No, not suicide black. He used a bunch of old cards that built up as the game progressed. And it progressed fast. It was just overall a really fast deck, a lot of 2/2 shadow creatures and protection from white creatures, it was like the exact opposite of a white cleric deck.

OK for that deck some suggestions of mine will depend on what type you are playing. If it evolves around artifacts it is bad. you might wana splash in a color or 2 since someone could easily shatterstorm and such.

But if you want to keep it at artifacts this is what I would suggest.

1 Sol Ring
4 Mishras Factory's
4 Jade Statues
4 Juggernaunts.

IMO I like all the cards. Maybe if I have the time I will write down the contents of my deck and make you all go wow hehehe...

If you ask for any more suggestions....uhhh I will try and check back every once and a while...

Tooth & Nail, Ravager, and Samurai are the bigger decks now in larger tournaments. Since Onslaught block dropped out of type-2 the diversity in decks has also dropped (no more better Blue/White Control, Elves, Goblins, etc)

Talking Type-1... many options to chose from. Many decks can be great and cheap also they just require more or a strategic mind. Of course blue/white is arguably the best type of decks to play. Propagandas, War Tax, Isochron Scepter with Boomerang or Counterspell, Wrath of God, Exalted Angel, Akroma, Decree of Justice, Eternal Dragons, Orim's Chant, etc... make very powerful decks!

No offense but Type I evolves at times around 2-5 colors since there is so may ways to pull stuff of nowdays. But it you think hard you could build an unstopable 1 color deck and such. Some key cards to think of for Type I are:

Maze of Ith
Sol Ring
Strip Mine
Ivory Tower
Black Vise

Other cards depends uppon your deck...

The best type I deck i've seen is either affinity in type 1, or tendrils.

I got first-turn killed by a Type-1 Charbelcher deck. I think that's the best deck I've ever actually seen. Power 9 and all. Course, that was a while ago, I'm not up to date at all.

Right now the Power 9 is way over priced and doesn't have much power anymore to Type I since there is so many combo's to stop it.

Ha, I've seen something scarier.

A deck built around time warp and time stretch.

Opponent: *takes ten turns*

Me: "Can I untap yet?"

Him: "NO!"

And as for sol rings, I know full well how good of a mana source they are. But since when was Onslaught dropped from type 2? More specifically, why?

Type 2 is only the last two blocks and the core set.

So that means its kamigawa, mirrodin, and 8th right now.

I've done worse. White Bringer and Mindslaver. You never get a turn, and I'll make sure you can never play anything.

As for good decks, I like Kallias' Underworld Dreams deck. Draw five cards, place your hand under your deck, and redraw your hand. Take four damage for every card you draw. Enjoy. XD
