Ixalan Update —Jan. 6, 2018

As Enchantments become more a of nuisance in my playgroup, Back to nature should help me deal with the likes of Greater Auramancy or Sphere of Safety.

Deathbringer Regent fieldwipes while catching counters.

Rivals of Ixalan comes with two new toys: Hadana's Climb and Journey to Eternity. And man their not only good but also so easy to flip.

Predator Ooze has been catching my eye for a long time, but the GGG cost seemed pretty unappealing. However lets give it a try.

  • +1x Back to Nature
  • +1x Deathbringer Regent
  • +1x Hadana’s Climb
  • +1x Journey to Eternity
  • +1x Predator ooze
  • +1x woodland wanderer
  • -1x Essence Harvest
  • -1x Walking Ballista
  • -1x Scavenging Ooze
  • -1x Burgeoning
  • -1x scute mob
  • -1x profaner of the dead

Herald of Secret Streams seems super powerful here.

Given the color similarity, check out my deck: Guys... We're Gonna Need More Dice for more neat ideas. Or my reyhan deck: Ravos + Reyhan = Countery Fun.

@seshiro_of_the_orochi he certainly is, but for what should i make place for? The issue with the Herald is that he is a strong combo piece but just a weak 4 mana creature himself. In comparison Bramblewood Paragon does a better job here as it's cost is halve to his while he also grants Reyhan a counter. And while unblockable is arguably better than trample, trample is more of a political option as it grants opponents the choice to sacrifice their own creatures to the attacking creature.

@ZendikariWol give me some thoughts to your deck ideas. What things do you do different what I should try to implement myself? The thing about Ravos is that he wants to swarm with a recursion gimmick while Atraxa wants all the different type of counters she can get (win by planewalker effects, infect and make abuse of Astral Cornucopia type of cards most of the time). So while Cathars' Crusade applies as a great card for all three of these decks and Reyhan with Ravos frustratingly get excluded to Master Biomancer or Prime Speaker Zegana I don't see much i could try myself.

AkaAkuma could you be more specific as to what you're asking of me?

First of all, Forgotten Ancient is a beast. I would like to know a little bit more about your meta before I comment. What are your opponents running?
