A mate definitely had this back in the day, though whether I’d have played with it (before I brought my own cards) or against it in stock form I couldn’t say. I certainly did play with many of these cards myself though: red and black were my favourite colours and Urza’s Legacy was the booster pack I’d usually crack.
Phyrexian Assault
An aggressive black red deck which combines cheap creatures with plenty of removal.

The name says it all: creatures rule the day “Phyrexian Assault” gives you cheap but effective creatures and creature removal – both elements are crucial to achieving victory. Get out a creature, then remove obstacles so you can deliver damage to your opponent.

Urza’s Legacy Phyrexian Assault Preconstructed Theme Deck (MTG)
Awesome deck! Worth buying. If you like phyrexians this is awesome. I also reccomend the following cards: Akroma, angel of wrath, Serra Avatar, and Avatar of Woe. And Black Lotus ( I have em all) they are THE BRST CARDS IN MAGIC: THE GATHERING

A pretty powerful reccomendation from someone who clearly has all the brst cards.
Awsome Deck. Try combining with the theme deck, “Mergrim” From Stronghold.
