First Draft of Chaos (DE splash) Control deck

By ivory_tower, in Warhammer Invasion Deck Building

Hey guys, this is my first deck now that I've got almost 3 of everything; I can finally make something worthwhile. I have been testing this against orcs and most of the time I will let one zone burn and then start to turn the game around.

Here is the list:

UNITS

Savage gors x3

Festering nurglings x 3

Poison Wind Globadiers x 3

Bule , Lord of Pus x 2

Vile Sorceress x 3

Bloodsworn x 3

Nurgle Sorcerer x 3

Valkia the Bloody x 2

SUPPORT

Contested Village x 3

Warpstone Excavation x 3

Warpstone Meteor x 3 (might change to 2)

Warp Lightning Cannon x 3

Cloud of Flies x 3

Word of Pain x 2

TACTICS

Chillwind x 2

Innovation x 3

Nurgle's Pestilence x 3 (might change to 2)

We Need Your Blood x 3

The working combos are Cloud of Flies with Valkia the Bloody or Bloodsworn, Festering Nurglings and Bule Lord of Pus help corrupt cards to give Valkia the damage transfer and Nurgle Sorcerer the damage boost, Chillwind with Warp Lightning Cannon lets you use it the turn you play it. One card I sat with in my hand sometimes was Nurgle's Pestilence so I could maybe replace that. Any advice for optimizing this deck so far?

EDIT: I was thinking of either replacing the globadiers or the nurgle's pestilence with 3 fledgling chaos spawn, the warp light cannon would be good on them. 2 resources for a 3/1 and with chillwind this could be a great 2nd turn play.

Not sure how they'd fit into your scheme, but I like Seduced by Darkness and Tzeentch's Firestorm quite a bit myself. Probably SbD would be better for your deck, given your like and use of corruption effects (replacing Nurgle's Pestilence).

play the chaos relic over the lightning cannon, in conjunction with adding fledgling chaos spawn.

you also seem to be missing clan moulder elite, clan rats, greyseer and deathmaster. ;-)

Which would turn this deck into a standard cookie-cutter rat deck gui%C3%B1o.gif .

Yeah, I'm not trying to do a cookie cutter deck but something new. Of course, there are people that have put these combos together also. I have not looked at a lot of deck lists though, so I'm trying to stay original that way. I'm still new to the game as well but an experienced magic player. I decided to put in Walking Sacrifice instead of Fledgling Chaos Spawn, that way, when I lose the Cannon I can at least draw a card. Thought that would be more important than doing 1 damage when the spawn dies. What is the chaos relic and Snb that you guys mentioned?

I have updated the list:

Savage Gors x 3

Festering Nurglings x 3

Walking Sacrifice x 3 (replaces poison wind globadiers to speed things up)

Bule, Lord of Pus x 2

Vile Sorceress x 3

Bloodsworn x 3

Nurgle Sorcerer x 3

Valkia the Bloody x 2

Contested Village x 3

Warpstone Excavation x 3

Warpstone Meteor x 3

Warp Lightning Cannon x 3

Cloud of Flies x 3

Word of Pain x 2

Daemonsword x 2 (replaces innovation and works with walking sacrifice and chillwind)

We need your blood x 3

Chillwind x 2

Seduced by darkness x 3 (replaces nurgle's pestilence)

Slaneesh's domination x 1 (just because I had one slot open to make it 50)

I really like word of pain but I only have 2 copies. Once I get the 3rd, it could replace slaneesh's domination. A good first turn with this could be warpstone excavation in kingdom, walking sacrifice with either daemonsword attached or warp light cannon.

savage gors requires 2 battlefield developments that nothing else in your deck will utilize, replace with clan moulder elite so you can put cloud of flies on them if bloodsworn or valkia arent out yet
