Im bored.

I do technical support for American clients for a living and today is American Thankgiving. Since I work in Canada I haven't got a single call yet. (Sigh)

So I've been cooking up some decks for Time Spiral block constructed and by all means I am more than happy to share what I've come up with so far.

These lists have not been tested so further tweaking is necessary.

WHITE/BLUE AKROMA

12 Island
8 Plains
2 Gemstone Mine
2 Calciform Pools
-------------------
24 Land

4 Akroma Angel of Wrath
4 Looter Il-Kor
4 Soltari Priest
-------------------
12 Creatures

4 Griffin Guide
4 Careful Consideration
4 Resurrection
4 Temporal Isolation
4 Think Twice
4 Psionic Blast
------------------
24 Spells

SUMMARY:

Bury Akroma into your graveyard with the help of
Looter il-kor and Careful Consideration and bring her back with a vengeance with Resurrection. Nothing new there.

Griffin Guide for boosting up Looter and Soltari Priest.

Temporal Isolation and Psionic Blast for creature control.

MORPH

14 Island
8 Forest
2 Terramorphic Expanse
-------------------
24 Land

4 Vesujan Shapeshifter
4 Thelonite Hermit
4 Willbender
4 Wall of Roots
3 Brine Elemental
3 Fathom Seer
2 Deep Sea Kraken
-------------------
19 Creatures

4 Think Twice
4 Psionic Blast
4 Call of the Herd
3 Serrated Arrows
2 Careful Consideration
-------------------
17 Spells

SUMMARY:

Vesujan Shapeshifter is the star in this deck. Main target are Thelonite Hermit for token generation crazyness, Brine Elemental for Time Walk effects, Fathom Seer for card drawing, and Will Bender for redirection. We want to put Deep Sea Kraken suspended and acts as an alternative win condition.

and finally...

GOBLINS!

23 Moutain
-------------------
23 Land

4 Greater Gargodon
4 Thick-Skinned Goblin
4 Mogg War Marshall
3 Jaya Ballard, Task Mage
2 Ib Halfheart Goblin
-------------------
17 Creatures

4 Empty the Warrens
4 Disintegrate
4 Rift Bolt
4 Sulfurous Blast
4 Sudden Shock
-------------------
20 Spells

SUMMARY:

Greater Gargodon is obviosly the main win condition in this deck. Ideal to put it into suspended mode as early as possible. With the help of goblin tokens defending and fighting for your glory sac them as they get burned or killed in combat to GG.

Love it or hate it. Just post your thoughts and complains.

I threw together a similar u/w deck for a ts block mini the other day. Howbout serra avenger instead of soltari priest? The avenger plays much better d. Also maybe magus of the disk instead of griffin guide. I also tried playing a couple of sinbad....but the jury is still out on him.

I like the idea of the gu morph deck. Maybe add the fourth brine elemental, since its combo with shapeshifter is bizzonkers. It would be great if the deck could find a way to get w mana for momentary blink (also temporal isolation)...maybe prismatic lens, gemhide sliver, or storage lands? Momentary blink is amazing with morph.

The goblin deck is cool, and consistent, but I think slivers are the way to go for smash and burn. The br sliver deck is excellent.
