Phillthethrill on (En)Rage(eD) - AKA 2 Angry Bois (3.0)

1 week ago

04/03/2024 (3.0) skipped a bunch of versions because this was a bigger update.

Haven't spent much time on this one, while building a couple other decks. Now returning to with fresh eyes, refining the focus, checking to see if any of these cards work better in the newer lists (lots going to Rakdos), and I actually purchased a few inexpensive additions.

The biggest upgrades are: A bunch of awesome lands in hand card advantage that can be: reload lightning bolt lands or landfall drops depending on which commander I am playing.

Bag of Holding, Creeping Renaissance, Praetor's Counsel, Barrel Down Sokenzan, Nahiri's Lithoformingfoil

Jolrael, Empress of Beasts to turn my opponents precious lands into lightning bolt targets for a little bit of control.

Upgraded Voyaging Satyr to Krosan Restorer though i am less convinced of thier overall value here at this time.

I put my Grafted Exoskeleton back in. I thought making Borborygmos a tripple barreled poison counter machine gun mighy be a bit much. But then I played a couple friends whose decks were far meaner than I expected. So here we are.

Removed: Traveler's Amulet (HOU) Feed the Clan (KTK) Vessel of Volatility (SOI) Voyaging Satyr (THS) Tunneling Geopede (BFZ) Pilgrim's Eye (BFZ) Burnished Hart (THS) Everflowing Chalice (WWK) Flamekin Herald (CMR)

A classic meme deck is 99 basic lands and a commander. Meloku the Clouded Mirror, Jolrael, Empress of Beasts, and Korlash, Heir to Blackblade are some examples.

I love the concept of landfall and man lands. It's such a unique way to play. 43 Lands deck with Crucible of Worlds is a great way to play. It's such a fun interaction especially with cards like Jolrael, Empress of Beasts. As far as the woke trans crap, it doesn't surprise me that Wizards hired someone like that. It's trendy regardless of how stupid it is. Oversexualization of magic isn't something anyone wants. The only way we have of protesting their idiocy is to not buy their cards. I will continue to not buy their products. If I do, it will be from individual people or local card shops. I miss the old art style of Legends and 4th Edition. It was some of my favorite times in magic. Before long, I'm sure they'll release a full of set AI generated art on all cards. I definitely would never buy those. As an aspiring writer, I fully support real artists and not AI generated content. Are there any new deck ideas you were working on?

I know and I stand in angry solidarity with you. I haven't bought a new product since 2016. If we are being honest, I'm still pissed they changed the card frame back in Mirrodin! The artwork, story telling and card design from Dominaria is nothing more than a distant memory.

I used to play at a card shop with a guy who was a cross dresser then became trans and changed her name not once but twice. They are now employed at WOTC. They are directly responsible for the Yu-Gi-Oh power creep, the awful digital art and injecting race and sexuality into a space that did not need it.

Interesting idea! Could go Gruul as well with Pyrohemia and all the sorcery speed global damage spells.

If you are familiar with my 43 Lands.dec shell Jolrael, Empress of Beasts is going to excel because of all the Crucible of Worlds effects so I'm thinking landfall/man lands is the way to go.

I probably won't be building anymore decks honestly. I got angry with the direction Wizards is taking magic so I stopped deck updates or new deck creation. Blood Funnel is a fun card to play around along with Greel, Mind Raker. Know what would be funny? A land destruction deck with Jolrael, Empress of Beasts. Green/Black with Pestilence or other similar cards.

You should most definitely build a spell control deck. Bant or Esper?

Blood Funnel :) Want to build around that so bad. Maybe I'll squeeze it into Greel, Mind Raker since he is so uninspiring.

This weekends project is going to be building a 43 Lands.dec with Jolrael, Empress of Beasts. I suspect out of all the Spellshapers she is the strongest.

In particular, I'm hoping Natural Affinity and Jolrael, Empress of Beasts affect new lands in play, only because of their ability to also screw over opponents in the case of a board/creature wipe. But my assumption is that I'll be outta luck on this one.

Thelonite Druid is clear in its rulings that it only affects lands on the BF as it resolves. Is this the same for Natural Affinity? Like, if I a sac a Forest creature, will Yedora, Grave Gardener make it come back as another Forest creature, or just as a Forest? What about Jolrael, Empress of Beasts? My assumption is that they all will only affect the lands in play when the effect/spell resolves, but I want to be sure I'm not missing something that makes one different from another. Thanks in advance! :)
