Foundations Online Casual Monoblue Starter Deck

 This deck is not tribal. There are Wizards and Pirates decks, but I don't see one of these tribal decks coming out of only Foundations cards.




It's a mono-blue deck and so it is accurte to model it in solitaire into turns 6,7,8. The decks works on lowering the cost of instants and sorceries, and also having enough of them in the graveyard to lower the casting cost of Tolarian Terror. Mocking Sprite and Archmage of Ruins lower the costs, and Lunar Insight is a very powerful draw engine.







Foundations Online Casual Cat Starter Deck

 This deck is from the made-up selection online to get started with Foundations deckbuilding. All of the cards in this deck are in Foundations. I will refine it as I add more cards to this limited cubing fun exercise.




Here are a few solitaire games showing turn 5 board states. Banner of kinship comes in too late to be a good anthem, yet it can be used for any creature type. Helpful Hunter drawing a card on entry turns out to be very useful. This is just the start for this deck. It needs better lifegain.






Foundations $10 in online tickets Starter Collection

 There is no starter collection product online. I therefore got me $10 worth of tickets, and got a representative starter collection. I got 11 Mythic Rares.


I got 103 rares.






I also got 200 uncommons and 235 rares, for a total of 549 cards. I am only missing one uncommon and one common from the ones available online. There are some cards in the non-pack products that are not available online.

I also have all of the reprints in other sets online but I will only use these cards as a limited deckbuilding exercise.
