Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Thought it would be fun to play a deck that has literally just one creature (Mr. Benton). Even after explaining the concept I have found that it takes a few turns before my opponents understand what is happening. At some point someone at the table usually says “so wait a minute. The deck has NO other creatures? So your hand is filled with nothing but instant speed interaction? then we all laugh and I proceed to draw 15 cards. \n"}]}
