Tezzeretless Tezzeret

[Blovdek]

Hi,
please post comments ... In advance this deck is better with DSC over Inkwell as its the decks only win condition. The deck plays mostly instants and it has accumulated knowledge and mana drain, so i dont like ponder in it. I havent tested with the deck much, its just an idea and i would really like it commented and questions asked about my card choices. I was considering playing tezzeret but he is kinda slow and is sometimes win more. Here is the decklist:

Ive tested the deck a bit, and found out Sensei Dvining Top isnt to good for this deck, as it already uses its mana quite good. So ive made a change....

-1 Sensei Divining Top
+1 Misdirection

With only 1 win condition, would it be better to play a single Dark Ritual over the Mana Vault and a Tendrils of Agony over a Thirst for Knowledge since there are 2 draw engines for the deck? It might make the deck more like the old Gifts decks which I always found Tezz to play like in the first place. It would create more of a dependence on Yawg's Will, but both decks weren't that reliant on Will for other decks to bring in graveyard hate to worry about it.

I really dont understand what are you trying to say. Yes i have 1 win condition, but its darksteel colosuss and it keeps comming back if u need to discard it. This deck wants to use its card advantage to find time vault and voltaic key or win with darksteel colosuss. Maybe you are talking about Drain Tendrills deck, but i really dont find that deck to much consistent, as it is harder to storm with tendrills as it is to find 2 pieces in your deck.

This is another option, playing with tezzeret, even though its against the name of the deck .... I have upgraded to 2 win conditions, so now i can play inkwell, which pithcess well to my counters. Ive also removed fact or fiction, as it was the card with small synergy. I have also upgraded both of my bounce spells and now none of them costs 2, so challice on 2 wont wreck the whole deck.
