I have to admit, I haven't seen a lot of different opponents recently, but I'll take the other side here. Should somebody be obligated to stay ineffectual just so someone else can benefit?

Eventually, people will start losing one way or another. What difference does it make if they lose by concession, or by life = 0, or by mill? A deck that uses other people's resources will lose those resources no matter what, unless it makes a dedicated effort to keeping its opponents alive. At that point, the opponents are basically being parasitized. Is it worth their time and energy to support someone to no benefit to themselves?

If it makes a difference, I love spamming Dominating Licid and Praetor's Grasp and other "fun" cards. But if someone wants to leave, I'm not going to hold them hostage.

Ok for your opponents


So there are a series of cards from Stronghold, Exodus, and Tempest. They are creatures that transform into auras and can transform back to creatures. And they also fit the "jank" this deck has.

Sorry, I wasn't really being clear. The artifact and enchantment removal can be traded with any of the ones listed. Personally I like all three of the ones I listed more than the ones you currently have.

As for the phantasmal terrain & Seasinger combo, I would definitely trade them out for something else. if you want to stick with the "steal a creature" subtheme you have going on, Dominating Licid could work as a replacement.

About the protection comment, I was talking about the artifacts along with other effects. In your list you have: Lightning Greaves , Swiftfoot Boots , Mask of Avacyn , Darksteel Plate , Whispersilk Cloak , False Demise , Diplomatic Immunity , & Regeneration . I think you may have a few too many, but this is just my personal preference.

Lastly, the deflection effects are usually pretty sumoptimal, but if they're in the deck for the theme, then I totally understand keeping them in.

Dominating Licid is a unique target for LtM. It is a little annoying to get rid of. So awesome against targeted creature removal. The ability to end the effect doesn't use the stack. Almost no one else is going to be using it.

I am in the process of building a new mono-blue Commander deck (Given to Fly). The goal of the deck is to bounce creatures (primarily my opponents' creatures, but I can also bounce my own if it's beneficial), draw a bunch of cards, and win by a combination of slowly draining opponents with cards like Ebony Owl Netsuke and swinging against defenseless opponents with cards like Sturmgeist . I had initially intended for Heidar, Rimewind Master to be in the deck because of the cheap activated cost to bounce creatures, but as it turns out, snow-covered basic lands are expensive as hell and I don't have any. What would you recommend to replace him? I was thinking maybe something like Dominating Licid or Serendib Sorcerer , but maybe you all have better ideas. Thank you!!

Do licids count? There's twelve of them. They let you pay to end a continuous effect; its a special action that doesn't use the stack. I think only Dominating Licid and maybe Transmogrifying Licid see much play, consider them the paragons of the type.

Licids are my favorite obscure creature, though I am not baffled by them.

I recently won a quad with a Dominating Licid. I am certain that I won because it was underestimated by the Niv-Mizzet, Parun combo player. He flashed in Ophidian Eye at the end of my turn, with another player's spell and trigger on the stack. The licid had been sitting there doing nothing for 3 turns amd snuck in for the steal in response to his Ophidian Eye. I countered his first spell and won.
