Not sure why I'm posting this; just doing it. So I'm taking 50 of my decks out of rotation. Too many decks in my boxes that I don't actually want to play. Time for some spring cleaning.

Reasons for Retirement:
[1] Unoriginal / Other people have similar decks (not necessarily at the HUB)
[2] Boring as hell to play / Plays the same every game
[3] Too powerful (goes "off" too often)
[4] Not a legal general, and was a silly idea anyway
[5] This deck sucks (or) Meh, not really liking the deck

RETIRED (being taken apart completely):

0 color (Kozilek) - [1]
______ (Nameless Detective) - [4]
Anti-Don Wrath Survival - [2]
Artifact 5 Color - [5]
Black Spirits (Iname Death Aspect) - [2] [3]
Domain - [5] (although it did win the last time I played it)
Exile / Remove from Game - [5]
Homarid Spawning Bed (as general) - [4]
Jhoira Camarids - [5]
Kemba, Kha Regent - [1] [2]
Kiki-Jiki - [1] [2]
Kresh - [1] [5]
Lovisa Coldeyes - [5]
Red Spirits (Skyfire Ki-rin) - [5]
Shirei, Shizo's Caretaker - [1] [3]
Snow - [5]
Thraximundar (Sac My Own Stuff) - [5]
Tutor Lands - [1]
White Hybrid - [5]
Wort, Boggart Auntie (Goblins) - [1] [5]

DEMOTED TO "LEND OUT" ONLY (these are salvageable deck ideas, so I'll keep them together as "lend out" decks; probably won't update these decks anymore):

3 color BGW (Teneb resurrection) - [5]
Blue Braids - [1] [3]
Destroy - [5]
Hanna, Ship's Navigator - [1]
Mayael - [1] [2]
Soldier (Darien) - [1] [2]
Survivalist (Don't Attack Me) - [2] [5]
Ulasht - [2]

TAKEN OUT OF ROTATION (will keep these decks together, but won't bring them to the HUB unless I'm really in the mood to play them):

All 18 "Block" Decks (although the new Innistrad one I'll play for a while)
All 4 EDH Pauper Decks

After this, I'll still have 71 EDH decks, plus the 2 Tribal decks and the 58 Tribal "inserts" (though I may retire some of the inserts as well). So now I can actually go through all my decks once a month again. smile.gif

I will probably put _______ back as a Casual deck, which it originally was. Having 4 of each Grandeur card was really good. smile.gif

I also want to rebuild my Tribal Kobolds deck as a Casual deck. Kobolds aren't do-able in EDH unfortunately.

Mark Tedin is a good choice and he's even drawn all the basic lands. Who will be the general?

Composite Golem. Not legendary, but it is WUBRG color identity.

If you're keeping the Nephlim decks, you GOTTA keep the Homarid Spawning Bed (as a general) deck.

(Because Blind Seer and Zur aren't enough. :-D)

Wait.... I don't see Zur on that list either....

you definitely need to make at least a few new decks if you are retiring this many.

for one, you need to replace antidon with another deck that is waaay different than your playstyle...i like you being out of character
