The Gargadon acts as a harder to disrupt combo piece than Mirror Entity.
Not exactly harder to disrupt -- it's less mana overall. You can play it first turn instead of third turn, or you don't have ... |

Play mind Shatter in the SB. You can have ridiculous openings with Garruk.
I'm not convinced about some of the numbers. Goyf seems wrong here without Thoughtsieze or other relevant early pressure t ... |

Since Fulminator mage is double red/black; venser and sower double blue and wrath of god double white, I can see problems with mana even though you aim at and achieve all colours.
However, you can ... |

| This deck is quite fun to play, and is partly based on the Blink deck from Perth's regionals. It's a little better than half against faeries but is unfavorable against Merfolk. It has split with Red D ... |

Chameleon Colossus is a Rebel.
But you want to a see a really cool effect?

Damage on the stack, search for Changeling Berserker.
Remove Vanguard from the game, kill ... |

Why do you need to stop their attackers when you're blowing up everything but your own creatures on turn 4-5? Also, I hear "fat green things" are pretty good at stopping attackers.
Also, like ... |

| Epocrosite will be too slow coming back in and will let your opponent recover. Granted, you might still win the game from that point, but you need way more than just Epocrosite. If you don't draw him ... |

Mojo, How the heck does a 5/4 flying haste creature that might return a second copy of itself to play NOT count as a card that wins you the game?
I mean, seriously, WTF. It's certainly better than ... |

There's a long thread about this deck on StarCity.
One thing most people noticed is that you don't need any help decking people (they draw cards first) and that counterspell decks eat it alive. Ext ... |

Good assessment. I, like everyone else, tried Aggro Loam, and I found every single game that I'd rather be playing Three-Deuce/Zoo.
I think that a decent Wish deck with Sqees and Masticores with ju ... |
