'eyall,
This time I got somewhat better cards -- and enough snakes to fill a zoo or two. Currently I'm 1-0, but kinda uneasy about the deck's reliance on the mass o' snakes to hit the table all at once.
My deck:
Lands
9 Forest
2 Mountain
4 Swamp
1 Okina, Temple to the Grandfathers [with 3 legends in my deck, it's not so bad]
Critters
1 Burr Grafter
1 Cruel Deceiver
1 Cursed Ronin
1 Kashi-Tribe Reaver
1 Matsu-Tribe Decoy
1 Order of the Sacred Bell
1 Orochi Sustainer
1 Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro [craaaazy mana accel]
2 Sakura-Tribe Elder [bwhaha]
1 Seshiro the Anointed
1 Sosuke, Son of Seshiro
1 Venerable Kumo
2 Villainous Ogre
Rest
1 Befoul
1 Lure [not that useful, but putting this on the regenerating snake is nice with Sosuke out]
1 Blind with Anger [usually removes 2 nasty critters at once]
1 Glacial Ray [duh]
1 Kodama's Reach
1 Pull Under [costly, but kills dragons dead]
1 Sensei's Divining Top [deceiver ammo]
1 Swallowing Plague
1 Yamabushi's Flame
The Other Stuff
1 Stone Rain

2 Uncontrollable Anger
1 Unnatural Speed
1 Eerie Procession
1 Field of Reality
1 Hisoka's Guard
1 Jushi Apprentice
1 Kami of Twisted Reflection
1 Lifted by Clouds
1 Mystic Restraints
1 Psychic Puppetry
1 Sift Through Sands
1 Soratami Mirror-Guard
1 Soratami Rainshaper
1 Soratami Savant
1 Student of Elements
2 Thoughtbind
1 Deathcurse Ogre
1 Ashen-Skin Zubera
1 Kuro, Pitlord
2 Wicked Akuba

2 Silent-Chant Zubera
1 Joyous Respite
1 Orochi Sustainer
1 Vine Kami
Rest
1 Cloudcrest Lake
1 Hair-Strung Koto
I've been waffling about Kuro -- nice synergy with the ogres, but the quadruple black cost is nasty. Splashing blue is tempting for mad glacial spliceage too... gah!

indecisiveness for the win
