Ashling's Spirit Bomb

Commander / EDH Mono-Red Voltron

DonofJor


After playing EDH for a while I kept growing tired of using up all my board wipes and then still needing another like 3 more as the game went on. That's where Ashling comes in. The first half of her ability on her own is great, and the fact that she comes in cheap is awesome too, just an endless mana sink, but the second half, her Spirit Bomb is where things get awesome. The deck as it is right now is to attempt to get Magebane Armor and Scythe of the Wretched onto her and keep pumping her then explode her to take control of everyone's creatures while Ashling herself is safe and sound.

If that doesn't work, then picking another of the couple of big bombs in the deck and throwing tons and tons of equipment onto them too is the backup plan. It's Mono-Red I'm not really doing anything revolutionary here. The most help she needs is ways to somehow tutor or sneak her artifacts out more consistently, and more stuff to equip to her as well. I made her on a modest budget, so I won't be getting Sword of War and Peace or any of the other few of those for her anytime soon, but little fun ones to add to her board wipe madness would be great too.

Soul-Scar Mage >>>> Illusionist's Bracers Mage boy was kinda under-performing and I honestly haven't used him for the one thing I put him in for; God hate. Instead I grabbed the Bracers since not only can Ashling herself use it, a few other creatures can take advantage of it as well.

Hazoret's Undying Fury >>>>>> Blasphemous Act This plus Repercussion is just nutty. I've wanted it for a while too. I don't know if I actually want to put the Fury back in for something else though, because I've gotten a lot of mileage out of it especially to get a few more equipments out for Ashling.

Hammer of Purphoros >>>>>>>> Sulfuric Vortex Use the vortex to hopefully chip down opponents a little more at a time like a lot of my other low cost creatures and enchantments. Again like the Fury, I'm not sure if I'll want to throw the Hammer back in for sometime else because it still is very useful for 3 and doesn't get targeted much.
