Glad to see another Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero Deck out there. +1 form me. Maybe you want to have a look at my deck: Lin Sivvi's Rebels. Some suggestions from me:

Thank you.

I started playing Magic a month or so before Masques came out, so it's always had a kind of mystical aspect to me. Is that nostalgia speaking? Sure, somewhat. But in addition to really loving the 'feel' of the setting and the cards, I also had a familiarity with the cards that helps one better appreciate what was available. There are no shortage of superb cards running around in Masques - in addition to what you mentioned, and just off the top of my head, there's also Land Grant , Food Chain , Thwart , Soothsaying , Misdirection , Reverent Mantra , Unmask , Tower of the Magistrate , Haunted Crossroads , Pulverize as well as the last core printings of Dark Ritual and Brainstorm . Sure, the set had a few too many 4/4s for four mana with colosal drawbacks for my taste, too. But you still can't beat some of the inventive fun in Distorting Lens , Two-Headed Dragon and Foster .

Anyways, thanks for sticking up for the little guy as well. Masques is a fascinating set with a beautiful setting and interesting ideas, so it's nice to hear it spoken of in something other than biting vitriol for a change. Honestly, I'd just love to see any of the modern Type 2 decks try and stand a chance against a well-built Rising Waters deck from even Masques block constructed, you know?

Keep fighting the good fight!

Now, I have a Key as a weapon to use...

Suspects: Distorting Lens , Jaya Ballard, Task Mage , & Kurkesh, Onakke Ancient . Sadly I have no Replacement effect for Discard in case one ends up Resting in Peace in Hell... Any ideas in Boros Color?

BUUUUUUUUUUUUMPO'D!!!

I personally wonder if anyone wishes to help on this project at all? I've been working my ass off on my Superfriends/Avengers Deck, as well as cEDH Boros; but a new update has laid waste on the last of the 3: This'll sound Jank, but here are some combos I (And at least one other...) thought of:

  1. Altar of the Brood + Ancestral Statue + Rest in Peace

  2. Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Village Bell-Ringer + Phyrexian Altar

  3. Distorting Lens + Voltaic Key + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Cogwork Assembler + Jaya Ballard, Task Mage ??? (Can this be better for cEDH?)

  4. Smokestack + Assemble the Legion

  5. Feather, the Redeemed + (Is there a way to retrieve cards in exile that have been Discarded?) + (Some way to make all enemy permanents .)...

Sadly that's all I got; & it still sucks. Advice is welcome though! What'ya got?

But I also still need help on Kruphix. So, any suggestions for this as well? I think I've mentioned what I wanted enough times now... Thoughts?

It's more of a control build, using Dromar as an enabler as well as a staller. Incorporating cards like Darkest Hour to change the colors of all creature to black than using Dromar's ability to bounce all creatures.

There are a couple cards that works with this synergy like:

Not to mention with the color hacking synergy you can run cards like:

It's a fun kind of cool theme, there are a lot of color hating cards in the old days, so changing the color of the board and color haxing things is pretty funny. Although you do need quite a bit of mana to work, so Esper colors do rely quite a bit of rocks.

What do you peeps think?

Thanks for the Upvote of my Lin Sivvi Deck.

Some suggestions in addition of franknot.19 for your deck.

I also just realized that Distorting Lens combos with Red Elemental Blast and Pyroblast so that they have some use even outside of playing against blue. I don't expect a lot of protection from color necessarily, except perhaps as a side-effect of a white card, but I can change the color of Jaya, Kumano, the Hammerfist Giant, etc. so that the damage comes from a non-red source if necessary.

I'm tempted to add the Distorting Lens if only because then Jaya can blow up any permanent on the board. For a 2 cmc artifact that allows me to blow up any permanent type, it sounds very tempting; tho I'm not sure how valuable it will actually be. Will I even be casting Jaya with no intention of using her inferno ability (unless I'm blowing up a blue permanent anyway)?
