Sounds to me like you are just jealous that I have the goods to bring all the Elks calling.

Is that like in nature when the female 'presents'? Are you presenting Eon? *Must warn other elks!*

The possession of said fancy pants is why I don't have to share my horrible, horrible builds.

Pics of the said fancy pants or you don't have them!

noooooo, get a Xbox One and play with Hakeem, all my other friends I like, and Megabeast.

I lawl'd when I read this one. Poor Megabeast!

Sorry Elk.. looks like Eon will be presenting to the PS4 crowd. Stevolutionary is gonna be filling his 'gap' and you'll be stuck with the Steam boys. Look on the bright side.. 2bestest is half decent looking. It's ashame we can't bask in your Glade's heart on the Bone though.. I'll be thinking of only you while I pump my Terra Stomper with Enlarge into Barney's face (he's totally a brown bag special).

So much sexual tension in this thread you could cut it with a knife.

Don't hate on me for being so damn sexy. Not everyone can make the Elks come calling. Either that, or I have a carrot in my pants...

Once he found out you'd share you Knight of the Skyward Eye blowup doll with him.. his (glade)heart was yours forever.

Lockhammer: Didn't know you were a member of the Bone Brigade.. I'll add you now, and hit you up after I get back from my trip.

Wanted to try and build a fairy deck. Not many cards that fit that archetype here, but it is very successful at annoying your opponent to death.

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

Fairies

A deck for Magic 2015.

Really love Warden of Evos Isle in this deck! Seems most people only want to use it to get a fattie out 1 turn earlier.. But the synergy it has with several small creatures, especially with flash, is absolutely amazing. The more creatures you can bounce and cast, the more mana discount does he end up providing. Warden + Quickling + Pestermite = alot of annoyance :P

Played it 6 times. Had 4 rage quitters because of the tap/bounce amount. I imagine it sucks to play against. It's hella fun to play though, even if the win-cons (besides Talrand) are meh. Cool pile.

You need to play colored permanents in order to take advantage of devotion and there are only eight in your deck. If you want to abuse Master of Waves, look at Cloudshift.

that's why i have the mercurial pretender, insanely expensive but whatever i gave this deck like 15 minutes of thought. it works but it's far from super-hyper strong or anything like that. it can potentially win against almost any type of deck.

i also don't want to go into white because it's BLUE devotion! :p

Well we've got to be at least a little polite. You wouldn't want to hear what we REALLY think now would you?

I'm not sure what it is, but the avatar always reminds me of a work joke that used cats as references. I found this which has the same cats in it but someone has obviously put their own spin on it (w/ music!).

Still, I see 2best as a cat now bopping his head to and fro..muahaha!

Hi - Put together a blue deck (premium for the one card Vapor Snag). It has a good early defense Kraken Hatchling, Maritime Guard and Brackwater Elemental. The damage is dealt in air with Cloudfin Raptor.
Niblis of the Breath does a good job keeping big creatures at bay. Opening hand I'd like to see Cloudfin Raptor and Ior Ruin Expedition. The downside is getting stuck with Kraken Hatchling, with that am thinking about switching out a couple of cards for Switchero.

you don't need to say premium... all cards are unlockable just by playing the game...

I'm now at 21 lands, which should give us the first 3 lands about 90% of games.
The deck can still operate if it misses one or two lands, but can't draw too many when going off with enchantments as most cards are low impact.

The idea is to stay ahead on tempo using cheap bounce spells and Pestermite and then recoup the lost card advantage with Military Intelligence and Bident of Thassa with our evasive threats and also with Scroll Thief, which goes well with the bounce/Pestermite plan.

The biggest threats are Cloudfin Raptor, Chasm Skulker and Master of Waves,
which is insane in these types of decks (the dream is playing him with Hall of Triumph in play).

Kraken Hatchling is an extra Military enabler and evolves Raptors nicely. Also a good card to pick up with Quickling.

The "removal spell" of choice is Nullify, which is great with all the instant speed plays the decks has and also goes well with bounce spells.
Dissolve is just a little too pricey.

Legend I like the list for the most part. Not an archetype I play much, that said I haven't seen nullify in any of the previous lists posted, which is surprising because it would seem to work well here.

One card that puzzles me is scroll thief. If you want a 1/3 blocker maritime guard is cheaper. I don't see how you can expect to get damage through without any (ok one) pump effects and with only 4 bounce effects.
