Deluge Blue Card in Magic the Gathering

Video Transcript

"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village. And today, we'll be discussing the blue cards from the blue block of Magic: The Gathering. And now, we're going to go over Deluge. Deluge is a blue spell under the blue block. It is in the basic set which means it is currently type two legal, which means it's the highest legal qualification. It means you could play it in any card. Once again, it's a very, very useful card for all the little creatures, and you're going to see why. The reason you're going to see why is because it's two and a blue. Once again, control--blue is all about control. It's an instant, which means you get to play it during any phase of the game. Now, this taps all creatures without flying. Once again, blue has a lot of fairies, a lot of flyers, a lot of owls, birds, creatures and a lot of the other decks, especially all the other colors, run little creatures, but all the creatures normally do not have flying. So it doesn't matter how big the creatures are, you can tap them which means you can tap them before the opponent gets to use them, before the opponent attacks or you can tap them all when you're attacking and none of them can block. This is a very, very, very powerful card. It's an uncommon. It will usually run you about 40-50 cents at your local store since it's in the basic set. And if you're running a creature-heavy blue deck, you should play this card."
