Magic: The Gathering: Coldsnap Theme Deck Reviews

Dec 27, 2006

The ice age has arrived with new abilities, massive creatures and a side order of butt kicking in the Coldsnap expansion set for the Magic: The Gathering card game. From the huge beasts in the Aurochs Stampede deck, to the hordes of undead in Beyond the Grave, the brave soldiers in Kjeldoran Cunning and the ice magic of Snowscape, the 411 on which deck is strongest is right here in our review!

Magic: Coldsnap: Aurochs Stampede Deck Review

We review the Magic: The Gathering card game expansion, Coldsnap, from Wizards of the Coast!
This Red and Green deck is loaded with big Trampling creatures to flatten your opponent, and the more you have the stronger they get! With lots of monsters, and a few other cards to blast stuff, this deck is easy to play and can really clobber the competition.

Aurochs Stampede Thumbs Up:

  • Lots of strong monsters.
  • Spiders to block flying creatures.
  • The deck box holds cards properly.
  • Aurochs Stampede Thumbs Down:

  • No strategy, just stomping.
  • Can't stop Enchantment cards.

    Magic: Coldsnap: Beyond the Grave Deck Review

    We review the Magic: The Gathering card game expansion, Coldsnap, from Wizards of the Coast!
    Black, Green and Red get all snuggly in this deck to unleash hordes of undead monsters over and over again. With lots of cards to bring your creatures back, and ways to KO your opponent's creatures, this deck can cause some serious damage. But, it doesn't have any flying creatures so watch out!

    Beyond the Grave Thumbs Up:

  • Great card combos!
  • Re-use your monsters over and over.
  • Void Maw = wow!
  • The deck box holds cards properly.
  • Beyond the Grave Thumbs Down:

  • A bit complicated to play.
  • No flying creatures or blockers.
  • Beyond the Grave Deck Rating:

    Magic: Coldsnap: Kjeldoran Cunning Deck Review

    We review the Magic: The Gathering card game expansion, Coldsnap, from Wizards of the Coast!
    Get heroic with the armies of Blue and White in this deck. With lots of creatures that power each other up, flying creatures to rule the air, and a bunch of blue cards to let you draw more cards, this deck is great for players who dig strategy more than giant monsters.

    Kjeldoran Cunning Thumbs Up:

  • Great defense.
  • Lots of soldiers and power-ups.
  • Lots of flying creatures.
  • The deck box holds cards properly.
  • Kjeldoran Cunning Thumbs Down:

  • No big stompy creatures.
  • No flying creatures or blockers.

    Magic: Coldsnap: Snowscape Deck Review

    We review the Magic: The Gathering card game expansion, Coldsnap, from Wizards of the Coast!
    Black and Blue have decided it's not cold enough yet, so they're teaming up to freeze everything with Snow magic. This deck is packed with cards that let you mess with your opponent's cards so they can't hurt you. And it has a fistful of sneaky monsters to crawl over and stick their claws up your opponent's nose. It's a bit tricky to play, but all the Snow magic gives it an advantage.

    Snowscape Thumbs Up:

  • Lots of cards for messing with your opponent.
  • Tons of Snow cards.
  • Lots of flying creatures.
  • The deck box holds cards properly.
  • Snowscape Thumbs Down:

  • Tricky to play properly!
  • Snowscape Deck Rating:
