Zell Dincht deck questions

What colours can I use in a Zell Dincht deck?

Zell Dincht has a mono-red colour identity, so every card in the deck must be red or colourless. That includes mana symbols in rules text, not just casting cost.

What are the best cards for Zell Dincht?

The cards played most often in Zell Dincht decks include Koth, the Geomancer, Desert Were-Worm, Last Light of Durin's Day. The full list of staples above is grouped by the job each card does, so you can see the deck's skeleton rather than just a pile of names.

How much does a Zell Dincht deck cost?

The 20 most-played cards shown above come to roughly $28.97 at current market prices. A complete 100-card build costs more, and Grimoire can generate a budget version instead if you set a price ceiling.

Can I build a Zell Dincht deck from cards I already own?

Yes. Import your collection into Grimoire and choose "my cards" when you build. The generator will only use cards you actually own, and the Missing Cards page shows what you would need to buy to finish any list.
