legendofa on New hubs to be added

Made_Compleat That's one of the most common requests, and one of the hardest to address. Right now, I consider Theft decks to fall under the Aikido hub. This is sort of a tenuous position for them, but I'm not sure how to separate it from the "damage reflection" archetype built around Deflecting Palm, Boros Fury-Shield, and similar cards. They have a similar theme of turning the opponent's deck against them. I'm also not sure if decks based on Control Magic-type effects are similar enough to Threaten + Thud decks to belong in the same hub. Any thoughts you might have are very welcome.

Thanks, Barbarian_Sun_Pope! Boros Fury-Shield is very aikido and very nice! I'm not going to have a huge presence on the board, unlike some token or aggro decks, but regardless Semester's End is good. I would add Boros Fury-Shield instead of Harm's Way, but the MV cost is much more, and all of the cards I've used for this deck, besides Irencrag Pyromancer, I already own. Thank you for taking the time to recommend cards that fit my archetype!

Neat Deck (+1), Gideon Jura might be a good option to protect your creatures as it forces everybody would have to swing at him, it can also force them to run their creature into Deflecting Palm. Boros Fury-Shield has a similar effect if you're looking to double on the damage reflection. If you're worried about board wipe, Semester's End and Cauldron Haze are pretty good options to save your creatures (except for Spellweaver Eternal since it's defense is too low for Cauldron Haze). The -1/-1 counters can even be slowly negated by Basri Ket if you decide to keep him. Hope this helps.

Serene Master and Selfless Squire might be useful here.

Also: Divine Deflection, Boros Fury-Shield

Finally, Brash Taunter + Blazing Sunsteel go infinite.

Hey alexjustdoit i like Boros Fury-Shield and I've been thinking in replace Mirror Strike with it, since I can use it when one of my opponents is attacking another opponent.

Even though Reflect Damage is not tutorable through Sunforger and it's little more expensive, mana and financially, i feel that it can be useful, not only to protect me from creature damage, but also in situations where someone casts a damage boardwipe like Blasphemous Act or Chain Reaction or when someone casts a big X damage spell, like Crackle with Power, we will reflect all the damage back at the caster.

Not related, but i just found Equal Treatment, which i think can be useful against Craterhoof Behemoth like strategies or to pump 1/1 wide tokens. And draws us a card.

Boros Fury-Shield seems to me a more efficient and more flexible Reflect Damage if you're looking for more of that effect but without having to hold up way too much mana

The redirecting damage is more of a red thing. With red you get Deflecting Palm and its little brother Boros Fury-Shield or things like Delirium and Backlash.

Hey, interesting budget version of Kykar.

Lots of burn here doesn't have enough oomph when each opponent will have 40 or more life. Glacial Ray, Magma Spray, Lightning Helix and other single effect burn spells like this are subpar in multiplayer Commander. Flame Rift doesn't do enough, hitting all players for 4 damage a single time is not worth a card. Even being able to flashback these spells with Backdraft Hellkite isn't good enough because they're only doing damage to one player. Some advice is research Torbran, Thane of Red Fell burn decks and mimic the burn strategy with Kykar?

Impact Tremors and Zo-Zu the Punisher are good, it's the kind of repeatable burn you want in multiplayer Commander. Consider more repeatable burn sources?

Barbs and Earth seem like very good repeatable burn sources with Kykar since have lots of mana rocks (could have more), Spirits can make red mana and playing lots of basic lands. Tremors and Goblin Bombardment want an infinite combo for they're burn that can create infinite tokens with Kykar or Saheeli, Sublime Artificer.

By adding this budget combo you add some more competitiveness to your deck and Guttersnipe is another burn win condition with the combo. You can't do this combo if you control Spellshock. But with Jeskai you have many options that can bounce/tuck/destroy an enchantment before comboing while still keeping it in your control to burn your opponents until you want to combo.

What Kykar provides for a burn strategy is extra damage from attacking with fliers, 1/1 Spirits and Kykar. Animosity can make Spirits more of attacking threats and with a lot of them a win condition. Consider increasing the fort with Obedience and Prison? Obedience can also be a nice source of repeatable life gain with extort since you gain life each time equal to the number of opponents you have.

Consider adding more draw as well as more mana efficient draw to expand on spellslinger?

Tandem Lookout when soulbond to a creature who can do damage to an opponent or all opponents you draw cards. Use this interaction with Guttersnipe since when he does damage you draw a number of cards equal to the number of opponents you have. Zo-Zu the Punisher is also good with Lookout because all players can play lands including yourself to draw. Lookout can change who it's soulbond to which is really helpful to first soulbond with flying Kykar or a Spirit and then change when a creature ETB who can do damage to opponents.

Some cards to consider cutting:

Good luck with your deck.
