This came out as an ally deck, though it started as a proper nuke deck. It just worked out that the allies best supported my evil plans, so they came along for the ride. This brings a return to Xenic Poltergeists as a means to taking out land. Make land an artifact, then animate it as a 0/0 and watch it go poof. The Gorilla Shamans are there too, of course, and the Curse of Death’s Holds are a means of managing smaller creatures (and making the big ones less dangerous). There are many of the usual standby cards, but I cut back on mana enhancements, preferring to push the destruction over the fight. I get a nice little 2.18 average out of the 14/13/7/4/2 curve.
