[Standard] Battle Cruiser Cube: Grixis Eldrazi

Devoid is definitely parasitic, but so is every tribal deck and Infect. This is not a big deal. Here is an all-Devoid deck for the Battle Cruiser Cube.

Here are a couple of Kittens vs Tigers losses. The first one was against a powerful Abzan deck. The best I could do was pull off an exile out of Titan's Presence.

This deck is fun for kitchen table, and not so fun against powered up decks like the one I faced here. Still, if all I want to do is play these cards in real life at my kitchen table, its a fine deck.

[Modern] Battle Cruiser Cube: White Blue Humans

Here is the link to the earlier version of this deck.

This is a slightly toned down version. Its a fun deck.

Here I get rid of an enchantment using Holy Justiciar's ability.

And after a board wipe I am able to get my creatures from the graveyard to the battlefield using Angel of Glory's Rise.

Here is the result.

Here my opponent may not have done the math, because I was able to swarm for a near win and then won the next turn.

Here is another win. My army did not get wiped out and I had a flyer and my opponent did not.

Here I win against a Black Vise deck. 

I was able to survive multiple board wipes (Damnation).

And my opponent gave up as I was about to cast Angel of Glory's Rise.

Legendary Cube Prize Packs

Just a little lottery fun, no major pulls.

Tenth Edition Completion Online

Packs of Tenth Edition online have gone down to $1.50. I have bought specific cards for specific decks before, but no booster packs. The set has 110 commons, 110 uncommons, and 110 rares, which means that even if the packs become very cheap the probability of opening the most expensive rare, Crucible of Worlds, is not great. Here are my commons.

Here are the uncommons.

Here are the rares.

The average value for Modern packs is terrible. Buying singles is still the way to go.

[Modern] Brutal Hordechief/Hellrider Retooled

This deck uses Goblins to trigger many instances of damage for 1 with Brutal Horderchief and Hellrider. Krenko is our Goblin maker. Here is the deck, now with a retooled manabase.

I played against a very interesting very large deck (400+ cards). Large decks can choke, and this one did. I won both matches 2-0.

In this game I was able to make a zillion tokens with Krenko.

In this game I am just about to start making Goblins.

Look at all those attack triggers!

I also played against a Living End Cycling deck. Here my opponent plays Violent Outburst.

And then Living End.

Here is what comes out to the battlefield.

I lost that first game. In the second game, I am able to pick out Living End with Inquisition of Kozilek.

I am close to winning but I opponent was eventually able to trigger off a second Living End.

I almost lost, but then I landed a Chandra's Phoenix (which has Flying and Haste) and could finally win with a Lightning Bolt.

In the third game I used Rakdos Charm to exile my opponent's graveyard.

And the forced play of their graveyard didn't seem game-winning.

But even after I removed two of those creatures with Lightning Bolts, my opponent played Demonic Dread and I could not block. I lost...
