MTG (magic) NERDS!

[Pythonfriend]

every few years i get the magic bug and dig up my old decks. right now im inactive.

i would like to try out the new format, modern magic, but damn, some of the cards are expensive. 400 euros for a playset of tarmogoyf O_o

i have one competitive deck (if it is still competitive, i know new cards that can improve it have been printed). its the legacy enchantress deck, basically you do mana ramp with land enchants and then play a bunch of enchantments that really majorly screw the opponent, while setting up a card draw engine.

then you go into complete lockdown with solitary confinement and sterling grove.

At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice Solitary Confinement unless you discard a card.

Skip your draw step.

You have shroud. (You can't be the target of spells or abilities.)

Prevent all damage that would be dealt to you.

Other enchantments you control have shroud. (They can't be the targets of spells or abilities.)

{1}, Sacrifice Sterling Grove: Search your library for an enchantment card and reveal that card. Shuffle your library, then put the card on top of it.

its designed so that no other tournament deck has any chance of breaking the lockdown. so either the opponent wins really fast, or manages to screw me, or i win.

i also have an elf combo deck. when it goes off, you play a ton of elves and finish by removing summoning sickness, or by sacrificing them for 2 damage each.

maybe i should revive the hobby. i never sold my old cards, at least not the ones that are in decks, so i have some good stuff.
