FAE laughs in the face of thorn of amethyst,

like this,

non fae player:"i play thorn of amethyst"

faerie player:"muahahahaha, i can function with non creature spells a turn slow, can you?"

another great show ... thanks

[vmknut4]

if i chose to evoke it

(look at the bottom to see why i'm saying it)

(at the bottom of comment)

[vmknut4]

it runs like a revilark deck,

but i added a few cards (like nettle seintenel to make it faster) and took out cards like revilark, which i felt were too slow with all of the pancake flippers, Qasali Ambushers, and sigied palidin.

(plus with thorn of amytheist that might break play, i thought it would be too late once i put of revilark)

[idunnocuzimawesome]

don't know why nobody counts wheel of sun and moon for rev hate, we're kinda past relevance after states, but that was my sideboard tech

[vmknut4]

i don't like a revilark

so i'm coming up with a "white weenie on steroids" deck. it focuses on bant. but i use some elves, and cats.
