As locals may already be aware of, Sytupal, who works @ the gathering down on the Cape MA, informed me recently that they will be holding a bring your own creature type tourney. restriction is one must have 25 or more of that creature and no less. Sytpual is planning on playing Djinns and I thought I'd think up some cool creature type to play. Since Sqwerel ain't an option, I thought that it would be cool to play the incincible Angels!!!

Yes, needless to say, Angels would kick, but the problem is that theyre expensive and slow to get out. I know it might be more effective to stampede with elves or goblins but I'm determined to show up with a cool Angel deck. Any ideas on how to make Serra's gang faster and more deadly?

Here's a list of angels (white ones since they kick the most):

Akroma
Angel of Mercy
Angel of Retribution
Angelic Protector
Archangel
Avenging Angel
Blinding Angel
Exalted Angel
Glimmering Angel
Haunted Angel
Herald of Serra
Luminous Angel
Pristine Angel
Reya Dawnbringer
Malesse Spirit
Seraph
Serra Advocate
Silver Seraph
Sustainer of the Realm
Tormented Angel
Voice of All
Voice of Duty
Voice of Grace
Voice of Law
Voice of Reason
Voice of Truth
Warrior Angel
Serra Angel
Wayward Angel

Quite the selection. I think using some fast ones (exalted) in conjunction with invincible beatstiks (pristine) would be utter fun.
Your Thoughts?

Peace Cool

Or you could be a fucking pimp and play Pirates!

//NAME: Untitled Deck
// Spells
        2 Coastal Piracy
        4 Legacy's Allure
        2 Capsize
        2 Treasure Trove
        1 Steal Artifact
// Pirates
        3 Pirate Ship
        2 Rishadan Brigand
        4 Rishadan Footpad
        4 Rishadan Cutpurse
        4 Talas Warrior
        4 Rishadan Airship
        4 Cloud Pirates
// Land
        18 Island
        2 Remote Isle
        4 Rishadan Port

Even the land is in-theme! Technically the Pirate Ship is Creature -- Ship and thus not a pirate, but no self-respecting casual tournament organizer would disqualify you for that.

Djinns would rock the house if nobody decides to pack City in a Bottle or Sulieman's Legacy.  If I were to drive all the way to the cape however I'd definetly be packing the pimpest djinn/efreet deck ever.

Alpha Underground Sea = $200
Alpha Black Lotus = $1000
Knowing that I can build almost any deck in T1 and have it be black bordered. = Priceless

Guys~ as of right now these tournaments are free. so we can get them off the ground. however, would anyone be interested un coming for these tournaments if we were to offer prizes/ entry fee?  Much like the "Artist" format this allows people to take a break from the competition that is type 1 and begin a competitive format that is much different.    


PS:   I also have a Minion deck in the works   Cool

I want to get in on this, but I haven't thought up a suitable creature type yet. In the past, I've played Clerics and Skeletons as casual decks, so I know I can think of something.

I'm sorry, Miss Nanako. Looks like I won't be able to take you to the beach like I promised.

You're right, they'll think of Engineered Plague and Extinction, which are cheaper.

Skullclamp makes the best decks (goblins and elves) that much better. It also helps white. Engineered Plague means playing some horrible creature type like zombies or myr or something.

Zombies aren't bad at all. They're practically playable in T2!
