I love this one as a commander! Here is my take on your deck list: - Since you seem to create a good amount of treasure token, I think Blood Artist would be a good addition and synergyze well with your commander second effect. You can add any other card that does the equivalent (ie. Falkenrath Noble) - Your commander first effect would require some blink. That said, Rakdos doesn't have that much flicker cards. I would add may be a Mirror of Life Trapping or a Conjurer's Closet (this one is probably to expansive to even consider it).

Mirror of Life Trapping maybe. Mirror Box so you can copy legendary creatures

Blinking scarecrows is good, especially if you blink all of them at once. Eerie Interlude etc.

Mirror of Life Trapping makes all scarecrows enter the battlefield twice.

Clout of the Dominus or Pledge of Loyalty is cheap protection for the King. Spirit of Resistance is nice if the King is on the board.

Mirror of Life Trapping would double your tokens, one on cast then another when it pops out of the mirror.

You don't need to cast the dragon, it just needs to enter the battlefield. Any cards you own the blink a creature will give you a free Dragon token. Especially look ay things like Spark Double that can copy Miirym and then you get multiple token copies.

Mirror of Life Trapping will let you copy a cast dragon, then when anybody casts the next creature you get another copy as it re-enters the battlefield.

You don't have to cast the dragons, they just have to enter the battlefield. Cards that blink creatures would give you an extra token. Mirror of Life Trapping would give you a token on ETB then another as any dragon inside pops out. For eleven cents.

I pulled a full art foil Mirror of Life Trapping and didn't really consider it for anything.

Was making swaps in my Miirym deck and decided to give it a whirl.

Lemme tell you whuat. That's something all kinds of nasty in there. Whew.

You cast the Dragon, it ETB and you got at least two triggers to resolve. Mirror and Miirym. Suppose the Dragon that ETB has a trigger as well, like Scourge of Valkas.

Stack em so Mirror is first, Scourge is second and Miirym is third.

Resolve.

Miirym copies Scourge.

New Scourge goes on the stack.

Token Scourge deals tons of damage.

OG scourge deals damage.

Mirror exiles OG.

You keep the token.

Then, when another creature spell is cast, OG re-enters and you get the token Scourge, OG Scourge, Miirym and the new-new token Scourge triggers all over again.

Like throwing a tanker truck of gasoline on an oil fire.

TypicalTimmy on Cards similar to Mirror of …

Hello, I was hoping for advice from more experienced players.

I'm looking for cards that are similar in their execution as Mirror of Life Trapping, specifically in Temur colors.

I have a deck that copies ETB effects and Mirror has proven very useful. I know of other cards such as Strionic Resonator, but I was hoping for those that don't have activated costs.

This way I can engine off and get a ton of value, without having to also add in some combo-heavy nonsense to constantly use something over and over again.

Thanks.
