Actually, fling could work well with the Enigma Drake deck I posted, the way I see it, making a 10+/4 Drake hasty isn't very hard and from there a Fling would do the trick.

On another note, there's a long forgotten card I've been thinking about but haven't found the best way or deck to use it in yet: Sanitarium Skeleton. The idea is get maximum value out of all the Discard/loot effects in the new set. This card is by far the easiest recurrable way to get a card back to your hand from the graveyard and its Instant speed. At worst, its a 1-drop chumper. The card isn't meant for a lightning fast blitz deck, but a more value orientated mid-range/controlish deck.
Could be for a haunted-dead/prized amalgam/ gy recurring deck, with extra Discard/madness thrown in. Could also be a recurrable creature to sac for the black god... Any other ideas?

I want to revisit Crats with Bontu this set. No idea if Orzhov, Golgari or Abzan.

Grixis Crats would be fascinating.

I think Abzan, maybe. I wish we could do it with Zombies. Hmmm... maybe. There are just not maybe Zombies you want to kill all the time. In Abzan, I'd still consider the old eldrazi sub theme, and if I did, we really haven't gained anything for the deck other than Bontu. :-/

So fun little interaction: turns out that if your creature ETB's and puts -1/-1 counters on things, you can target Glyph Keeper with the counters, and GK will counter the effect. Probably not the greatest combo ever, but it's still a decent interaction.

AI uses that a lot. Speaking of AI, it seems a lot stronger now that it doesn't have Crew futzing it up, tho it def isn't very bright with Exert. But its been using more interactive cards like counters, sweeps, and spot removal.

I'd like Insult/Injury for my Thermo grinding deck. Seems perfect for Thermos, esp in 2HG.

Thought this might become a fun thread...

Anyway, first up: Insult // Injury in a prowess deck. Oh boy.

Insult to Injury is so much fun, but makes me miss Skullcrack so we could do cool tricks like this.

Lol, that's one of the worst and best things I've ever read, at the same time.

Also, welcome back! Been too long man.

Yeah, and I'm way behind on acquiring cards, lol. Keep trying to build decks and missing key cards. And thanks.

If you need a grinding deck, let me know. I've built a few that just rip through the AI super fast - for when you just want to collect (don't mind the occasional reset), and don't feel like a challenge or doing anything original.

it doesn't have Crew futzing it up
