Majiya's Wisdom

[Erashadow]

I'm used to playing Magic the Gathering so I made this deck 60 cards. I'm not including the Majiya in the total because she isn't actually in the deck when you play. Let me know what you think. This is a digital deck that I built and it does rather well unless you are facing Darkclaw, Moonstalker, Zaladar, or Elementalis.

So here is my decklist!

Hero: Majiya new art

Allies:
Deathbone X4
Plasma Behemoth X2
Fire Snake X2
Belladonna X4
Bad Wolf X4
Hellsteed X4
Death Mage Thaddeus X1
Ogloth the Glutton X1
Twisted Familiar X2
Io Void Leviathon X1


Abilities:
Bloodthirsty X1
A Legend Falls X1
Word of the Prophet X1
Assumed Command X1
Dark Revelations X2
Fireball X4
Lightning Strike X4
Engulfing Flames X1
Tome of Knowledge X1
Arcane Burst X3
Bloodlust X4
Here Be Monsters X4
Shadow Font X2
Rain Delay X2
Bazaar X2
Bad Santa X2

Welcome to the game. Look, it's a nice name for a Majiya deck...but it's not wise to have 60 cards in it. Think about your strategy and cut 18-20 cards.

[Warr Byrd]

Really not wise to have that many one-ofs and so little draw in a sixty card deck.

[Shadowborn]

If you see a 60 card deck on QM, you know, for sure that that guy's a MtG player :P

[AClDvision]

There are a dew 55 plus decjs in the 300s but 2 of them r mill stalkers the ither is a b oris I think his name is heatblood

[Rayzie]

Yeah heatblood plays a fat Boris and does surprisingly well with it. I've been paired with him 2 or 3 times. Any other 50+ decks you see at 300 are probably me, but my decks suck.

If you see a 60 card deck on QM, you know, for sure that that guy's a MtG player :P

As a general rule people that have been playing MTG for a long time Usually keep their deck around the minimum number of cards that is allowed in whatever format the'yre playing. This is because they realize that they want to Decrease how much variance will affect them Over the course of the game, And make them that much more likely to draw their crucial cards whenever they need them.

Also, the typical MTG deck is about ~ 1/3 land (ie cards that give you the resources to play your spells and creatures.) Since in Shadow Era any card in your hand can be used as a resource, It essentially eliminates the need for that third of your stack of cards. So you essentially take away the need for lands, and you're left with a game which is very similar, but in which a 40 card deck allows you with nearly all the space you need.

(Basically I'm agreeing with everything that you're saying, but trying to put it in universal terms/ convince this guy to drop down to about 40 cards)
