Title: Djinn of Wishes/Sphinx of Jwar Isle/Inkwell Leviathan/Convincing Mirage
Post by: sharkey on January 25, 2010, 08:35:14 AM

So, you use Sphinx of Jwar Isle to see your top card of your draw deck, then play it for 4 with Djin of Wishes. Ideally, you'd play down something huge for 4, like an Inkwell Levaiathan. You then enchant one of their lands to an island and BAM! Unblockable 7/11 or 2 at turn 6. Some cancels and spell pierce would be great to speed the deck up a little. It's an idea, not a deck, as I do not have time to write it all here. But it's fun and interesting, and a total surprise to the opponent when you drop big unblockables. Any other huge creatures of any type that have a ____walk? Also, any cards that allow you to play cards from hand to top of draw deck would work well, as would cards like ponder and divine.

I've seen some people using that strategy to good extent by use of Summoning Trap, I think it may be a better approach. Fixed the title and the icon, by the way. Deck ideas (better yet, asking for them) should be marked with a question mark icon.

Ok, sorry. Yes, I love using this deck against people who believe Convincing Mirage to be the most worthless card ever.
