Shatterstorm

Sorcery

Destroy all artifacts. They can't be regenerated.

KBK7101 on Favorite pulls you've had

1 year ago

plakjekaas I have a similar story about that card! My brother got me the DOM Chandra Planeswalker deck for my birthday a few years ago. I joking said "Wouldn't it be crazy if one of the packs from this deck had Teferi, Hero of Dominaria?"... and it did! lol

The times I opened a foil, borderless Wrenn and Seven after again saying "Wouldn't it be crazy if...", the Amonkhet Invocation of Shatterstorm because Invocations are SO COOL and when I got a random three-pack of MH1 from Amazon that had Wrenn and Six, Fiery Islet and some other random sliver or something.

(Slightly off-topic, but I think my actual favorite pulls are from Flesh and Blood. My first two boxes of Uprising got me 2x rainbow foil Crown of Providence AND a cold foil one!)

Lietenant looks nice on paper at a glance, but tbh I feel like he's for vamps with a very low, fast curve, and imo at least 8 turn 1 creatures.

Reasons to play Orzhov would also include Edgar, Charmed Groom  Flip, Blood Baron of Vizkopa, Adanto Vanguard and Welcoming Vampire. Edgar is the same base effect as Lietenant for twice the mana but Edgar has a much better body, being out of bolt range immediately and immune to Vanishing Verse, and even if he eats a Push or Unholy Heat he doesn't STAY gone. White also gives you access to some of the best sideboard cards ever made including things like Stony Silence and Rest in Peace.

Reasons to play Rakdos are numerous. Stromkirk Noble, Stromkirk Captain, Olivia Voldaren, Insolent Neonate, Falkenrath Pit Fighter, and from the non-creature side, Lightning Bolt, Terminate, Dreadbore, and a whole host of sideboard options like Rakdos Charm, Abrade, Shatterstorm, Boil, and so on.

For sure. I did not realize three visits got a reprint, I was about to ask why you had it lying around. Also this is (mostly) nitpicking but unless you run into many Vandalblast/Shatterstorm affects, you might prefer Turn Aside to Miscast. Finally, kira, glass spinner (some name), which does require a bit of workaround, can result in extremely difficult situations for opponents (single target artifact/enchantment/creature destruction are neutered against you).

If you were to enchant Chromatic Lantern with Curator's Ward, only the lantern will have hexproof. Curator's Ward only provides hexproof to the permanent it is enchanted on. If the Curator's Ward is removed, your Chromatic Lantern will no longer have hexproof as the enchantment giving it hexproof is no longer enchanting it.

If Curator's Ward also had hexproof, it would say so on a separate line. To better illustrate, Darksteel Plate itself has indestructible and gives the equipped creature indestructible. Notice how the two effects are on separate lines. Since that is not the case, Curator's Ward only provides hexproof to whatever it is enchanting.

Hexproof only protects something from being targeted. An effect needs to explicitly have the word "target" in its rules text in order for hexproof to protect against it. Hexproof will protect against a Naturalize but not against a Shatterstorm.

702.11b “Hexproof” on a permanent means “This permanent can’t be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.”

Thank you very much. Do you refer to cards like Shatterstorm as stax hate? I left these out for more versatility in spells.

Out of your suggestions, the Kindred spells and Patriarch's Bidding are the most compelling. Actually I never thought of Bidding, even though I have one lying around here... I guess I'll be trying to squeeze it in. Sadly there's only so much space for noncreature cards, because I do really need those lands (I was constantly screwed on mana or color with less than forty) and as it's a tribal deck, with only 32 Legendary Wizards plus two Commanders, I'm already pushing the boundary of one third of the deck. That leaves 26 slots for spells, which for synergy I need for instants and sorceries - no more room for artifacts or Enchantments... or non-tribe creatures.

I skipped over Cavern of Souls, because I need a lot of colored mana for the spells.

PitaGryphon definitely not. I wish, but that would definitely not be enough to revive affinity, especially now that Mox Opal is banned. Unfortunately, the deck is outclassed by everything else happening. Adding one decent synergy would not be enough. Besides, the blowout potential of cards like Vandalblast or Shatterstorm destroying all permanents is a real risk for an affinity deck.

I think Disciple of the Vault might be the scarier card alongside artifact lands. But I didn't play standard in those days and don't know how strong the deck actually is.

why run Shatterstorm over Vandalblast??

EnbyGolem on Temur Artifact Destruction (please help)

Vandalblast seems like it could be right up your alley. There also a ton of 'destroy all artifacts' effects like Creeping Corrosion, Austere Command, and Shatterstorm but they would also hit your own board.
