Cranial
White - Promise of Bunrei: I run a white weenie deck, and some of you may know that White Weenie is fast, bringing out a lot of creatures. Most of them are weak, and some of them will die. So, sac the Bunrei and put 4 1/1 spirit tokens into play. With a few Glorious Anthems, its a great way to get some strong creatures.

Blue - Twincast: Again, a great counter card, except you don't really counter. Wouldn't it be fun to copy a Cranial Extraction and use against someone who tried to use it against you?

Black - Persecute: Against single color decks, this is the most deadly card for black. It only costs 4, and you name a color, then your opponent discards all cards of that color from his or her hand. You can't beat that!

Red - Blazing Shoal: For some reason, I love this card. I once beat an MUC deck using a combo with 2x Blazing Shoals, removing 2x Myojin of Infinite Rages to add +20/+0 to a 1/1 creature.

Green - Troll Ascetic: This thing is god. Tap 3 mana to bring out a 3/2 creature that can't be the target of spells or abilities, and it can regenerate itself. It's too awesome!

Artifact - Umezawa's Jitte: I combined this card to my troll, and eventually it became an unstoppable creature. Jitte owns!


You think a Jitte is bad..play against a Metalworker. THATS some ******** up s**t.

Lightning bolt loves to kill 1/1s...and 2/2s...and 3/3s. ha ha!.

Anyway, yeah, stuff. Your choices are pretty interesting. You a new player?

white has alot of cards that equalize, like wrath, final judgement, and mageta, think of akroma as whites nastiest big creature, and she equalizes the playing field for the white weenies, plus i really dont have a good argument for her to be mentioned as white sweatdrop

thats because she is an annomily. even the other gigantic cards in white are nowhere near that massive. and most of them are more defensive if they re that massivly mutated. i mean look at Jareth or like you said Mageta. not really meant for continuous attacking. (at least Jareth isn't) Akroma is the biggest mistake that Wizards ever printed in white. (and you know damn well that i don't count kickers and invasion block cards. i mean pure color cards without kickers)

im sory but i just dont agree with any of those cards representing those colors, except last stand none of those cards are good at representing those colors, blue a prodigal sorcerer ???, i mean come on blue doesnt plink it screws people over not plink for a measly one damage
Green+krosan tusker, WTF there are plenty of other good green cards out there that are recent, like plated slagwurm, or maybe if u wanna go older, how about a defense of the heart or a avatar of might maybe, even the green myojin from champions is a better green card to mention
Red=sparksmith, how about a blistering firecat or a kilnmouth dragon both are way better choices, or spark elemntal for those on a budget HELLO what were u thinking
White, i guess ghostly prison represents a small part of white strategy, but why not wrath, beacon of immortality, or a humble or sumthing
Black= hypnotic specter is way better than silent specter

sorry for sounding like an a**, i really apologize for this dude, but those cards really dont represent those colors that good, again im sorry for flaming u but dude come on u could have come up with better cards than that sweatdrop

White: Glorious Anthem (whole purpose of white weenie, or any mono-white deck for the matter)
Blue: Bribery (wheelin' and stealin')
Black: Phyrexian Arena (suicide for advantage)
Red: Viashino Sandstalker (hit and run)
Green: Birds of Paridise (not too knowledgeable about green, but this is basicly it: green is the color of all colors)

Hmm... I'd have to say for Red it is Pyrotechnics, Lava Axe, Lava Blast, or any of the cards dealing with Lava, Magma, or Fire.

White I would go with Doubtless One or Akroma.

Blue... hmm... that's tough... I'll go with Wall of Illusion or Wind or Water elemental.

Black... god... definately going with Maggot Therapy.

Green, one of my new favorites, would have to be Llanowar Elf, Explosive Growth, any Tree Folk or Thorn Elemental.

I know I said many more than 5... but I just couldn't stop.

i don't know what to say about red, but white..whats up with people naming white as akroma? she seems more of a mix between RGW with all of her abilities. Blue, none of those cards that you named fit into the main idea behind blue. blue is about counter-striking, adding resources (card draw), and minimizing what your opponent can do....you named a wall that can be a 2/2 creature and attack, a 4/4 flying attacker, and a 5/4 attacker. i don't see what fits into blue here. black does work, and green i can see what you mean but if you had to choose. you would probably pick power over the elves. right?

v.v I haven't been able to check into new series in awhile... as for choosing power instead of elves... LOOK AT THE POINTY EARS! *pops the helm off for a sec to show them before putting it back on* Besides, I've seen an elf take down alot of other creatures. As for mentioning Akroma... it was the first white angel I could think of... though if I could find my white deck I coulda named a different card that I think is much better.
