Lightning Helix

and Putrefy

, especially the latter, are an easy 4 of. Vigor Mortis

is copies 5-8 of Zombify

, if your deck is into reanimation. If you have the money, the rare dual lands are amazing, and with landcyclers and fetch lands will nearly guarantee you will never be color screwed.

Actually, this is the thread I was looking for, though the card choices listed throughout probably need to be updated for RAV, MirV and CSP.

STP definitely. But Tithe? I'm not sure a Rare from an underpurchased set will ever make the "staples" list (says the guy who just agreed on a card that's only available in Precon :P ).
I know I'm not gonna go looking to buy a playset of Tithes when Gift of Estates is less Rare and more plentiful.

For those that can't afford a playset of STP's from the secondary market, how about Condemn ?
And as long as we're adding cards from Ice Age Precons, how about [c]Brainsto wrote:

Brainstorm should definitely be listed, if you ask me.

Anyway, I've also got a question about building a prismatic deck.

How do you do it? What resolution do you have to run your computers on to get decent workability for 250 cards at a time. @_@;

Though I generally run at 1280x1024, I had no problem reading/manipulating the cards when I was using the old standard 1024x768.

Just remember the first time your library opens up in a window for searching, grab the lower right hand corner of that window and stretch it all the way down to the lower right hand corner of your screen. It should enlarge all the cards big enough to hover over individual ones to see them in the lower-left card view.

The best way to build a prismatic deck is to get someone with a .txt file to email it to you, then start from there. Or download one from magicthegathering.com. There have been various prismatic decks posted in articles.

Wow my first ever thread is still alive :D

I might try and re-start my deck.
As far as land goes for a budgettly build are the karoos good? and i suppose the csp duels with Into the north are worth a try right?

I've bought the cards and made a deck
Now how do I win at this?

I see a lot of karoos in Priz. And some of the Coldsnap Snow's, too. As pointed out ad nauseum in the Momir Basic thread, there's not really a downside to running all snow lands, except for Musher.
