Most of the decks are either complete theory or easily killed:

Math Sucks:
4x Legendary creatures are nonsense.

Enchanter:
Welcome to a destruction-spell or gain-control-spell.

Gonorrhea:
You don't know Metalworker + Voltaic Construct

Migraine:
Wrong title & no Teferi's Puzzle Box???

Eye Candy:
Welcome to a disenchant,

Jet Drain:
20 land + many rituals =/= victory.

.... and so on.
So why do you think these decks are multiplayer decks??? Ever tried to drain 3 opponents to death???

So if you really have these cards... and build those decks, I only can feel sorry for you.

Hey don't mess with him. At school he kills people in multiplayer games.

Any deck is vulnerable. Even a powered deck can be screwed on the draw. I will address your points.

Math Sucks: Theme and the redundancy lets me recover from kill spells.
Enchanter: Mommy or good for them.
Gonorrhea: I hate cheesy infinite combos. They are fun once.
Migraine: Modified Migraine pre-con. TPB = not bad, I'll think about that.
Eye Candy: Very few here are playing anti-enchantment cards. I am educating them.
Jet Drain: I can absolutely drain 3+ players to death. The manabase powers out Decree of Pain, draws massively, and drains/swings for the win.

I absolutely own these cards and built these decks.
Save your pity. I enjoy playing the game. It doesn't kill me if another player wins a game. I win my share and more. Most of the games I lose are to my decks borrowed by other players.

Have a nice day. :D

Well.......my closet is filling up with bodies and my FusionBot (tm) powered cooling system has been twitchy lately.
Some kids are starting to notice a smell.

Yes, I am a teacher. I play to win and I win my share, but I don't do it by outspending the kids. I self regulate power levels and try to help students win...if I'm not going to win.
It's all part of my plan to rule the world.

No offense mate, but i don't see a great amount of variation or originality in your decks. I took a lot through all your multiplayer decks and virtually everything follows the same game plan- either the 'Big Mana/ Big Spell' route, or some sort of War by Attrition deck - pox, bleeder etcetera.
Honestly you dont need 20 decks all entirely the same do you? I think you'd be fine with only 3 or 4.

THe only original deck i can see in the whole lot is Bloody Morder.
That actually is something original, something that 4 billion people havent come up with before. I bet it'd be a blast to play- the Jokulmorders are an especially nice touch (Math Sucks looks ok too, but it still follows the Big Mana style of play, which has been done before far too many times).
If you can build a deck like that, i'm sure you're capable of a lot better. You should stop wasting your time building decks based entirely around Fireball, Drain Life, Subversion and Pox- or posting those ideas up here, because any serious multiplayer person came up with those years ago and would refrain from commenting.
Time to think outside the box man.

First, cool name.
Second, ouch. Scathing criticism, but it has validity. I have a bit of a Timmy streak to my Johnny, I suppose.
-I don't like critter based decks much.
-I don't like infinite or cheesy combo decks.
-This limits what I will do tremendously.
Third, No love for Green Machine? Niv-Mizzet Izzet? Migraine?
Fourth, I think my 1v1 and loaner decks may be a bit higher on the originality scale. Epic Trinkets for instance.


Thanks for eyeballing the lists.
