Anvil/Chains Lock

[Anonymous]

I've been working on a concept for a combo deck involving chains of mephistopheles and anvil of bogarden.

to play the deck, get anvil/chains out asap.  Draw into your squees and gain card advantage.  Kill with rack/zombie infestation.

working deck list as of now:

//NAME: Squee's Chains
// lock
        4 Chains of Mephistopheles
        4 Anvil of Bogardan
// kill
        3 The Rack
        3 Zombie Infestation
        4 Squee, Goblin Nabob
        1 Masticore
// disruption
        4 Duress
        4 Sinkhole
        3 Blackmail
        2 Diabolic Edict
// search
        1 Demonic Tutor
        1 Demonic Consultation
        1 Vampiric Tutor
        1 Necropotence
// mana
        12 Swamp
        4 Dark Ritual
        1 Strip Mine
        1 Black Lotus
        1 Mox Ruby
        1 Mox Jet
        1 Mox Sapphire
        1 Mox Pearl
        1 Mox Emerald
        1 Sol Ring
SB:  2 Masticore
SB:  4 Dystopia
SB:  2 Gloom
SB:  3 Ensnaring Bridge
SB:  1 Feldon's Cane
SB:  3 Tormod's Crypt

I know blackmail is an odd choice, but SO good at 1cc.  Your opponent will try and hold onto the best card that they have while netting 0 cards per draw.  Usually not having many cards left, Blackmail could be an optimal choice.  Again, its still in testing.

Props go out especially to Rico Suave and bebe (i think is his name here on the manadrain.) for input/ideas/support.

thanks,

I would opt to put in bazaar of bagdad as well so you can rifle through your deck and find those precious squees/combo pieces
