So the Comic Place near my house just started there limitless construction tournaments (any card from any set except goofy ones like unhatched) And some how my friends talked me into going to one in a few weeks and I am in desperate need of HELP!!! I run a G/R Power up/Shock deck. Il post the contents below

1x Book Burning
1x Dust Corona
1x Treetop Bracers
2x Blood Knight
2x Blaze
1x Banefire
1x Rakka Mar
1x Shah of Naar Isle
1x Fatal Frenzy
1x Volcanic Hammer
1x Lightning Axe
2x Giant Growth
1x Monstrous Growth
1x Lavacore Elemental
1x Magus of the Vineyard
2x Fog
3x Uktabi Drakes
1x Scattershot Archers
1x Riot Spikes
1x Evolution Charm
1x Grafted wargear
1x Nactl Outlander
1x Llanowar Augar
1x Whispersilk Cloak
1x Allosaures Rifer

1x Timbermare
1x Seal of Strength

Lands:
9x Forest
11x Mountains
1x Stomping Grounds
1x Llanowar Reborn
1x Skarrg the Rage Pits

Now one thing ive been seeing is that i have way too many singles of different cards and i was wondering if yall had any suggestions on which ones to increase and which to take out, or what cards to add.
I was thinking of adding a few Burning Tree Shamans, and Radha, Heir to Keld, as well as some Thornweald Archers. Im sorry about the huge post. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


P.S. Sorry if i posted in the wrong Forum sweatdrop

Alright, I don't know what your card limits are, however I think you should definately narrow down the variety a bit. Since the deck seems to rely on pumping creatures more than burning the opponent, I suggest you run 4 Giant Growths, however you could definatley add another 3 Book Burning and I would slip 4 Lightning Bolt in as well. I would use creatures like Llanowar Elves and Raging Goblins, because they are cheap and fast. A Raging Goblin + Giant Growth is like a 4/4 creature with Haste for only (2). You could always sink in a few other burn or beef spells that have a cheap cost. If you can get them, Muscle Bursts with Diligent Farmhands are good.

The purpose in running multiples of each card is to streamline the deck to reliably. However, if you are really worried about cards like Haunting Echoes, then you can replace some cards with similar yet different named cards. For example, you can use Shock and Tarfire - since they are both 2 damage for (1).

First off, wrong forum I believe.

Second, how broken can you get in this "limitless" format?

Third: decklist

4x Tarmogoyf
4x Umezawa's Jitte
4x Lightning Bolt
4x Incinerate
4x Troll Ascetic
2x Garruk Wildspeaker
2x Chandra Nalaar
4x Bloodhall Ooze
4x Wild Nacatl
4x Birds of Paradise
4x Noble Heirarch
4x Temple Garden
4x Stomping Ground
4x Sacred Foundry
4x Windswept Heath
4x Wooded Foothills

4th : Grab efficient creature that you have 3 or 4 of. Next grab red spells that deal damage to creature or player (both work well too). Then Green spells that pump more than one creature like overrun.

Step 1: Insert Bloodbraid Elf

Step 2: Take out everything you wouldn't want to run into with Bloodbraid Elf.

=x Eh, I'm not sure if I'm too late to doctor this list up - it has been over a month since it was made..
