Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"This bracket 2 deck aims to replicate Denethor sitting behind the seven walls of Minas Tirith, sending out one soldier after another to try and quell the advance of Mordor's armies. It does this by combining a sacrifice drain theme, with a pillow fort sub-theme. I also tried to keep as many game plan relevant LOTR and Hobbit set cards as possible. \n\nThis deck's main goal is to drain the opponents life totals at the table by constantly sacrificing tokens, combined with when creatures die drain effects. The deck has a lot of ways to sacrifice creatures, as well as, token generation to maintain a steady stream of sacrifice fodder. I didn't want to add any major recursion or non-token sacrifice cards to the deck, because I wanted it to fell more like sending out your limited expendable soldiers to die round after round, hoping collectively it will be enough before your opponent's forces inevitably overwhelm you. \n\nThe other key to this deck is defense, so that its slow drain win condition isn't too outpaced. To do this the deck employs seven pillow fort cards, mirroring the seven walls of the white city of Minas Tirith. In addition, the deck can also use its excess tokens to chump block anything that does manage to get through, like the Olog-hai. \n\n\nAn aside about the creation of the deck: \nThis deck is actually a combination of two of my favorite decks I have in paper. A simpler "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Denethor, Ruling Steward"}},{"insert":" sacrifice/drain deck I built on a $40 budget and my pillow fort/stax "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Faramir, Prince of Ithilien"}},{"insert":" deck, that gives me benefits whether my opponents attack or don't (kind of a head I win tails you lose). I really like how the combination of these decks worked out and I would probably switch my in paper Denethor deck to this one, if it didn't step on the gameplay toes of the Faramir deck (my favorite deck and an evolution of the first deck I ever built when I started playing magic about 2 years ago). \n"}]}
