Upgrades (from Budget)
-
Enlightened Tutor (for Drift of Phantasms)
Slots to Consider
-
Kasmina, Enigmatic Mentor (Boardprotection, plus lategame Tokendrop)
-
Hall of Triumph (Tokens are either White or Colorless)
Performance Control
-
Assemble the Legion (might be too slow, but an auto creature drop if I get locked out of Swarming with Propaganda or Ghostly Prison
-
Coat of Arms / Hall of Triumph / Dragon Tempest / Favorable Winds / Rally the Ranks are all cheap Lord effects, but focus on one aspect (tribal, flying, color...), they are cut in favor of making more tokens in general and for buffsthat effect the entire board instead, e.g. Saheeli and Monk for Tokens or Trenches and Commander Insignia for stable buffs

Massive rework
NV_1980, 6 days ago
Basically revisited this entire deck after having it sit on the shelf for three years. It now features more lifegain, more ways to benefit off of lifegain, more combos and a bit less inhibition.

March Update Log
JBTomero, 1 week ago
Typed up a new primer explaining how I pilot this deck:
- Opening Turns
- Mid Game
- Late Game
- Key Cards And How To Play Them
I hope people find it handy or at least interesting!
- Added Divine Visitation, cutting Molten Echoes. Took me this long to realize that this card is functionally a "sac outlet" for Hazezon since the tokens generated are now angels instead of sand warriors, so they are completely safe if Hazezon sticks around and is removed later. I won't have the option to cast + sac + re-cast in the same turn, but if I'm set up to do that odds are I have another sac outlet already. Molten Echoes is an absolutely fantastic card... for Hazezon. But this deck is no longer as focused on him and he's more of the battering ram that delivers the overwhelming blow at the very end. Before that point the focus is Field of the Dead, and Molten Echoes does absolutely nothing with it. With this switch, Hazezon still benefits (+3/+3 is no exponential pump, but it's something) and FotD gets a whole lot nastier. Furthermore: After playtesting a bit, I realize with Divine Visitation that casting Hazezon turn after turn after turn ADDS to the tokens instead of replacing them. That's huge. No longer need to juggle summoning sickness to trade 7 tokens for 14 etc.

I Finally Own This Deck in Paper! (Again)
Herb48, 1 week ago
After a lot of research, playtesting, and WAYYYYYYYYYYYY too much money spent, I have upgraded this deck beyond my wildest imagination. It is on the border of cEDH but sits comfortably in bracket 4. I am happy to say my pet deck is now by far the most powerful deck I own :)
Initial Update
dansface, 1 week ago
===spoiler: Initial Update
Following the TCGPlayer Upgrade Guide, I've swapped out some of the higher mana and less synergistic cards for those specifically work with Terra, Herald of Hope
’s reanimation ability.
The update prioritizes creatures with power 3 or less to pack in more threats like Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER and Lightning, Army of One
Mana & Card Draw
- Talisman of Conviction -> The Wind Crystal
- Mana Efficiency: Replaces a simple rock with a cost-reducer for White spells that also doubles life gain and provides a Flying/Lifelink combat finisher.
- Talisman of Indulgence -> The Darkness Crystal
- Mana Efficiency + Recursion: Swaps a rock for a Black spell cost-reducer that also exiles opponents' creatures and lets you reanimate them for your own use.
- Strago and Relm -> Dark Confidant
- Consistent Draw: Strago is high-variance; Dark Confidant (2 power) provides a guaranteed extra card every upkeep for a small life cost.
- Ruin Grinder -> Joshua, Phoenix's Dominant // Phoenix, Warden of Fire
- Hand Refinement: Swaps a 7-mana wheel for a 3-power legend that loots on entry and transforms into a Saga to bring back 6 mana worth of creatures.
Recursion & Board Control
- Sepulchral Primordial -> Squall, SeeD Mercenary
- Reliable Recursion: Replaces a 7-mana one-shot effect with a 4-mana 3-power threat that reanimates small permanents every time he connects.
- Edgar, Master Machinist -> Gaius van Baelsar
- Board Control: Gaius (3 power) acts as flexible removal on a stick, forcing sacrifices of tokens or enchantments upon entering the battlefield.
- Kefka, Dancing Mad -> Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel
- Sacrifice Engine: Sephiroth (3 power) provides a controlled way to sacrifice creatures for cards and serves as a "drain" engine that can end games.
Combat & Scaling Threats
- Sabin, Master Monk -> Lightning, Army of One
- Aggressive Value: Lightning fits the "Power 3 or less" requirement for Terra while providing First Strike/Lifelink and doubling damage to an opponent.
- Umaro, Raging Yeti -> Cecil, Dark Knight // Cecil, Redeemed Paladin
- Utility Threat: Swaps a "dumb" beater for a 2-power utility piece that facilitates life-loss and can transform into an Indestructible-granting Paladin.
- Archfiend of Depravity -> Rosa, Resolute White Mage
- Survival + Buffs: Swaps a high-power control piece for a 3-power legend that distributes +1/+1 counters and Lifelink every combat step.
- Angel of the Ruins -> Aerith Gainsborough
- Legendary Support: Aerith (2 power) scales with your life gain and buffs all other legendary creatures with counters upon her death.
- The Warring Triad -> Vincent Valentine
// Galian Beast
- Scaling Threat: Vincent (2 power) grows when enemies die and transforms into a massive beast that recurs itself when it falls.

DreadKhan, 1 week ago
I mean who DOESN'T want to face the strange, right? Anyways, I switched out Thieves' Auction (ignore me sobbing), There and Back Again (more sobbing), and Tainted Peak for Unholy Annex (this also makes a 6/6 flyer, but it can gain life and cards, so that's a better effect most of the time), Plargg and Nassari (this card is BONKERS, and it's super political), and Lazotep Quarry (in case I need a Mummy).
Edit: Would Diaochan, Artful Beauty
make sense in here? Apparently she could sing and dance exceptionally well, so that seems relevant, and she can also blow stuff up AND play politics, all of which also seems relevant.
