DO YOU HATE COMBO PLAYERS? WHAT ABOUT ARTIFACT DECKS THAT SIT IN THE CORNER AND TWIDDLE WITH THEIR PARADOX ENGINE UNTIL THEY WIN WITH SOME SILLY NONSENSE THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE RAMP INTO CREATURES? IS THERE A DRAW-GO CONTROL PLAYER THAT TRIES TO DO THINGS LIKE "DRAW CARDS" OR "INTERACT WITH THE STACK"? RURIC THAR MAY BE THE DECK FOR YOU! RURIC THAR JUST WANTS A GOOD CLEAN FIGHT, SO WE MUST USE DIRTY MAGIC CARDS LIKE MAGUS OF THE MOON TO SLOW DOWN OUR OPPONENTS. MOSTLY WE WIN BY CASTING AN UGIN ON TURN FIVE THOUGH. THERE IS NO ROOM FOR SPELLS LIKE CULTIVATE WHEN YOU RUN PRIMAL SURGE. TEN MANA IS A LOT, BUT WHEN TEN MANA WINS YOU THE GAME BY SMASHING PUNY CONTROL AND ENCHANTRESS PLAYERS WITH YOUR BIG FAT ELDRAZI ARMY, WE CONSIDER IT TEN MANA WELL SPENT. SINCE THE DECK IS VERY COMPLICATED, LET'S RECAP:

1. RAMP
2. SMASH
3. LAUGH AT THE BLUE PLAYER
   GOT IT? IT CAN BE HARD TO REMEMBER THIS, SO HERE'S A HANDY FLOWCHART:
   CAN YOU CAST A CARD IN YOUR HAND?
   IF YES, YOU SHOULD.
   IF NO, PASS TURN UNTIL THERE'S A CARD YOU CAN.
   NOW GET OUT THERE AND SMASH!
