CONTINUING TO MARDU

So I took it upon myself (since I got no help from anyone) to make a complete the mardu limited deck into a 60 card standard deck with the rest of the khans of tarkir cards. Took only a very few cards out but adding quite a few in since it needs enough to make it a 60 card deck.

I tested it out a few time and it seems like I have one problem with the deck so far, mana. I have 26 of them in there, maybe it’s 2 to many, but if I take two away then I’m going to need to add two more spells (meaning creatures and other permanents) to keep it at the 60 card count. I could get rid of one duel land and the lands I have in the deck already would make up for it, or maybe not.

I’m considering maybe moving away from the idea of keeping it as a khans only deck and add in cards from the theros block. I feel like a lot of card in the theros block could fit very well with the khans cards, maybe changing the whole deck entirely into making it around the surkhan, the dragon speaker Planeswalker card. I believe I do have a lot of dragon cards that are still standard I can use for it. But reality is I want to keep it a mardu deck.

Game day is coming up next weekend on the 19th of October. I would really like to make this deck as good as possible to get a higher win than I got from the last game day I did placing 5th out of 16 players, or maybe I can go with my other sliver deck that is standard to the event. Who knows what I will decide when the day comes.  I really want this mardu deck to work for me and I like the new clans and wedges to mess around with. Here’s my 60 card mardu deck, click here to see for yourself and test it out to see what you think could be a good addition to the deck. Any suggestions and advice is welcomed.

What do you plan on bringing to game day? And standard deck you already have or a newly brewed deck from khans of tarkir?

M-15 PRERELEASE

Here we are again with another prerelease weekend for the newest core set M-15 which starts tonight Friday at midnight (which technically is Saturday) July 12, 2014. When you join the prerelease you will chose a color. You'll receive a Prerelease kit with five (5) M15 booster packs, one (1) special "seeded" booster pack loaded with cards in the color you chose, a spindown die, an exclusive foil promo that can be used in your sealed deck, and a Garruk the Slayer Challenge card for players to get involved with the "Hunt Bigger Game" contest.

As for the hunt bigger games contest, it looks to me that you can win a nerf Garruk axe and the duel of the Planeswalker online game, although I’m not 100% sure since searching for this info just leads me to enter the contest pages, and if you snap a photo of yourself being the victim or the victor with the cardboard cut out of Garruk to facebook using the hashtag #huntbiggergame in the image caption and then complete and submit an entry form for your chance to win, and both victors and victims can win.

I think if I were going to my LGS prerelease I think I would pic green for my color of choice. But since I am very broke (sucks to be a grown up) I won’t be able to go one of the prerelease event. But I have chosen red, and white at the previous prereleases and I wonder if green would do me any better.

What color would you choose for your prerelease?
