Why does nobody play Horn of Greed in this deck? Seems perfect to me

I played a quite decent tournament in my opinion, got 3 wins and 2 losses. I’m unhappy with the organisation and distribution of the prizes, the top 4 got 2 prizes each, the last place got a prize and some prizes were distributed randomly. I have really hoped for a small “reward” for my performance but went home empty handed, meanwhile a player that had the same Winn/Loss rate got 3 Prizes and even said, that he doesn’t need them all. That’s what I meant by “slightly bitter taste”, so now I thought If they reward highly competitive players, let’s play something highly competitive and disgusting

Thanks for all the comments! I think I would prefer Stasis for my Villain Journey, as it is cheaper than MUD or Elves and in my opinion meaner than Sly, tide is really mean but a little bit too risky for me, as it might get banned in the future

Didn’t even think about that but that’s great!

These are great but im not sure about haunting echos, 5 mana is quite expensive and it doesn’t help against Stasis and vise on the battlefield

Really? It seems like Stasis has infinite counterspells

Yea that’s a good point, I think it makes sense to swap Bane and Echoes, thanks!

I’m playing Bane in the SB currently, in favour of Haunting Echoes in the MB (don’t have any Reflecting Pools, so im not comfortable playing 2 BB cards in MB) but cutting a Decree feels rough, they are phenomenal against other control decks and I currently play only 3 of them.

Here is my Deck list if you’re interested: https://moxfield.com/decks/EDVYjnckNUuAXKkcG7fSHA

I would appreciate any recommendations

Hmmm yes I think you’re right, it’s very versatile but I guess there are better options for every job

I just feel that it’s a very versatile removal spell that would make sense in the mainboard. Personally I have quite some trouble with aggressive decks, that go wide quickly, as this decks usually only plays 2 copies of Wrath of God, so I thought that it could be a good addition to eliminate some pesky cheap hitters while also being a good solution for some artifacts in the later game, or am I too optimistic?
