Darklight Storm
Decklist: https://moxfield.com/decks/kd_c2CRreEaGeWjGcJJ7GQ
Hello everyone, I've been trying some new cards and this one has been the most fun/effective so far. I basically took reanimator storm that I've been playing for quite a bit and added Darklight Phoenix.
How does black reanimator storm usually win:
The turn one win goes like this: Reanimate an Atraxa -> Get bunch of cards -> Culling the Atraxa -> Reanimate Atraxa Again -> Tendrils, usually from a beseech
Why darklight is really nice here:
Firstly, this deck gets to 4 black mana really easily, so you can Buried Alive + Reanimate Atraxa (and two little phoenix go to your yard too!). Basically extra entombs.
You also sometimes whiff on the turn one kill, but this basically guarantees you are at least be getting an Atraxa and a few birds going.
You can also easily just put 3 birds in play turn one. The most common way is to Culling anything+ grief + buried and thats it, a mini fantastic car.
Lastly, I like how it makes Necropotence less bad. In the usual deck since you can't gain life you are basically screwed if you go to 7 life because it makes you unable to reanimate Atraxa. Here you can still do the bird thing at low life. You can even throw in a non lethal tendrils since you still got the birds wincon. It's more resilient.
Closing thoughts:
Yes, it's no tier one deck, bur it's really fun. I'm gonna build a sideboard to try it out on bo3 soon. The hard part of bo3 is usually the graveyard hate. I like having a sideboard plan of either going aggroish with goyf or something with doomsday. Will see what i will do with this one.
I'm probably gonna post something soon too about Extrapolate the Impossible ANT and maybe Lurrus Strip Lock with Carnivorous Cultivator + Marwyn
See ya!
