clayperce on Bears (The 2/2 Kind)

I hadn't really thought about Ardenn like that; that makes total sense.

I got kind of intrigued by the idea of this deck, so threw a quick decklist together: Rebel Bears (Duskana Starter Pack). Please consider it as the first draft of the deck I'd build based on your idea, not an actual recommendation for your deck. But maybe it'll give you some ideas ...

I'm not sure Neurok Stealthsuit is really a good fit for this deck. The creature I most need to protect is Etrata, and I need to be able to target it.

Thanks for the suggestions clayperce! I agree i should add more ramp and maybe swap out the bridge lands to up the basic land count atleast. I did run Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist before and it didnt do much bc most times people dont bother with token removal to requip them.

Last_Laugh on Copies made of The Sixth …

I know tokens don't normally have a cmc unless they're the result of copying a permanent spell. Do further token copies (of the tokens with a cmc from the 6th Dr.) from a source like Romana II or Rhys the Redeemed still copy the cmc or are they 0 cmc tokens per usual?

Form of the Demon

Enchantment

When Form of the Demon enters and at the end of each turn, your life total becomes 7.

You cast spells with life instead of mana. (You must cast spells by paying life equal to their mana cost instead of mana)


Create another Form of the Dragon style card

Reality Assunder

Enchantment

Vanishing 2

Whenever a player plays a spell from their hand, exile it with a time counter and it gains suspend.

I love Gift of Doom with Crypt Rats, I'm not sure if you have other synergies, other than using it's morph cost to protect your Commander?

Maybe Altar of Dementia in case someone casts a Farewell? I get that the rats will shrink as you sac more rats, but that's still a lot of mill to punish the guy who killed your furry friends! It can also be used to finish someone off that you can't attack due to pillowfort or Stax.

That just made me think of something else that'd synergize with your high power creatures, Mask of Griselbrand can turn a single big Rat into a life gain engine, and if someone tries to kill the rat you can draw a ton of cards, and you still have the equipment. It's also a great way to draw some bulk cards if you equip a big rat and use your Commander on them!

clayperce on Bears (The 2/2 Kind)

Absolutely LOVE the idea of this deck; big +1 for using For Mirrodin! as a Rebel Bear mechanic!

I know it can be really hard to find that "missing something" ... looking at it from the other angle though, are there any cards in here (besides the For Mirrodin! ones, of course) that absolutely nail it?

As a shot in the dark though, maybe some more ...
- Cost Reducers? E.g., Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist, Cid, Freeflier Pilot
- Ramp? E.g., Cultivate, Atalan Jackal
- Targeted Disruption? E.g., Path to Exile, Swords to Plowshares, Generous Gift, Beast Within

You might also be able to make use of some cards with Affinity for Equipment ... e.g.,Goldwardens' Gambit and Nahiri, Forged in Fury.

Good luck (and good skill) with the deck!

Cheers!

Absolutely love Hazezon Tamar; huge +1 from me!

Haz' was one of my very first Commanders, but I stepped away from EDH for a while, and I haven't touched the deck in years. Your deck has got me REALLY thinking about him again though, so thank you!

Cheers!

Cyntax on Alternate Art

2 days ago

More specific question; how do I post alternate artwork in such a way, that it appears on a card's Alternate Artwork list? Like, assigned a number that can be wrapped with asterisks while editing decks to reference said alternate artwork?

I play 95% of my MTG on Tabletop Simulator, so I'm trying to get all of the custom cards to load up nicely. ^^

clayperce on Every Angel is Terrifying

2 days ago

Very cool deck. I've been low-key thinking about building Angels (either Giada, Font of Hope or Errant and Giada) for a friend, and this makes it MUCH more likely, so thanks!

Idk how much room you might have for more non-Basic Lands, but in case you haven't already looked at them: Emeria, the Sky Ruin, Path of Ancestry, and Minas Tirith might be worth considering.

I also really like Herald's Horn in a Typal deck; it might be worth a look too.

Big +1 from me; cheers!

I just came across Tyrite Sanctum. Pumps any legendary creature at instant speed and can protect our commander the turn it comes down since it’s already a God, we can also use it in a pinch, or if we are just flooded on mana. Imagine cracking Tyrite for the indestructible counter on our opponent’s end step right before our untap step, then just casting a wrath  Flip pre combat.

Probably preferred over the second source of utility hate. Not a huge fan of gifting a free land to those uninvolved, but pretty nice if your playgroup/meta commonly runs OP nonbasics.

Cool list! I am going to be updating my Tazri list with new allies soon. It is cool to see the different directions they can go now with the new set. Here is my list: [https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/allied-invasion-2/]

TH3WAFFL3R on Melek, Spellcaster Extraordinaire

3 days ago

It always nice to see another Melek player in the wild. Here are some cards that have worked for me.

Mystical Tutor and Personal Tutor are both insane in melek.

Also instants and sorceries that can be played as lands like Sink into Stupor  Flip and Valakut Awakening  Flip can be used place of normal land and makes melek's ability a little more consistent.

Library of Leng is another really good included if you got enough discard cards like Shreds of Sanity, Frantic Search, and Recall

Ritual are always good Seething Song is my favourite

In removal I've found Nevinyrral's Disk is the only way to get rid of enchantments. Submerge is free in 90% of games. Also cards like Pillage and Boomerang are good when cloned and can hurt your opponents mana base.

Anyways I hope that these suggestions are helpful :)

Dropped bloodghast and afterlife from the loam. Added Lazav, and testing the Mimeoplasm. Not sure if it will make the cut, if it’s not good put afterlife back in.

@Andramalech oh, is that what that is? I was never sure what that meant. I would check my decks sometimes for other details like average cmc, and saw that once or twice. I figured it was attached to drafting or playing other people online or something, or maybe even a bug. Neat!

So decks receive accolades based on comments, suggestions, upvotes, views, etc. and if you look at the accolades of this deck, under the 'Details' tab, you can see that your EDH (Elder Demon) has beaten out Westvale Atlas as the number one both in the Modern format, and the site overall. Just friendly nemesis observations, is all. Something to be proud of for sure!

Very nice! I'd recommend replacing Deserted Temple with Urza's Cave. Would increase the odds of getting the full Urzatron.

gzusvictory on Halvar, Divine Voltron

Abandoned Air Temple is another utility land that can produce white, and can pump the team at instant speed. Not sure if you want to cut a Plains for it since that would bring you down to 13 basics in the deck.

Smotzy on Swamp Stupor Says Discard

3 days ago

I have been playing this deck a ton at my LGS, and making changes to it on the fly to improve it further and to adapt — or adjust it to punish the same few things over and over — it to the play style of those games of these new & random pods that seem to play a lot more draw heavy, token-y, board state interaction based decks, that don’t have any idea of older cards and cheap mana cost discard and land destruction mechanics. Or even running a side board hehe I am too old I guess.

So alas here I am making this deck not so much to fully win anything other than a bit of their misery for just making squirrels and sharks on the board. I mean I didn’t say that…ooops yeah you can’t play land this turn ….oops yeah FlashFire did destroy every single one of both your plains, but what choice do I have?

December 6th. Removed from deck: -Plague Beetle -Thrill of possibility -Swamp

Well I think at 5 CMC its too costly because its driving up the mana cost of the deck for no real advantage, I think its kinda of win more at that point.
