As these cells dry the lands.
You foolishly seek to appease,
but they will not rest, until the rest have withered away.


You think you can fight,
the drought of might.
When you have none to spare.


I give you a light,
but at the price,
That I will end your days.

Strategy
Spoiler for Hidden:
Top priority is filling a field with cells.
You then want to play Skull Shield so you aren't run over by the cells.
Soon after the field is full of cells, you might want to play a boneyard, thus allowing you to chain together 2 dry spells.
Assuming you have had an Arsenic poisoning them and lowering their health, you can hopefully now finish them off with the Ice Bolts.



Modifications
Spoiler for Hidden:
  • You can optionally replace the boneyards with vultures to get a super attacker, at the cost of not chaining together dry spell (if your using unupped ones, you must play them before the aflatoxined creature dies).
  • Bonewalls are great, however I have not found what to replace with them.
  • For Otk possibility, you can do -2 Arcenic, +1 Ice Bolt, +1 Mummy.
  • Any other modifications may be added if suggested and found to be working.

If you upgrade the boneyards and the boneyards only, this deck would be far more powerful.
Flooding would be a somewhat decent addition too, but that would require a few more work-arounds.

I have found upgraded version is nice, however it does mean you have to wait till turn 4 to play dry spell, unless you replace some pillars with pends.

I've played around with the deck a little - I really like the concept, the struggle I've found is that it can be slow to get off the mark and either high HP creatures or weapons are very challenging for the deck to deal with.

You need to have 2 dry spell and a graveyard and have played Aflatoxin and waited for it to fill the field - and there's not much stall the deck provides to get you to that point. It's all combo component's, or win condition. I was forced on a couple occasions to use bolts (your win condition) as CC to give me an extra turn or two. The problem at that point is I can no longer win, because I used my win condition to buy me the extra turns.

I don't feel like I'm being too helpful, while I do really like the deck idea, I don't see much hope of making it work unupped. Upped or at least partially upped it may be a different story.
