This is just a deck that I've been considering, wondering how it'd fair in the Vintage world filled with decks list Meandeck Oath, Control Slaver, 4cC, and other monstronsities. Taking all ideas on it.
Creatures: 22 2x Exalted Angel 4x Nimble Mongoose 4x Troll Ascetic 4x Mystic Snake 4x Blurred Mongoose 3x Eternal Witness
Draw/Control: 15 Gush 4x Brainstorm Ancestral Recall 3x Swords to Plowshares 4x Force of Will 4x Mana Drain Balance
Other: 7 Regrowth Time Walk 4x Land Grant Timetwister
Land: 18 Black Lotus Mox Emerald Mox Pearl Mox Sapphire 2x Tropical Island 3x Tundra 4x Flooded Strand 3x Forest 1x Island 1x Plains
Total: 62 cards
Sideboard: 3x Echoing Truth 3x Echoing Ruin 3x Oxidize 3x Beserk 3x Ground Seal
AS you can see, it looks pretty bad. But as I stated, it's throw together idea, took my like 10 mins to think of this list. Lets see what it's made of. Explainations: Exalted Angel- It's a nice card, most ppl dont' like seeing her. Works great if your facing another aggro deck. Nimble Mongoose- Cheap, gets bigger with your graveyard, can't be targeted. Troll Ascetic- They can't target him, he's a good beater. Mystic Snake- Counter creature, helps with beating. Blurred Mongoose- can't be countered, cheap, untargetable. Eternal Witness- Every green deck should run her. Gush- Popular rise of Crucible/Strip means a maindeck of Gush and it's drawing power. Regrowth- Same as Eternal Witness. Balance- Your hand should empty fast, and this deck doesn't run as much land as most. Specially if their stripping you with Crucible help. Only drawback, you should have more creatures then them. Brainstorm- Duh Force of Will- Bigger duh Swords- Answer to welders and other annoyances. Mana Drains: Considering about cutting, nothing to use the drained man a towards.
Sideboard: this needs the most help,if any. Right now, I only have it as Artifact and Welder deck hate.
Was considering Skullclamp for some drawing power, but that card hasn't been very helpful in T1 lately.
Haven't play tested either, which is probably the biggest draw back, but thought I'd ask everyone's opinion about it before it was built. Thanks.
