okay, the strategy for this deck is very simple, very plain, very easy to understand. ok, if you start the game with two mana of the same color, discard your hand unless you have a signet or a terramorphic expanse or a way to sustain your self for sometime before you can draw a blue mana, because this deck seems to really suckif you don’t have both colors out by second turn, or something like that. use the cry’s usually on the opponents creature. this is fun. Use an abyssal in play, play two cry’s, haunting the opponents creature, the last gasping it to make them discard 2x again, and attack them for ten...not bad for only like 4 to 6 mana... um, if you draw a diabolic tutor, you would usually want to go for one of the leylines, either singularity or void, depending on the condition of your hand. if you have circu in your hand, why not go for cingularity. if you have the informants in your hand, go for void...its all based on your hand. you should be able to keep a full hand, never ever with this deck rely on topdecking, you usually never end up getting that which you want/need. and the reason the misquito is in there is because its both a blocker for flying and a way to end the game if you get tired of milling. ok, now with the sideboard. Phthisis is usually only for MONO GREEN decks, non elves or squirrels because since green is infamous for its mana producing capabilities, if they pull out a 13/13 cloudscaper, phthisis is instant game for either 2 mana or 7, but still crazy. Convolute is easy, more counterspells. pull out singularity for abyssal in sideboard and psychic drain if your going against an oath deck. also, mindleech and szadek are good for oathing. and the draw cards are pretty explanatory....if the deck is running slow, pull those cards in. well, thats my deck

1-ofs make me cry.

A few things....

1) See above

2) 4 signets are amazing.

3) Leylines are risky/bad.

4) Cry of contrition doesn’t have a turn one haunt target, so I don’t like it much. Stupor is better.

5) Hunted horror is bad unless you’re playing repeal.

Do those things and you can have a much neater, cleaner decklist.
