|
|
Might be a mistake to try a hybrid here, but mostly this is just an attempt to update Gifts Rock.
Land-
3 Snow-Covered Forest
1 Snow-Covered Island
1 Snow-Covered Plains
1 Snow-Covered Swamp
4 Windswept Heath
2 Polluted Delta
1 Watery Grave
1 Temple Garden
1 Hallowed Fountain
1 Godless Shrine
1 Breeding Pool
3 Overgrown Tomb
1 Horizon Canopy
1 Ghost Quarter
1 Mouth of Ronom
Drops-
4x Birds of Paradise
4x Sakura-Tribe Elder
3x Eternal Witness
3x Loxodon Hierarch
1x Ravenous Baloth
Tutors-
4x Gifts Ungiven
2x Glittering Wish
2x Living Wish
Disruption and Removal-
4x Cabal Therapy
1x Duress
3x Pernicious Deed
1x Putrefy
Crappy Gifts Package-
1x Life from the Loam
1x Azusa, Lost but Seeking
1x Genesis
1x Moment's Peace
1x Street Wraith
Sideboard-
1x Boseiju, Who Shelters All
1x Flagstones of Trokair
2x Duress
2x Moment's Peace
1x Eternal Witness
1x Harmonic Sliver
1x Mortify
1x Orzhov Pontiff
1x Pernicious Deed
1x Putrefy
1x Overgrown Estate
1x Loxodon Hierarch
1x Crime // Punishment
The Azusa is obviously a questionable inclusion, and Street Wraith may be out-of-place everywhere outside of Legacy/Vintage. Thoughts?

Actually, every single card will rotate out of Extended some day. (Ok, maybe basic lands won't but everything else probably will) |

So . . . when you say "don't even bother," you mean "don't bother playing anything that isn't Vintage or Legacy," right? Or do you mean I should play with inferior cards that won't rotate out as quickly and ignore the power of fetchlands and Deed?

I'm pretty sure the definition of "Gifts Rock" is "A messy, unfocused pile of steaming cards, see 'Midrange' for more examples" but it wins an occasional game or two. Maybe a part of the problem is my organization. I just posted from my Apprentice list. I'll go clean it up now. |
