Low Budget Deck Idea


Golem Economics
This deck is nuts if it goes off and once again uses the principle that the clever bods in Wizards R&D may like the odd afternoon snooze, because they must have been napping to let this little trick slip through...

We’re going to let you build the deck yourself but we are going to show you the combo that makes this deck INSANITY...

Here’s the question... What if I told you that for one mana you could draw five cards at instant speed, perhaps even more and at the same time give your creatures a bonus, Intrigued?

Right now you’re probably thinking I’m insane, but it’s true it can be done and without too much hassle either. Naturally there’s a catalyst and here it is...

Precursor Golem

Now the R&D boys obviously thought such an overpowered card needed a negative side and therefore the part of the card that says...‘whenever a player casts an instant or sorcery that targets only a single golem, that player copies that spell for each other golem that spell could target’ was clearly meant for doom blade and lightning bolt and the like... Now Wizards ‘building on a budgett’ have already highlighted a couple of combos with this beast and the likes of Giant Growth and Vines of The Vastwood., but we think they’ve missed a few tricks, so here; the redux with lots of added card draw...

For this experiment you are going to need any of the following cards , you’ll probably have them all kicking around in the commons box , but today we are going to turn them into giant killers...

Twisted Image

Feetting Distraction (only play this one during opponents end step)

Irresistible Prey

Tel-Jilad Defiance (ok so this one costs 2 bite me! )

You can even splash black...

Nighthaze

Basically because these spells copy for each golem in play, and it's easy to have 4/5 or even more out at once, you'll be drawing dcards for each of them., giving you huge card advantage.

There are a good few golems in standard at the mo...Lodestone Golem, Rusted Relic, Platinum Imperium, Dread Statuary, Golem Artisan and more...

...And a few ways to protect them, but we recommend Asceticism and Leyline of Vitality...It’s in colour and boom, they’ll come in at 0/4 and you’ll gain 3 life , also when you swing and play twisted image they’ll all be hitting for 4...


Whichever way you go you can be certain that you won't be running out of cards...
