Squee_Spirit_Guide on Win Conditions / Near-whining Musings

1 year ago

Full disclaimer, I've only ever built one Commander deck and it didn't have a win condition. But outside of Commander, sometimes I start with a win condition. When I do it's usually as a challenge, like winning with Barren Glory, or Filibuster counters. When I do that, I'll try to optimize as much as possible to make the janky win-con work as well as possible.

Most of the decks I have on here fall into that category, but the decks I usually build in paper and play all started with jamming cards I like into a pile, and the win condition (if it exists) was an afterthought. Most of the time my decks could be better if I used different cards or had a more reliable win condition, but for me the fun is in playing and using the cards I like rather than winning outright. Because, let's face it, if you get Spirit of the Night into play by saccing Urborg Panther, Breathstealer, and Feral Shadow you've already won :)

One of mine was Spirit of the Night . I love the artwork on this card. I never played it with Urborg Panther , Feral Shadow and Breathstealer like you're supposed to. Mostly because I was like 12 at the time and didn't have the awareness that competitive magic was a thing. I might build a Mono Black deck one day around this "combo" just for old times sake.

this reminds me of the mirage classic Spirit of the Night coming in to play by way of sacking Urborg Panther, Feral Shadow, and Breathstealer. I have to dig deeper on your stuff if you get the chance check out my blue black madness deck I posted a few days back. I really want to recommend Raven's Crime to you 4 copies would at least make the deck playable for now plus it super sweet when you top deck land and can make your opponent drop control cards, actually had to explain to my gf, and best friend that countering it was just tapping land and still discarding a card lol

The Urborg Panther, Breathstealer and Feral Shadow combo isn't going to come off often at all, and those creatures are a bit sub-par otherwise, so I'd drop those. Knight of Dusk is also a bit overpriced, its essentially going to end up being a 2/2 unblockable for 3, except slightly worse. I'd replace those with things like Tormented Soul, the dauthi, an Ornithopter, or a Signal Pest to trigger your commander's ninjutsu. For defenses, you might like Ophiomancer and Royal Assassin, both of which should usually outperform Wall of Corpses, and the latter of which would help out your Scarblade Elite. I'd also consider putting in a Ruthless Ripper, which is good either for defense or for triggering ninjutsu.

You also might consider other stuff that like creatures dying, such as Toshiro Umezawa, Harvester of Souls, and Reaper from the Abyss.
