clayperce on Elektra: Assassin (Massacre Girl Ultra-Budget)

2 weeks ago

seshiro_of_the_orochi -
Thanks much for the comments and suggestions. Some thoughts ...

• Tarrian's Soulcleaver and Blade of the Bloodchief are great on other creatures (they basically turn anyone into a Venomcrawler). But they don't do anything for Massacre Girl at all.
  
• Thinking about Fake Your Own Death: Yeah, like I say in the description, I've got "a few blink effects for Elektra, for when the party gets out of hand again". But I probably need to either add more or delete the package entirely. With my current 5x cards (Synod Sanctum, Voyager Staff, Erratic Portal, Conjurer's Closet, and Demonic Gifts), I only have a 54% chance of having one by Turn 7, and that's not as consistent as I'd like. But to justify more, I'd really need to swap a bunch of creatures out for ones with ETB effects (currently I only have 7 creatures worth blinking). Hmmm ...
• You might not have noticed it in the deck description, but "I'm already bringing plenty of salt to the table with a repeatable board-wipe in the Command Zone; I don't want to bring much more. As an example, I'm avoiding Blood Artist effects." So thanks, but Bastion of Remembrance is right out.
• Similarly, you might not have noticed that I said "I mostly play in an ultra-budget (USD $25) Bracket 2 pod. So ... any card above USD $3 has to be better for the deck than Skullclamp". Grave Betrayal is good, but it's no Skullclamp. And Revel in Riches is great, but ridiculously overpriced for this deck.

Thanks again; cheers!

Oh fun, I'm actually in a relatively similar situation, as I'm working on a Renari/Cultist deck, myself! While I run Lightning Greaves, I mainly run counter magic and removal. We have different themes, though, as you're going for blink.

Instant speed blink is definitely your best bet, as they go splendidly with your theme. While the cards you've listed there are definitely quite strong, I personally would shy away from the creatures and enchantments, as being able to cast just about anything at instant speed is definitely a strength which should be played into. Taking into account artifacts which blink you like Voyager Staff might be a good option? I also think phasing is a bit antithetical to your overall game plan, as they don't enable ETB duplication and there's just way more instant-speed blink enablers out there that are worth running over the phasing cards. That's my 2 cents, anyway.

i don't quite understand what you're trying to achieve here. it's like a race-horse that's fast in every direction but straight. my first attempt in using this, by turn 6 i was able to force out the Colossus. the second and third attempt, a sitting duck

i would start with switching the lands for artifact land. Darksteel Citadel was the sixth artifact land made, and was originally the only modern-legal for some time; to my understanding, they just made a bunch more that are colored and indestructible. the Forgemaster is good, but paints a glaring target on itself for the potential of a combo, you need something to distract or protect. Frogmite can come in quickly, Welding Jar to restore, or gear like Lightning Greaves or Swiftfoot Boots to protect it. i would also switch out the Manalith for the Darksteel Ingot; same cost, but cant be destroyed. the Pyramid becomes an easy target for at least 4 colors for removal and can stunt your resource development; simply trade that out for cheat creatures (such as Myr Enforcer) or more protection (Voyager Staff could be fun here). finally, Everflowing Chalice is only good if you have the resources to build it up AND the infrastructure to keep it for more than a turn, which you do not. that card could be better served with another creature that can do lots of damage, be quite the deterrent, and demands an answer - Lodestone Myr. it's not a perfect creature, of course, but the likelihood of a natural or cheat play of Colossus in modern against anything greater than a "kitchen table" deck is not good

hope this helps

Sundial of the Infinite could be used to keep the pig's friends in play. Activate it when the delayed return to hand trigger goes on the stack, fizzling the trigger and keeping the creature on the field.

You might like these too: Conjurer's Closet (works similar to sundial), Voyager Staff, Seize the Day, Fiendish Duo, It That Betrays, Minion Reflector, War Elemental, Treasonous Ogre, Helm of the Host, Knollspine Dragon, Ogre Battledriver, Dockside Extortionist, Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, Rapacious One, Chancellor of the Forge

The first thing I noticed were that you don't have much protection for Jhoira, which means less interaction. Here are some cards that can bounce/flicker her to save her: Seal of Removal, Voyager Staff, Aether Spellbomb, Salvager of Ruin, Phantom Wings, Disappear. These are good because they stay on the field, and cost little or no mana to activate, so they can be a deterrent for others to attack.
