Looking for a new game to play with your existing cards?

This is my take on Nick Floyd's Dandan deck. For those who don't know, both players play out of the same 80-card deck, sharing their library and graveyard. The original version contains 10 Memory Lapse, and 10 Dandan as the only source of damage, and is otherwise singleton and creatureless. Manipulating the top of the library is of huge importance.

EDIT: I've learned that this format is more properly called Tower.

I'm a former EDH player, so my twist looks a little closer to that than Nick Floyd's original. For starters it has 96 cards rather than 80 (96 is just so divisible: by 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16...) I am also deeply emotionally rooted in the colors green and blue, even outside MtG, but especially in game. Sensei's Divining Top would probably be the most powerful card in this "format" if it takes off as a format, but I didn't include any colorless cards except lands to maximize the green and blue. I also also didn't include any cards I just don't like, even if they'd otherwise be good for this. The four classes I generally don't allow are planeswalkers, dual-faced cards, anything originally printed in Modern Horizons 2 or later, and anything imported from another IP, such as the D&D or Warhammer cards.

Effectively, this deck contains cards I like that fit the single-library-single-graveyard concept and then every combo I like in my colors, including Mystic Snake + Equilibrium, Argothian Elder + Freed From the Real, Wake Thrasher + Seeker of Skybreak (+ Deepchannel Mentor), plus many others.

Would you enjoy playing this deck? Would you enjoy building one of your own?
