The Birth of a Deck Idea (MTG)

I'm well aware I owe you all a part two of my last blog post, however, while reading Theros spoilers today, I came up with a deck idea which I think could work quite well after a lot of tinkering. At least in casual play.

You see, I was looking at the spoiler of one of the Gods, Helios (white one) and at first was underwhelmed, then I realized he could produce Enchantment creatures...

That's right, 2/1 enchantment creatures which have vigilance courtesy of the big man. Now, that might not seem like much. But then I thought of something else. Sphere of safety. Combine this with other enchantments you would want in this deck idea. And the new Elspeth, and I think you have quite a cool solid deck design. You produce Enchantment creatures and then have them protect themselves with sphere of safety. Combine this with the new land spoiled so far, and some more white to provide devotion and we have quite a nice deck idea.

At least, I think so.

So what do you people think? Let me know below.

A little bit of magic. Part 1

So, I finally decided to start a blog to go alongside my youtube channel, you know provide some more content beyond videos for when I don't have time to film or edit. Like now, being stuck at my family home and spending going out with family, leaving me with no time to film.

Now what many people wont know from my youtube channel, though people from my life will know, is that I started playing magic just before Christmas, 2012, and in the last month or so decided I should try and get more involved by looking at spoilers and getting to know standard a lot better. I say standard since it's the only part of magic I have the money, and ability to focus on. Especially when magic is so very large after 20 years.

So it is with this new found focus and want to actually make viable decks that I've turned my eyes to the upcoming Theros set, and devouring rumours as much as I can. And boy am I excited.
