The swath of uncouth knaves that would spin the fabric of their very future have fallen by the wayside. Now stand we tempest-tossed, adrift in unfamiliar and turbulent waters, but e'en as such be fortune's draws, our shouts rise up above the swells: "A pox upon thy houses! In hand hold I the scroll inscribed with Tourach's own accursed hymn, and by the biting shriek of its inquisition shall thy plans be seized and torn asunder! The Veil descends, and all thy lands shall be laid to waste."

about cursed scroll, they changed it around the time of vintage masters to let you click a card in your hand to name it.

Not sure why Pox decks don't run The Rack as at least a one-of? He mentions that pox decks tend to have trouble 'pressing an advantage', and many games with pox decks involve both players being more or less hellbent for a long period before the opponent either stabilizes or the pox player closes the game out...why not put in something that capitalizes on what the deck is already meant to do? It's also a seemingly innocuous turn-1 play that people usually won't bother to counter, then a few turns later those Liliana activations turn into more damage and a shorter clock.

You should play a loampox list, its got way more ability to press advantage, the cycling lands and loam, alongside abrupt decays help shore up the issue of do nothing turns, also lingering souls is an awesome way to win a game.

If you're gonna board in the dark confidents you should probably board out the Nether Spirits I reckon. Also, why have 2 nether spirits instead of one? With Liliana and Factory, you seem to have plenty of finishers.

Could this deck want a copy of Infernal Darkness in the sideboard? It's basically the Mono Black Blood Moon, except it locks out basic lands too.

meh, too hard to keep around I'm guessing. Between Wasteland, Sinkhole and Smallpox, it seems redundant.

There are also versions of this build that run Crucible of Worlds, which is probably a much better choice if you're set on that route.
@zone667 жыл бұрын
so, are the following cards not really important to play a competitive pox, or are they left out because they are so expensive? - tabernacel of pendrell vale - the abyss - chains of mephistopheles for me as noob would be interesting to know,...
@ADINSX37 жыл бұрын
Tabernacle is hard to run and still have enough black sources. As it stands, the deck has 16 black sources, which gives it almost exactly a 90% chance to have at least one black source in its opening hand. 90% is generally the rule-of-thumb threshold for things like this. The Abyss is good, but Liliana just embarrasses it. Also, it makes it so you only have Nether Spirit 50% of turns, and it never gets to attack. Chains is a decent sideboard card.
@zone667 жыл бұрын
thanks, that sounds reasonable, because of all the creature-removal effects (smallpox, etc.) tabernacle is also not really needed here yep. (not as in loam-pox)
@scottneusen96017 жыл бұрын
The cards you mentioned are actually pretty affordable online. Tabernacle is like 15 tix and the others are around 5 tix and tix are worth $1 so if you are playing online they are very reasonable. But as the other person mentioned they are just not as good as they could be. Particularly without any sort of cantrip ability 1 of's lose a lot of utility and with cards that cost BB and even BBB tabernacle is more of a liability. and they don't improve your bad matchups like lands or even fast storm kills.
@zone667 жыл бұрын
ok, yep i play paper, there they are very pricy ;) would be "maze of ith" a option against lands? (dark depths combo), hmm but a 1-of would also be not enough against lands i think... (like you said... senseis top is also gone for cantrips)
@scottneusen96017 жыл бұрын
The issue with any land against lands is that they run 4 wastelands and have Loam to get them all back.

Because of the BB and BBB in costs, you don't want Mishra's Factory and Wasteland to prevent you from casting your spells and you're most likely not going to have a lot of lands anyway so being legendary might no be a problem

If you're playing this deck, having different art on all your cards is definitely the way to go. You should alter the snow-covered swamps to have them be white-bordered too. And remember to play your lands in front of everything else.
