| MTG: Magic The Gathering - Ravnica Starter Deck - Dimir Intrigues
The "Dimir Intrigues" deck will twist your opponent's head around and around . .
. and maybe even off! Your opponent starts the game with 60 cards and 20 life.
By the time the game ends, one of those two totals will be down to zero—and you
don't care which one it is. (Remember: If a player has to draw a card and can't,
that player loses the game.) The transmute mechanic lets you find the perfect
card for any situation, ensuring that one way or the other, you'll emerge
victorious.
While other decks spend their early turns playing creatures,
you'll spend your early turns bumping off those creatures. The "Dimir Intrigues"
deck has plenty of creature removal, and spells like Last Gasp and Disembowel
will help you weather the early storm. Soon you'll start to increase your life
total with Ribbons of Night and Psychic Drain, and summoning high-toughness
creatures like Vedalken Entrancer and Belltower Sphinx can keep you safe.
But these creatures do more than protect you—they also shrink your
opponent's library to nothing! Let your opponent fight an impossible battle by
trying to win the game with damage. You've got a different plan. Your opponent's
library is defenseless, and you can assault it with creatures like Vedalken
Entrancer and Lurking Informant, as well as with spells like Psychic Drain and
Induce Paranoia. If you manage to play the powerful Szadek, Lord of Secrets,
your opponent's library will be gone in no time.
Wizened Snitches
reveals what's on top of both players' libraries, which is great in this deck.
You'll know when to transmute one of your cards to shuffle your own library, and
you'll know when you can knock a good card off your opponent's library! Lore
Broker and Dimir Guildmage also let you dig deeper into your library to find the
best card to foil your opponent's plans.
