Getting rid of recursion things. Atleast 1/3 of the games I play against now are them.

This deck tries to focus on just that (changed from the original Orhzov build with suggestions - thanks to those that did, by the way).

:') it's so absurd that a deck like this needs to exist because the meta was so violently shifted by sultai soothsayer

They were already good.. but Soothsayer was the cherry on top of the sundae. It's just another fad in the meta.. it'll fade once folks get tired of it. Soothsayer was a good addition to the pool IMO.. Young Pyromancer on the other hand.. that one could've been left out.

Honestly, I'd think the 4 Edits are all you really need. The rest could have been almost anything, IMO. Maybe one suffer the past?

Those decks die hard to even one exiled Seance - two would clearly be GG. I guess this one works against SS decks too, so perhaps all three suffers, but I'd be wary of being too weak against other options.

Two Suffer the Past in your hand is just awful. Just as bad as two Hall of Triumph , Talrand or Bident of Thasa. If I run it.. I only run it as a singleton

Yeah, but those other three - at least - are great enough in the decks that are designed to use them to take the risk of the rare bad draw. Suffer has no such value, IMO.

I'm with you here - 1 suffer is probably enough.

Might be better that way:

-1 Suffer the Past
-1 Angelic Edict

+1 Stormbreath Dragon
+1 Inferno Titan?

There were some things wrong with it in general. I will keep all of this in mind in my next recordings. I still gotta figure out why the game volume wasn't recorded still.

I'd keep the edict, but -2 suffer, +1 Dragon and Titan might make sense, but IMO the deck is already way over curve. 16 4CMC+ cards is too many, imo.

edit: nevermind. I counted that wrong. sorry.

But, putting in Dragon and Titan for suffer would be too many, IMO.

Well the mana requirements are pretty harsh here. It might be nice to tone them down. Not sure if ingots are the answer, or simply getting rid of either the RR or BB cards, and replacing them. Might be a good candidate for Armillary Sphere. :-PPPPPPPPPP

j/k btw Sphere would not help here.

Soooo, long time lurker first time *guy who gets his deck impaled in front of others*, I liked the ideas of some of these Mardu decks, but I couldn't find one that was really my style. So i kinda mishmashed ideas that I liked and somewhat done my own shiz.

[manapie 90 w -u b r -g][/manapie]

Unadulterated Self-Abuse

A deck for Magic 2015.

60 Cards (19 :creature: , 18 :instant: , 23 :land:)

Cost 7 cards

So fairly basic ramp dealy, with the goal of getting a lot of mana and counteracting with bombs mid-late. I really like cloudshift with a bunch of ETB draw effects because it gets to be super versatile as either protection from single target removal, combat shenanigans, or as a one mana draw, which is cool. I figured I needed to sustain myself a l'il bit with all my self-abuse for profit cards like rager and muse, but I really don't like tribute to hunger because I feel that if I'm in a situation where I desperately need to heal I'm not gonna get it from tributing some random aggro guy's board to gain 1 health and kill a token. I'd rather just preemptively heal for 4 (maybe more with cloud if I need it while also using it to freely block an attack) and have a body early. Also opens ups the 3 spot for some Auger Sprees.

K so you know kinda what I want to do with it, can you guys tell me how badly I'm actually doing it? I'm really awkward with mana (I try slant a bit more towards white early to get my two drops but idk), and I'm not too sure if I like it yet, so I'd appreciate anything that I can get.

did u consider to play séance? U play a lot of ETB-critters, so u can get a lot more value out of your early-game creatures also without sheodred...

first off welcome and the only change I would make is the lone missionaries, I would probably cut for resounding thunder (and switch all of your gates to tri-lands of course) but other wise it looks like a pretty solid list to me

@phalgast: I was thinking about it, but since Mardu has no reliable way to pitch, I feel there isn't enough consistency for the seance

@Bassonist: But in that case wouldn't I be suffocating myself with my ramp only looking for a Baneslayer to save me if an aggro deck gets the jump (yes there's an ungodly amount of removal if I added thunder but idk)
