[[Eldrazi Conscription *A=17394*]] —March 6, 2019

Eldrazi Conscription > Octopus Umbra

Octopus Umbra is better in this deck at first glance because it seemingly protects its host. Yes, the host survives, but the point of this aura is that I can stick it on anything and turn it into a threat. If they remove the host, then the aura falls off in either case. Thanks to our enchantment recursion, that means that Conscription is better.

elfric Thank you much! I've probably gone through a solid 85% of all of the Majora's Mask fanart in existence to make this. It took months.

elfric I really appreciate the compliment. My only regret about this deck is the cost of potentially altering it in paper. Alas...

I do have a question for you though. Do you know of any art of the giant turtle from Majora's Mask? The ONLY art I can find is a black and white Manga page of the beast, but no good fanart anywhere.

Zeledon Thank you so much for the compliment! Even I come to this deck to fanboy over the art.

P.S. Tuvasa is in multiple categories because she fits into them both. She is a card draw engine and a win-condition.

This is my all time favorite deck tech ever. Each alter is So well picked. the deck functioning so powerfully while still sticking to a difficult theme. The work you put into with the description. I was loving playing the music as I read the deck functionality, between dark lines from the series. it felt Like reading some ancient text in a game. If you ever find an artist to commission this thing into paper I need to see it. BRAVO on all the heart you put into this masterpiece.

How long did it take you to find all the alternative art for the cards to put up there? Cause I'm impressed man!
