1  Eternal Formats / Creative / Please help me with the Oath deck. (T1 in my area soon) on: June 09, 2005, 09:52:21 am
I have an unpowered, semi-budgeted, Oath deck for T1. And I need help with some mechanical problems.  I'd prefer it if it stay two colors (U/G).  The deck does suprisingly well in T1 powered fields (final 2 every time)... any help is appreciated.

Here is the deck:

2 Tropical Island
4 Flooded Strand
2 Forest
12 Island
4 Forbidden Orchard
--------------------------24 Land
1 Akroma, Angel of Wrath
1 Spirit of the Night
--------------------------2 Creatures
4 Force of Will
3 Intuition
4 Counterspell
2 Misdirection (might switch for either stifle or Living Wish)
3 Naturalize (trust me, helps)
3 Mana Leak
4 Brainstorm
4 Accumulated Knowledge
2 Gaea's blessing (awsome)
1 Gush
-------------------------30 Spells
4 Oath of Druids
-------------------------4 Enchantment

Thank you for your time.

You dont need a set of Mana Drains for the Oath deck.  What can you spend all that mana on without taking alot of mana burn?  What you also need is to run something to get your creatures back (i.e. Living Wish) because STP (swords to plowshares) wrecks this deck, trust me, I was there. (lost AT LEAST 10 tournaments because of that darn thing).  Either that or run stuff in the mainboard that cannot be target (i.e. the iridescent angel in the SB) or switch them in. Thats the best I can do.  OAth is one of the better decks for T1 because you dont really need alot of money to be good, unless your goin overboard.  Also, I would eliminate the Lotus petal (you need permanent mana in control i.e. sol ring or mana vault) and the black and keep it two colors. This will ensure no mana-screw. Hope this helps.
