Changes:
I am thinking of playing Nights Whisper in my deck instead of Accumulated Knowledge, but Nights Whisper is a sorcery and it coasts you 2 life each time it is played and Accumulated Knowledge coasts you 0 life.

I also wanted to play 2 more impulse instead of the 2 remaining brainstorm in the deck. I think that Impulse is a better choise because the cards don't go back ontop of your deck, but on the other hand you can only chose 1 of the cards from the 4 that you pick up and put it into your hand.

Reply if you think these changes should improve my deck or if you have an idea that will improve it . You can also email me if you need some more information on my changes.

Here's an idea: check out the other threads on GAT. Moved to newbie.

[Moxlotus]

Why would you play Impulse over Brainstorm?
Impulse-2 mana, 0 card advantage
Brainstorm- 1 mana, 0 CA but great with Fetch, hide cards from duress

If you play with AK you almost autolose to Tog, Whispers is so much better.  Also the first AK always sucks to play.

I would also try to fit in at least 1 if not 2 more fetchlands to abuse Brainstorm even more.

[Gandalf_The_White_1]

Ak is really weak without intuition.  It's either you focus on the drain+ak/intution engine, which sucks against tog and is reactive to set up, or you focus on night's whisper as the main card advantage engine, which is easily useable without drain.  It's basically a choice between a more classic build of GAT vs the new suicide GAT builds.  I would go the whispers route, personally.  It lends more of an aggro/combo feel to the deck.

[Frappie]

If your meta is really aggro heavy then switching to whisper may be a bad idea the loss of life could easily be deadly. However if Tog is heavily played in your meta then I would go with the whisper. Against aggro I would keep the AK, it may be weak w/o the intuition, but it does not kill you for card drawing.

for a more solid gat build that just smashes face i would make the following changes. take these out...

Deleted horrible salvager list

there. your gat is 100% better!

'Jokes' like these are not appreciated. 'Take out all your cards and replace them with deck X' is neither original nor funny. Either discuss the subject at hand or keep your mouth shut. - Bram

Wow. I think the WTF department just found a new member. The guy talks about GAT then out of nowhere, without any explanation or anything, you crank out yet another slapjack decklist. Theres simply no point to it. I will report your post for sure.

...and speaking of 'the subject at hand': about a million threads on this very topic exist elsewhere on the site. For the four billionth time: the search button is TECH!
