Vintage Magic — Paradoxical Storm vs. Dimir Infect
Channel: T1GlistenerElf
Date: 13/10/2017

Since this is my first session playing Vintage in years, let alone with my favorite archetype, I hope you don't mind that I got another match back-to-back. This time, my friend and I switched decks because he wasn't sure that he was piloting it correctly. I've seen the deck in action in the hands of Reid Duke, but this is my first go with it as well…


I asked on Twitter what deck I should brew, and Infect won.

This is my brew of Infect in Vintage. Rather than using the Invigorate + Berserk plan, this deck uses Blazing Shoal alongside Progenitus and The Ur-Dragon to wreck our opponent as soon as turn two. With as many tutors and card draw spells as Vintage affords us, I believe that this strategy can certainly be viable.
