For my first article on my new and crappy site I figured I'd go with something I'm familiar with. Mostly what I've been playing lately is type two and draft but since everyone is talking draft lately I'll go with my type two deck. It was impressing many despite it's poor win/loss record. It never did get finished to it's full and expensive extent but I think it's hilarious none-the-less. I called the deck, "The Answer"

Land

12 Forests

10 Islands

Creatures

4 Eternal Witness

4 Sakura Tribe-Elder

4 Condescend

4 Mana Leak

2 Rude Awakening

2 Mindslaver

3 Crystal Shard

4 Evacuation

4 Aether Vial

4 Echoing Truth

Side Deck

3 Reap and Sow

3 Molten Rain

3 Stone Rain

3 Creeping Mold

3 Mountain

I never did do too much work on the side deck and I did have cards like Time Stop rotating in and out of the deck. But it was a very witness abusive deck that if it found one, and it did (sensei's, scry) it had evacuation loop with vial cheap and fast. If that didn't work for ya it stalled the game so much that even mindslaver witness loop was possible. Rude Awakening as in many type two green decks was the kill if needed but the sleeper in the deck was crystal shard. I'll chose not to evac go ahead and swing. Ok block with my witness, double kill nope, shard my witness and vial it back it right away. Is it my go yet? I always loved suggestions that I got from other players for it and it was by far the most nausiating deck for opponents to play. The answer was named mainly because it "could" stop any type two deck, it just didn't always. White weenie? Evac. Tooth? Counterspells, land desturct in the side or bounce. Mono Blue control? Shackles had nothing to steal. Try my witness, bounce it. It even owned up against partial mirror matches such as rude awakening. Try swinging with the land. Evacuation, play a land for your turn, discard. I love a good screw job deck. Anyway the deck needed more imput but I wasn't sure where to turn, I'm not playing competitive right now so it doesn't matter but if you like the deck and have an idea for it, post it here when I get a message board up and try the deck yourself. It's not a net deck except witness evacuation is getting alot of talk. So surprise some people, while their confused.
