The Quiet Speculation Sealed Contest

Are you a Quiet Speculation member?

If not, now is a perfect time to join up! Our powerful tools, breaking-news analysis, and exclusive Discord channel will make sure you stay up to date and ahead of the curve.

The Sealed deck contests run by Channel Fireball are always a good time, and after consulting with the powers-that-be here at Quiet Speculation, we have decided to try a similar event.

I'll lay out a Sealed pool for you below, and you'll submit your decklists to me at dannybrown37 at gmail dot com.

The lucky (and skilled) winner will receive a free month of QS Insider—a $12 value! If you've been on the fence about whether you should give Insider a try, this is a great chance to test it out. And if you're already an Insider, you can always turn that $12 savings into even more.

Contest entries will be due by October 10, 2014. I will review each well-organized decklist submitted and choose a winner based on the best balance between power level, consistency, and synergy. A follow-up article will go up roughly two weeks after the deadline, where we will announce the winner and discuss some of the more interesting lists. The powerful cards in this pool could take you in several different directions, and I'm looking forward to seeing how folks approach this build.

Without further ado, this is what you'll be working with:
