Some key updates

Nimbleturtle, 8 years ago

Hey y'all. There are some key things I wanted to update with the deck: 1) Liliana of the Veil gives the deck so much versatility: removal or hand pressure. My favorite play is to dump extra Bitterblossoms, land or Lingering Souls. This is the best card to have against the unfavorable matches and isn't too shabby in the favorable ones either! I used to run 2 Gideon and 2 Sorin. The problem with running 4 planeswalker was that you'd see multiples in your opening hand. This ruins your early game hands. I wanted more anthem effects but that came at a cost. Even cards like Intangible Virtues are not the best cards to open with. With Liliana of the Veil, you can afford to run more because the difference between 3-mana and 4-mana is substantial. In the end, I can only support 3 four-mana planeswalker: 2 Sorin and 1 Gideon. 2) Ever since the new fastlands were printed, I decided to cut down each fetchland. I very much like this result. Although the conventional wisdom is to run as many fetches possible, I just find this unnecessary. Even when I fetched a basic, I felt like I was losing way too much life throughout the course of the game. Although I love the Shambling Vents, I wanted to play my threats as quickly as possible in this new build. I cut it down to 3. 3) Since I'm playing 3 Fetid Heaths, I figured Spectral Procession is worth trying out over Midnight Haunting.

Trying out Kambal, Consul of Allocation

MrBiggieD, 8 years ago

Saw this guy in the spoilers for Kaladesh and immediately wanted to try him out in the deck. Can't wait to get my hands on some to do some testing! At the very least, he'll be great sideboard material.

A Few More Changes

PurePazaak, 8 years ago

-1 Ichorclaw Myr

-1 Forgotten Ancient

-1 Viridian Corrupter

-1 Sagu Mauler

+1 Sylvan Offering

+1 Phyrexian Swarmlord

+1 Reclamation Sage

+1 Undergrowth Champion

I feel like Swarmlord can do a lot for me, and i like the Idea of Offering. Very Commander-esque (also very good for me!). Sage is much more flexible than Corrupter, as was previously mentioned in the comments. Infect is great, but enchantments do exist!

More chaos wanted

Nixilis, 8 years ago

It's been a while since I've actually been on for some dedicated Magic, so let me kow if there are any awesome chaotic cards I should consider putting into this!

Deck update and direction

-1 Arcane Lighthouse, -1 Crawlspace

+1 Island, +1 Cackling Counterpart

Both Arcane Lighthouse and Crawlspace went over $2 so I subbed them out with an Island and Cackling Counterpart for the time being. I wanted to put in Dreamstone Hedron instead but don't have a copy lying around.

Braids has become my favorite low-power deck along with Jolrael. These are by far my two most fun decks and people generally seem to have fun playing against them. Even though they both don't win that regularly, these are my "fun" decks and I intend to keep them that way.

After losing a lot of games in a row I was considering adding in the counterspell package and cutting out a few cards for them, but honestly the main reasons why I want counterspells in the deck is just to keep Braids alive longer. So I think going forward with this deck I'm going to look into more protection for Braids without being too "prison-y".

Playtest update

dyreth, 8 years ago

swapped Dream Leash, Flux, Lat-Nam's Legacy, Leviathan, Magus of the Jar, Nix, Noble Benefactor, Parallel Thoughts, Rhystic Deluge, Undertow

for Eater of Days, Kederekt Leviathan, Grozoth, Quest for Ula's Temple, Pearl Lake Ancient, Breaching Leviathan, Isleback Spawn, Denizen of the Deep, Deep-Sea Kraken, Tromokratis

so xmage users could use the list and to enable the "big blue" archetype more

Kaladesh is nuts so far

Bababad, 8 years ago

Nissa, Vital Force in over Nissa, Vastwood Seer  ^Flip because that ult is so darn strong and easy to get off in commander, provides me with game winning draw, synergistic permanent return from the grave, or fat beats.

Torrential Gearhulk being tested over Greenwarden of Murasa because it casts my instants for free. I dream of flashing in a beater and recasting Arachnogenesis or Cyclonic RiftGC out of nowhere. Easy to copy with various effects, abusable etb, on a big booty.

Rashmi, Eternities Crafter over Evolutionary Leap. EL was back from a version of this deck that didn't draw as well as the current version. rashmi is perfect for a permission deck like this. Synergizes with Courser of Kruphix and Oracle of Mul Daya alongside Sylvan Library to stack the top of my deck.

Considering Azusa, Lost but Seeking and Verdurous Gearhulk as well

-- Ashen Rider -- Chromatic Lantern -- Debtors' Knell -- Dread Return -- Emeria, the Sky Ruin -- End Hostilities -- Luminarch Ascension -- Mortuary Mire -- Smothering Abomination -- Soul of Innistrad -- Vault of the Archangel -- Yosei, the Morning Star ++ Ashnod's Altar ++ Blood Artist ++ Council's Judgement ++ Fiend Hunter ++ Ghost Quarter ++ Gray Merchant of Asphodel ++ Nim Deathmantle ++ Plains ++ Swamp ++ Triskelion ++ Unburial Rites ++ Viscera Seer NOOOO!!! Soul of Innistrad and Debtors' Knell, not again!!! I'm moving the deck to include more ways of winning than just a straight grind (even though my friends won't like it). I already had Dark Mike, so adding Triskelion was natural. I added in Ashnod's Altar and Nim Deathmantle for some infinite loops, as well as Viscera Seer for an additional sac outlet. To go along with Reveillark and Karmic Guide, which have been in the deck since the beginning, I have added and actual way to win in the form of Blood Artist and Grey Merchant. Fiend Hunter was also added to exile all creatures at instant speed. I added some more basic lands and a Ghost Quarter. The biggest cuts from the deck were just that: BIG. Ashen Rider, Soul of Innistrad, Yosei, and Debtors' Knell all cost upwards of 6. Dread Return, while after a fashion more powerful than Unburial Rites, requires me to have 3 creatures to sacrifice in order to flash it back. End Hostilities is the weakest of the wrath effects.

#1!!!!!!!!

Kameronmcl, 8 years ago

I'd like to thank each and every one of you out there who helped support my deck! As of today, I reached rank #1!!! Thank you all so much!

-the butt way for junk-

Jesseryu, 8 years ago

After extensive play testing, I decided to make the deck be more balanced.

but still I'm not going to build a normal junk deck such with 4x Tarmogoyf, 4x Liliana of the Veil and 4x Abrupt Decay.

And also I want to keep my main idea which are those high toughness creatures
with 2 of my favorite MTG cards Doran, the Siege Tower & Assault Formation

Looking forward and waiting for any suggestions :D
