Thank you for checking out my Isshin deck, I appreciate it. In taking a look at yours, I have a few ideas for some potential additions:

• Cathedral of War could be a decent utility land to add, especially to tie in with your other Exalted effects.

• Vault of the Archangel can be used offensively or defensively as needed.

• Reconnaissance and Dolmen Gate are both helpful protection effects, and I think would be that much more important in an Exalted/single attacker leaning strat. In case you aren't familiar with the timing on Reconnaissance, this EDHREC article can help explain it a bit better. Basically, your creatures are considered attackers until the end of combat, so you can utilize Reconnaissance to untap and save your attackers at any point during combat, even after they've dealt combat damage.

• Clever Concealment could be a banger for board protection since most of your creatures will stay untapped.

• Although they aren't Samurai, Tiamat's Fanatics and/or Warchief Giant could fit in with your creatures that also care about solo attacking Warriors. These would still work with Exalted since the Myriad tokens are never declared as attackers.

• Along kind of similar lines, Inquisitorial Rosette can be helpful to get some additional token attackers, and an equipment that provides an evasion anthem.

Hope these suggestions are helpful. Hopefully we won't have to wait for another return to Kamigawa to get more Samurai

Divine Visitation's replacement effect only changes the characteristics of the tokens being created, not any other parts of the effect creating the tokens. In your Martial Coup example, the tokens won't be destroyed. In your Tiamat's Fanatics example, they will be tapped and attacking and will be exiled at the end of combat.

When I have Divine Visitation in play, how does it interact with the "if X is 5 or more destroy all other creatures" text of Martial Coup? Would Martial Coup recognize the 4/4 angels created by Divine Visitation as replacements and spare them or would I basically be wasting time casting X for 5 with Divine Visitation in play?

Similarly with a card like Tiamat's Fanatics, would the angels be tapped and attacking when they're created? Would they be exiled at the end of combat?

Thanks for your help!

It's option B.

The basic explanation of how copy effects work is that they only copy what's written on the original. They don't take into account any other effect that would have changed any of those characteristics unless those changes were caused by another copy effect (for example, if you copy a Clone that copied a Bear Cub, you get another Bear Cub instead of another Clone).

In this example, that means Myriad creates 4/3 copies of Tiamat's Fanatics and their power gets doubled to 8.

Scenario: Thrakkus the Butcher and Tiamat's Fanatics are in play. I cast You Look Upon the Tarrasque targeting my Fanatics. I choose the second mode to give it +5+5 and Indestructible until end of turn. It is now a 9/8.

When I move to combat I declare Fanatics (9/8) and Thrakkus as attackers. Myriad and Thrakkus trigger. I stack them so that Myriad resolves first. I create two token copies of Fanatics (tapped and attacking my opponents). Then the Thrakkus ability resolves and doubles the power of each dragon I control.

Question: What is the power and toughness of each Tiamat's Fanatics in play (there are 3 of them)?

A) All of them are 18/8. B) The original Fanatic is 18/8 the copies are 8/3. C) Other (please explain).

Thanks
