Protean Shake

Ok, something has to be doable with these cards. Here’s my first attempt.

4x Birds Of Paradise
4x Sakura-Tribe Elder/Elves of Deep Shadow
3x Stinkweed Imp
3x Loaming Shaman
4x Kokusho
4x Protean Hulk
=22

4x Vigor Mortis
4x Footsteps of Goryo
2x Life From The Loam
4x Infernal Tutor
4x Delirium Skeins
=18

3x Ghost Quarter
4x Overgrown Tomb
6x Forest
4x Swamps
2x Miren, The Moaing Well
1x Restless Tomb

SB:
3x Cranial
3x Nezumi Shortfang
3x Hideous Laughter
3x Naturlize
3x Putrefy

Ideal is to begin dredging soon, or discard Protean Hulk. Then reanimate and kill him off getting up to 4 kokushos which could hopefully kill the other guy. Shaman is in there to put kokusho back into your deck along with any other cards you might want to do again.

Low land count because the plan is to be dredgeing early with loam, or such. Thought about darkblast, shambling shell, and maybe even grave-troll. Only needs 3 mana to win. May turn out to be an interesting deck. Probably some other good cards I’m missing as well but will get to them later. 

Turn 1: Forest, Bop.
Turn 2: Swamp, Delirium Skeins Discard (non koko)(non koko)(Protean hulk)
Turn3: Footsteps of Goryo Protean Hulk, sac at end of turn, go get 4 kokushos.

Never mind, it’s converted mana cost. Doesn’t work.

Yup, but you can still go get 1 Kokusho. ;)
I actually think it’s better than just footstepping for Kokusho and having to sac it at EOT… but that’s just me. :)

EDIT: BTW, I’m happy to say, that deck is 1 of about 2,000 new rogue decks(that’s what all decks will be, soon enough) that just spawned in T2…

I do like Loaming Shaman though.

OK! Second try at randomness.

You Dirty Rat!!!

3x Nezumi Shortfang
3x Ravenous Rats
3x Rakdos Augermage
3x Lyzolda, the Blood Witch
3x Hellhole Rats
3x Okiba-Gang Shinobi
2x Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni
=20

3x Jitte
1x Death Denied (Ofcourse!!!)
3x Phyrexian Arena
4x Seal Of Fire
4x Volcanic Hammer
4x Char
=19

4x R/B Dual
4x R/B Pain
6x Swamps
4x Mountain
3x B/R Bounce Land
=21

<SB>
3x Cranial
3x Distress
3x Delirium Skeins
3x Seize The Soul
3x Hideous Laughter

Would like to fit this in but not sure if only the one side is worth it or if it’s worth it to run an island or 2 for the other effect if needed.

EDIT: Nevermind, on rereading this card i realized that they dont have to be the same controller’s creatures, so this is actually a decent spell.

Protean Hulk + Greater Good = 3 net cards + Yosei.

For a seven mana creature with no on-board abilities, Protean Hulk is pretty sick.

Nashoba- you need at least one copy of ratcatcher in that deck, for flavor’s sake.

there is a combo with protean hulk somewhere, I just feel it.

Coldsnap Draft: who cares

When he goes to the gyard, you can get Gravedigger and any 2 drop and put them directly in play....

That’s about all I got.  :/ I r t3h suck @ deckbuilding....lol

gravedigger.... hana kami.... uh oh… wheres christian?

Love,
Matt

Standard: Ideal 31-7-8

How about gravedigger + nezumi bone-reader, or even thoughtpicker witch… that could make for some fun… You could keep getting exumer thrulls, gravediggers, and mousoleum turnkeys back to keep the sacrificing going… either that, or just use greater good. :)

Oh wait, how about Greater Good + Hulk + Golgari Thug? Draw 6/Discard 3 cards a turn for 5GG? I’ll take 4. ;)

No, no, no.  I read this today:

....yeah, I saw that a couple of weeks ago. You know, it might actually work if 5 of the cards you need weren’t BANNED. :)

hate to awaken sleeping threads, but my lj has a dictionary.com word of the day today and you’ll never guess what it was…
