I've tried Tetzimoc, Primal Death and Bontu the Glorified, but was not impressed. Tetzimoc became the Gearhulks and I replaced Bontu by filling out some playsets in the deck. I think the Manabase needs the most work, I plan on adding 2 Ifnir Deadlands and possibly 1-2 Field of Ruin. On paper, Four CMC 3 spells is not enough, but it has been working out well. I hope to hear your comments, criticism or anything else you would like to say. Thanks!
GSS,Rallier getting back GSS and Cloudblazer allow for Card Advantage and Wipe recovery. With Pillar of Origins it is hard to include Non-Creature Spells. I don't disagree, this might not be playable. I'm trying to figure it out.
A few of my friends and I are making Standard decks after exclusively playing Modern over the last 2-3 years. We will be playing mostly @ Gameday and FNM or 2.
I'm trying to figure out if this is viable in Standard. I've tested well against various Energy builds and Tokens. I have not played, what I think are the weaker match-ups, Control, GPG and Approach. While I don't like being weak to that much of the field, we do have 4 colors to make a SB. In testing Pillar of Origins has been the only fringe card, but might be needed anyway. This Deck is very good at recovering from Wipes! If you have any comments/suggestions/criticism, please post. Also, if you have a SB suggestion I would love to hear it. Thank You!!!
Hi, I'm new to the Rock. I've been trying to find a way to get 2-3 artifacts in my MD. Mishra's Bauble or Nihil Spellbomb are the looking like the way to go, but has anyone tried Executioner's Capsule? It's an Artifact and fits what the Rock is trying to do better than the previously mentioned cards. I'm running G/B currently with 2 Slaughter Pact's that have been hit or miss. Capsule feels like a natural replacement for the Pact's. Thanks!!
@Raystack Thank You for responding. I will check out post #532. The matches are all very close and winnable. I will use the above strategy tomorrow and I will report back on how it went. Have you came across By Force, yet? If so, what did you think? Loving the deck, as always. Thank You!
This may seem odd with Chalice, but I've been having trouble in a Burn heavy Meta. ( 50+% on most nights.) I have 1 Witchbane Orb and 1 Dragon's Claw in the SB. They help , but players have been stacking artifact hate against me. ( Destructive Revelry, Wear//Tear, and the one that hurts the most, By Force.) I'm leaning towards running Leyline of Sanctity in the SB with looting and possibly taking two Pia Nalaar from MD and replacing with something that helps against Burn. Has anyone tried this in a Burn heavy Meta? How did it work out? Thanks!
I've been a long time lurker, this is my 1st post. I fell in love with this deck when I 1st laid eyes on it. I only play Modern FNM currently because that's all I have time for. I'm posting so hopefully the members of this forum can critique my list. I finish 4-0 or 3-1 usually against a meta that contains a lot of Burn, Death Shadow variants, 1 Eldrazi Tron, 2 Elves, 1 Lantern Control and some other off the wall ideas. (Mill, 5 Color Aggro, etc.) Here is my list:
I'm taking this deck to my first Modern event in years. I fell in love with the deck and I'm very excited to play it. I've done a lot of goldfishing, but no other testing. Is there anything I should know about the deck or watch out for? Thanks in advance! I hope Fatal Push doesn't cripple this deck before I even get started with it.
Does anyone have any other options I didn't think of? I also would like to know what you guys think are the best SB cards. Mine so far are, Ceremonious Rejection and Negate.
I'm trying to make my 1st competitive EDH deck and I hope this can be a good starting point. I was trying to make a deck with A+ smaller creatures, recursion, anthem effects, and removal. I don't know the Competitive scene and that's why, I think, I need some help. Do you see an obvious cards I missed for this type of deck? Your comments, critique, suggestions and input would be a big help and are greatly appreciated. Thank You! Here is the list:
I think cards like Anafenza, the Foremost, Elspeth, Sun's Champion, Drana, Liberator Malakir are a great idea. I guess it's not a good idea to not try a card because it interacts with Proliferate. I'm going to make a decklist and I might post it in the appropriate forum when I'm done. Thank you for all of the ideas!
I've been wanting to make a new EDH deck and this is an idea I came up with. I want to make an Atraxa deck without Planeswalkers or +1+1 counters. My idea centers around Atraxa being a very good creature without the Proliferate ability. I want to make a deck with the best 4cmc or less creatures, recursion, and equipment for a type of win condition.(Maybe, Overrun type effects as win condition too.) Is this type of deck viable in Multiplayer and am I making a mistake not including cards that interact with Proliferate? Thanks!
I've been playing with this deck for a few days and I think it has potential. I'm not sure though, if Marionette Master should be something else. Noxious Gearhulk and/or Demon of Dark Schemes come to mind. It is very fun to play. I'm looking for some Comments/Feedback on the deck. Thank You!
