For those that don't know; Bob is a reference to a Magic card called Dark Confidant. It has been the corner stone of many efficient midrange decks. The printing of the big wheel has pulled me right back into eternal.
Our Bob is The Big Wheel. The big wheel has a small requirement to be played and an insane upside. Kill your opponent quickly or gain life and bury an opponent in low cost value city. This is a Midrange deck that follows the second idea.
I didn't track win Loss but i went diamond 3 to masters in a few hours with something like 30-7?
The deck doesn't do anything inherently broken; It is simply consistently a bit above average.
Game plan: Use the 7 hand hate spells to take away impactful cards and recuring zido to strip away hands. Use efficient creatures to apply pressure or stabilize your board and life while you grind someone out. Value train off The Big wheel, revenge creatures, and creature recursion till your opponent is dead.
I don't have energy to detail every card choice; please feel free to ask in the comments and ill do my best to answer any of them.
The general MO is below 4 power and strong utility in most matchups.
It's good to be back, see you all in game!
Tips: Save Zido for turns where each card in the opponents hand matters or the debt won't throw off your curve. Or red aggro/yetis. Slam that mf.
Similar concept for argenport noble.
Try to take things with from beyond and exploit that you can't handle with your deck normally. It might be better to take a card you can't answer than to disrupt their curve.
Argenport can silence the depth Charge relic from mono red. Its a clean answer.
The Big Wheel is your most powerful card. It will kill you the rare game. It will win you so many more.
Also because of the durdle nature of the deck for games that go long you're gonna have lots of power thanks to extra draws. A big bad finisher in the market like big svetya can help grindy games if you see yourself falling short in terms of unit quality in late game
I could see having a finisher in the market being useful. I'm not sure which one i'd want though or which card to replace. Def worth looking into though.
I'd also appreciate your feedback on my AAC deck I recently posted; that might be the list I try to polish out to be my S tier deck.
