I am back to a few ideas I used in the past. In this one, I am playing with the idea that worked well (5-1) for I Want It All, but with a little more focus on mana, despite the lower cost (2.20). I am running a (1)/8/17/10/4 curve, balanced between black (18 cards averaging 2.44) and red (19 cards averaging 2.11). Not only is the red average lower, the deck has no cards requiring two colored mana, so it gets short count on the basic land. As with its predecessor, this deck seeks to kill and steal, controlling creatures and artifacts, while whittling away an opponent. This is what happens when you trigger a GFCI, ya know.
