The total is everything but the Ageless Entity since I bought them off of Ebay.
I got it for $35 which is THERE COST. Inferno-Spirit and Vorago will be blown away since they know how my boss is when it comes to money.

Here is the Excel file with Hyperlinks to all the cards named above

The deck stalls with Sun Droplet and Pulse of the Tangle until an Ageless comes out which gets really big, really fast. Whispersilk Cloak or the Loxodon Hammer are there to help finish the guy off if necessary. I'm pretty sure the deck can work. The only decks that would give it problems are Blue, Affinity (12 card sideboard against it), and White Death (sideboard has 3 Second Sunrises in it).

You should try to add in Pulse of the Field if you can. It is such a nasty card against any sort of Red burn or wenie decks. "Oh did you just deal ten dmg to me? Well I just gained 8 of it back.=P"

If you are running wells, you might as well go for Words of Wisdom (i think thats the white one). Thats a healthy little mini-combo.

You meant Words of Worship... douchebag .

Ya. I was thinking that since it would be a nice +5/+5 to +30/30 for my Ageless, but I had nothing to take out and I don't really need the life, so I left it out.

Fuck no. Droplets make elves and goblins not hurt you as much in the beginning. IF I get 2 of those things out then I can hardly be attacked at all. With Words of Worship, I don't get to draw and if I pull an extra words then it becomes a useless draw.

How exactly do 2 droplets save you from elves or gobbos? Gaining 2 life a turn isnt that effective when looking at a Piledriver on the other side of the table. And ever since the release of skullclamp, gobbo-bidding is one of the best decks in type 2. I honestly dont believe that sun droplets are going to save you. Sure the extra words is dead, but you dont start activating it until you have the well to go with it. the droplets are pretty dead all of the time.

I have a friend who thinks Sun Droplets are the shiznit or some crap.

I rape his ass every fucking time he plays that deck, because he thinks it negates damage.

Sun droplets are nice in a 3-4 player game (Since if you have two out, by the time the turn comes back to you, you've gained back 6 or 8 life), but as for 1v1.. it's not alltogether nice.

If I use Words of Worship I am dead against that situation since I am not drawing.

Keep in mind that sun droplet is during each player's upkeep. So yeah, that's two life for every one turn you have.. per sun droplet. Hence the point I was making above.

You dont have to skip the draw. You can pay to activate the Words so that you skip and gain 5, but arent req1uired to do so... so if you have a Well out, pay the damn mana... if you dont, draw the card. Wow... really hard.

I'd rather keep gaining life for free every turn! I am not afraid of Goblin decks because once I have 1 pulse it's over. With the gain life I have (which is Goblins worst nightmare), I'm pretty sure I can last long enough.

And Goblins are the best deck out there right now. They can kill ANY deck in 3 turns in type 2 no matter what deck the opponent is playing. I want to play something interesting. If I want a tournament winning deck that I would fork over the cash to get Type 2 Goblins and decimate everything.

Agreed.

Theres that one red enchantment that just rapes you as well.

Sulferic Vortex pwns you.

The Well/Words combo is cool though, too bad it sucks.

Ive seen goblin decks have it sideboarded so white control doesnt rape them.
