Hypersayia9001 on Kykar kicks ass (Suggestions needed!) (Budget)

2 days ago

As a general addition, it always helps to keep your win condition in consideration when deciding on what cards you want to use in a deck.

Looking at it as is, I'd say you primary goal is to storm out your board with tokens form the likes of Young Pyromancer, Third Path Iconoclast and Kykar, Wind's Fury themselves, using the spirits Kykar gives you to help fuel a storm off.

This in mind, I think you'd actually want at least another full-board haste granter like Rising of the Day so you have an easier time swinging out when you go through a turn building a board state, and a few more 1 mana red cantrips like Expedite

Looks great! I've built a similar deck and it's very good, here's some recommended upgrades or possible swaps for fun:

1) Crash Through can be traded for all/a few Expedite to work better with with Adeliz, the Cinder Wind and Harmonic Prodigy, albeit a little slower.

2) Balmor, Battlemage Captain adds to the whole prowess mechanic and buffs your board like Adeliz; I would replace some Umara Mystic with a few of him.

3) Viashino Pyromancer is a cheaper verison of Ghitu Journeymage and is better unless you're doing multi-player.

4) Step Through is a 2 mana tutor that costs almost nothing! Sadly it doesn't trigger prowess etc.

5) Soul-Scar Mage is a bit pricier but would be a nice one drop.

6) Naru Meha, Master Wizard and Docent of Perfection  ^Flip are also good lords to consider.

7) Talrand, Sky Summoner is a good budget swap for Archmage Emeritus for people who don't own any!

Madcookie on Does having two Arcee triggers …

The way I see it is as is:

You target Arcee, Acrobatic Coupe  ^Flip with Infuriate, and trigger her ability which if this was Arena the trigger text would look like this "Put +1/+1 on this permanent. Convert this permanent". You respond to this by casting Expedite, which in turn creates essentially the same trigger. That trigger resolves first, you put a +1/+1 on Arcee, Acrobatic Coupe  ^Flip and convert her to Arcee, Sharpshooter  ^Flip, Expedite then resolves giving her haste and you draw a card, then the first trigger from Infuriate resolves, you put another +1/+1 counter on now technically Arcee, Sharpshooter  ^Flip and once again convert her to her vehicle side Arcee, Acrobatic Coupe  ^Flip and finally Infuriate resolves giving her +3/+2.

tl:dr She converts twice, gets two +1/+1 counters and finishes the interaction on the side she was initially.

Arcee, Acrobatic Coupe  ^Flip will flip if I target her with a Infuriate, but if I target her with Infuriate and respond at instant speed with Expedite does she convert twice, getting two counters?

I'm pretty sure she can, but I want to double check anyway, so I don't embarrass myself with a misplay.

Can I make Arcee do backflips for extra value?

I feel your pain... I've spent a lot of time brewing ninjutsu decks... I have never been able to find success with the deck but i can share some synergies that DID WORK WELL but not exactly anything that put the deck over-the-top....closing out games is just tough.

• Signal Pest/Ornithopter: These have always been my favorite ninjutsu enablers.... the pest is great for getting more damage through and the {0} 0/2 flyer should never be underestimated as a blocker or enabler... also being colorless really helps with mana management.

• Familiar's Ruse: It works really well as a one of... nowadays we have access to Counterspell but it can still recycle ETB effects/Ninjutsu.

• Higure, the Still Wind: Tutoring additional ninjas in hand is strong and has a mana dump ability to just get more damage through if needed.

• Thieving Sprite/Okiba-Gang Shinobi.... discard can be brutal with bounce effects and or The Rack/Shrieking Affliction.

• Master of Cruelties: This isn't exactly a "competitive" option but splashing {R} for access to this with ninjutsu is a very funny way to cheese a win. Haste enabler/cantrips like Spark Elemental/Expedite or burn/removal like Lightning Bolt fit the strategy well.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you can find the secret sauce to make ninjas work!

Crash Through is useful for actually connecting damage. I think this is played instead of Expedite.

lhetrick13 - Warlord's Fury is a great card, I've looked at it many times when building red. What's nice about Stensia Masquerade is that it's a permanent. Expedite and Crash Through are similar cards to Warlord's Fury.
