Post Rotation Decks Episode 4: Pseudo Affinity

Hello hello hello!
I recently played at and blogged about an FNM I went at toys where I did very well for myself. One of the decks that I played against was a UW Myr deck that exemplified how powerful Tempered Steel really is. Also, today on Daily Deck Lists on the motherhip we have a deck that simply pours out its hand before restocking to 7 and then dumping everything again. The first deck didn't have card advantage, the second doesn't really have any finishers, so I am going to bring them together. Here is a quick decklist:

2x Myr Battlesphere
4x Gold Myr
4x Silver Myr
4x Paladium Myr
4x Myr Galvanizer
3x Steel Overseer
3x Wurmcoil Engine
3x Lodestone Golem

3x Semblance Anvil
4x Tempered Steel
4x Time Reversal

4x Seachrome Coast
4x Glacial Fortress
4x Tectonic Edge
5x Island
5x Plains

Theoretically with this deck you could have some incredible things happen like this: you have Semblance Anvil in play with an artifact imprinted on it. The only card in your hand is Time Reversal. Cast Time Reversal, which effectively reads "3BB: Draw 7 cards" and then dump your hand. 15 cards (Gold Myr, Silver Myr, Steel Overseer) now cost 0 mana, while everything else is now dramatically undercosted. Myr Battlesphere is already nuts when it delivers 18 power for 7 mana, but when you cut its cost down to 5, it is simply mind blowing!

I really look forward to this deck making splashes down the road. I know I will be making this entire deck, partially because it is so inexpensive. After Wurmcoil Engine (which isn't required at all) you have to worry about Time Reversal, and lands mainly. Hopefully soon I will have a post documenting this deck being played. But until then, have a good day
