Decks Containing Planar-Birth

this deck makes people mad. you just take away ther lands and get yours back then hit them with your creatures and raise your own life and use the celestial convergence.and no one can do anything because of all the counters. and its not a very expensive deck.

I always enjoy using this deck. Glacial Crevasses and Pollen Lullaby prevent combat damage dealt to you, since there are no creatures in this deck to protect you. Glacial Crevasses requires you to sacrifice a snow-covered mountain to prevent all combat damage. But Planar Birth will allow you to return all those sacrificed mountains to play (tapped) from your graveyard. With 15 Snow-Covered Mountains in the deck, there is a 25% chance that you will draw one, and a 50% chance if you have the Anvil of Bogardan out, which allows all players to draw an extra card (and then immediately discard any one in his/her hand). Wild Research seems like it was made especially for this deck. It's an enchantment that allows you to pay to search for another enchantment or an instant in your library and put it into your hand (after which you must randomly discard a card). So if you have any trouble finding Glacial Crevasses, this comes in handy. Also, it's a great card for searching for instants you may need in the heat of the moment, such as Negate, Disenchant, or Skred. Aegis of Honor allows you to reflect back damage dealt to you by an instant or sorcery that cannot be prevented by Glacial Crevasses or Pollen Lullaby. So once enough turns have gone by, and you have enough mana, hit your opponent with Insurrection if he has a lot of creatures out. Or if his deck is not creature-heavy, use Searing Wind to bring his life down. Blessed Wind is a two-edged sword. You can bring your life total back up to 20 if it is dangerously low. Or you can bring an obnoxious life-gain player back down to 20 in one fell swoop, bringing them back to a manageable number. Bedlam is in there on the sideboard basically for multiplayer games. It turns your opponents against each other because they would rather attack someone who cannot prevent all combat damage with Glacial Crevasses. You are the grand manipulator! :)

get an assault out and then some land tax, use the birth to make you opponant get land out of his graveyard then toss all the land in your hand at him. simple.

use the wrath of god and natural affinity and the scapegoat to blow up everything in play besides your own stuff. You'll figure it out eventually^_^

All kinds of infinite combos, with Gutless Ghoul sacrificing Eternal Witness, et al, then sac lands and Second Sunrise to bring it all back untapped, and Eternal Witness brings back Second Sunrise. Use Faceless Butcher on Eternal Witness for added effect (once when EW comes into play, and then FB's CIP ability targets EW, and sac FB after stack clears). Countryside Crusher can be made huge and blockers removed from game with Faceless Butcher. Use tutoring for whatever necessary combo is closest to realization. Use Tormod's Crypt to prevent opponents from benefitting from Second Sunrise. It's complicated, but fun and in multiplayer games it is sneaky and then it's over for all the opponents.
