Hey Goons. Help me build a deck with my cards, a little inspiration and whatever modern common and uncommon I can lay my hands on that you goons command me to.


The rules

Three goons need to agree to add a card to the deck. Only four copy of a card at a time.

Four goons need to agree for a card to be removed. One card at a time.

These voting rules flip once the deck is full and do not revert.

If a card receives three 'nays' before it reaches an agreement vote that card is removed from voting for the rest of the day.

20+ usd cards may be added only one at a time. Same voting and removing rules apply. Cards worth 40+ USD are added one at a time and must come with at least a sentence stating why you want the card added.

No more than 20 cards will be bought for this deck.

Some of the deck has been selected by me.

One of the non-land cards pre-selected must be in the final deck.

Only cards from that are modern legal are allowed in.

A card is only valid if a land that generates the kind of mana needed to cast it and use one of it's abilities is already in the deck list

The deck must have at least four lands

The Deckbox

Here is my Deckbox for the main pool of cards to draw upon:
https://deckbox.org/sets/227342


And finally once the deck is made and signed of on by five goons I would take it to an event in the SF Bay Area where goons could come and loving mock me.

I would hope goons will argue and debate and then there would be a deck of good ideas terribly executed. I don't know if this should be posted in play by post instead.

So what say you goons? Wanna play a game about a game?

Get a Delver in in instead. If we're doing tempo, we're doing it right.

True, but then it's also kind of a predictable turn out for how things will be. Oh well.

In that case, screw Delvers, add four plains. Might as well include the best color.

I just need Sigma-X to reaffirm that he wants to vote for that.

edit: I am going to be an rear end about this if you vote for something else directly after another vote that doesn't win.

Sigma-x would, as that's why he suggested Sacred Foundry in the first place.

Also, keep a running tally. One vote for 4 lava spikes, one vote against 1 lava spike.

But the way the rules are a for is more likely to win. I think the votes should cancel each other out but then that leads to trolling votes against. loving tally it is.

If 3 goons care enough to vote against lava spike to post 12 total times, remove lava spike.

Also,

Add two lightning helix.

Miscounted. 4 goons against times 4 cards. It would take 16 votes against to remove lava spike altogether, and 3 to get lava spike in in the first place.

Also, I think you should source your cards from decent prices offered by goons in SA mart, before going to other online stores, just to support goon magic people.

Noted, I will sleep on changing the removing vote rules. Also glad I added the rule where those voting rules switch when the deck is full.

It's a joke on Taylor Swift.

Also, the vote against rule is fine. As you're allowing us to vote for more than one card per post, let one person vote against each individual copy of a card. Dude upthread wants to cast one vote each against each copy of lava spike, he can.
