well, this is mi first post in the forum (i registered only for this topic, I love Pox a lot).
First of all, sorry by my english (I'm from spain). I try to explain my version of pox...
Pox is a card that destroys hand, life and lands, and leave as a job to the oponent restore his hand and lands. My version of pox deck try to make harder to do it. First the deck list (this was the first version, i can't find a more updated version :_( ):
// Mana and acceleration
18 x Swamp
3 x Wasteland
1 x StripMine
4 x Dark Ritual
1 x Sol ring
// Disruption: discard, mana denial...
4 x Duress
4 x Hymn to tourach
4 x Sinkhole
// Restricted cards
1 x Demonic Tutor
1 x Yawgmoth's Will
1 x Entomb
// THE card
4 x Pox
// Win conditions
2 x Nether spirit
3 x Cursed Scroll
4 x The Rack
4 x Ankh of Mishra
// Utility: versus zuran, etc.
1 x Powder Keg
And now some explanation of the cards choice.
Ankh of Mishra: some people say that is a contradiction with the use of the rack, but makes a lock to the oponent. And with the use/abuse of the fetchlands it's very powerfull, and oponent's life will decrease very quickly. I recomend to test.
Entomb: it's a virtual third nether. Most people don't counter entomb waiting for counter the reanimation spell
Powder Keg: lossing to a parfait by zuran makes me think about.
This is all for now (I'm at work, jejeje).
