Even if you did channel fireball for a "draw" wouldnt you still lose by taking 20 first?

The hard thing will be making a deck that can win going first or second.

Except that part about all cards that make you discard more then 1 card are banned.

if you read the rules hymn is banned. you cannot have a card that makes your opponent discard more than 1 card. also ive looked at some of the decks. keeping in mind that both players will make the best play.. there are a few matches that.. neither player will play a card. because playing a card would lose them the game. the game will be a draw. i also have a small pannel of debators that i can call in for the tougher matches. yes its only 3 card. and it is pretty strait forward. but any draws i will confide in frinds to confirm. there are going to be alot of draws. in fact 2 people have already sent me the same exact deck. its pretty funny. and yes, lotus looks like it will be banned. and whoever wins.. there cards are banned in addition. i was also thinking that between each reound randomly UNBANNING a card. hows that idea sound? ill put them in alphabetical order and roll a dice for it.

Nope. Channel Hurricane costs 20GGG to draw. You would need to pay 20 life to Channel. You can Black Lotus / Channel / Darksteel Colossus, though. It's a little different.

Timevault/Flame Fusilade can work, but you need Mercadian Bazaar to supply the mana.
You couldn't think of a deck that's better at drawing matches? ... Tropical Island / Foil / Basking Rootwalla
The deck I designed wins going first or second in several match-ups, but has its weaknesses. After long stretches of testing, it doesn't appear to be the best deck, though.

Whoa dog take it easy, don't drop any lists here especially if they're top tier. Kinda spoils the fun. I mean if 2 people have the same list they get the same score and noone wins.

Yeah IDK it beats some lists, like the ones that try to drop one big creature. My list is hardcore. I can't imagine not winning.

It's still a draw, though, because if they just don't cast the creature, then it's a draw, unless the draw deck goes "Tropical Island, Walla," then the big creature deck goes "lol, you can't play foil, drop my big fella," and thus... whoever flinches loses.

I hope your deck isn't the same as my deck. Because my deck is hardcore, and I want to change it. It doesn't have as good of win percentages as a certain other deck.
