This deck is remarkably simple and remarkably effective.  You get out fast poison, build up 8-10 poison counters, and then they kill all of your stuff.  You then hide behind the incredible defensive power of Shard of Gratitude+Permafrost Shield for 15 or so turns, and they die.

It works with remarkable regularity.  The power of Permafrost+Healing simply cannot be denied -- and when you can do all of the necessary offense before the enemy can get his defenses up, 'sit back and chill' becomes a totally valid strategy.

Unfortunately, this deck won't work un-upped due to the necessity of Puffer Fish, not Toad Fish....

I thought farmers were about speed or EMs or both. You said this is about stalling once creatures are killed, so it must be an EM deck, because you can't have a speed stall deck. Does this EM if poison hits first?

It doesn't do EM and it doesn't kill fast and also lose against fire shield.

I would use Chrysora instead of Physalis.

I never said this was a farming deck.  It's a half-blood killer, just to prove that mono-Water can totally do it.

I'd never farm with this. 8)

Oh, thanks for the clarification.

Halfbloods don't steal?
If they steal or explode your permanents (you don't have ANY protection), then they simply outdamage/heal you.

Yeha but only 24 out of 144 actually deflag and steal.
