Hello everyone, I want to play a new deck. At the moment I have three vintage decks:
Raffinity: (my nr 1 deck)
Mana: 23
4 Great Furnace
4 Glimmervoid
4 Ancient Tomb
4 Tree of Tales
3 Gaea’s Cradle
R Tolarian Academy
R Lotus Petal
R Sol Ring
R Mana Vault
creatures:
4 Myr Enforcer
4 Arcbound Ravager
4 Arcbound Worker
4 Frogmite
4 Myr Moonvessel
3 Atog
other spells:
4 Skullclamp
4 Berserk
4 Fling
R Memory Jar
R Wheel of Fortune
The deck is quite obvious, it wins by a berserked ravager or atog, after that attack you can fling it for the kill. The deck plays nice and is quite consistend, most of the time t4 kill.
Elfball: (when I started with magic I had an elf deck, it thought it was fun to upgrade it to T1 elfball)
Manabase: 20
2 Forest
4 Taiga
4 Land Grant
4 Wooded Foothills
3 Maze of Ith
1 Gaea's Cradle (other cradle's are in the deck above)
R Channel
R Crop Rotation
Cretures: 22
3 Argothian Elder
4 Fyndhorn Elves
4 Llanowar Elves
4 Priest of Titania
3 Birchlore rangers
4 Quirion Ranger
Other spells: 18
4 mass hysteria
2 volcanic geyser
4 ghitu fire
4 Living Wish
4 Slate of Ancestry
SB
1 argothian elder
1 maze of ith
1 volcanic geyser
4 hull breach
4 gaea's herhald
4 overmaster
The deck wins by a massive ghitu fire or volcanic geyser, to get enough mana you use the maze and elder combo or just generate enough with the other elfes.
This deck is just for fun but it has some good (read somewhat expensive) cards in it, and it actually is quite strong combered to my friends deck's
blackdragon.dec:
18 swamp
1 lotus petal
1 chrome mox
1 mox diamond
4 dark ritual
2 cabal ritual
Combo:
2 worldgorger dragon
2 ambassador laquatus
2 caller of the claw
4 animate dead
4 dance of the dead
2 necromancy
4 buried alive
disruption:
2 duress
4 unmask
Tutor:
1 demonic tutor
1 vampiric tutor
1 demonic consultation
3 spoils of the vault
1 necropotence
well, this deck also needs no explanation, its actually the reason I make this post because after I made this deck I realize that the other two, even my rafiinity what I thought was really good, totally suck.
This deck is cheaper then my raffinity deck, it wins most of the time at T3 and it has disruption to protect itself, what is there not to like
.
My question to you guys is, what is a good (budget) vintage deck for me to make?
I am planning to dismantle the first two decks and trade for cards to make my dragon deck better and I want to build a new deck.
After looking around I came to conclusion that Hulk smash and FCG would be good choices, because I already have the berserk's for hulk smash (and I would like to play a control deck) and I have the complete mana base for FCG.
I know FCG is a really good budget deck, but is a budget hulk smash viable? (my meta is not really powered, a few moxen and lotuses)
I also read something about Sensei-Sensei, is that deck viable?
Because I would prefer to make a control deck I also want to ask what are viable control deck's on a budget?
Other ideas for budget decks are also welcome.
Already thanks for the help
