5C Elemental for PTQ
«

July 14, 2008, 12:15:45 PM »
Considering I had the entire mana base the soulstokes larks and was only really missing the primal beyonds and the cloudthreshers I decided when the PTQ comes to Orlando, that I'd run Elementals. Here's the work in progress.
// Lands
4 [MOR] Primal Beyond
3 [SHM] Wooded Bastion
3 [SHM] Fire-Lit Thicket
3 [FUT] Graven Cairns
4 [SHM] Reflecting Pool
3 [LRW] Vivid Crag
4 [SHM] Mountain (2)
// Creatures
3 [MOR] Reveillark
3 [LRW] Mulldrifter
2 [LRW] Cloudthresher
1 [LRW] Wispmare
4 [LRW] Shriekmaw
4 [LRW] Incandescent Soulstoke
4 [LRW] Smokebraider
4 [LRW] Flamekin Harbinger
2 [LRW] Horde of Notions
// Spells
2 [LRW] Makeshift Mannequin
3 [SHM] Firespout
4 [LRW] Nameless Inversion
// Sideboard
SB: 1 [LRW] Mulldrifter
SB: 2 [LRW] Cloudthresher
SB: 3 [LRW] Wispmare
SB: 1 [SHM] Firespout
SB: 4 [SHM] Fulminator Mage
SB: 4 [SHM] Faerie Macabre
SB needs work i think the Faerie Macabre is going to be a great choice with retrace running rampant and with quick n toast running lark. Also i have 2 Cascade Bluffs That will be worked in once Eventide is legal.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

it is extremely rare i dont have the right colors i need to cast. I went to a local standard tourny tonight and went 3-1 and got top 4 and my only loss was too a super control deck that ran mostly timespirl block cards and he was a VERY VERY good player (he also got top 4), i actually ran into 3 kithkin decks my next 3 rounds 2 of which were block (aside from 2 WOGs in one of the decks)
0-2 Control
2-0 Kithkin
2-0 Kithkin
2-0 Kithkin
Talk is that with 4x Cascade Bluffs you could out the makeshifts for 2x Cryptic Commands and then shriekmaws if you want more.

Personally.
I would drop 2 shriekmaws, and in place put in 2 chameleon collosus or hateflayer
Couple eventide cards I think elementals can do well with is,
New Ashling-4/4 for 4, fairly easy to cast, and the sacrifice effect is pretty good, definately a good way to reduce their creatures.
Also Hateflayer, I am think on turn 5, if you can incandescant him out, and then untap for the damage well, you are going to have a strong turn
Like this deck.
Another small substitution, personal preferance here, 1 extra Makeshift, 1 less Nameless
Anyway GL!
