Subject: The turbo squirrel deck 3rd turn kill!

Hi,
This is my current type 2 deck i'll like to submit onto your homepage :

Combo:

4 Leige of Hollows
4 Ashnod's Altar
3 K. Torch
2 Fireball
3 Squandred Resources
4 Snake basket
4 Natural Balance

Setup

3 Vampiric Tutor
1 Sylvan Library

3 mountains
2 Gemstone Mines
2 Sulf. Springs
1 Swamp
8 Forests
4 City of Brass
3 Karplusan Forest
4 Birds of Paradise
4 Fyndhorn elves 


With a good draw you can do a 20 point torch 3rd turn. My personal best is 
234 point torch on the sixth turn. What you do it :

1st turn : 8cards 

land bird

2nd turn : 7 cards

land tap all 3 altar

3rd turn : 6 cards

land tap all 4, resouces <4cards now> natural balance sace 4 lands 4 mana 
in pool <get 5 lands> tap all five land sac, for 10 mana, tap bird sac to 
altar for 13 mana <2cards in hand> play leige <9mana> sac leige for 2 mana 
make 10 tokens <1 mana in pool 1 card in hand> sac 10 tokens, torch for 
20.

It can do that many times on turns 5-8, when multiple baskets and balances 
hit the table, resulting in huge fireballs/torches. The deck is fast and 
there is 3 ways to do huge damage on turn 3-6, anything longer, you can 
just make tokens and swarm the guy. 

Deck has trouble against counterspell decks, but with a SB based on 
beating them it is easier, just side out balances and resouces and just 
try to swarm him with a few tokens. 

Send critiques to me :)

Thanks
Ivan
