Gleeock on Which Mass Destruction Spell(s) Should …

1 year ago

I think more mass-dmg based effects would take the most advantage of the commander.. They can be surprisingly effective when opponents aren't ready for them. I have been loving Structural Assault. My Atla deck likes to put out damage multipliers and will surprise with "boardwipes" & damage parties like Chandra, Awakened Inferno

I love the deck that you're building here. I think that even though Structural Assault won't be completely one-sided, it's still good in the deck, as your surviving apes will get huge buffs on an empty board.

Untappers to get more mana seem like they could be used in the deck. For instance, Instill Energy and Nature's Chosen could untap your commander.

I will admit that I looked through Master Oogway's Guide to a long life to find some of these untappers. Nice deck, by the way.

I hope that you find these suggestions helpful!

Gleeock: Now that I think about it a little more, I think Structural Assault doesn't work here how you think it does.

It will destroy all artifacts and also deal the damage during its resolution. This leads to many delayed Kibo triggers which will be put onto the stack after the resolution of Assault. But before those enter the stack, state-based effects will be checked and most of my creatures will have lethal damage marked on them. As a result, most of them will die before Kibo gets a chance to put his counters on them.

Did I miss something?

I keep saying Structural Assault is bonkers with this guy. Wipe out artifacts, probably one-sided boardwipe while all your apes get pumped to offset the dmg.

Gleeock I agree, I think Structural Assault wouldn't be playable otherwise (If It only counted what the spell destroyed and dealt damage according to that).

Have you built a Kibo, Uktabi Prince deck?

Yeah, between all the treasures out there & Brother's war, generic artifact decks have been so hard to catch up with. I run Structural Assault in decks with less synnergy & it has been pretty effective at clearing the field, much less without me giving a free 4 dmg (4 players with bananas). It is nice that if someone sacs the (bananas/treasures) in response, the spell doesn't care, only cares about the amount of artifacts going to the bin this turn. It is a nice wiping option for token swarms/chumps while sparing all your midrange dudes

Hi Gleeock

Such a great song :p I was going to say that Structural Assault was a little unreliable as a board wipe, but you make a great point, my apes will get pumped to offset the damage and it becomes a one-side board wipe. I will test it out. Thanks a lot.

I'm scared that Primal Vigor could easily get out of hand ... That's why I'm running Doubling Season and Parallel Lives instead.

I played Return of the Wildspeaker in the deck but then I switched it out for Inspired Tinkering or Escape to the Wilds I don't remember.

I wanna talk like you, walk like you too-oo-oo

You should use the power of man's red flower to make a one-sided boardwipe: Structural Assault. Because for all that dmg creatures are taking, your apes will get pumped to offset.

You could get real reckless with it: Primal Vigor
