What do you like? Goblins, Elves, Faeries, B/W Tokens, Cephalid Breakfast, Replenish, Oath, Dredge, Lands, Swans? Do a little research and you may have yourself a fun EDH deck for your troubles. So, that’s how you take an EDH deck from zero to competitive when you are just getting in the format. Every deck deserves a trump, and since the deck mostly plays “fair magic” and non-busted mana, it’s only reasonable to play one too.
With Reverse the Sands on the stack, Blink Selenia as many as 18 times (going from 38 life to a paltry 2 points) and then swap the life totals around so you are well ahead and someone is knocking really hard on death’s door. Tap 8 for Reverse the Sands, using a Boseiju so it can’t be countered if need be. Now, to take it up another notch, that 2 life blink is a sick ability when cards like Mirror Universe, Magus of the Mirror, Soul Conduit, and Reverse the Sands exist. She is a blinking spirit with a manaless activation, and rarely costs more than the initial 5 mana. 'Grrhahha' which obviously translates to 'I got you bro.' 14. She can actually kill someone with a reasonable number of hits in the air with or without a sword. A walker drops in and Liliana's oath makes sure one of her servants is on guard. She’s reasonably costed as a 3/3 evasive creature for 5 mana. I opted for the classic (and super cheap) Selenia, Dark Angel. I didn’t want to do Teysa, as BW tokens will be a future project. Vish is very much a late game deck and borders on Combo. I wanted an aggressive B/W option that could keep up with Alex B’s (from Cass & I’s play group) Vish Kal list. With the discard effects from Dead Guy, and some reasonable replacements available (cards like Voidstone Gargoyle and Tidehollw Sculler) you can beef out the higher end of your curve and add more late game to the generally aggressive Dead Guy strategy.įinally, I added the general. It dominated in Invasion Block Constructed Season (yeah, taking it back to the 00s). The deck played light artifact mana, counterspells, and disruption like Meddling Mage. Angel-Geddon was generally a 3 color deck (the third color was blue), and was designed to close out the game with Desolation Angel.
Incorperating Angel-geddon was a little harder. Dead Guy Ale is a Legacy deck, EDH allows the power to port over well. You add in things like graveyard hate, format staples and you have most of the deck. Eight and a Half Tales and Mother protect your threats, Serra Ascendant, Divinity of Pride, Vampire Nighthawk, and Bloodgift Demon are powerful bombs with powerful effects. Dead Guy Ale plays cards like Mother Of Runes, Swords To Plowshares, Stoneforge Mystic, etc. Liliana Of the Veil, Cunning Lethemancer, Unnerve, Syphon Mind, and the like are all excellent multi-player discards that are reasonable in 1v1 as well. Cards like Hymn To Tourach and Thoughtseize are bad in EDH, but there are better replacements in the format. How do they work? Dead Guy Ale is a BW agro-control deck that wins through aggressive creatures and discard effects. Now, how did this deck come about? I based it on two fun black/white deks.
