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

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.

Another thing to note - it is easy to design a deck that will draw just about every match. For example, black lotus/hymn to tourach/sarcomancy will win just about every game where it goes first, but i have a hard time believeing it will win much going second.

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. |
