Why test a card that has been ruled too terrible to use in the type II version of the deck here?


Because there is far less aggro in this environment.
The Chamber really helps against control as we gain free clamp fodder and in matches against Fish and other random aggro I can just play combat damage games by moving my Ravager's counter to an unchecked Myr.

The entire Tinker+Memory Jar thing really hurts more than it helps. I know that in theory it would make the deck better since it allows more drawing and thus more free threats but it is a much faster and overall better deck if you include multiple Genesis Chambers instead. The same goes for Pentavus which I also think should be a Genesis Chamber. The card is amazing in this deck and no matter when it comes out it will be an active threat since we are always drawing into more creatures.

Well after playing Long.dec a while back and having it get raped by the B/R List update I decided to build another deck. After Regionals I acquired the rest of the cards I needed to build a cheap build of Trinistax. I'm not too sure on what to SB or even how to. I know...that's sad.Embarassed

Anyway, I know that Slavery decks are big right now and this deck seems to handle it alright. I've only played about twenty games against it but those were all without sideboarding.

Here is my current list.

Critters
4 Goblin Welder
1 Triskelion
Win
1 Karn, Silver Golem
Locks
3 Chalice of the Void
4 Sphere of Resistance
4 Tangle Wire
4 Trinisphere
4 Smokestack
Draw
2 Grafted Skullcap
3 Meditate
1 Wheel of Fortune
1 Tinker
1 Memory Jar
Mana Sources
4 Metalworker
1 Black Lotus*
1 Lotus Petal
1 Mana Crypt
1 Mana Vault
1 Sol Ring
1 Grim Monolith
1 Strip Mine
2 Wasteland
1 Tolarian Academy
4 Mishra's Workshop*
2 Mountain
2 Ancient Tomb
2 Shivan Reef
4 Volcanic Island

Sideboard
4 Red Elemental Blast
3 Tormod's Crypt
3 Powder Keg
2 Platinum Angel
2 Gorilla Shaman

I know the list is at 61 cards right now. I'm not sure which card to cut.
I'd be really appreciative of any advice.

Any suggestions?

*For Five Proxy Tournaments.

...and we got nothin'.

Thanks a bunch guys.
Double post merged.

I didn't pick up too much. I did manage to get a set of nice Volcanics,
a set of Sphere of Resistance, and some other minor stuff though.

@johnstown713: How did you do in Regionals?
