Hey everyone,

I've got a challenge for everyone: Do you think you could come up with a competetive deck that is made up entirely of common and uncommon cards (the cheaper the better)?
Do you think you could come up with a decent deck without rares/mythic rares?

Good luck!

edit: Let's use deckstats.net/index.php for deck price calculations to make it fair.

devo, pull the thought scours for a trinket mage package (silver inlaid dagger, memnite, elixir of immortality). Probably have to cut the latch seekers also.

No ghost quarters; use evolving wilds.

Do you think maybe we should evaluate people's decks by giving them marks out of 5 (5 being the 'best')?
