It should be obvious, that with any kind of deck where you are running discard to make your deck come alive (Example; Threshold), you're also gonna need to be able to put cards in your hand as well. So for draw power; you have Brainstorm, Deep Analysis, and Careful Study. These are excellent draw power cards. Deep Analysis has flashback so you can either, discard it straight to the graveyard and still be able to use it, or you can simply play the spell twice before it is removed from the game! Careful Study allows you to draw and abuse madness to put your powerhouses on the field. It is also a way to get that Wonder in your graveyard to give all your creatures flying! That's a very tough thing to deal with if you are running few or no flyers in your deck as an opposing player! The object of this deck should be apparent by now. Discard what you don't need to boost creatures power, discard Deep Analysis to play it for a cheaper casting cost (if you find yourself being mana screwed), and abuse the madness abilities of Arrogant Wurm and Basking Rootwalla to get some heavy damage in quick. You can also discard Roar of the Wurm to play it considerably cheaper than hardcasting it. When I first began using this deck, I found myself holding back on discarding cards I "thought" I needed to keep in my hand. Pffft, I learned my lesson there pretty quickly in a couple games where it cost me my pride in a new deck and the smackdown I love so much to give! Don't be afraid to discard people! This deck is awesome about bringing those powerhouses on the field to kick your opponet's teeth in! One last card I feel I should discuss with all of you is Circular Logic. One may ask, "Why would I need this card in an aggro deck?" To put it as simply as I can, it can save your butt in a pinch! And with being able to play it for it's madness ability, you can utilize the most out of your mana for draw and crits. It also tends to trick your opponets into playin something big that you get to smack right back down! My two favorites words with this card: "No Sir!" I thoroughy enjoy taking this deck online and playin people with other classic decks. I used to think to myself constantly "Why the hell would I wanna play classic? I don't wanna use that old crap!" But this deck has given me a love for the format I had never forseen online and I hope it will you too. Till next time my friends, keep on keepin on (ROFL! I just couldn't leave without a Ricky Bobby quote!) -Nitti |  |

Yes as a matter of fact, I have been considering splashing red in the deck to include reckless wurm. It's a fine madness card! And it would be able to be run as an ext deck, that's true. But to be honest, I have no qualms in confidence or the abilities of the deck as is to continue to run it classic for now. One thing I find surprising that not one person has managed to comment on is that this deck doesn't even flaunt one single rare in the main deck! And for the guy who commented that noone plays classic...well you know that is a false statement. ANf fix to see a huge amount of ppl playing classic when 7th rotates out cuz I don't see many ppl losing interest in counterspells! And I for one am most certainly not gonna scrap my wheel and deal deck just because of a rotation of cards....
Ever thought about going into red with the red arrogant wurm and fiery temper. seems solid enough, imma try to do something with madness in std. you could cut the brainstorms and make an ext version with the red arrogant worm.
well frank for your frist time i think you did a very good job keep up the good work <3
" In 1 vs. 1, this deck holds at least a 95% win rate."
There is no way your holding onto a 95% win rate against other classic decks. ALOT is two words btw.
I have a pretty good idea who did that already Heath. It's fixing to get dealt with too. Funny Amd...You shoulda kept clan matters in the clan, not tryin to put someone down for an honest effort....
I would have like to have seen a little strategy section on how to play the deck in multiplayer; other than that it looks pretty good. Maybe try something a little more creative next time, but that's just my inner Johnny speaking. Seems like everyone but me talks the language of netdecks ; )
Wow lol It's here! Anyways...yeah I didn't even think about doing a strategy section for multiplayer. I will remember that in the future. I currently have a couple ideas I'm mulling over in my head for my next article. I don't always plan to write just about decks because my involvement in the community has been pretty heavy for some time now as I'm sure you can remember. But thanks for the input :)
You can take all but the most rediculous strategies and say they are a net-deck...
I think he did a good job, yah I now that I think of it I would have liked to see a strategy section... Im not sure if brainstorm is worth going into classic for either =/
Yes...that's true you can take any deck from online and claim it to be a netdeck really unless it's just built that poorly lol Dreager, I did have some concerns myself abot running this deck classic at first, but after using it some, I found it very much worth the risk! In 1 vs. 1, this deck holds at least a 95% win rate.
It does not seem like a good deck. And no one plays classic.
If your going to post something like that please go into further detail and don't hide behind the anonymous post like that.
I love Commander and love Draft, but the voting is my least favorite feature ever implemented in spin the wheel an MTGO format.
