Salvage Scout

Creature — Human Scout

{{W}}, Sacrifice Salvage Scout: Return target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand.

mistborn314 on A Little Off the Top: Ao, the Dawn Sky EDH

Your Trilobite loop does work since each iteration nets you CC. You loop Ao's counter LTB trigger until you have an arbitrarily large amount of mana. Then loop Ao using the first LTB trigger to dump your library.

I'm pretty sure that you do not receive priority to cast Swift Reconfiguration on a 0/0 Ballista before it dies to state-based actions. I think a better line is Salvage Scout (it's 1 MV can tutored for by the Rangers) to sac and return Ballista to hand. You need infinite mana and that's game.

Question: What is you target for Moon-Blessed Cleric? Renewal? Heliod?

LeonSpires on Teshar cEDH

@ McToters Thank you for checking out my list and taking the time to comment! Most of the time the goal of my list is to find a loop utilizing Teshar that goes infinite as soon as possible. Example (1) Teshar + Myr Retriever + Ashnod's Altar + Memnite. Example (2) Teshar + Lion's Eye Diamond + Salvage Scout. These are only a few examples of many as the deck gets its consistency by running numerous redundant effects.

The only time this is not the plan is when a silver bullet like Grafdigger's Cage, Rule of Law, or Null Rod is in play. In these cases the goal is to dig for removal for the silver bullet.

I don't often sac my entire board. But I have sometimes sacrificed most of the artifacts I control in response to another player casting Dockside Extortionist.

Roar of Reclamation: Not only is it's CMC too high but in cEDH I would be worried about returning opponents silver bullets or cards like Lotus Petal, Jeweled Lotus or Lion's Eye Diamond.

I do think Second Sunrise is a fantastic card in a casual Teshar list where the goal isn't to combo out as soon as possible but to create value engine and win in the long run.

Cool deck!!
Sigarda's Aid seems good.
Inventors' Fair seems playable.
Salvage Scout or Buried Ruin allow you to return a destroyed artifact.
Not sure if you would run any of Lapse of Certainty or Pyroblast or Tibalt's Trickery for your sunforger package.
Just some ideas cheers!

Guyu,

I have tested some of the lands that give life, they aren't really good. This deck is really hungry for white mana and drawing those in the early game feels really bad. It is nice that they have some incidental synergy with the commander and the combo, but it is really not enough to include them.

cablespy,

That is a hard question to answer because it is very situational. Obviously you want to grab Walking Ballista and then the second target can be anything that will help you. For example, if you are playing vs decks with Food Chain, you may want to grab a Suture Priest. If you think there will be counter magic or removal, you can grab Salvage Scout. what you grab depends on the board state and the decks you are playing against. This deck has answeres to almost, if not all, of the decks in the format.

Scroll of Avacyn , Sunbeam Spellbomb , Origin Spellbomb , and Soul-Guide Lantern would be good for 'mono white' card draw for your deck since you can get them out of the graveyard for value with your commander.

Heliod's Intervention is really good for removal as well as Crush Contraband. Swords to Plowshares is almost a must for white decks since it is just such good removal.

Stuff like Salvage Scout , Restoration Specialist , and Treasure Hunter let you get back the low cmc value artifacts back from your graveyard. Myr Retriever and Scrap Trawler will also get you back stuff.

I would do some searches for infinite combos for Teshar since I don't know of any off the top of my head, but I know they are out there.

Ohhh yeah. Also, just another "Construct" for Scrapyard Recombiner (though it is not currently in my list). So, Salvager of Ruins makes for an excellent Apostle. Hell, maybe even the best Apostle this list could have received. It will replace Restoration Specialist , as she only fulfilled a niche role in the list. Either Ranger-Captain of Eos of Recruiter of the Guard can hunt down our Salvage Scout , should the Lion's Eye Diamond line be made available. It's important to note two things in concerns to Salvager of Ruins: 1. It can go off without a Sacrifice outlet; 2. The Answers/Rewards we use must have been removed from the Battlefield -> Graveyard that same turn, so it's a bit trickier to set up, however... It is an auto-include for it's massive potential, as it returns any permanent. It isn't only a recurring combo piece, it's protection. I absolutely love it.

franknot.19 on Lin Sivvi, leader of the angel rebellion

Here some suggestion:

Removal:

Crib Swap (work well with the second ability of Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero ) and replace Celestial Flare

Condemn and replace Dispense Justice

Swords to Plowshares and replace Glimpse the Sun God

Rebels:

Ramosian Revivalist and replace High Sentinels of Arashin i think it will be better in youre Marath deck.

Mirror Entity and replace Hundred-Handed One

Changeling Hero and replace Pious Warrior

Theyre other humans you could replace for theses rebels. Keep them in youre maybebord for now Lawbringer Ballista Squad Lightbringer

Mana Ramp: (try other cards first, just put them in you're maybebord) Knight of the White Orchid Burnished Hart Gift of Estates

Humans: Crovax, Ascendant Hero and replace Salvage Scout

Angels: Reya Dawnbringer and replace Kytheon's Irregulars

Lands: ( replace 5 plains for those cards)

Mistveil Plains

Karoo

Emeria, The Sky Ruin (that cards worth it money in a mono white)

Evolving Wilds

Terramorphic Expanse

BMHKain on Descisions... Descisions... New Gates... or …

Well after my denial w/ Boros, I actually have one other plan in mind...

Should I make a Gate Deck, or what? Just asking to be sure...
