Bargain Basement Brewery - Episode 5 - The Legion - 8-22-13

Follow me on twitter (@magicpokey)

Join Magicpokey as he pilots an Assemble The Legions token deck in the MTGO Modern practice rooms.  Will he muster an army large enough to crush his opponents?  Or will he suffer the shame of defeat on the battlefield?  Tune in to find out!



As always, after the jump I'll post the decklist:


(Modern) The Legion - Magicpokey

-Main Deck-

Creatures:4
4 Young Pyromancer

Spells:32
3 Dragon Fodder
3 Intangible Virtue
3 Krenko's Command
4 Lightning Helix
2 Martial Coup
4 Lingering Souls
2 Oblivion Ring
3 Raid Bombardment
4 Day of Judgment
4 Assemble the Legion

Lands:24
6 Mountain
5 Plains
2 Swamp
4 Terramorphic Expanse
3 Vivid Crag
4 Vivid Meadow

-Sideboard-
4 Angel's Grace
3 Ancient Grudge
3 Batwing Brume
2 Oblivion Ring
3 Solemn Offering

Total Cost: $10.82 at www.MTGOTraders.com (as of 8-22-13)

Notes:
- I know I went $0.82 over budget this week, but the only reasonable cut to stay in budget was a lingering souls, and I think this deck really needs those.  82 cents really isn't that much, if you use the bots on MTGO then I'm sure you've got that laying around in store credit already.
- The deck is a lot of fun to play, making dudes, dudes, and more dudes, but be wary, if you have more than one intangible virtue on the field, all of your raid bombardments are dead draws.

I hope you enjoyed this episode of the Bargain Basement Brewery!  Feel free to leave a comment in the comments section below, and if you want to subscribe, well, that'd be okay too!

Tune in next week when I take a look at Budget Planeswalkers!
