LA Conflux-Dential: Reverence for Meglonoth

bdm | February 1, 2009 | 2:52 pm

So in the end my first Sealed Deck went 3-1 and did not lose more than three matches while gunslinging and two of those were against draft decks — actually there was a fourth but my opponent was playing his Standard deck with Remove Soul and Wrath of God. Here is the deck I built; I won’t be able to give you the full card pool but I will list some of the notable sideboard cards and standouts in the colors I did not play:

Sideboard:
(These are basically cards I thought about playing, would consider playing that color for, or that I actually sided in.)

Scavenger Drake
Grixis Battlemage
Salvage Titan

Obelisk of Jund

Worldly Counsel
Frontline Sage (Absurd card!)
Resounding Wave

Naturalize

2 Lapse of Certainty
Paragon of the Amesha
Angelsong
Asha’s Favor (I am not a big fan of Auras but I really wanted to give this a try on Big Blamps)
