Mortlocke on The Song of Phyresis

jdog1109,

I think that having many ramp (or in this case rock) options in the deck is important, especially when they also fit one of the primary themes - poison counters. I've found that players are more willing to accept a poison counter or two if it could mean the disruption of my board, or the elimination of a big threat. Venerated Rotpriest would more likely than not serve as a mild inconvenience than a genuine deterrent. Adding the Zagoth Triome seems like a solid move, one i'm also considering myself. Strip Mine also seems to make sense as well, as I too have seen my fair share of Glacial ChasmGCs and Gaea's CradleGCs. You've given me a good bit to think about. Thanks for posting!

If you think added ramp is more beneficial and is something you're lacking, then 100% add Myr Convert. You have the most knowledge for how this deck flows. I have yet to even finish my own iteration of this. My reasoning for Venerated Rotpriest was to balance the colors more, and also to maybe defer the inevitable mass attack for just that one turn. Like you said it will make them think twice, and also basically gives every one of your creatures an "infect ward. I also took out 2 Swamp and added Zagoth Triome, because cool 3 color. Then Strip Mine because I've been seeing some pretty crazy lands I don't even want to hear about. Lmk what you think.

I can see that... to be honest I was pretty proud of my mana base (ive never really been good at making a mana base)... I will look into the Abzan Indatha Triome I think because my fetch lands are focused on grabbing Forests... I do already own Jetmir's Garden but I figured just getting closer to domain was correct with Zagoth Triome. I'll look into it thanks!

Some thoughts:

• You never really want to play lands that are very likely to enter the battlefield tapped - all of Vineglimmer Snarl, Choked Estuary, Necroblossom Snarl, and Zagoth Triome are all waay too slow to be useful. If you can't acquire fetchlands, then I'd suggest trying to acquire the fastlands - Blooming Marsh, Botanical Sanctum and Darkslick Shores.

• With no basics, you automatically lose to Blood Moon if an opponent plays it. You also have absolutely nothing to gain if the opponent casts Path to Exile or Assassin's Trophy on one of your permanents.

• For Collected Company to have any reasonable chance of hitting at least 2 creatures, your deck needs to have at least 27 creatures within it - without this number there's no point to playing the card. At the moment, with only 15 creatures that the card can use, the card just isn't good enough.

• Once you remove Collected Company, your deck has a lot more lands than it will need - and you could easily drop down to 22 (or possibly even 20).

• Urza's Saga lends itself really well into finding various 1-of toolbox cards that can save you in certain situations. Having a single copy of cards like Shadowspear, Pithing Needle, Relic of Progenitus etc can help you put-the-squeeze on many opponents.

• Lonis, Cryptozoologist really wants to live in a deck with lots of creatures. Just like Collected Company, your creature-count isn't high enough to justify this card.

• If you're playing Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar, you probably want to play the full playset, as well as the full 4-ofs each of Ovalchase Daredevil and The Underworld Cookbook.

Optimator on The start of my villain arc

With all the proliferate effects, Everflowing Chalice and Astral Cornucopia are worth considering over Thran Dynamo.

Also consider Nature's Lore, Three Visits, and Farseek to find Zagoth Triome or dual lands with land types (Overgrown Tomb, Woodland Chasm, Haunted Mire, Sunken Hollow, etc).

Almios on Blessed Perfection [1.3/MOM] - Suggestions Wanted!

My suggestions are based on not spending an arm and a leg to make improvements but maybe a finger or toe.

Lands

At a quick glance the first comment I have is lands seem a little low. I personally lean towards 36 if the deck isn't mono colored.

I know they are a bit slower but I would suggest using the tri colored lands as you are already using fetches. These lands add some real good color fixing early on and if they do become dead in hand cycle them away. Spara's Headquarters, Zagoth Triome, Indatha Triome and Raffine's Tower. I would replace your lands that reference the opponent count to come in untapped.

A land that goes on theme is Mirrex since it can get you mites as the game drags on. A second land I recommend since your land base is so varied is Field of the Dead, the zombies can add up and are nice little chumps if need be.

With the above changes I would say Crucible of Worlds but if you find sometimes you struggle to have something to play Conduit of Worlds is an extra mana but has the ability to give you the chance to cast something when you might not have anything else to work with.

Creatures

I would personally go full Praetor and run each variation if possible for the big flavor. The added benefit is each one of them is practically game warping, but be warned it can attract a lot of attention. The newest Vorinclex is probably the odd man out though since he only finds basic forests and Dominaria Sheoldred simply because of price. Added benefits of the new praetors is you can accelrate their saga. Realmbreaker, the Invasion Tree would then make a very nice inclusion if you go that way.

Cards to consider dumping for them from what I can at a first glance are Flesh-Eater Imp, Plague Stinger, Septic Rats and Slaughter Singer. I chose these because I don't feel once they hit the board they are something that people say "this needs to die".

Norn's Choirmaster is a recent card that gives your commander even more of a presence on the board.

Instants and Sorceries

On the sorcery since the only card that I don't like the look of is Nature's Lore, sure it is a cheap way to get you your colors especially if you have dual typed lands but if we are upping the land count I would switch it to a Skyshroud Claim since it can find you the same lands but untapped if the land can come in untapped for mana efficiency.

The biggest suggestion on the instant side would be to add Krosan Grip over Infectious Bite. Sure the bite is a form of removal and poison generation but I find having one of the best artifact/enchantment removals is the better option.

Artifacts and Enchantments

I understand the suggestion fromm KongMing as a strong one but I don't think it works the way he intended it Temporal Distortion does put counters on their lands but it removes ALL of them not just one so even if you proliferate it doesn't keep the lands tapped down longer unless you destroy your own enchantment.

Astral Cornucopia is nice with since you can keep building it but getting only one color out of it can be problematic at times. I suggest replacing with a Crystalline Crawler if you are find being a little off theme.

I would find a home for Chromatic Lantern, having one artifact to fix all of your mana problems is very nice especially when in more than two colors.

Food for Thought

Overall there are a couple of other cards I would recommend to consider but unsure of an exact home without taking apart every step. Grafted Exoskeleton, Tainted Strike, if you go the praetor route Geth's Summons is a great reanimation spell of you have the corrupted. Yawgmoth's Vile Offering is also a very strong spell for reanimation and removal. Inexorable Tide should probably have a home somewhere, it is a bit high CMC but it gets the job done. As Foretold also helps a lot of mana problems, do keep in mind it can also be used off turns if you have instant speed spells.

With Nightpack Ambusher out you can change some lands, because you need less {G}, I recommend the following:

• +1 Ice Tunnel, -1 Zagoth Triome
• +1 Castle Vantress, -1 Snow-Covered Island
• +1 Waterlogged Grove, -1 Nurturing Peatland

Also i'd cut 1 Brazen Borrower for some card advantage: Cling to Dust, JtMS, Memory Deluge
