Udpate 18-07-2023: Trying to lean into more two colour for the theme. also d=trying to lower curve, focus on protecting PWs to actually get ultimates off, as the deck struggles to close games. Idea before was almost that any of the good stuff I find can run away with the game (assemble the legion and narset), but I don't think winning that way will be as satisfying. I think it would be good if I can get a PW out, get them to ult, and if that fails, niv to refresh hand and then give it another go.

Also love the Dragonlords.... Dragonlord Ojutai is my favorite! *by the way did you ever notice the "decoration" around Dragonlord Silumgars neck? lol i love it!) nobody liked Tasigur, the Golden Fang anyway :p

If memory serves me right there was a gathering of the kahns at a mountaintop and there is a moment here/there which determined the future of the plane of Tarkir.... led by dragons or led by the humans.... In the future where dragons rule i believe it was Ojutai who tipped the scales in the dragons favor and the "fall of the humans"... granted it comes off as a bad thing but overall was the better future for the plane.

Dragonlord timeline Ojutai is connected to Narset Transcendent having her spark ignite by the discovery of Ojutai's role in the alternate timeline of Tarkir.

Kahns timeline Narset, Enlightened Master was leader of the Jeskai clan.... I believe there was some sort of major battle and due to timeline/magic/distraction she was felled in combat by Zurgo Helmsmasher.

and that pretty much everything i remember storywise regarding Tarkir/Ojuatai/Silumgar

I wanted to build a deck like this when I first saw Narset, Enlightened Master. You beat me to it! Haha

AstroAA on Mono Red infinite combos???

It seems that all the decks that your mates are running are based on cheating things into play or casting things for free. Grafdigger's Cage is an absolute must. One mana to fuck over both Rashmi, Eternities Crafter and Narset, Enlightened Master. Weathered Runestone is also good for this.

Narset, Enlightened Master's cheat is based on her attacking, so prevent her from attacking. Ensnaring Bridge and Meekstone are good for this.

Meanwhile, for Rashmi, Eternities Crafter, the method to tackling her is to tax the ever-loving shit out of her. Thorn of Amethyst, Trinisphere, Sphere of Resistance, etc. Even if they are able to cast spells for free, they still have to pay the tax. Void Mirror is also an excellent option. Note, all of these methods can also stop the Narset deck.

Meanwhile, Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow is harder to deal with in my opinion since she's putting cards directly into their hand as opposed to having them draw cards. I think the main method of going about stopping them is boardwipes such as Anger of the Gods and Sweltering Suns, as these can help kill the creatures that she hopes to attack with to cheat herself into play for the card advantage. Spot removal such as Lightning Bolt works too.

DJ-Ango on Mono Red infinite combos???

First of all, thanks for all of the suggestions so far. As far as alternate commanders go, Godo is a no no. He’s really boring in my opinion, but definitely a more competitive option. I already have a decent Yuriko list for my meta, so I’m looking to build something more unique. Birgi will definitely be in the 99, as it’s just a good red card and Kiki-Jiki as well. Cloudstone Curio is definitely a great combo piece, so I’ll try to find a cheap copy or trade for it. I may run some of the control pieces you mentioned, because those are a great way to shut down especially the Narset, Enlightened Master deck that always gives me trouble. Birgi could be cool as the commander, so I’ll brew both lists and see what I prefer. Also I definitely can’t afford the Wheel of Fortune and Lion's Eye Diamond needed for the combo from Grubbernaut, but thanks for the help.

I’m building a Zada, Hedron Grinderdeck, because I love aggro with all my heart, but the truth of the matter is, it won’t compete with the Narset, Enlightened Master and Rashmi, Eternities Crafter decks at my table. So, I need a few quick wins such as Heat Shimmer and Dualcaster Mage. So, what’re some good ideas for infinite combos in red? Preferably try to keep things pretty budget, but I’m open to ideas.

nbarry223 on Wait... wtf

In your current shell, Coalition Victory does absolutely nothing for you, as most games should be over before it even comes down, looking at the rest of your list. It's a cute alternate win-con, but you would need a way to cheat it out early for it to be viable.

The best idea that I can think of to break Coalition Victory is Starfield of Nyx with an enchantment based self-mill. That's a super fragile combo that dies to gravehate though. There would also be Lost Auramancers with Vampire Hexmage and/or Hex Parasite (Training Grounds could help the later option). While you're at it, I'll just throw out reanimating Narset, Enlightened Master with Goryo's Vengeance as an option to cast it while we are at it.

All of these could probably be stuffed into the same deck, but it would end up super janky and probably not be viable though, because of how fast modern is as a format.

Gidgetimer on Eleven, the mage timing restrictions?

2 years ago

Eleven, the Mage instructs you to cast the spell as part of the resolving ability, so timing restrictions are ignored since you can not normally cast any spell while another spell or ability is resolving.

Contrast this with Narset, Enlightened Master who allows you to cast non-creature spells from among the exiled cards "this turn".
