DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep the "Demigod …

2 months ago

I used to have copies of the "demigod auras" in the majority of my EDH decks, but I recently have been removing those auras in favor of cards that better fit the theme of each deck (except for my Uril, the Miststalker deck, since auras are a major part of that deck's strategy), so I am now contemplating if I should remove them from my Jenara, Asura of War deck.

At an initial glance, that would seem to be an easy decision, but Jenara herself is often one of the main win conditions of that deck; the deck is not a full Voltron deck, but I do very often rely upon the strategy of summoning her as early as possible and then continually attacking with her while making her more powerful, and the auras certainly help with that strategy, but I very much would to like put both Sylvan Library and Trelasarra, Moon Dancer in that deck, since gaining life is a major theme of that deck.

What does everyone else say about this? Should I keep the "demigod auras" in my Jenara deck, or replace them with cards that are less fragile?

Niko9 on Should I Keep Luminarch Ascension …

I do think that Luminarch Ascension is a little slow without ways of proliferating or something like that. As far as what to add though, you can't really go wrong with sentinel or smothering tithe as generically good cards, but you also don't have a ton of synergy with either. Smothering Tithe is good ramp, but it's at it's best in an artifacts matter deck. And Esper Sentinel is amazing for card advantage, but I feel like your deck is more about attacking than necessarily value.

If it was me I'd probably look at this deck as a massive pump deck. Things like Ancestral Mask or Blackblade Reforged or even Eldrazi Conscription that can make your commander into a huge threat.

But it's all what you like to do. You have a very well balanced deck that can respond to a lot of things, and it looks awesome. I definitely look at Jenara, Asura of War and think that she could make a terrifying auras/enchantress commander, but that's just me : )

And maybe an odd choice, but I feel like Slippery Bogbonder is a very underrated card. It's like a counter plus a creature plus a really weird upside effect, and the hexproof counter is really hard for an opponent to get rid of.

So, I don't know, too much info maybe : ) Sorry. I do think that luminarch is a good call to replace, but you have tons of options. At least it's not the worst problem. Hope it ends up great!

DemonDragonJ on Should I Keep Luminarch Ascension …

I have a copy of Luminarch Ascension in my Jenara, Asura of War EDH deck, because I think that it is an awesome card that can quickly produce a massive army of tokens if it is left unchecked, but that same reason will also make its controller a major target, and it is highly unlikely that their opponents shall simply allow that card to reach its fullest potential, so I am contemplating removing it from that deck, and replacing it with another card.

At this moment, I am considering either Smothering Tithe, Windborn Muse, or Esper Sentinel as replacements for it, since each of those card is an excellent card in its own right, although there could be another card that would be even better for that deck.

What does everyone else say about this? Should I replace Luminarch Ascension, and, if I do, with which card should I replace it?

DemonDragonJ on Rhystic Study or Smothering Tithe?

1 year ago

I am planning to replace Ring of Three Wishes in my green/white/blue Jenara, Asura of War EDH deck, but I am not certain with what card I should replace it.

I am deciding between two cards: Rhystic Study or Smothering Tithe, which are two cards that are infamous for taxing their controller's opponents while providing card advantage to their controller, but both cards are so excellent that I am not certain which I should choose.

Rhystic Study has a lower mana cost, and also would help to ensure that white is not too prevalent over the other colors, but Smothering Tithe is about to be reprinted in Double Masters 2022, which shall almost certainly lower its price, so I am not certain which is the better card.

What does everyone else say about this? Which card should replace Ring of Three Wishes in my Jenara deck?

One of my early EDH decks was Jenara, Asura of War and I had the deck be mostly control with ramp and force multipliers to speed things along.

I love combo, but this deck makes me nostalgic for that deck.

I'd like to see more uses for Training Grounds , as it currently only interacts with Stoneforge Mystic and Thrasios, Triton Hero .

Tamiyo, Nucleus of the Gatewatch

Legendary Planeswalker - Tamiyo

Protection from red

At the beginning of your end step, if you activated two or more abilities of nonland permanents you control that are not mana abilities this turn, proliferate.

+1 Look at the top five cards of your library. You may reveal any number of planeswalker cards from among them and put them into your hand. Then put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

-3 Until the end of your next turn, whenever an opponent attacks you or a planeswalker you control with any number of creatures, you may draw a card. Those creatures don't untap during their controller's next untap step. At the beginning of your next upkeep, if no opponent attacked you or a planeswalker you control during their last turn, put a loyalty counter on ~.

-7 You get an emblem with "Whenever you activate an ability of a nonland permanent you control that isn't a mana ability, you may copy it. You may choose new targets for the copy."

~ can be your commander.

Create a new card for a legendary creature from Alara block. It has to include in its color identity a color that its first card didn't include. P.S. I already did one for Jenara, Asura of War a few cards up, so please don't create on for her.

Tariel, Reckoner of Souls seems like a really fun commander with a lot of different builds you could do. I don't lie Jenara, Asura of War mainly because it's kind of a boring card.

I've never made a grixis commander deck, I might have to try it out sometime!

King_marchesa, two legendary creatures whom I have rarely ever seen as generals are Jenara, Asura of War and Tariel, Reckoner of Souls, so I think that they both are very unusual but interesting choices to lead and EDH deck.
