and it was alright

1 Stoneshaker Shaman
4 Torpid Moloch

4 Volcanic Hammer
3 Boros Signet
3 Blood Moon
1 Stone Rain
4 Pyroclasm
2 Befoul
3 Thoughts of Ruin
1 Golgari Signet
1 Presence of the Wise
1 Icy Manipulator
2 Spectral Searchlight
4 Ghostly Prison
1 Dimir Signet
2 Stream of Consciousness
1 Life from the Loam

// Sideboard
SB: 1 Tin Street Hooligan
SB: 2 Demolish



I had originally wanted to make this some kind of Rakdos inspired deck
;p

Helldozer excites me... but he was too expensive in the end.

Thoughts of ruin plus ghostly prison is rather sick

How good the icy manipulater is depends alot on when you can tap their
creature to nullify the attack (i.e. the timing with the payment of the
cost with ghostly prison in play.. I'm a little unclear about that ;p)

Sea Stompy was a U/R deck i think (if memory serves), it did'nt make
top 32 or 16 I think.... the basic idea was interesting though.
Thoughts of Ruins, but with the signets in play. With counterspells and
creature to beat down (hence the stompy part... not sure abou tthe sea
part though ;p)

Oh the stoneshaker shaman is very powerful if he stays in play, the
trick is that he must come out before your opponent's "sweet spot", for
example, if your opponent's spells are mostly 3cc, if the stone shaker
come online at turn 2 for example (before your opponent gets his third
land). the stoneshaker can lock up the game pretty fast.

It is a very slow deck but once the LD starts, its amost a full lock

Kami of Ancient law might be a problem...

might be a big problem =)

Still the deck is made to burn through weenie, to really incapacitate
the deck you need to take out both the crane and the prisons (Zoo might
be able to pull it off for sure, but it will be at a real cost to the
pressure they can apply) That said, I think I need a faster way to
kill. Currently it locks down, till Adamaro or Seizan shows up.
Seizans' a hoot =)
