   This one is really weak on the creatures…. but two underworld dreams and lots of creature control might work as a stall and win strategy.

   Bob, Thanks for your input.

   You really like mono colored decks! I think adding another color will make your decks stronger so you don’t have to play mediocre cards like Sanguine Bond, Manabarbs, and Fog.

   Hi Dee,

   You’re absolutely right. In practice, I would always splash. I just wanted to see how strong the deck could be as mono color.

   I think the green is the only really competitive one. Fog is actually quite nice to prevent a blowout, or you can go all in and not worry about the counter-attack. Or lure your opponent into going all-in. It’s definitely no Sleep, but it’s not a junk card.

   Mind you, the red deck is pretty good too, 6 jackal familiars … serious early pressure, especially if you go:

   T1: jackal,
   T2: raging goblin, swing for 3, jackal;
   T3: ball lightning, swing for 11
   T4: gg

   I can dream, can’t I?

   Too bad I couldn’t draft some lightning bolts!
