Droping Meddling Mage on Force of Will can be so clutch, in late game.

Mostly red decks focus around just "burning" people out. This variation focuses around playing creatures and using them to burn your opponent with either Soul's Fire or Fling. This is a casual deck so be gentle. This is what the deck consists of.

4 Pandemonium
4 Fling
4 Soul's Fire
4 Lightening Bolt
4 Incinerate
4 Spark Elemental
4 Ball Lightning
4 Hellspark Elemental
4 Seething Song
4 Desperate Ritual
4 Rite of Flame

Alright let me know what ya think about it.

Hello everyone,
The idea of "Lock Down" is to basically not let them do anything at all except draw, because that is my kill. This deck is made for Multiplayer games, there are usually 6-8 players in the games. We follow all vintage rules, these are our "rules", spells go two people deep, you can attack left or right, you cannot split attack (attack both ways) and everyone draws eight cards to begin the game, last man standing wins.

Lock Cards:

4 Ghostly Prison
4 Propaganda
2 Meekstone
2 Winter Orb
3 Frozen Aether

Draw them out/mill:

4 Howling Mine
4 Font of Mythos
1 Timetwister
1 Time Spiral
4 Hedron Crab

Clear Board:

2 Armageddon
2 Wrath of God
1 Balance

Random Abilities:

2 Tormod's Crypt
1 Relic Of Progenitus
1 Feldon's Cane
1 Greater Auramancy

4 Flooded Strand
4 Plains
3 Island



Any input would be appriciated. I need to cut cards down to 60 so if you think anything is useless or not needed just let me know. Thanks.

I slimed down the creature base to creatures that have a use ability, are just an over all threat to my opponent(s), something very controlling, or hasty. I also cut the merfolk looters for the careful study and I switched out the buried alives for entomb. If you have any more imput it would be greatly appreciated.
