Deck Reviews / Re: Need help making Flayer/Grimoire deck faster
« en: Mayo 22, 2016, 12:29:00 am »
@Bartley Your approach will be the first deck I build because, like you said, I only need to work out a few problems to get the deck to run as originally planned. Plus, it saves me money. I'll be adding Seething Song or Vessel of Volatility and Dark Ritual. I really like G.Moto's suggestion to use Galvanic Key with Grimoire of the Dead to speed things along.

@G.Moto At the same time, your approach ultimately helps me make better use of my cards throughout the game. Granted, I will be doing a lot of rebuilding, but it is necessary in order to create more action in T1-4ish. This build is more dynamic and less combo driven. I like that. Plus, I get to keep my combo for the end.

Thanks for clearing up the confusion about Corpse Traders, I am sold. Funny you mentioned Compelling Deterrence, I have a playset from draft and have been putting them aside for this build. I also have Merciless Resolve from draft, great combo w/ Relentless Dead that I didn't consider.

A lot of great thoughts and suggestion here. I am looking forward to run both builds. I will check in and let you know how it goes.  :D

Thank you everyone.  :D There are some really well thought-out ideas here that I think are not only conceptually good, but will help the deck be faster, create more synergy, have an attack and defense plan for early in the game, and overall just make better use of the cards.

Two approaches to creating this build are in the comments - (1) Zombies with a more consistent focus on creature resurrection. Through the Breach would be replaced with Call to the Kindred. I would be adding low cost creatures like gravecrawler and creatures with undying. Other spells, Bone Splinter + Altars Reap, perfect. OR (2) Keep late game strategy as is, and add mana generating cards to play the big spells faster. By adding Seething Song, Dark Ritual, etc. (G.Moto, yes, you are netting 2 mana with seething song) Galvanic key can be used to speed up Grimoire of the Dead.

I really like both strategies....However, I am inspired by the Zombie approach.

G.Moto - Your suggestions have put the G back in Grixis for this deck. Skeri, also, thanks for the great input. More black not less, (ahem Philip).  Diregraf Captain is what I need to be more powerful earlier in the game. Corpse Traders I am almost sold on, it is a bit conditional -  you can only cast it when you cast a sorcery.

I am proceeding to build these..............stay tuned.

------Madness - good advice - thank you------

Don't agree with you on these points:

-Ha, Snapcaster Mage + Young Pyromancer combo. Can you be a little more reasonable? There has to be another way.

-Geralf's Messenger. If it was 2 black mana instead of 3 OR if it didn't come into play tapped - it would be a solid card in this deck. Undying triggers Flayer of the Hatebound and Prized Amalgam.

-Relentless Dead. Same problem as Geralf. Hard to get the black mana out quickly enough to do early damage.

Agree with you here:

-Through the Breach needs to be paired with something more powerful, that is what it is designed for. Nevertheless, still questionable in this deck. One reason has to do with mana. I am waiting as it is for Grimoire of the Dead to pull creatures from the graveyard. Through the Breach is 1 mana more, (5 total), and can also only be played late game.

Yeah, I agree. I need at least a couple more lower cost creatures. I can replace Vithian Stinger and/or Geralf's Messenger with Relentless Dead. Thanks that helps a lot. I was thinking Pyreheart Wolf may also be worth considering, but again, that is 3 mana.

Also, I'm trying to figure out how to get mana out faster, to play Grimoire of the Dead earlier. Maybe add an artifact that taps for mana....?

Flayer of the Hatebound and Grimoire of the Dead often is the winning combo in this deck. The problem is, I am winning around turn 7/8/9, that is, if my opponent is as slow as I am. I need help making this work faster.

Any general suggestions or specific problems, please post.

Thanks  :o

1.Only buy play sets you will be using...and the cards in your deck/s

2.Limit how much you spend on anything else or avoid it all together if you could (boosters, etc.).

3. Sell what you will never use

4. Trade if you have friends

Grixis - Instant Reanimator -  Rebuild 4

Thoughts and suggestions, please...

Trying to put together a decent reanimator/sneak style deck, w/out using goryo's vengeance + emrakul. And its okay if it isn't as powerful. 

Grimoire of the Dead + Through the Breach to get large creatures out

Any reason why you aren't using Phantasmal Image?
