[Modern] Undying Part 2 of 2

Link to Part 1

Here are additional games for this super-fun deck.

In this game I felt like it was Innistrad standard. This game was pure attrition.

Vraska is a menace in this deck. She can take out any non-land permanent (and that includes plainswalkers).

By now we have exchanged creature removal and I have lost Vraska. Now I land a Ghoultree, and its gg and I win.

Here I win against a Lotus Cobra. Vinelasher Kudzu keeps getting counters ("Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on Vinelasher Kudzu.").

Splinterfright to the rescue.

More critters in my graveyard to boost Splinterfright.

And even more, now with help from Vraska, gg, I win.

Here is a Shards of Alara match. During the first game of two (I had to leave the match for the third one) I was able to get into a great board position.
 

Crux of Fate wipe from me with TWO Blood Artists and a bunch of critters on the board: gg, I win.

In the second game my opponent was able to pull off their combo: cycle a bunch of critters into the graveyard, then play Open the Vaults.

A very nice play on my opponent's part, they win.

[Modern] Undying Part 1 of 2

I have been pulling from Dark Ascension to play an Undying deck. I still have more singles to buy, and the deck here is using mostly cards I had before cracking packs...

This is such a fun deck that it will require two posts. I got to play with Grim Backwoods, and that was cool (sac a critter, draw a card, and with Undying you don't lose the critter the first time).

This deck makes Tragic Slip a one-drop menace at -13/-13 if a creature died before Tragic Slip is cast, and in this deck I am always sacrificing Undying critters.

Sac!

Boom!

For the win... this opponent had some great artifacts.

Here I beat a white-red weenies aggro deck. My opponent is behind and decides to wipe the board.

But that helps me with more critters in my graveyard for Splinterfright.

Here I am able to survive the early wave of hits from a Red Deck Wins deck.

Tragic Slip! gg eventually since my opponent realizes I have an army of Undying critters. I love Undying!

The Wasteland Lottery Part 6 (Success!)

And I got me some singles for the other cards, ones I don't have. 

Slivers!

[Legacy] Badlands Legacy Stash Deck 1 (1000th Blog Post)

That's right, this is the 1000th post for this blog. This deck is surprisingly effective, given that it does not have a deep level of play and is composed of a seemingly random selection from my ever-growing Legacy stash. I must say that I think Shadow is the best ability of all of the abilities I have played with Legacy cards so far. Odds are your opponent does not have any critters with Shadow or any good hate against it.

Here is a game that showcases how fast and consistent this deck is.

I can hit for one with my man-land.

My opponent O-Rings one of my Shadow critters.

Here I discard a card to make Putrid Imp a flyer.

Ghitu Slinger for the win.

My opponent has a great board position during the first game of the following match against a Madness deck.

A card not needing an introduction.

Here is the first Fact or Fiction pile selection (I love this card, one of many that prove that Blue is the color of Legacy).

I messed up this pile: gave my opponent the two best cards in one of the piles (what was I thinking?).

Here I lose the first game against an Arrogant Wurm equipped with Umezawa's Jitte.

I win the second game thanks to Shadow critters.

The third game of this match is a blow-out against me thanks to Arrogant Wurm.

Here I lose against Perist critters. Pupeteer Clique takes one my critters to hit me with it.

Neverreading Torment is an interesting card I will have to learn more about. The 'Epic' ability allows my opponent to cast this card turn after turn until I run out of cards.

My opponent plays Engineered Plague, an enchantment that gives -1/-1 to critters of a specific tribe. My opponent chose Warrior, the tribe of Ghitu Encampment (wise choice!).

And here I get milled.
