1  Vintage Community Discussion / Casual Forum / [Casual Mutliplayer Powered] Confusion in the Ranks on: April 05, 2013, 08:45:14 am
I wanted to build a Confusion in the Ranks deck, it goes like this :

4   Confusion in the Ranks
4   Mulldrifter
4   Glitterfang
4   Bronze Bombshell
3   Viashino Sandstalker
3   Ingot Chewer
   
4   Blood Moon
4   Browbeat
   
1   Ancestral Recall
1   Brainstorm
1   Time Walk
   
4   Simian Spirit Guide
1   Strip Mine
1   Black Lotus
1   Mana Vault
1   Sol Ring
1   Mana Crypt
1   Mox Ruby
1   Mox Sapphire
1   Mox Pearl
4   Volcanic Island
4   Scalding Tarn
1   Flooded Strand
1   Misty Rainforest
2   Great Furnace
2   Island
1   Mountain

The idea is
- blood moon as disruption (it hits strong most of our decks, and it's also an alternative enchantment target...),
- Mulldrifter +Browbeat to draw
- Confusion pack with Bombshell Glitterfang as reccuring stealing creature, Ingot Chewer (also usefull against null rod)
- Viashino is both aggressive and Confusion compatible, it's almost the only way to kill if Confusion get disenchanted, deglamered, seal of cleansed...

For the manabase :
- Sol Ring, Mana Crypt and Mana Vault are auto include
- I use only 3 mox and 4 SSG because of Null Rod, and also because SSG can steal a creature with confusion in the later game
- Great Furnace => steal land (it can be usefull in my meta)

Any idea / card i've clearly missed or I should think about ?
Thx in advance
2  Eternal Formats / Bazaar-Based Decks / Re: Bazaar Control 2013? on: March 26, 2013, 10:29:22 am
There is a nice list with bazaar / bob here http://www.themanadrain.com/index.php?topic=45124.msg621772#msg621772
But it's an aggro list rather than control...
3  Eternal Formats / Creative / Re: Budget Green on: March 25, 2013, 05:49:43 am
this last one is much more agressive, but also highly rely on bazaar in the starting hand.

The objection on Survival being  do nothing enchantment in a deck with 20 creature doesn't seem strong enough for me.
I like the balanced of the initial proposal between aggression and defense, but between the too decks, the comparison is difficult as they rely on different philosophy...

I suggest changing the manabase to
1    Mox Emerald
1    Mox Jet
1    Black Lotus
6    fech
3    Forest
3    Gaea's Cradle
2    Bayou
3    Ghost Quarter
3    Wasteland
1    Strip Mine

and switch 4 EE to Abrupt Decay wich seems to me much more solid in the match again Oath.
Abrupt Decay can also help the mana denial stratégy.
