Deck 'MiniRampie_v1.1' vs. Matchup 'Devotion White' |
Help |
| Deck : | 'MiniRampie_v1.1', by Eric Baes (created 2014-09-26) |
| Format : | Standard      |
| Archetype : | (Abzan) Junk Aggro/Control |
| Colors : |    |
| Plan A : | beat-down, protecting (ideally 'Elvish Mystic' powered turn 2) 3-drops |
| Plan B : | some early resilient creatures and mainly spot removal |
| Strengths : | low mana curve (only 4 spells above 3 CMC); versatile removal based non-intrusive sideboard (keeping offensive deck nature) |
| Weaknesses : | non-trivial mana base: self-damage + assuming practical 4 mana limit; no card draw; no full board sweepers in sideboard; not much defense against Blue instant blowouts |
| Comment : | inspired by v1.0, but switched to KTK Standard; almost untested |

Note: Unused Cards
| Why ? | ||
|---|---|---|
Creatures |
||
|
Bloodsoaked Champion | / too weak/slow, even against control matchups |
|
Selfless Cathar | / too weak effect, because not many affected creatures |
|
Aegis of the Gods | / too narrow |
|
Chief of the Edge | / missing synergy |
|
Master of Pearls | / too slow/vulnerable/costly as morph creature, compared to e.g. 'Inspired Charge' |
|
Boon Satyr | / relatively weak toughness and presumably too high flash/reactive bestow cost |
|
Brimaz, King of Oreskos | / relatively underpowered attacker without evasion, despite excellent vigilance |
|
Hushwing Gryff | / too narrow; also too weak |
 |
Hooting Mandrills | / too slow |
Instants and Sorceries |
||
|
Dark Betrayal | / preference for more flexible removal, despite their slightly higher cost |
|
Despise | / inferior to 'Thoughtseize' |
|
Gather Courage | / too weak/defensive (negative 2-for-1 risk) |
|
Glimpse the Sun God | / relatively hard to use in aggro/tempo setting |
|
Windstorm | / too situational, and potentially too expensive; partly replaced by 'Bile Blight' |
|
Back to Nature | / kills own monsters |
|
Feat of Resistance | / 4 copies of 'Gods Willing' should suffice |
|
Kin-Tree Invocation | / (statistically) creates average creature without abilities |
|
Life's Legacy | / can't be used reactively, hence tempo loss |
|
Return to the Ranks | / slightly too situational |
|
Savage Punch | / slightly too situational, hence preference for hard removal |
|
Abzan Charm | / too expensive, compared to similar or more versatile removal, for (in principle) non-reactive aggro mode |
|
Reap What Is Sown | / too weak per creature |
|
Inspired Charge | / not enough return on investment, due to low number of creatures |
|
Silence the Believers | / more expensive than 'Banishing Light' |
|
Utter End | / more expensive than 'Banishing Light' |
|
Become Immense | / too situational; in principle worse than 'Titanic Growth' |
Other Spells |
||
|
Bow of Nylea | / presumably slightly too slow in aggro setting |
|
Spear of Heliod | / too weak/reactive/expensive |
 |
Nissa, Worldwaker | / slower than 'Siege Rhino' |
|
Spectra Ward | / too expensive; no guarantee against mass or untargeted blowouts |
