Arn's Classic Challenge

Arnnaria · 02-23-2012, 06:38 AM

To get more people to post in the Classic section, I'm offering a bounty on a challenge. If you win the challenge, you get a 30.00 gift certificate to MTGOTraders.com and you get to choose the next challenge. (You do not have to provide a prize for the next challenge, you just have to come up with one.)

This challenge: 4-0 a Daily Event with a decklist that has 4x Mind's Desire in the main deck.

Why Mind's Desire? It is a powerful storm card that is unrestricted in Classic. I want to see some creativity and see if anyone can pull off a flawless victory with maxed out numbers of this card.

Feel free to discuss strategy here, decklists, or anything else.

Gentlemen, start your deck building.

Great initiative! Storm looks pretty well positioned now. Do you think a high tide variant would have a chance or is that too 'legacy'ish?

I think High Tide is hard to play with Misstep unrestricted.

Also, I talked to Heath and he said if enough people show interest/attempt the challenge he'll up the bounty. I also think I'm going to raise the bounty by 5$ every five events.

Just play Memory Jar Tendrils. The deck is absolutely busted, and will only run about 900 tix for what is effectively the best deck in Classic.

Maindeck Force AND Thoughtseize AND a 65% turn 1 win? Have fun 4-0'ing your way through a field of bad Merfolk decks. You'll be using Mind's Desire as Force/Chrome Mox/Snapback fodder primarily, but you CAN play 4.

Looks like nobody took this up

I play Legacy and would build and play Classic but I don't feel like paying $500 for a deck in a format that nobody plays.

For real. Classic is a 3 man tournament that never fires.
