Alex's Bizarre Tokens —Jan. 28, 2020

Welp, new update is out and the primer is in the works too. A lot of new foils, Theros Beyond Death Cards and a few more Shocks added to the mana base.

Two new cards form C19 come to mind: Ghired, Conclave Exile makes obscure 4/4 Rhino tokens. Idol of Oblivion creates a 10/10 Eldrazi token. Get one of those on the field, then use Brudiclad to make an army of them, and smile manically.

TypicalTimmy: Thank you! I have a ton of fun playing it! I hope your experience is as positive as mine.

bushido_man96: Thanks for the suggestions! I don't think I'm going to play either because the tokens they make aren't weird enough. I mean rhinos and eldrazi? seen it. Pentavite token? Now that's obscure.

Cool theme, giving yourself extra work to make an efficient deck. :)

You have obviously done your homework. I notice you don't have Wall of Kelp in there, is Plant Wall not exotic enough, or is the card just not good enough to include? Haunted Angel creates a 3/3 black Angel upon death, which is somewhat uncommon. Since you are running Kari Zev for Ragavan, maybe you would be interested in Jiang Yanggu and Mowu?

Can your opponents get weird tokens as well? Rapid Hybridization gives them a Frog Lizard.

The upcoming Nadir Kraken will have Tentacles.

Hope this inspires you!

There are a lot of great lands that make tokens. You already have several, and most token producing lands are colorless, so I'll just suggest some good ones. Khalni Garden makes a token and taps for a color. Also, Mirrorpool . That will make the most unique tokens possible.

Saw your deck in the advertise forum, had to give it a look. Love it +1!

I'm hoping you'll try out this bad boy for the Tentacle Token xD

Heliogabale: Thanks for the comment! Wall of Kelp was in the wheelhouse but I decided to initially exclude it because of price concerns. Now that the deck has shifted away from a tiny budget, I've considered adding it. The tokens definitely fit the theme, but I don't feel that the price is worth what I'm getting, especially since the deck is shifting to better and better cards. Haunted Angel is super cool! I'll definitely add it to the roster of cards I want to try, if only there were more space am I right? Looks at land count menacingly Jiang Yanggu is an amazing suggestion, when I first saw your comment I looked inside myself and cursed my soul for I had not thought of him. Another on the roster! Rapid Hybridization is a good idea, but I don't want my opponents to get the weird tokens, I want them all to myself. Finally, since the day it was released, I've had Nadir Kraken in my Card Kingdom cart, and I can't wait for its release!!!

Lanzo493: Both lands would be pretty solid, but I think Khalni Garden is too common because who hasn't faced Avenger of Zendikar before right? Mirrorpool is a super interesting card and I have wanted to find a home for it for a while, but I think it's more suited to a Brudiclad deck, which I'm really trying to stop this from becoming. However, your suggestions did bring to mind Kher Keep , which makes the weirdest little kobold tokens, so I'll definitely be adding that to the roster.

Suns_Champion: Thanks for the suggestion! He's been in my Card Kingdom shopping cart since he was spoiled, just waiting until the whole set is spoiled to order him!

I actually badly misread Haunted Angel, and it is such a very bad card you did the same. Take a second look and take it off the list! lol

Heliogabale: Oh...oh my god, I've made a fool of myself once more, I shall immediately remove this pestilence from our collective lives.

I assume not using Dark Depths is a conscious choice?

Heliogabale: Yeah, essentially because it's $25 right now, I'll probably buy it with the rest of the cards from Theros.
