Final changes / testing / W/L 2-0 —Sept. 18, 2016
Officially removed Caged Sun it didn't add much for me, after adding, removing, and then adding again I decided to keep Darksteel Forge, while Avacyn, Angel of Hope does basically the same thing having both helps if one gets exiled and the forge can be brought back from the GY or tutored. I finally folded and spent the $30 on Batterskull which was a great addition. While I have 26(27) Plains its been a problem finding double white sometimes, so I may remove Thran Dynamo for Chromatic Lantern. and Still waiting on Inventors' Fair to be released which is why I have an extra plains.
Testing -1 Thran Dynamo and +1 Chromatic Lantern
This win was against Slivers commanded by Sliver Overlord, King Macar, the Gold-Cursed and Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, I didn't think I was going to win this one I was a little drunk and not paying attention plus i had to mulligan to 4 and I couldn't find 2 white mana with 3 double white creatures in hand. So mono-black is ramping with artifacts, slivers is playing a lot of slivers and finally turn 5 I have enough to play my commander but that's it and turn 6 I finally get double white to play Transcendent Master Slivers takes a commanding lead by lifelinking up to 90. Alesha wipes all creatures I cast Stoneforge Mystic with Lightning Greaves and put in Batterskull, then Alesha sweeps all artifacts knocking mono black to only 3 lands and I think he scoops (at this point I'm playing GTA on xbone with my friends.) I put Deathrender in on mystic and someone kills it and I get Stonehewer Giant and search for Shield of Kaldra, I get Mask of Avacyn on him too (I don't have the match recorded at this point so I'm just going off memory.) Next turn I put on Loxodon Warhammer and swing for some lifelink. end of his turn I search for Sword of Kaldra. Next turn I search for Helm of Kaldra and put the mask and warhammer on Kaldra and I take out Alesha, Who Smiles at Death. Finally it's just me and slivers he has about 7 or 8 unblockable still at like 70 life and I have Stonehewer, a token, Heliod, and Kaldra at like 14/11. So I play Wrath of God destroying his board and keeping Kaldra and I also play Spear of Heliod. He replays and swing with his haste commander and I destroy it with Spear of Heliod he sees there's no coming back and quits as well.
So I was thinking about removing Lightning Greaves because equipments target and if something has lightning greaves on I can't add any more equipments. But the haste for 0 is extremely helpful so I think I'm going to keep it for now. Having 2 creatures is no problem because I can just stick it on one and load the other with equipments and move it back, but I rarely have more than one unless I'm already winning pretty hard.
The second win was interesting, it was mono-green Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury, Golgari Thelon of Havenwood, and mono-black Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni
