I have roughly 20,thousand cards. I havelike 26 decks. Elves, Two Graft decks, Wizzards, Sliver, Four Ally Decks Blue-black Blue-white Black-red Green-white, Three goblin decks Red Red-black Red-green, Fungus, Pirate/boat, Three artifact decks, Saperling deck, Worldwake Land deck, Zombie, Two black Vampire decks, Black green wither deck, jund, And my squirel deck.

It may be alot of decks but i dont have the heart to rip them apart or the time. And i need more I NEED MORE! Of all the decks there is only 16 different deck types/focus so im looking for different types of decks i could build and some pointers on how to construct them(good cards, combos, and basic idea). Also if you could post (only if you feel bored or are willing to) your best or favorite deck.

(Also if your bored look up The Mighty Boosh. i like british comody)

Well, given the type of cards you listed, you might quite enjoy Merfolk or Soldiers. Soldiers would be expensive at best, but they are really entertaining. I, myself, enjoy dragon decks, but they can be slow if you don't know how to use them. I would suggest a type of control deck, there should be a few combos on this site concerning control. You could also roll turbo fog. It has no combos or creatures, but it really doesn't need any. Basically you get Howling Mines (4) and/or Font of Mythos (4) and then use mill cards like archive trap, traumatize, etc. while protecting yourself with Wrath of Gods, Judgement Days, and Angelsongs (Plus any other damage prevention card you can think of) There are many decks that could be made, so its not easy to give you an idea you would enjoy unless you told me what type of deck you would like to make.

I end up going in circles anyways so every little idea with a few card names atached to it is helpfull.

And to be honest i want someone to post their deck so that i can copy it as best i can and tweak it so that is suits me. Is that so wrong? Im also looking for decks that are alittle less known (like my squirel deck im the only one of the fifty people i know who play that has one) Idk i cant seem to think for myself so im praying upon the prospects of good fortune to show me somthing that peaks my intrest.

i could make a pretty good dragon deck if i put my mind to it........... Thanx

No problem, and since you want something just odd, you should go for a Pinnacle deck. Here's the list if you like the idea:

4 Gilt-leaf Archdruid
4 Helix Pinnacle
4 Mana Reflection
4 Upwelling
4 Llanowar Elves
4 Fyndhorn Elves
4 Citanul Hierophants
4 Fyndhorn Elder
4 Fog

Basically, you use the Gilt-leaf for land control, then slap down Helix Pinnacle and slam down 100 tower counters (and trust me, with your opponent's lands and Mana Reflection, that will NOT be hard) and, basically, auto-win. The reason for so many copies is because in order to win, you MUST have gilt-leaf and mana reflection early. Llanowar and Fyndhorn Elves are for speed. Fog is for protection, obviously, but you could replace them with 4 Worldly Tutors to make sure you get the creatures you want.

Well if you're looking for ideas why not build a deck based on one of your favorite fictional or non-fictional beings. I don't know if this helps but this is my Jester Deck.

Jester's Capx4

Jester's Mask x4

Ritual of Restoration x4

Jester's Sceptor x4

Disfigure x4

Shield Sphere x4

Sleight of Hand x4

Agony Warpx4

Arcane Sanctum x4

Cloudpost x4

Island x 6

Swamp x5

Plains x5

I'm pretty sure you have combos on your deck. Most of your deck could have/already have an infinite mana combo. How about trying out on a Green control with a touch of combo...

LOL....

4 Llanowar Elves
4 Quirion Ranger (or the other ranger i forgot the name but it's not an elf)
2 Seedborn Muse
4 Static orb (or Winter orb)
4 Icy Manipulator
4 Harmonize
2 Vitalize
4 Eternal Witness
4 Seeker of Skybreak
2 Staff of Domination
2 Umbral Mantle
4 Greenweaver Druid

Lands: (your choice but stick with Lands that can produce green mana).

Agree with jester with his idea about the fictional creature, you can make griffen deck or snakes or licids

You can always go tribal, but tribal based on mechnics rather then type-a deck with 20 cards that have provoke or rampage

Build a deck based on a book or movie you like. my friend actually built two fun decks based on lord of the rings, one is the good side other mordor. I was planning a deck on harry potter stories, but never got around to it-i should break that idea out of mothballs.

Then of course you can always build decks outside the normal 60 card construct-such as edh, star(color hating star), rainbow stair, pauper

I know a friend that has a green/white/red cat lion deck. It's pretty cool and there's lots of cards for that theme like Glittering lion, Jungle lion, Loam lion, Lion's Eye Diamond, Mtenda lion, Pride of lions, Whitemane lion, Jedit Ojanan of Efrava, Nacatl War-Pride, Pardic firecat, Penumbra bobcat, Raksha Golden cub, Sabertooth Alley Cat, Savage Firecat, Scoria Cat, Slumbering Tora, Uktabi Wildcats, Wild Nacatl, Wirecat, Waiting in the Weeds, Blistering Firecat, Crazed Firecat, Firecat Blitz, Jareth Leonine Titan and Savannah lions. Those are the ones I can think of there's probably more but yeah I find that a cool themed deck idea.

Another idea would be to base all your cards on a certain word. like chrome. Examples would be cards that have Chroma abilities or maybe Akroma, Angel of Wrath, etc. Of course you don't have to use the word chrome. It would take some digging, but it would definitely be odd.

A theme deck maybe?

Like Shooter deck...

Triskelion, Prodigal Pyromancer, Niv-Mizzet, Prodigal Sorcerer, Quicksilver Dagger, Goblin Sharpshooter, Kamahl, Pit Fighter, Jeska, Warrior Adept...

Browbeat, Concentrate, Etc.

Lightning Bolt, Fire and Ice, Etc.

If you have put in Curiosity in there for Niv-Mizzet or Mind Overmatter...
