Annoying Multiplayer Decks? I was just looking for a place to post this little gem!!!
I had a 90 card deck in the mid-90s that was equal parts land-destruction, hand-destruction (mind twist was not always restricted), counter/control, and direct damage. It was Annoying Deck, for which I apologized before I played somebody with it. It's successors were Son of Annoying Deck, and Annoying Deck 3: This Time it's Personal, etc.
Sunday morning I created Annoying Deck 6: Broken.
Behold:
4 Tundra
2 Underground Sea
1 Tolarian Academy
1 each shiny basic Mirroden land
NINE Moxes
1 Sol Ring
1 Mana Crypt
1 Black Lotus
1 Lion's Eye Diamond
4 Force of Will
2 Mana Drain
2 Ertai's Meddling
1 Last Word
4 Trinket Mages
4 Auriok Salvagers
3 Brainstorm
1 Vampiric Tutor
1 Mystical Tutor
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Serum Visions
1 Timetwister
2 Intuition
1 Swords to Plowshares
1 Gorilla Shaman
1 shiny Orim's Thunder
1 Synod Sanctum
1 Vedalken Orrery
1 Conjurer's Bauble
1 Wayfarer's Bauble
1 shiny Lantern of Insight
1 shiny Future Sight
1 SHARED FATE
The gist of this deck is, if I resolve an Auriok Salvager, and have a Conjuror's Bauble and Lotus/LED, then I have an infinite mana loop, infinite card/deck draw/recycle loop. Then, I can cast Future Sight and Shared Fate, remove all of my opponents card's from the game, PLAY them, then disenchant Shared Fate with Orim's Thunder. On a lucky draw, I can do this turn one (okay, a VERY lucky draw), but with my counter-capability, I can hold off on longer games.
If this deck goes off, and it can, I can play as many cards in my deck as I want, and cycle cards back into the library.
Kismet, Disciple of the Vault and Rule of Law/that blue equivalent card are some permanents that can disrupt this deck, as can Lobotomy-ing my Auriok Salvagers away, but hey, the deck is only two days old.
This is annoying in multiplayer because I get to play with all of my opponents cards.
NOTE: This deck should be studied, in my opinion, because there are lots of great locks in the deck due to Fifth Dawn cards.
On a side note, I beat Neo-Academy 2 times out of 4 with this deck. YAY! (Neo-Academy was my first introduction for Lopsidedly Broken Type 1 Decks. One year later, I finally beat it.)
