Nice take on the deck. I have been playing a version of David Yoe’s Scapeshift deck for some time. Haven’t had any time to modify it at all.
But I really like the direction you are taking it. Looking forward to taking your version for a spin.
The thing I like about this article is that it spells out the constraints you were looking at when you built the deck. The individual card considerations were also valuable, but I think your discussion in broad strokes about where a Scapeshift deck can go was really neat.
By the way, Meloku is a DUDE, dude.
@Neoshinji, I have discussed the deck quite a bit with David Yoe. I saw him playing it in the same PE I split with Trolls, which was the second PE I made T8. I believe he took most of the base of my deck from my first T8. When I saw we were both playing the deck I chatted to him about it and we exchanged lists, which is when I decided to add some more blue to get Jace in the deck. I didn’t like the idea of running all the counterspells though that he had at the time because most of the other decks were still fairly aggro at that point.
@Zimbardo
Thanks, I wanted to do something different than just a card by card because I think it is valuable to see how and why those cards got included as well as why a certain direction was chosen. I think this helps people trying to build new decks more than just showing the final product.
I’m pretty sure we’ve played and you’ve stolen game wins from me with scapeshit…I mean scapeshift =P Nice article =)
