Hello, this is the first deck I've ever posted here. Usually I simply craft the strongest lists, but lately I've been wanting to tinker with Strangers, being a big fan of Slivers in MtG. And since I had extra dust the other day, which is not common for me, I decided to make this deck.
My idea was simple : use the strong Time strangers that boost your Sliv... I mean Strangers. That would be
Determined Stranger,
Battle-Tested Stranger.
Magnificent Stranger is too strong a turn 2 not to be included, and of course he may very well let you play
Grodov's Stranger on turn 4.
Another strong turn 2 is
Varret, Hero-in-Training, which will rush his mastery if he happens to be boosted by the other Strangers.
I've of course thrown in
Traver's Farm, the Stranger's site, to tutor other helpful but rather situational Strangers, that I don't want in x4 in the deck (not enough space for 4 copies of them, either). So there's Aegis and Flying if I need them, for evasion or protection : that's
Meditative Stranger and
Soaring Stranger.
Then I needed removal and fast spells to surprise my opponent. So I threw in
Permafrost (good cheap removal, my boy Pacifism),
Equivocate (other cheap removal that prevents Entomb effects), and then
Stand Together seemed very important to me because this is a minion based deck, and one or two dead Strangers may very well prevent you from winning. Finally
Aamri's Choice seems like a good choice card to either surprise your opponent or silence a powerful minion.
Combrei Stranger is a question mark for me here, I've thrown him in cause he's a Stranger and he helps fixing influence.
The market is pretty standard as well I think : I'll take
Nahid's Distillation for card draw 90% of the time. There's a relic killer as well. More card draw from
Sodi's Spellshaper and
Fortunate Stranger.
Well, I've put some thoughts into this deck and I'd very much appreciate constructive criticism if you think this can be improved. Thanks!
