That's Sneaky Oversold Dragons! Wheee! Version 1.0

Still in Major works. Anyway, I'm trying to like just have extended + Sneak Attack. Uhhhh...it's like ridiculously powerful and fast apparently...and like killed my affinity (it's the no-holds-barred clamp version). I don't understand why either

11 Swamp
13 Mountain

Creatures:
4 Ryusei, the Falling Star
4 Kokusho, the Evening Star
4 Doomed Necromancer
1 Dragon Mage
1 Rorix Bladewing
1 Bladewing the Risen

Spells:
3 Diabolic Tutor
3 Barter in Blood
4 Sneak Attack
3 Buried Alive
4 Oversold Cemetery
4 Burning Wish

SB:
Diabolic Tutor
2 innocent blood
barter in blood
buried alive
cranial extraction
beacon of unrest
obliterate
promise of power
zombify
hammer of Bogardan
pyroclasm
consume spirit
flamebreak
fireball

So basically the entire deck revolves around sneak attack, with oversold supporting it (although generally speaking there was no need). I esp. like the synergy with the bladewings, as I can bring one forth to bring another out, which is highly convienent for the extra damage. Of course, sneaking out the Kukusho is a 15-life exchange. :O

Strangely speaking, the deck can actually handle so many things that's thrown in its way. :)

Removal I have the barters, with wishing for more if I need. I can tutor for the sneak attack too. However, the 6-mana dragons sometimes is hard-casted anyway for more fun! XD

Some guys have been questioning my flamebreak there in my SB, but I found several times that I'd be stuck with RRR and a burning wish in hand, facing the stupid weenies. Yup, apparently I get it enough times to warrant it.

And the single dragon mage always help with refueling my hand. :) Yeah I need more testing and stuff to really see how this will go, since right now it's still a turn 4 affair...

Uhhhhh...yeah suggestions and stuff? This is probably going to hit the casual tables once I get the sneak attacks...

hmmm, the 4 kokushos and the 4 ryuuseis are a bit too steep don't you think? I don't know, you might have a bit of a problem with mana, but tell me how it goes out.

[Kenny_C.002]

Well 4 kukusho and 4 ryusei would onlybe steep if I don't sneak them out. So the question is whether or not sneak cann comeout quickly enough to dump them all on the field. That I'm still not quite sure of yet...

[digi-kun]

hmmm...perhaps replacing 1 or 2 of the necromancers with Balthor the defiled? dunno since its almost the same thing

Balthor would be interesting, but there's one flaw in it.
He's 4 to cast, and he can't afford another 4 mana creature, he already has kokusho, ryuusei (etc).

[digi-kun]

suggestion: sneak attack him in and use 3 swamps to activate the ability and bring all your handy cards in the grave to play =D XD

[Kenny_C.002]

Can't rely too much on the sneak tho, even if I do run 3 tutors/4 wishes/4 sneaks. The defiled IMO is only good as a finisher, and may be suitable to throw a single copy in there instead of a Ryusei (but with that I lose 1 piece of removal), or I can drop the risen combo and throw in something like bathor and something else (like something in the middle for cost). OR I can drop the mage for bathor, which might be interesting, although I still can't throw off the kokushos and ryusei easily enough.

The final question is whether or not this is even needed, since 2 kokushos would mean that it's over...is there a need to go further with the bathor situation?
