Akroma's Memorial

Legendary Artifact

Creatures you control have flying, first strike, vigilance, trample, haste, protection from black, and protection from red. ((Remember the acronym debt.) Creatures you control can't be damaged, enchanted, equipped, blocked or targeted by anything black or red. Anything black or red attached to your creatures immediately falls off.)

DemonDragonJ on Commander Masters Previews and Speculation

Righteous Aura has not been reprinted in a long time, so I definitely would like to see it reprinted, in this set.

Akroma's Memorial, Door to Nothingness, and The Immortal Sun could all use reprints, to keep them available an inexpensive.

DemonDragonJ on Commander Masters Previews and Speculation

WotC has officially announced that there shall be a Commander Masters set, so let us begin speculating about it!

Thus far, only three cards have been revealed, but they are all excellent, so I am hoping that the remainder of the set shall be comparable.

If The Ur-Dragon is being reprinted (and it needs to be), I also would like to see Edgar Markov reprinted, because he also is expensive, as well as Oloro, Ageless Ascetic, mainly because he has never been reprinted (except as a judge promo), so I would like to see him in the new card frame.

Given that Rhystic Study, Mystic Remora, and Smothering Tithe were all reprinted, recently, I would like to see Esper Sentinel reprinted, mainly to keep its price low and availability high.

I have said this, before, but I shall again pray for reprints of Book of Rass and Claws of Gix, mainly to see them in the new frame.

Sol Ring and Command Tower are almost certain to be in this set, but I also would like to see Reflecting Pool and Chromatic Lantern, to keep their prices low.

Akroma's Memorial, Mirari's Wake, and Privileged Position would all be great, as well.

What does everyone else say about this? What card would you like to see reprinted in Commander Masters?

Icaruskid on Azusa, Lost but Seeking Cthulu [Primer]

Thank you Profet93!

Fierce Empath replaces Time of Need. I like the early blocker and the classic synergy with Woodland Bellower.

Seek the Horizon replaces Kodama's Reach. Three lands per card is better than two.

Gaea's Cradle and Itlimoc, Cradle of the Sun are pretty good here. But this deck goes tall with a few creatures rather than wide as you said about Eldrazi Monument. Even though I have the card and there is no budget technically, I can play this deck in more pods when not running the more competitive card that is not at its best here anyway. Leaving it out for now but mostly because I want to play this deck as often as I can.

I'm keeping Shared Summons in for now as well because I like the cast triggers of Kozilek and Ulamog which are my most tutored Eldrazi. I'll try to find a spot for Tooth and Nail too as it helps with velocity even if I don't get the cast trigger.

Harrow and Springbloom Druid effectively give Azusa extra lands, just from the graveyard. They help with consistency when I don't hit Lotus Vale, Lotus Field, or the fetch lands and help justify Ramunap Excavator, Crucible of Worlds, and Perennial Behemoth. Speaking of, Perennial Behemoth's unearth ability is handy when Eldrazi Monument is out and even when I don't have it on the battlefield there are usually some other fodder like Tireless Tracker, Springbloom Druid, or Ramunap Excavator to buy three or more turns of indestructible flying Eldrazi which make the monument more than just a flavor win. If I cut the monument I would still need some protection from boardwipes in that spot. This is why Planar Bridge is so useful as I can grab Eldrazi Monument or Akroma's Memorial to get damage through. And using Planar Bridge to get Mana Reflection is also a near game winning play too. These cards are imperfect but they are hard to replace with single cards. Like Heroic Intervention or Asceticism or even Wrap in Vigor don't give multiple turns of indestructibility and evasion (flying).

I hear you on Desolation Twin. It does do work after a boardwipe though and I don't want to diminish organic threat density too much. Maybe this is where Tooth and Nail belongs. I'll try it out.

I really appreciate your ideas!!

This is dope! Have you considered Pestilence Rats as another pack rat? Also, Coat of Arms, Vanquisher's Banner, and Door of Destinies make your rats even more OP. I definitely want to build a rat colony deck and this list helps thanks! A bit pricey but cool idea is Akroma's Memorial. Flying rats with trample.

Just a few ideas to help with the destruction, but mostly preventing your things from being destroyed. Akroma's Memorial, and Eldrazi Monument. Maybe Archaeomancer's Map, I'm probably blind because I'm not sure if anyone suggested this one but Wrath of God classic board wipe. Welding Jar, get back that good artifact that you want to keep. Helm of the Host for them Eldrazis, and Leonin Abunas just simple artifact protection.

Love the mono white deck, definitely my favorite color.

@king-saproling

Perilous Forays: Definitely a card I need to slot in, I'm just wondering what it should be slot in for? There doesn't seem to be an easy answer, I'm wondered what your thoughts on it are.

Concordant Crossroads: Undoubtably a very powerful card, I'm just not sure if haste makes enough of a difference in this deck to justify slotting this in.

Crashing Drawbridge: If I am going to slot in haste, its going to be through Concordant Crossroads

Akroma's Memorial: Definitely an interesting suggestion and a possible card to help close out games. It being removed can be a problem though, and I'm wondering what would be swapped out for it

Null Brooch: Having lands into my graveyard is good, but its very hard to get useful creatures or spell backs from the graveyard and I'm not sure if my entire hand is a good trade for one noncreature spell

Stone-Seeder Hierophant: Definitely synergistic, but it works similar to Lotus Cobra, but slower

Animist's Awakening: A very risky card, its possible to hit almost nothing for a very large mana investment, cutting down on some risks has been a point of upgrading this list.

Kamahl's Druidic Vow: Same reasoning as above, but less likely to miss

Traverse the Outlands: Most of the time, it hits about 5-6, which is a decent 1-1 payoff, but it costs more than cards such as Roiling Regrowth and there are other cards I would rather play with 5 CMC

Boundless Realms: If a game goes long, you will probably have more cards on the field than you can search up with this. It's a powerful card, but it doesn't have the speed that this list runs.

Reshape the Earth: Powerful card, great for finding certain lands like Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth, or Lotus Vale, but it is just too expensive CMC wise.

Pir's Whim: I will find a land card, but not everyone else will have an artifact/enchantment to sacrifice, especially in my pod. Its good, don't get me wrong, but there are more efficient cards imo.

Dryad's Revival: This is simply Timeless Witness, but Witness has a body that cards such as Ashaya, Soul of the Wild can use, or that I can sac to Greater Good, etc

Thoughts on these? Perilous Forays, Concordant Crossroads, Crashing Drawbridge, Akroma's Memorial, Null Brooch, Stone-Seeder Hierophant, Animist's Awakening, Kamahl's Druidic Vow, Traverse the Outlands, Boundless Realms, Reshape the Earth, Pir's Whim, Dryad's Revival

DrukenReaps on Liberating Surprise

3 months ago

Profet93 Mostly just swinging with Eldrazi xD Pumping Liberator actually works surprisingly well too... lol. It's more control and value than a straight win-con on this one. A handful of cards can really push through for me though- Eldrazi Conscription, Ugin, the Spirit Dragon, All Is Dust, Akroma's Memorial, and Portal to Phyrexia. There are some combos but they are mostly incidental. Forsaken Monument + Basalt Monolith is infinite mana for example but I don't really have an outlet for it. Or Myr Retriever + Junk Diver + 2 to 3 cost reduction + a sac outlet = spins round and round not doing much of anything again. At least not on its own xD
