TYPE II DECKS/How to exploit the metagame?
Clamato123
(Warning this post is extremly long)
The Type Two metagame is 5cx Creature Decks with worbs(and 5cW with Armors and
Scrolls), 5cx control with Whispers of the Muse, Mono/2 Color decks with Cursed
Scroll and various combo decks. The metagame is dominated by creature swarm
you must be able to swarm first, live the intial weenie rush or win with your
combo before you die to your opponents creatures and burn. What decks take
advantage of the current metagame? Here are 8 that are or exploit the
metagame:
2 Rootwater Diver
4 Tidal Warrior
4 Lord of Atlantis
4 Merfolk Traders
2 Mana Merfolk
3 Man-O-War
2 Propaganda
2 Waterspout Djinn
4 Mana Leak
4 Counterspell
4 Legacy's Allure
4 Winter Orb
1 Wasteland
1 Undiscovered Paradise
19 Island
SB:
4 Hydroblast -Sligh
2 Chill -Sligh
2 Hurkyl's Recall Necro, Pox, Trap and Prison
2 Propaganda Weenie
2 Suq' ata Firewalker Weenie
1 Phyrexian Furnace Graveyard
Worbs and Counters hurt control(5cDonais), Cursed Scroll Weenie and Necro/Pox.
Legacys Allure hurts weenie decks especially 5cG. This deck has a good balance
of control/beatdown.

4 Quicksand
4 Mulch
2 Wall of Roots
4 Endangered Armodon

Playing a Non-Weenie Mono-Green Deck will always leave your opponent guessing
they will never know what to expect and with only 22 creatures(6 of them
cantrips) I am not worried about Perish. This deck will beatdown with its 8
fat creatures and can turn into an LD deck witha good draw. With only one of
every card in the SB there will always be something to put in and they won't
know what is going on.
4 Mogg Fanatics
4 Jackal Pups
4 Mogg Conscripts
2 Goblin Digging Team

Not your typical Sligh this one uses a lot of mana denial and more weeines to
disrupt the buyback, Necro, Pox and Cursed Scroll decks. It has a suprisingly
effective transformative SB.

UWR control. This deck abuses Reflecting Pool(along with the other rainbow
lands) to use the best cards from U, W and R(no matter what the casting cost).
It gains CA by not playing any art, enc or sum.

You were mana screwed,
Thats the breaks, thats the breaks,
You forgot your SB at home
Thats the breaks, thats the breaks,
You got beatdown by Durkwood Boars,
Thats the breaks, thats the breaks,
You drafted 3 creatures and 6 Empyrical Armors
Thats the breaks, thats the breaks,
And these are the breaks, break it up, break it up, breakdown.
