BUMP BUZZING CHROMIUM FOR SOMEONE ELSE!

Alright. Here's the situation. I seriously doubt Chromium, the Mutable would work good as an ESPER CMDR here. I've a lot of things to add at some point, but I'm unsure what CMDR to replace Chromium 2.0 though:

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic : We're playing powerful cards that best fit my Vorthos Deck based on "BMH: The UnExperience", if you want to poke fun at that name, not do something Orzhov () can do better w/o .

Zur the Enchanter : Don't get me wrong, he's awesome, but... just look at the number Enchantments I have already; not even enough to warrant this.

Sen Triplets : I seriously dunno how the Powerpuff Girls as Esperites would work as it just simply counts as only one opponent as a target each turn. Skip.

Sharuum the Hegemon : Remember when Breya, Etherium Shaper outclasses this creature after Commander 2016? This Sphinx is worse here as this is not an artifact manipulation deck.

Sydri, Galvanic Genius : If she were a Legendary Artifact Creature, she would be WAY better than the aforementioned Sphinx that's more incorrect than The Riddler. Even so, this is a skip for the same reasons as the Hegemon herself.

Merieke Ri Berit : Err... Why would I use this, when I plan to update this deck with one Perplexing Chimera that, when one casts something good, I trade control over such a much needed creature anyway, while Eldrazi Displacer can easily give me back my Chimera. Now I just want to protect my Displacer though....

Aminatou, the Fateshifter : Awesome Walker, unsure if she'll do any good here; though this is part Value Town, so how should I know? Opinions?

Ertai, the Corrupted : The original Ertai, Wizard Adept is far & away, the better creature, & the latter is better off as a part of the 99 (98 is Partners based...) anyway.

Varina, Lich Queen : If I wanted to make a Zombie Tribal Deck, I'd use either her, or even Thraximundar ; & exclude anything involving "Gisa the Mad"; she's a (A kitten died as I said the B word, & is censored by #CATMEGEDDON), & clearly wants to kill both Stitcher Geralf , Ludevic, Necro-Alchemist , & everything they both worked on as "Impurities" to the undead. Kaya, Orzhov Usurper , & Teyo Verada both say hi, you Mad, Necromancing, Excuse for a MTG Character. I hope you get executed by the Inquisitors of Innistrad; by Guillotine! & if anyone tries to use Ghoulcaller Gisa, even Gisa & Geralf (See? No Links because Gisa the Mad doesn't deserve this crap! :D) for Zombie Tribal decks in the future, Grimgrin, Corpse-Born & Rooftop Storm both say the exact thing Anne Robinson will say to everyone as a former game show host: (Tips head) "You suck!" (Smirks like an asshole).

/endrant, & all further use of Gisa abusing Geralf in all errata, & decks with said errata; Geralf is wiser, & more reserved anyway. I can relate to Geralf more than that Kaya-Hating Brother Killer not deserving of life anyway. :D

/endrantforreal.

Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign : Finally... something. While I do have some even costs here & there, at least this seems decent as I have more odd costs. I wonder...

Dakkon Blackblade : Are you an idiot!? Blackblade Reforged is basically the same effect, just a Legendary Artifact - Equipment. Skip for damn sure! &, Gideon Jura is using it now, after he was dubbed a crap leader of the Gatewatch by Nicol Bolas, & lost his Sural & Self-Determination! I bet he now has in his blood!

Dromar, the Banisher : Why the bloody hell would anyone run Monocolors still?!

Chromium : What the hell is Rampage? How does this work, & why am I taxed to keep this MechaGodzilla wannabe incarnation of one from Core 19 that's far better?!

Halfdane & Lady Evangela : Legends sucked as a whole when it came to their Legendary Creatures. These two are no exception.

(Any Partner CMDR Duos that have a combined Identity of ): (Rips one of them to show they suck.)

Yep, that's my thoughts of all the other Esper Legends. If you have something to say that could be used in this situation in place of Chromium, the Mutable , your opinions for a better substitute is very much welcome. It's just I'm running a COMPLETELY differing deck than what Esper normally runs.

Opinions are open for debate now. Oh, & about Geralf, here's his best quote as a warning to priests (Including Gisa the Mad as a Ghoulcaller.) as he zaps hell on Innistrad:

"Let those idiot priests tremble! A new era in unlife begins here and now. Oglor, raise the lightning vane!"

You have to admit, this is Geralf at his most badass. I don't even give a crud about "Olgor" anyway. PX

ThoAlmighty on What instrument would Chromium play?

1 year ago

I recently made a finalized draft of an EDH decklist centered around banding, with Chromium at the helm (for more old-school mechanics). As the easiest way to give banding consistently is with the cycle of banding lands (for this deck, Cathedral of Serra, Unholy Citadel, and Seafarer's Quay), the deck has a historic theme. The joke of the deck is that all the legendary creatures are part of a band, so after I put the deck together I was planning to alter all of them with simple clipart-ish instruments. My question is: based on the art and character of each card, what instrument should I paint?

Some of them are fairly simple, like Ayesha Tanaka. It's not a stretch to say she's singing, so I could paint a little microphone next to her. Odric, Lunarch Marshal could be playing a cello. Although recognizability is important, I'd like a lot of different instruments. The sillier, the better. Any ideas?

All legendary creatures in the deck Show

Demonlord Belzenlok (accordion?)

Vona, Butcher of Magan

Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign (trumpet?)

Gideon, Ally of Zendikar

Gideon of the Trials

Sorin, Solemn Visitor (he can't turn into a creature but it'd still be neat)

Not sure I agree with idea of Chromium having a servant storywise, but sure, why not?

Designed to synergize with Chromium, the Mutable rather than just Chromium.

Holy bombshells, Batman:

Open after you read the piece Show

Nissa ends her oath, which was seriously unexpected.

Chandra departs to get stronger, but don't know how.

JOSU!

Poor Dakkon...his name removed as Chromium's killer, so Belzenlok did it instead. May he be avenged.

I'm seeing a ton of pointers for Liliana's character to develop. This chapter has all the foreshadowing you need. It's everywhere.

I recently purchased a Chromium and I've begun brewing him but as for what I play lately it's been all Titania, Protector of Argoth

I ran into similar problems and tried turning my Breya deck into a Chromium deck. It still got hated on because people still knew what it was all about. I went back to Breya and made her even nastier so she can handle the hate.

One of the 75% deck-building rules is to never try to power down a deck. (There's an article series, I can't remember who wrote it.) Keeping your powerful decks powerful and just playing them more rarely is usually the way to go. Besides, it'll give you an opportunity to play silly, janky stuff. Sydri probably won't make folks forget your Breya deck. But they might if you set it aside for a while and play Xira Arien or something goofy instead.

Still, A+ on the deck name.

SICK DECK! i made some twitches for my FNM, because my playgroup is kinda aggro .

I sided in Arcades Sabboth, Chromium, Palladia-Mors and Vaevictis Asmadi , because i don't want to make bolas' brothers and sisters to feel secluded.
