hey all, i just recognized that the deck i currently use for platinum farming is not documented for now.

this deck combines the well known styles of the Otyugh and the DiscordBlackHole Combo with the Shard of Focus GravityPull meatshield.
please tell me if you just know that this deck is not new and alrdy posted somewhere.

Pretty interesting. The only problem I see is that while 3 Discords and 5 Black Holes can stall a mono/duo opponent for the first 8 turns (maybe 5 if rainbow), if they're not dead by then they'll easily get back in the game because their pillars (except maybe by SoFo) aren't being destroyed. In the case of your deck, you remedy this by replacing the standard rush cards (Charger) with a lot of control/stall cards (Maxwells, Otyugh+CP, SoFo+GP). I don't know how well that'd work, and if you can kill them with 2 Chargers and an Overdriven SoFo before they get the ball rolling. Another thing I find strange is that you almost exclusively rely on SoFo for the BH, so I wonder how well you fare against rainbow rushes because they can probably get their creatures and CC out before you get to BH them.

All in all, good mod; I don't think it's been done before.

most of the times it works pretty well.
damage comes from the otyughs and chaospower.... if you get it to work, u got simply the full control cuz the opponent cannot play any permanents.
perfect when the SoFo gravity pulled can destroy a permanent every single turn and gets 15 damage per turn.
the maxwell demon is also just for fun and optional. in the most cases the otyugh + chaos power will eat everything

Yeah, I guess it depends on the meta. Wouldn't 12x Fire Lances and 8x Rage Elixirs from the previously relatively common Mono-Fire deck kinda screw you over by demolishing your Otyughs and SoFos? What about PDials? They don't really use much quanta to get denied, and wouldn't they poison you before they get killed?

No deck is perfect...there's always a weakness.

yesm but for me, its the best deck (means most successful). it works vs quit alot of different plat decks.
of course u can mod things like take one otyugh more but the main idea is to up the otyughs and dbh combo the enemy to death

The "how to" in the platinum league is really misunderstanding.
The deck that are usually played in there are capable to deny everything mostly in the first three-five turns.
The beauty of the swallow-BH decks are to overturn the match even if denied in the first turns on quanta and permanents.
Now it has to be said. While a duo in that league usually has its difficulties to be assembled and well played (except for the patiences versions) the add of a discord has awesome capacity to take control of the remaining turns to make the most matches stable in terms of speed.
I found this deck brilliant, but if you own 2 or 3 gravity nymphs i would certainly add them to screw the speedbows when it comes the time.
Saved this page on my chrome favs, ill check up how it really works adding the nymphs.

Yeah I've seen this deck before, well all the compounds of it, but as a 30 card deck.

Thanks to skotadi for saying this in chat. Made me laugh pretty hard, and fits with me not getting drafted. :silly:
