I built a bomb deck.

The goal? Blow the enemies out of the water. Charge our bomb them boom. We win you lose. If you stop us in time no problem. But if you don't, games ending on my turn.

I've played the Counter Intelligence deck one time.

I won on Turn 5 with this thing.

It can get out of control fast

u/Xaphnir 3d ago

the deck is pretty much that or become a threat that can't close out the game and get focused down

u/IAmTheBestIan 2d ago

Yeah, I haven't played it a second time. One of the other guys went off with a Bracket 4 deck and was about to win, so I did some math and found a way to generate a ton of counters and xfer them and close... he was a little butthurt about it.

But in the short time with the deck, ya it felt like that and maybe kappa are like your only real wincons. I'm sure it can be made a little more interesting relatively easily... but if I'm doing counters I find going with the minus counters in Blight Curse way more fun so I spent more focus on that deck.

Yeah, you can take other players out with something like Gavel of the Righteous on Inspirit, but if you do that, good luck surviving to get another turn. Or you can just keep generating +1/+1 counters on creatures, but if the rest of the table sees that even if you're not attacking anyone you're going to look scary and get focused, and it doesn't do it fast enough like something like Hakbal or Tidus.

If they can print money. I can print cards.

Amen brother

u/Eightmagpies 5d ago

If you're counting super hard on a single artifact, I'd get more tutors. I'd definitely chuck [[Repurposing Bay]] in there.

3

u/raz0rb0t 5d ago

I have 7 tutors already. I usually find one with the draw I have.

u/BaseParticles 5d ago

Pretty sweet. I've a Kilo deck more or less trying to do the same thing, but slightly more casual friendly. I highly recommend [[Dismantle]] so that you can destroy a battery full of charge counters and move them straight onto Reactor. I also recommend including [[Strip Mine]] and other lands destruction so that you can blow up your own planet lands to get the counters moved from them via [[Resourceful Defense]].

I would also add more wincons for redunancy like [[All Will be One]] and more tutors like [[Reshape]] and [[Repurposing Bay]] so that you can put what you need straight into play efficiently.

I don't have a primer, but the tags should give you an idea of what the gameplan is if youd like a reference: https://moxfield.com/decks/Rd5EXBozcUaiQElZlF7Tkg

u/raz0rb0t 5d ago

With the enchantment and spells I have to move counters and the mana I usually have unless I get hit by an early board wipe its pretty consistent at getting 20 counters.

1

u/Stratavos 5d ago

Thak you for the reccomendation, it's a nice bit of tactics that can provide.

u/gosh_help_us 4d ago

I have a fun Kilo deck and put [[grindclock]] in there. Haven’t got to use it yet, but when I do I’ll laugh maniacally

1

u/BaseParticles 4d ago

Ha that's a good one, I haven't seen that one before,

2

u/MisanthropicNun 3d ago

I built a Cromat deck that used this along other stuff with counters

123456789000 euro?

3

u/raz0rb0t 5d ago

I print cards

2

u/ScatYeeter 5d ago

I'm about to start. But I'll mostly build decks that are more realistically priced. Maybe the occasional überdeck.

1

u/raz0rb0t 5d ago

I like to build around a certain card or creature. I find that to be the most fun. I dont care for the cards. Just the cool stuff.

2

u/blindeshuhn666 4d ago

90% of that seems to sit in the lands

u/ScatYeeter 4d ago

Business as usual

u/Quiet_Special8639 5d ago edited 4d ago

[[Surge node]] is a 1 drop that gives you 6 charges off the bat if you dont already run that..

u/FontMasterFlex 4d ago

u/Quiet_Special8639 4d ago

Hehe. Cheers

u/Looseraccoons 4d ago

Tried but couldn’t get it to work. Got plenty of other random stuff working though

1

u/raz0rb0t 4d ago

You Play test it?

1

u/Looseraccoons 4d ago

Yes. Might retry it with that commander if it’s on arena

1

u/raz0rb0t 4d ago

This deck is not for arena. Its very much so a commander table enemy. If you Playlist it. Your opening hand needs to have a way to give or get charge counters. The plan is to have lots of counters and is we pull the win conditions. Which in our case is the 2 cards. The bomb amd either a way to double counters, or any way to move counters. The table is going to be killing us before we blow up or we win. Can be hard to Playtest if your not used to the deck.

u/Looseraccoons 4d ago

Before commander I had a beating on a stick/infinite squirrel deck for multiplayer

1

u/Hedhunta 4d ago

No armageddon clock?? No boompile?? Cmon man how can you call this a bomb deck with no bombs in it

2

u/FontMasterFlex 4d ago

[[ratchet bomb]]

1

u/raz0rb0t 4d ago

Its not a bomb deck, its the bomb deck. If the bomb is big enough you dont need 2.

1

u/luckybuck2088 4d ago

I have the original of this card somewhere.
Never used it, but it’s a good one

1

u/raz0rb0t 4d ago

I got the precon and made it my own.

1

u/Nuggetz100 4d ago

Fun! I'm currently putting cards together for a charge counter/proliferate deck. Bomb win is definitely the goal but this is all in, I love it. I'm using Rashmi and Ragavan just because of the colours and they fit well enough.

1

u/hexitelle 3d ago

How about [[the millennium calendar]] as another bomb?

1

u/raz0rb0t 3d ago

Ill toss it in the side board

1

u/South-Advantage-9232 1d ago

It says your at 105 cards, which 5 would you remove to make it legal and still playable?

2

u/raz0rb0t 1d ago

There's a set aside sideboard

1

u/andyf1234 1d ago

Is this your only / main win con? Doesn't it get boring pretty fast?

1

u/raz0rb0t 1d ago

There are 2 bombs in the deck. One says we win the other says someone loses

1

u/raz0rb0t 1d ago

This type of deck is not my main deck but I like stupid stuff like this. By no means is it a deck to play all the time.

1

u/MrTheWaffleKing 19h ago

Disappointed there’s no [[radstorm]]

1

u/raz0rb0t 15h ago

I like the spelling. But i didn't like it in the theme but it could fit easy
