added to the database. To find out more about the [DBM]
phrase used in the deck forum, please go
here.
If you have any questions about this, reply to the post linked
previously. Otherwise, just make sure to read the forum rules and
use card/deck tags in your submission. Also, note that I will be
updating the entire deck submission section on MDV Main -- but I didn't
have time to do that today. Expect that sometime in the next month
or so. I hope to include some basic guides to deck building, deck
etiquette and the like. Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex!

August's
Deck Update: 40 New Decks!
8/31/06 - Forty new decks have been added to the deck
database including a lot of decks using Coldsnap and Dissension cards.
There is even one Infinity deck and three land destruction decks and
mill decks! About half of these decks are decks from existing

Please enjoy this update and keep checking back every month for more
decks to be added to the deck database. Thanks for visiting MDV!
~Streetz~ Note: The decks have been propagated throughout the deck
database. |
July's
Deck Update Complete: 21 New Decks.
7/9/06 - It may be a small update, but at least I

added completely to the MDV deck database. There's a nice selection
of decks this time around with two Beatdown, one Burn, four Combo, four
Control, five Recursion, two Single-Card-Strategies, one Theme and
finally two tribal decks. There is also some Lite, Group and Vintage
decks in the mix. Thanks
for visiting MDV!!! ~Streetz~ Note: Propagation Completed. |
Deck
Database Propagation Complete!
6/23/06 - All 60 of the new decks recently added to
the deck database here on Magic Deck Vortex have been 'propagated'!
That is, all of the decks are now added to the
by color,
by type,
new decks and navigational areas. On a side note, I have
changed that bright red color on all of the deck pages to a darker
red... I found it much more pleasing on the eyes. Sorry about
that. It only took four years to change! Thanks for visiting Magic
Deck Vortex!!! ~Streetz~ |
All
60 decks have been added to the DDB.
6/22/06 - The last nine decks have been entered into
the Deck Database making for a total of 60 new decks. These will
be propagated into the 'by type' and 'by color' pages very soon.
In the meantime, please enjoy the decks on the 'New Decks' page.
Remember, if you have a unique, original and fun deck to submit you can
do it in the casual decks forum,
link
here. Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
More
Decks Added (51/60)...
6/21/06 - I've added seventeen more decks to the New
Decks page in the Deck Database. Only nine more to go until all 60
are posted. Once all are posted I will propagate them throughout
the rest of the DDB including the by type and by color pages.
Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
June
Deck Database Update in Progress.
6/19/06 - As mentioned previously, whenever I peruse
the net for MTG material I bookmark decks that I eventually want to add
to the database. Since the last update I have bookmarked many a
deck. This time around, with the latest DDB update, I have 60 new
decks in store for you. As of today I am over 50% through the update.
34 decks of the 60 proposed have been added. All of these new
decks will be added to the 'by type' and 'by color' sections once all 60
decks are posted. Check out the decks that are posted and the ones
that haven't been. Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex!

News
Decks Propagated throughout the DDB.
4/8/06 - When I say propagated, my new word of the
week, I mean dispersed through the MDV deck database. That is, all
new decks are added to the 'by color' pages, the 'by type' pages and the
navigation pages. Please enjoy! And... thanks for visiting
Magic Deck Vortex - what the casual players use. ~Streetz~ |
Deck
Database Update... Now at 76/76.
4/3/06 - I have posted the remaining 20 decks for the
March Deck Database Update. I have yet to add them to the rest of
the database (by type and by color). Please enjoy the decks and
know that some of these decks correspond to combos recently posted on
the Guildpact Combo Page. Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex,
your one stop site for everything casual! ~Streetz~ |
Deck
Database Update... Now at 56/76.
3/29/06 - Tonight I added 20 more decks, leaving only
20 more decks to go until all 76 decks are complete and then added to
the main database (pages by color and by type). And if you haven't
checked the new decks out yet, that means there's 56 decks for you to
peruse. Please enjoy the decks and know that some of these decks
correspond to combos recently posted on the Guildpact Combo Page.
Thanks for visiting Magic Deck Vortex, your one stop site for everything
casual! ~Streetz~ |
Historical
Decks.. which ones am I missing?
3/24/06 - So I was gathering decks for the next deck
database update and I realized my 'historical
deck database' section was lacking. Yes, I have a lot of decks
in that section of the site... but I thought: which ones am I missing?
I mean, Magic has been around for more than 10 years... there has to be
more than 50 decks to be on this list. While the historical decks
aren't exactly 'casual', they important to see, view, dissect and
understand for any good deck builder. Your task? Look over
the Historical decks and tell me
in this
thread which decks I am missing or that shouldn't be on the list.
Thanks for your help with this in advance! Oh... and thanks for
visiting MDV! ~Streetz~ |
DDB
Update Complete - 78 New Decks!
2/20/06 - Turns out there were a few more than 75
decks - and all of them have been completely added to the main database
(including by color and by type). There is a wide assortment of
decks this time around including a few for almost all of the deck
categories. I even have a new themed deck for you (not tribal).
Thanks for visiting MDV! ~Streetz~
P.S. On a side note - I am no longer using AdventuresOn's deck creation
utility. If you want to submit a deck to MDV, submit it in the
casual
deck forum. Thanks. |
Deck
layout updates complete!
1/29/06 - After eight months of updating each deck
page in the MDV Deck Database, I am finally complete. Each deck
page is now designed around the current deck layout template and where
available, I've added descriptions of the decks. It was amusing to
do this as I saw some of the REALLY old deck page layouts (where were
VERY UGLY). I've also made a few other adjustments here and there.
Overall, I just wanted to make the deck database more consistent in the
way I presented the decks to you. If you ever see any errors on
the deck pages, please let me know. In the meantime, thank you for
visiting Magic Deck Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
More
updates to the DDB...
11/5/05 - Over the past several months I have been
updating the layout of the deck pages to match to current layout (as
best referenced on the latest deck pages). It has been a slow and
grueling process but I am almost done. A-R, Some of S, and X-Z are
now complete. I am referring to the names of the decks. As I
go through the decks I try to find the original article written about
the deck and include the deck description in the MDV Deck Database.
I also try and update the card pictures and sideboard information.
As I have mentioned before, I am trying to complete this by the end of
the year and I am so close to completion. Once I finish this I can
start another big project for MDV. Thanks for visiting Magic Deck
Vortex! ~Streetz~ |
DDB
Update: 43 New Decks!
11/4/05 - Another 43 new decks have been added to the
database including a bunch of combo decks and single card strategy
decks. There are, of course, a few Mill decks, Infinite Decks and
LD decks for your review too. I think this month's decks are a
nice mix that everyone can enjoy. Also note that these decks have
been added to the by color and by type pages. You can discuss this
batch of decks in the forum
here.
Thanks for visiting MDV! ~Streetz~ |
