Subject: [Strategy] Extended-Altar'tog Date: 16 Dec 1997 06:29:38 GMT From: "Jody Fulghum" Newsgroups: rec.games.trading-cards.magic.strategy This deck I played at the last PTQ I attended. It did well and performed reliably. Unfortunately, like a moron, I neglected to sideboard against white and lost out to karma. Blah. What are your ideas, folks? 4 Circling Vultures 4 Fledgling Djinn 4 Dauthi Horror 4 Dauthi Slayer 4 Hidden Horror 4 Necratog 4 Crypt Rat 4 Altar of Dimensia 4 Tombstone Stairwell 4 Quicksand 4 Dark Ritual 16 Swamps /sideboard 4 Dystopia/Gloom (defend against white) 4 Glacial Chasm (great vs sligh/bolt happy decks) 4 Hymn to Tourach (best shot against Blue or Armor Decks) 3 Diabolic Edict (This is my choice against Empyrial Armor decks) Thjs deck is fast, deadly and has the convenience of several built-in combo strategies. If the altar and stairwell hit the board and stay, your opponent will die in fewer than 3 turns.
