Title: Deck that would suit me? (make me a deck)
Post by: Blisstake on January 22, 2014, 02:22:50 PM: Im looking for a deck that would fit under these conditions (or close as possible):

60% offensive, 20% defensive, 20% reactive

Strong cards, but some that can rebound very easily

Somewhat of a mill deck

Includes philosphy

Complexity does not matter

somewhat of basic cards or just easy to get

Somewhere around 70 cards

Include special ability Lost Souls that would fit with it

Other tournament winning decks (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/complete-decks/)

Basically look for any deck that is for "T1 2P" as that is the main category that you will want to start with. Obviously the older decks from past years don't include the newest cards, but you can always take a Nationals winning deck from 2008 and "update" it with newer cards.

Mill decks would have evil gold for the defense, with cards like Huge Egyptian, Queen Tahpenes, or Given Over To Egypt. Also, to make this work better, throw in Luke/John heroes as well that can force your opponent to run out of cards via draw or other effects.
