Notes
 
Nekusar’s dinner party has only one rule: you will overeat… and you will suffer for it. Glutton for Punishment is a sadistic Grixis deck that turns every card draw into a sharpened fork, and every discard into a gut punch. Symmetrical draw engines like Wheel of Fortune, Windfall, and Puzzle Box stuff your opponents’ hands—only to rip them apart moments later, dealing brutal damage for every bite they take and every crumb they drop. Nekusar leads a sinister cabal of punishing effects that weaponize both feast and famine, from Underworld Dreams and Fate Unraveler to Geth’s Grimoire-fueled discard storms. You’ll feed them cards. You’ll starve them of options. And then you’ll burn them for everything in between.

Draw. Discard. Burn. Bon appétit.

Exchange List:

Phyrexian Metamorph -- Fell Specter

Viseling -- Scrawling Crawler
Sturmgeist -- Prince of Thralls
Nin, the Pain Artist -- Rise fo the Dark Realms

Library of Leng -- Wound Reflection
Consuming Aberration -- Mikokoro, Center of the Sea

    This is my list, looks like we've got a lot of overlap!  The Nekusar painwheel decks are pretty neat. 
    • Ryan Hallows | 21-Dec-2013 13:32
      Yes, I like Nekusar...however I would like it even better if I were able to play it. :) You guys sure you don't want to come to Virginia for Christmas?
      • Sean | 21-Dec-2013 13:56
        If only we could!  Maybe this summer?
        • Ryan Hallows | 21-Dec-2013 14:22
          That would be fun. We shall see how the job search goes. If we are still here (or closer to you guys) let's plan something for sure.
          • Sean | 21-Dec-2013 14:38
            Also, we got your card, thanks!  Ours are still on order at shutterfly (we procrastinated, they were slower than we expected). 


            Terrific name BTW, once you explained it.
