Tempest Djinn

Creature — Djinn

Tempest Djinn gets +1/+0 for each basic Island you control.

Some thoughts:

  • cards that only gain life are very weak/useless in magic. Lifegain is already one of the absolute weakest strategies, so including cards that only gain life us normally a bad idea. In that vein, i’d suggest ditching Diamond Mare (there’s a million better creatures to run instead) as well as Radiant Fountain (your deck requires a lot of blue-pips, and you’re better off running all-islands for Tempest Djinn).

  • Divination is going to trip you up because its sorcery speed means you won’t have the mana available to interact with your opponent during their turn. Think Twice would be better, or really just anything at instant-speed.

  • Mana Leak will serve you better those clumsy 3-mana counterspells

As your 5th Djinn, also gives protection against resolved and uncounterable graveyard hate like Bojuka Bog

As a huge fan of counterspell/flying decks, this is the start of something great! I would take out Nephalia Seakite and put in Tempest Djinn. I would also maybe include one more island, and put in some Soulblade Djinns. You could also include Second Guess if you want to. If you can afford it, you should really put in some Mystical Tutors, Brainstorms, or Counterspells.

Opt , Unsummon , Pteramander , Riddleform , Tempest Djinn , Brineborn Cutthroat , Brazen Borrower , Curious Obsession are tempo cards. I'd recommend go down to 18-20 lands xD

Yeah my creatures are mostly 1 power and I'm trying to cover that by going wide, but I do feel like I can use some slots for powerful creatures like Tempest Djinn or Nimble Obstructionist .

As for Favorable Winds , I do like the lord effect, but I feel like I would have too few flyers to use it (and my draw engines) effectively if I made a slot for it.

Also, I checked your deck and I see that you deal with the opposing creatures pretty well (with 10 sudo-removals in the mainboard). That's a part I really struggle with, so your list was also helpful in that way!

Thanks for the advice!

Ever think of adding Tempest Djinn and Favorable Winds? I have a similar list: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/mono-blue-counter-fliers/

mlequesne I'll add Tempest Djinn to the Maybeboard as well! Thank you!

Caran_Lyg I can see the sense in using Metallic Mimic instead. I think I'll switch it in and keep Adaptive Automaton on the Maybeboard.

I also like the functionality of Drowned Secrets, just unsure what to remove to add it in. Putting it on Maybeboard for now!

Thanks for suggestions!

Hi, me again, I know its an illusion deck but it's also a creature agro deck so Tempest Djinn may work even better than some illusions. At least it's worth testing.

See ya <3
