Blade of Selves

Artifact — Equipment

Equipped creature has myriad. (Whenever ts creature attacks, for each opponent other than defending player, you may put a token that's a copy of this creature onto the battlefield tapped and attacking that player or a planeswalker he or she controls. Exile the token at the end of combat.)

Equip (: Attach this to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This enters the battlefield unattached and stays on the battlefield if the creature this card is attached to leaves the battlefield.)

Maybe also Blade of Selves as a Magda tutorable card that combos with Copper Dragon and Blightsteel!

Blade of Selves on Reyhan is a commander damage kill as early as turn 3 (w/ 3 opponents). T1 Sol Ring into Blade. T2 Reyhan. T3 Equip and swing. The 2 Reyhan tokens die to the legend rule and those 6 counters are seen and replaced by all 3 Reyhans for 18x +1+1 counters on the original 3/3.

Thanks for checking out the deck Azoth2099. I wanted to try a different route from going the Ninjutsu route, plus I have a Satoru and Yuriko decks in my meta lol.

I used to have Genasi Enforcers in the deck, but recently replaced it with Saheeli, the Sun's Brilliance. I figured the ceiling was higher. Genasi Enforcers didn't feel great or impactful beyond mid-game turns.

I think I have Elemental Mastery on the Considering list for my Moxfield version of the deck (I peeped you're also on Moxfield from your profile blurb lol).

I haven't used Blade of Selves, but have also had it recommended for my Isshin deck. The 6 total mana to cast & equip is kind of a buzz kill for me. I don't really use equipment much in my decks besides Swiftfoot Boots, Lightning Greaves, & Skullclamp.

This Commander is so awesome lol. I've been wanting to brew it myself, but I keep getting distracted.

Have you tested Genasi Enforcers, Blade of Selves or Elemental Mastery here?

Have you ever considered Reyhan, Last of the Abzan / Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker as your commanders? They draw a LOT less hate, are easier on early mana to cast, and most importantly, having an Ozolith effect in the Command zone makes the deck far more explosive and resilient than a single proliferate per turn cycle.

It also opens up some really interesting possibilities like Blade of Selves or a kicked Rite of Replication on Reyhan. Blade is 18x +1+1 counters (a commander damage kill as early as turn 3... t1 Sol Ring into Blade, t2 Reyhan, t3 equip and swing.) and Rite is 90x +1+1 counters (this isn't even counting extra +1+1 counters or counter doublers.)

Feel free to check out my list for ideas and the deck description for a better explanation and the math for Blade of Selves/Rite of Replication. Little Rey of Ishine (Reyhan/Ishai)

Blade of Selves on Reyhan is a commander damage kill as early as turn 3. Each copy of Reyhan sees and replaces their 3 counters so 2 die to the legend rule and their 6 counters are seen and replaced by all 3 Reyhans for 18 counters. Rite of Replication kicked targeting Reyhan is 90 counters (or 30 increments of 3 counters). Check my deck description for the actual math when you factor in counter doublers etc.

Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Little Rey of Ishine (Reyhan/Ishai)

Deck Updates

These are changes based on game testing and new cards I think will improve the deck significantly. My goals are to increase the synergy but also the flow of the deck.

Cards I took out: - Athreos, God of Passage / I prefer creatures in the graveyard - Liesa, Forgotten Archangel / I prefer creatures in the graveyard - Syr Konrad, the Grim / Doesn't trigger enough for my taste - Wrath of God / I've noticed that board whipping is less effective than I thought in this deck and out of both Damnation Will be easier to cast with our mana production - Dictate of Erebos / As good as this card is Grave Pact does it for less. Additionally, I have never used its flash ability

Cards I put in: - Archaeomancer's Map / Better ramp - Blade of Selves / Myriad is crazy in this deck and can lead to quick victories or even infinite combos (which usually lead to victory) - Mondrak, Glory Dominus / This card is WAY TOO GOOD in this deck. It double tokens! It's a sacrifice outlet that makes it indestructible!! Also it combos infinitely with Blade of Selves and Ratadrabik of Urborg - Boromir, Warden of the Tower / This card alone is really good but it combos infinitely with Ratadrabik of Urborg and can be a powerful combo with cards like Grave Pact and Proper Burial - Gandalf the White / Double death triggers means double tokens with Ratadrabik of Urborg or quick wins with cards like Kokusho, the Evening Star

Things to change in the Future - Currently trying to fit "Samwise the Southearted" and "The Golden Throne" into the deck for a few additional mana combos / stabilize the mana production. - I might try to fit in "Dictate of Erebos" if possible...

Azoth2099 on Kaalia, help wanted

Hey dude! Good Commander choice, Kaalia of the Vast has been my main option for years now.

I'll try to keep this brief lol.

The most important thing to remember when brewing this one is to not get distracted by the possibilities of all those Angels, Demons & Dragons. Focus on card quality above all else, the Spells that are going to win you the game.

Razaketh, the Foulblooded & Vilis, Broker of Blood are the top dogs here, their power as individual cards will oftentimes win you game from sheer value. Other pieces like Rune-Scarred Demon, Burning-Rune Demon & Hoarding Broodlord will do the same if you build around them with Spells like Ephemerate & Saw in Half.

I'd also recommend more Treasure tokens! I see you're already running Smothering Tithe & Goldspan Dragon, which is a great start. Adding Ancient Copper Dragon, Cavern-Hoard Dragon, Monologue Tax, Lotho, Corrupt Shirriff & of course Dockside Extortionist will make sure that your deck doesn't necessarily need it's Commander on the field to function. There are also a few lines via Dockside Extortionist & Razaketh, the Foulblooded that deal infinite damage, produce infinite Mana and yield infinite Tutors, which we can get into later if you decide to go that route.

Wrapping up on Mana, I'd also recommend more Rituals and Rocks. Dark Ritual, Burnt Offering & Seething Song are great, as are Talisman of Hierarchy, Talisman of Conviction & Talisman of Indulgence. A Thran Dynamo could be good too. Oh man, Hellkite Tyrant can steal your opponents Rocks, which counts as Ramp I guess?

Anyway, moving on to card draw! Kaalia of the Vast runs through a lot of cards if you build her right, and keeping your hand full is a priority. Necropotence, Black Market Connections, Dark Tutelage, & Dark Confidant are great ways to turn your Life total into more gas. Esper Sentinel & Archivist of Oghma scale with your opponent's activity. None of them will do as much heavy lifting as Vilis, Broker of Blood, but that's honestly asking a lot of any card other than Ad Nauseam.

Onto the deck engine! I see you're running a few things to double down on your Commander's effect, like Aggravated Assault, Blade of Selves & Isshin, Two Heavens as One. While this strategy seems like a great idea on paper, it's actually not as efficient for the deck as it seems. Running a Reanimator strategy to ensure that the deck can continue to cheat creatures out without having to rely on it's Commander to do so is a far more powerful & consistent strategy. Spells like Entomb, Reanimate, Final Parting, Buried Alive, Victimize, Animate Dead, & Karmic Guide will pull a lot of weight in this context.

I could talk about Kaalia of the Vast all day, but I'll stop here. Let me know how you feel about these suggestions.

Also, here's my own list if you want to check it out: ANCIENT DRAGON TEMPEST (KAALIA)

Cheers!
