That's right. Usually by third turn when scrolling becomes an option, this deck has at least four creatures on the board. A lotus petal, a mox or a ritual is always a first turn creature, often two. If this deck doesn't win by the fifth or sixth turn it will usually decline, but sometimes win. The Simularcram is the most surprising card. Although often it will just sit in your hand, if they try to surprise you you'll be ready for it. The sideboard is good against white (disenchants). The urborg justices remove the annoying pro-black creatures. The Bubble Matrixes and Foliages work well against sly. The Foliages also slow down bounce decks. The Ashes to Ashes can kill black creatures to slow down the other suicide decks (the paralyzes do that also). Disenchants can go straight into the deck but usually it isn't necessary during the first game of a match. E-mail me with questions Adamfortuna@hotmail.com
