Default D. M. Zork's Deck Gallery! 4 T2 Decks - Dragon, Beast, and more! Please r/f!

With help from The Zealotpker, I've tweaked the designs for a couple of decks I'd like to make. All the decks are T2 except for the B.F.M. deck, which isn't Tournament Legal anyway because it uses Unglued cards (although it follows every other rule). I'm still fairly new to this game, although I am learning, so the decks aren't perfect. Please help me improve them!

Here they are:


«·´`·.(*·.¸(`·.¸¸.·´)¸.·*).·´`·»
«·´`·.(*·.¸(`·.¸ Dragon Genesis ¸.·´)¸.·*).·´`·»
«·´`·.(*·.¸(`·.¸¸.·´)¸.·*).·´`·»

8x Swamp
6x Mountain
4x Urborg Volcano
4x Bloodstained Mire
2x Crosis' Catacombs

24 Land

4x Patriarch's Bidding
4x Zombify
4x Buried Alive
4x Entomb
4x Night's Whisper
4x Necrogen Spellbomb
2x Wretch Mind

26 Spells

4x Rorix Bladewing
4x Bladewing the Risen
2x Crosis, the Purger

10 Creatures

Sideboard: 15
4x Imperial Hellkite
4x Dragonspeaker Shaman
2x Darigaaz, the Igniter
2x Darigaaz's Caldera
2x Wretch Mind
1x Mirari

This deck is just about getting my strong Dragons into the Graveyard from either my Library or Hand, then regenerating them. This is the deck I want to make the most; help me tweak it and make it invincible!

EDIT: Added Bloodstained Mire, Necrogen Spellbomb, and Night's Whisper for speed. Also updated the Side Deck to utilize different Dragons, and made a few other small changes. How does it look now?

4x Elfhame Palace
4x Krosan Verge
6x Plains
10x Forest

24 Land

4x Ferocious Charge
4x Naturalize
4x Swords to Plowshares
4x Mirari's Wake

4x Birds of Paradise
4x Krosan Warchief
4x Anurid Brushopper
4x Brontherium
2x Titanic Bulvox
2x Krosan Cloudscraper

20 Creatures

Sideboard: 15
4x Branchsnap Lorian
4x Wrath of God
2x Armageddon
2x Aura Shards
2x Krosan Groundshaker
1x Mirari

This is a Beast Deck which is designed to tap into the Mana - Accelerating power of Mirari's Wake in order to let me play high - cost Beast creatures easily, and then run over my opponent with Trample. This is the deck I am closest to completing, so all advice is appreciated.

2x Treva's Ruins
4x Krosan Verge
4x Flooded Strand
4x Elfhame Palace
4x Skycloud Expanse
4x Island
4x Plains
4x Forest

30 Land

4x Mirari's Wake
4x Wrath of God
4x Beacon of Immortality
4x Deep Analysis
4x Compulsion
2x Treva's Charm

22 Spells

4x Treva, the Renewer
4x Captain Sisay

8 Creatures

Sideboard: 15
4x Moment's Peace
2x Treva's Ruins
2x Treva's Charm
2x Arcades Sabboth
2x Anurid Brushopper
2x Decree of Justice
1x Mirari

This is a deck I designed based on the 2003 World Champion's "Wake" deck. I decided to try to focus on the power of Treva, the Renewer. Treva fits perfectly, and with the support of Captain Sisay and a few other cards, this deck seems like it might actually work. What do you think?

This is a deck based on B.F.M, the Unglued creature with stats of 99/99. It’s my favorite card, so I decided to have some fun with it. In this deck, my creatures act as Mana repositories. I play them, and then play lots of Blue spells to draw cards until I have both B.F.M. pieces in my hand. Then I sac all the creatures I have to instantly generate enough Mana to play B.F.M. Am I allowed to have four of each B.F.M. piece, or does it have to be 2 of each? Just wondering. This is probably the cheapest of the decks I’ve designed, and it’s one I’d like to make, so all advice is appreciated. Thanks!

EDIT: Changed the Sideboard to convert to convert the deck to a dump - and - revive strategy. What do you think?


Well, that’s all of them for now. I want to make all of these decks, but the Dragon and B.F.M. decks are the ones I want to make the most, so if you only post suggestions for one of them, pick one of those. Thanks in advance for your help, and I promise to try to return all r/f’s ASAP. Unless I need to make MAJOR changes to any of the decks, I would most like help making them less expensive so that I can actually create them. Thanks!

for the B.F.M deck you should consider making it re-animator and using the spell victimize.

2BVictimize
Sorcery

As an aditional cost to play victimize sacrifice a creature; return up to 2 creature cards from your graveyard and put them into play tapped.

instant B.F.M

I'll think about Victimize, but in order to use it, I'd also have to add spells to help put the B.F.M. pieces into the graveyard. Perhaps adding Hymn to Tourach and Buried Alive, plus Patriarch's Bidding (since I could use it to call, "The - biggest - baddest - blah - blah - blah... and thus regenerate B.F.M.) might work. I'll think about it, and add some of the cards to the Sideboard. Thanks!

Does anyone else have ideas? I'm most interested in the Dragon deck, but advice on any of them would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

patriarch's bidding would work with B.F.M. Because the creature type text is on both cards, its not the biggest baddest.... the creature type is different on each card.

I know. It's just that I would get to use Bidding to call (insert full text of B.F.M.'s Creature Type here), which would be funny. Plus, it would get B.F.M. on to the field. So it's just cool.

Does anyone actually have suggestions for cards to add/remove, or whatever? Especially for the Dragon deck? I really want help with that one. Thanks!

I like your dragon genesis deck, but isn't it slow at times? and if so what do you use for removal?

I don't use Removal in the deck because I

a) Can't find room for it
b) Don't know what good Red/Black Removal cards I could add.

Do you have any suggestions for some good Removal cards to add?

As for speed, I suppose it could be. I haven't actually built the deck, just the design. I want to, though, so if you can suggest some good Speed cards to add, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Actually, Removal and Speed were my main concerns with the Dragon deck. Does anyone else have ideas to add Speed or Removal to it? I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
