I wanted to take a look at it to see if I could tweak it for Silver, but I can't find a single copy on the Net, especially since Vsrealms and Metagame went down. Anyone have the decklist?

(For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it's a Modern Age deck which uses New Era and Thunderbolts Mountain to play Gamma Bomb early, then wins the game with Imperiex.)

Hey, thanks for the quick reply! Did Jason Hager ever write a primer for the deck, or was there ever any coverage for it? I don't really understand some of the card choices and I'd like to know more about the strategy underlying it besides "play lots of Gamma Bomb ASAP"

Here's a quick and rough run down -

Characters:
4 [Blizzard, Frosty Friend] - Stall
3 [Joystick, Fun and Games] - Gotta team-up or have one out to meet Bullseye's restriction and the fact that she gets bigger and gains invulnerability is a bonus.
4 [Hal Jordan, Founding Member] - Ultimate Search
3 [Radioactive Man, Containment Suit] - Lockdown to stop those pesky opposing plot twist...Like Omnipotence and other cards that would hinder your evil intent.
4 [Bullseye, Closer to God] - Stall through combat trickery
4 [Aquaman, Founding Member] - Allows for Poseidonis, New Era, and he returns character cards back to your hand for free. Technically if needed this guy is a 9/9 4-Drop.
4 [Aquaman, Lord of Atlantis] - Allows for Poseidonis, New Era, and his enter play effect is f'ing bonkers. Get back any character card and any other card you need.
1 [Imperiex] - I win.
1 [Speedball, Penance, Painmonger] - Gotta team-up or have one out to meet Bullseye's restriction and the fact that he takes a little from the opponent doesn't hurt.

Plot Twists:
3 [Omnipotence] - This one is self explanatory;).
3 [Empires's End] - No attack for you!
4 [Dirty Tricks] - No attack for you!
2 [Death of a Dream] - Get rid of pesky opposing resources...Say Omnipotence.
3 [Security Clearance] - Search made viable via Thunderbolt Mountain.
4 [New Era] - One of the key components in the deck. Use Thunderbolt Mountain, replace it with New Era getting another Thunderbolt Mountain and boom you just went up two resources in one turn. Gamma Bomb anyone?
3 [Gamma Bomb] - Hey I just mentioned this card;).
1 [Collect Them All] - Search.
1 [Have a Blast!] - Another "get rid of Omnipotence" card.

Locations:
4 [Thunderbolts Mountain] - The other key component.
1 [Safe House No. 23] - Who doesn't love a team-up.
1 [Metropolis Reborn] - Hey another one.
1 [City of Tomorrow] - Hey another one.
1 [Poseidonis] - Getting back cards for the next turn like say New Era, Gamma Bomb, or Thunderbolt Mountain is always nice;).

Hope that helps man:),
Kj
