This deck has come a long way from it's origins. By leveling down to the most essential functions, and working through the dead draws and screws before we finally arrived at this. And it's not perfect, but we think it's an all-around good base, and it has a strong sideboard. In a couple days we are going to link a few videos of playing this deck, but right now we are still working out a few bugs in our recording software.
Here is a video of the Whipstacular Junk deck vs. another Junk deck, there was just SO much LG going on, and I had to get to work, so I actually had to concede the game and leave. Look how long I held on though with even this terrible of a hand.

This deck has been fun to watch come together. We have had so many people tell us that this looks like a net-deck, or a rip-off of a net-deck. But the fact of the matter is that this deck originated right here in the confines of MTG The Journey. We looked nowhere else but our card collections for what we wanted to add, and traded for everything else we didn't. So we are super proud that we came up with a product that is similar to what a pro is playing! We home-brew all the way!
Well, we hope you enjoy these decklists, feel free to use them or modify them in any way you want to, we just ask that if you copy our templates and win big, that you tell people where you got the idea from and point them back here! We would also, of course, love to know if you are playing a copy or variant of a deck we have posted, and how it does or what you've changed and why.
Until next time, thanks for reading and we look forward to providing you with more MTG excellence in the future!
