DemonDragonJ on Waste Not

I have replaced Behold the Beyond with Sidisi, Undead Vizier, which reduced the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.76 to 3.73, because, while BtB was an awesome card, Sidisi is more useful, overall, since she has a lighter drawback, is easier to reanimate to use her ability repeatedly, and also has deathtouch, which shall allow her to put creatures into my opponents' graveyard, as I would prefer to plunder my opponents' graveyards with The Mimeoplasm, before I plunder my own.

I run a Toluz deck! Anything with transmute is a great addition (read: Dimir Infiltrator)

Also. Flux is great, as is Behold the Beyond and Approach of the Second Sun.

I have replaced Ring of Three Wishes with Behold the Beyond, which, unfortunately, did increase the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.89 to 3.92, but that increase is not as terrible as it may seem to be, since I would have needed to spend ten mana to use the ring once, and the sorcery can help to put creatures into my graveyard, for The Mimeoplasm to copy.

DemonDragonJ on Behold the Beyond or Rune-Scarred …

I have two decks that place a strong emphasis on reanimating creatures from graveyards, either my own or those of my opponents, one of which has Tariel, Reckoner of Souls as the general and the other of which has Teneb, the Harvester as the general. I currently have a copy of Ring of Three Wishes in both of those decks, but I plan to replace those copies with copies of either Behold the Beyond or Rune-Scarred Demon, but I am not certain which card to put into those decks, so I seek the advice of the other members of this forum on this subject.

Putting aside the fact that both cards allow their controller to search their library, they each work toward different strategies: BtB can potentially put creatures in my graveyard, which I could then reanimate, but the demon is, itself, a creature, which I could sacrifice (as each of those two decks contains numerous sacrifice outlets) and then reanimate. In perfect honesty, I do favor the demon, but I shall consider everyone's opinion on this subject.

What does everyone else say about this? Which card should I put in those two decks?

TypicalTimmy, my Nekusar, the Mindrazer deck needs the creature, as that deck has a minor emphasis on creatures, leaving me vulnerable when I play it, but I could use Behold the Beyond in any other deck that contains black, although I would first need to ensure that my hand is empty, since only certain decks of mine have a strong emphasis on using the graveyard as a resource. Also, I have only one deck that focuses on "flickering" creatures, and that deck does not contain the color black, so I cannot put the demon in that deck.

legendofa, any deck of mine that contains the color black will have an unconditional tutor, because I see no reason to not use such a card.

As for my other decks, I have two decks that have a strong emphasis on creatures, so I have Shared Summons in those two decks; I have a deck with a strong emphasis on instants and sorceries, so it contains Solve the Equation; this deck focuses on both creatures and instants/sorceries, so I am not certain whether to replace Ring of Three Wishes with either Shared Summons or Solve the Equation. The rest of my decks do not clearly emphasize a single card type over another, so that makes it more challenging to find a replacement for the ring in those decks.

If you're looking for a 7mv card that tutors, Behold the Beyond exists. Significantly cheaper than Ring and more valuable than Rune if you don't have a flicker / token effect in play. Same mana, 3x the value.

cool combo with famished paladin! never seen that before.
if you feel like you want to go in heavier on a 3 card combo there is always Behold the Beyond , which i think is pretty decent in general, but i guess ideally you would already have something like Lightning Greaves on the field so that you can give your paladin haste so he can tap.
cheers!
