Abusing Shadowborn Apostle

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on May 23, 2018, 7:32 p.m. by DrukenReaps

So I've been working on a Shadowborn Apostle deck here: Karona's Shadowy Apostasy and I'm trying to find every way to abuse them that I possibly can. I'm more interested in ways outside of black and white because most of what I can find is headed by Athreos, God of Passage.

Thanks for any advice.

IDK how wonky you wanna get, but you could wonk out with Arcane Adaptation.

Ooops. Just realized you had a decklist up, and you already run that. Merp.

I run them in Abzan (Tymna the Weaver and Sidar Kondo of Jamuraa). It's absolutely amazing. With Tymna, I start drawing cards on turn 3, and if they have blockers, I can bring out Sidar Kondo.

The whole deck is drawing cards, saccing Apostles to different stuff and generating tokens in the process, finished off by a few Demons or Coat of Arms/Mirror Entity.

My favourite cards in that deck are Remembrance, Bloodbond March and Nantuko Shrine. They don't make sense in most other decks and they do a shit ton of work, here.

And now I'm gonna shamelessly plug my deck...
