How it Works

This is a type 2 deck based on tempo and feild reset. It uses the seldomly seen barren glory card as one of its win conditions.

Wrath of god, Boom/Bust, and Magus of the Disk to clear the feild of permanants. Then use a lost auramancers or just play a barren glory. If needed, ignorant bliss aids in eliminatinating your hand and stopping discard. Sac a magus and follow that up with a boom//bust. Then sac all your permanents that would be destroyed to get out the gargadon. The result is that they are facing a 9/7 haste when they have no permanents. There is more than just barren glory as a win condition. I realize this deck is a bit slow and it has its weaknesses but so does every deck. This is all tempo reset and will work based on my skill, timing and luck. Please rate reasonably and use some of the coments posted to help you with the insight into the deck.

Note this deck is useful in both multi and single player and I use it in both.

Finished and playtested in FNM, and Chaos. Has won and lost in both. It usually does well in FNM but they all use decks that have won big tournaments so I tend to lose once in a while. Also doesn't do too well against Char Belcher 2-land decks. ¤

Other T2 decks I play at FNM and chaos include my Bitter cantor deck and very seldomly (only for fun) my Zur's magemark deck.
