There are many ways to win with this deck that
which require the combo of 2 or more cards so here it goes:
1- This combo is the original strategy of this
deck. Get out a Psychatog which reads: (Discard a card from your hand Psychatog
gets +1/+1 until teh end of turn.-and-Remove two cards in your graveyard from
the game: Psychatog gets +1/+1 until the end of turn.) Then discard your
entire hand except for morality shift and possibly Aboshan's Desire. then remove
all but a single card in your graveyard from play. Then use Moralty
Shift which reads: (Exchange your graveyard and library. Then suffle your
library.) Once this is done remove the rest of your cards from your new
graveyard to beef up your psychatog even more. Now that this is done you
can attack, however your opponent may have creatures so you can use
Aboshan's Desire to fly over pesky ground creatures. However this combo will be
shut down by any creatures with flying so be aware. This is also a counterspell
deck so use the counterspell wisely. Use then to target creaures with flying as
well as any other annoyences to this deck.
2- The next combo is also involving
psychatog. However this requires a late game pull of because you need enough
cards in your graveyard to do so. Upheaval which reads: (Return all permanents
to their owner's hands) also you float mana for psychatog. now that psychatog is
out on the field wait a turn. When is is your turn again discard all teh cards
from your hand to teh graveyard then remove all teh cards form your graveyard
from play to beef up psychatog and attack. With enough cards in your graveyard
and hand you should be able to finish off the opponent with ease.
3- The next combo involves phage which reads: (When
phage the untouchable comes into play, if you didn't play it form your hand, you
lose the game.-and-Whenever phage deals combat damage to a creature, destroy
that creature. It can't be regenerated.-and-Whenever phage deals combat damage
to a player, that player loser the game.) First you play upheaval and float mana
for phage. Once phage is on the field wait one turn. Next turn attack with phage
and you win. Another way to win with phage is if your opponent has all ground
creatures simply put Aboshan's desire on her and have her attack killing your
opponent instantly.
This deck has lots of potential and with the right
cards other stratagies can be born. There are other ways of winning with this
deck too. The wall in this deck should keep you alive. They make it so that you
dont have to counter every creature your opponent plays. Only ones that are very
strong are worth countering. Creatures like sengir vampire and quicksilver
dragon are good troop supporting cards and can be very deadly if used right.
These cards alone can usually rip though or fly over opponents defences and do
some damage to him or he with a simple beatdown strategy. Also Amassador
Laquatus is one of the cheapest card i can think of and can deck the opponent.
By paying three colorless mana target player puts the top three cards of his or
her library in his or her graveyard. Also Aboshan adds to the already
overpowering controll theme. He is a guard againts annoying weenie beatdown and
creaturn heavy deck that use mostly ground creatures. By paying three blue mana
all creatures without flying are tapped. this helps so that even if your
opponent has an overwhelming amount of creatues he or she can use then is they
are tapped-lol-so anyways enjoy trying to replicate this deck and if you can
good job you will have lots of fun destroying your opponent with this evil deck.
Peace Michael
