Deckmasters 2001 is a box set that was released in December 2001. Richard Garfield and Jon Finkel were tasked with designing decks to pit against each other.

Description

The card pool was Ice Age and Alliances, and the reprint policy had to be taken in account. Each could only use four rare cards in the deck, and no more than two copies of any one card. Color hosers were not permitted. The resulting decks are showcased in this set.

Obviously meant to be a series, reffering to the Deckmaster brand, a follow up set has never been published.

Decklists

Garfield

Garfield is a red / green deck. Drop creatures as fast as you can, and use the red spells to clear the way for them to attack. Most of the creatures in the deck have such a high toughness that red burn spells won't kill them.

The rares in this deck are Elkin BottleJokulhaupsKarplusan Forest and Lhurgoyf.

Finkel

Finkel is a black / red deck. The deck starts by summoning efficient, versatile and hard-to-neutralize creatures. Clear a path with spot removal, and finish by hurling great balls of fire at the opponent. Use the Necropotence whenever you can.

Finkel

The rares in this deck are Balduvian HordeNecropotenceSulfurous Springs and Underground River.
