Hello everyone,
So recently I started playing different gods every once in a while either for the sake of trying the playstyles I previously mentioned or just to explore and have fun with different deck each time.
And I can say that really playing all gods from time to time gives a new taste to the game and make it much more enjoyable. Especially when all your nature confused creatures been missing at a certain point. You can just take a break and try other gods!
So lately I wanted to try ramp magic for 2 reasons:
1- It has seen to be quite effective even with a f2p version.
2- It is so different that the war/nature creature type of gameplay so it should be a new experience.
So in this post I will be sharing the deck I tried and how it ended up.
I tried to keep this deck as f2p as possible. So the goal of a ramp magic deck is to get ahead on mana from your opponent and that can be done using Sip of Elixir or Mana Toad, and then after you are way ahead you swarm your opponent with the strong late game finishers that you have.
The goal is to survive to late game with your spells and then finish off the game since you have amazing late game creatures. Try to be as efficient as possible with the spells to be able to clear the board and not take a lot of damage.
I played this deck for 12 games and they were all in mythic and this is how it went:
| Matchups | Wins/Matches | Win rate |
|---|---|---|
| Light | 1/1 | |
| Nature | 4/5 | |
| Magic | 2/2 | |
| Death | 0/0 | |
| War | 1/3 | |
| Deception | 1/1 | |
| Overall | 9/12 | 75% |
As you can see it did very well against all gods except for war I was not able to hold on and I took a lot of damage so fast because the decks are faced are fast paced as all war decks are.
But overall pretty decent and I am pretty sure the deck can be improved.
These are the cards that I felt are so important for this deck:
Naturally, the Helian Elite is an amazing late game win condition although she can be replaced by a lot of late game strong creatures, she still provides more value with the insane strength and HP as well as the shield that can be a problem to your opponent most of the times. It sells now for 1$ and it is so good to get!
This spell is so good especially if things got out of hand and the board was flooding with 2 3 4 mana creatures this spell will held clear the board! Although it can be replaced by Crystal Rain the 1 extra point of damage sometimes make a lot of difference.
This card is so good to help you survive till late game. For 4 mana a 4/5 frontline as well as +1 spell boost is so good! I was surprised when I saw this card was only selling for 0.55$ I expected it to be more.
Of course I am not gonna mentioned the Sip of Elixir and Mana Toad as important cards because the deck is based off of ramping so such cards are a must have!
This card is pretty much used in all Ramp Decks for the amazing value and defense it provides. I replaced it with the Minotaur Phalanx because I did not have it but the 1 armor makes a huge difference and I would love to add it. I might buy it or wait to get it!
The foresee on this card is so valuable to help you get the cards that you might need or rather avoid the worst ones to get at certain point. For only 1 mana you will probably get to foresee 2 or 3 cards which will help you start the game decently!
This is an amazing spell that I would love to add. It can come in handy in many situations either for clearance or protection. You never know when you might need to protect yourself or a certain creature from lethal damage!
I would also throw another Sip of Elixir instead of a Mana Toad for faster ramping but since I have only 1 I had to do it like this!
Switching gods from time to time help you learn the game a lot more and explore it. It can give you the experience and the knowledge of how to think or act against a specific type of decks if you play it yourself!
Ramp Magic was a very fun unique deck I played especially being a nature main where it is mainly all strong creatures all around!
I am planning to keep trying new decks from time to time because I feel it is helping me a lot to know how to play when I face a specific type of deck which can help me improve my win rate in weekend rank hopefully!
So expect future posts like this one with different decks and playstyles each time while I also keep trying decks of the playstyles that I mentioned in my previous posts and still have not tested yet!
That's it for this post hope you like the deck, of course there is always room for improvement! Make sure to drop me a follow and let me know what you think of ramp magic in general!
Mad love, Peace out <3
