v0rac10u5’s Deck Garage
Counting Sheep
May 12, 2008

Hello there again Mr. v0rac10us, tis I calling about my newly remade Ovinomancer deck which i have greatly changed since i last emailed you so i hope you havent yet looked at the original because i think you might like this new one better. The strategy is still the same, get out a Braids Conjurer Adept or both of them with the Paradox Haze combo to flood the field with creatures and/or mana (if indeed that is a legal move) and then hit my opponent over and over with the Ovinomancer to send all their creatures out of play for 0/1 tokens. But this time i decided to allow the creatures them selves to run most of the drawing efforts and then focused my non creature spells on countering and mana acceleration. I also re-adjusted the creature base as well because the last time i had forgotten about a few of the cards I had in my big stack of blue and i added some new blood in there. The only problems left are just getting the cards out there that i need and in a hurry, so if you see any organizational problems or things that are interfering with speed please comment. So here's the list. 

 

Creatures 18

 

2x Braids Conjurer Adept

2x Ovinomancer

3x Looter il Kor

3x Spiketail Drakeling

4x Fathom Seer

4x Sage of Epityr 

 

Spells, Enchants etc. 18

 

4x Paradise Plume ( Like the gain life over Prismatic Lens)

2x Convolute

2x Counterspell

3x Spell Burst

3x Train of Thought (Like the replicate here)

4x Paradox Haze

 

Lands 24

 

24x Island

 

Your deck isn’t half bad, but it does have a lot of room for improvement. First, splash green for Rights of Flourishing. It allows you play your extra land back and draws you extra cards. I’d also like to see you add in Savor the Moment. It will let you drop extra land, draw extra cards, and get an extra Braids trigger. Also, since Paradox Haze gets an extra counter off of suspended cards, try adding in Ancestral Visions and Search for Tomorrow. Also, Mulldrifter and Riftwing Cloudskate are much better than Sage of Epityr and Fathom Seer. I’ve also added a couple of Chameleon Colossus, as it is both a sheep and a wolf. FYI, this decklist is entirely Standard legal.
