Mike Long Suicide Virus

[jcb193]

I was reading one of Mike Long's auctions on ebay and came across the following:

Bonus 4: SUICIDE VIRUS TYPE I

(New Top Secret Type I Deck Is Practically Guaranteed

To Get At LEAST 1 Card BANNED or RESTRICTED In Type I!)



About a year ago I revealed Long.dec, a brand new Type I deck, upon the Magic world. The result? Three cards, Minds Desire, Burning Wish AND Lions Eye Diamond, were deemed TOO POWERFUL for Type I play by the Duelist Convocation International, and were RESTRICTED!


Now you are getting the chance to find out about my latest Type I (Vintage) creation, Suicide Virus Version Type I. This BRAND NEW deck acts with mechanized efficiency to wipe out your opponent, usually in 3-4 turns (and very often less!).


You can not play Type I without being aware of this TOP SECRET deck list.

And then i found a decklist:

1 Mox Emerald
1 Mox Sapphire

[Hi-Val]

If you use the search function in the upper right hand of the screen, you'll find a couple threads where it's been discussed already.

[Whatever Works]

Conclussion from those threads:

Its an awful deck thats to slow with a cool concept that fails to be substantial

[jcb193]

I searched for it for 10 min (using "mike long" and also "suicide virus").  I apologize for wasting your time.  I appreciate the elementary lesson on finding the search button.

[Hi-Val]

I could've SWORN we'd talked about it...

Here it is: http://www.themanadrain.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=20337&highlight=suicide+virus

The title wasn't related to your search terms, so that's probably why it didn't show up.

If I came off as pithy, I apologize.

Guaranteed my ass. He's thinking Das Klamp will get restricted? Not a chance in Hell.

Not a chance in Hell.

Great job on the links!
