If an effect would create one or more tokens under your control, it creates twice that many of those tokens instead.

DemonDragonJ on MtG Reprint Wish List

5 days ago

Magic: the Gathering has thousands, or even tens of thousands, of cards, some of which have been reprinted more often then have others (i.e., some have been reprinted numerous times, while others have never been reprinted), so I would like to make a list of any and all cards that users here would like to see reprinted, in any set and at any time. Obviously, we cannot mention any cards that are on the reserved list, but any other cards are eligible to be mentioned here.

First, I shall mention Book of Rass, Claws of Gix, Martyr's Cause, and Righteous Aura, since none of those cards have ever been reprinted, or at least they have not been reprinted, recently, so I very much would like to see them reprinted in the new border style and with new artwork, and they are also excellent cards for teaching newer players that life and permanents can be used as resources, as well.

Next, it would be great if Anointed Procession could be reprinted, especially considering that WotC has reprinted both Doubling Season and Parallel Lives, recently, meaning that the two green enchantments are much less expensive than is the white one.

I also find it to be very surprising that Oloro, Ageless Ascetic has never been reprinted, outside of a judge promo, which I do not consider to be a proper reprint, given that he is a very popular general in EDH.

Absorb was reprinted, in the most recent visit to Ravnica, but it is still a rare, which I feel is definitely not the rarity that it should have, now; it most certainly should be only an uncommon, and I also would like to see Undermine reprinted as an uncommon, as well.

The filter lands (i.e., Cascade Bluffs, Twilight Mire, and so forth) have been reprinted in numerous Commander sets, but either with the original artwork and flavor text from Shadowmoor and Eventide or with artwork and flavor text in Universes Beyond sets, and they have never been reprinted in a standard set, so I would like to see them reprinted in a standard set, so that they shall have new artwork and flavor text.

Ancient Spider has never been reprinted, so I feel that it definitely deserves to be; with Thunder Spirit being on the reserved list (which it most certainly should not be, in my mind), I believe that WotC should reprint Sky Spirit more frequently, as it is such a useful creature, and, similarly, Tempest Drake has never been reprinted, so it definitely should be. Also, Dragonlair Spider is not terribly expensive, currently but I feel that it deserves a reprint, to keep it affordable.

The utility lands from both Ravnica (i.e., Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion) and Innistrad (i..e, Kessig Wolf Run) are an interesting case, since some of those cards have been reprinted more often than have the others, so I would like to see all of them reprinted, to keep them easily available.

The original ten guildmages (from the first Ravnica block) were reprinted in Ravnica Remastered, so I would like to see the ten guildmages from the Return to Ravnica block (i.e., Vizkopa Guildmage, Zameck Guildmage, and so forth) reprinted, as well.

Coalition VictoryGC was reprinted as a timeshifted card, but I would like to see it reprinted in the new frame style, and, Cromat has never been reprinted, either, so it would be nice to see that card in the new frame style, as well.

Given how frequently WotC has reprinted Command Tower, Reliquary Tower, Thespian's Stage, and Exotic Orchard, I really wish that they would reprint Homeward Path and Reflecting Pool more frequently, as well.

Grixis Charm is the only charm from its cycle that has not yet been reprinted, so I would like to see it reprinted, and, similarly, Dromar, the Banisher and Numot, the Devastator are also the only cards in their cycles that have never been reprinted, either, so I definitely would like to see them be reprinted, at some point, as well.

Given that WotC recently reprinted Mikokoro, Center of the Sea twice, it would be nice to see them reprint Miren, the Moaning Well; I understand that High Market is generally superior to the well, but it still would be nice to have the well reprinted, anyway.

Intervention Pact is the only card from its cycle that was not reprinted in Time Spiral remastered, so I definitely would like to see it reprinted, at some point.

The ten lieges were reprinted in the second Double Masters set, but Deathbringer Liege was the only one that had new artwork, so I would like to see all ten reprinted, with new artwork, at some point, and I also would like to see the ten demigods (i.e., Divinity of Pride, Deus of Calamity, and so forth), as well as the ten auras that are associated with them (i.e., Scourge of the Nobilis, Clout of the Dominus, and so forth) reprinted, as well.

I believe that I have mentioned a fairly significant number of cards that I would like to see reprinted, so I shall now open this conversation to other users, here; what are some cards that you very much would like to see be reprinted?

Sorry, I phrased that a little too black and white. It's fine enough that I can pull a Hare Apparent from my deck when I play one, the whiffing comes from a good card or two being forced onto the bottom of my library. I could play a Hare Apparent then suddenly end up with a good land or an Anointed Procession ending up at the bottom of the library. Sword of the Animist does at least allow for shuffling, so I can be lucky enough to end up with cards back near the top.

Deck_Building_Dude -
Thank you for all the kind words too ... but honestly, it was your earlier comment that set me on this path, so thank YOU!!!

Yeah, Martial Coup is definitely better for this deck. I think I must have been comparing it to other Mass Disruption options when I cut it, rather than comparing it to other Go Wide options ... derp!

Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon has been fine so far, but thanks much for the thought; I'll definitely keep an eye on her. FWIW, Mardu Siegebreaker is my current "Hmmmmmm ..." card, mostly becuase it's so inconsistent ... amazing with something like Mirkwood Bats on the board, but super-frustrating with a board full of Legendaries and Tokens!

The token doublers are GREAT, but I'm very consciously avoiding them in this deck, just because I hate accidental infinite combos (in case it's not obvious, Exalted Sunborn or Anointed Procession go infinte with Spawning Pit and Pitiless Plunder on the board). I mean, I'm absolutely happy to run infinite combos, but I just hate it when they happen accidentally in a lower-Bracket deck ... if I'm doing combos, I'm going all-in! :-)
Similarly, I'm not running Luminous Broodmoth (2-card combo with any Free Sac), Restoration Angel (2-card combo with Mardu Siegebreaker), Stridehangar Automaton or Forsaken Miner (3-card combos with Pitiless Plunderer and any Free Sac), or Aggravated Assault (3-card combo with Mardu Siegebreaker and Professional Face-Breaker).
All that said, I've REALLY been enjoying working on this deck though for my friend, so I think I'm almost certainly going to try building this as an all-in combo deck (at a higher Bracket and with a higher budget) for myself.

Fanatical Devotion is a fantastic card and I generally try to run both. But if I can only find room for one, it's almost always Reconnaissance. Partly because it always fits nicely on curve (especially with a 3-mana Commander), but mostly because I find the pseudo-Vigilance to be so useful in multi-player.

Great catch on Ashnod's Altar; I'm not sure why I trimmed it. It maybe combo'd with some card that's no longer there? Or was maybe a purely accidental cut? Either way, you'll see it back in the deck soon(tm)!

Good call on Thunder of Unity ... I'll force it into some test games (I seriously can't recall ever having cast it, lol) and form an opinion.

Thanks again for all the thoughtful and kind comments! And good luck (and good skill!) on your remaining finals!

Cheers!

Just taking a break from my studies (I'm done Friday!) to give initial thoughts...

First, good work getting the Mana Curve down. I prefer a 2-3 average CMC for my decks so this is gorgeous!

Possible Swaps and Cuts

I will say I prefer Martial Coup over Forth Eorlingas! simply because Martial wipes the board if X is greater than 5. Forth's only benefit is making you the Monarch, but I don't see much reason in here to become the Monarch, and making 2/2s instead of 1/1s, but in a Zurgo shell your goal should be numbers. In fact Martial Coup is cheaper than Forth Eorlingas!, so if you're looking for budget, maybe give it a look.

I'm normally not huge on Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, but in your shell I think it'll work. Just keep an eye on it to be sure it's pulling its weight. Every deck has at least one card to "keep an eye on." In my Zurgo deck, it's Crackling Doom and Indebted Spirit.

If you can make room for it, I'd go for an Exalted Sunborn. Better options are Anointed Procession and Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation  ^Flip, but those are $40-$60 a piece if you don't wanna proxy. Exalted Sunborn, though, is $12 and essentially Anointed Procession on a stick with a Warp cost that's the same as Anointed, so I'd look at that for doubling tokens.

I also prefer Fanatical Devotion over Reconnaissance simply because it's another sac outlet. It's also cheaper (.77 vs $3-$5).

I would also personally swap Woe Strider or Phyrexian Plaguelord (honestly probably the Plaguelord due to its mana cost) for Ashnod's Altar. One sac gives you 2 colorless that can be pumped into X spells or larger creatures.

My last cut would be Thunder of Unity. There are a lot of much more impactful enchantments than this one.

Honestly man this looks fairly solid for a budget precon upgrade! You've even introduced me to a few cards I can use (like Mardu Devotee). I'm impressed. This is MUCH better than what you had before. I can see an actual strategy brewing. I'd just add a few more sac outlets more than anything, as well as any way to increase token output. Good stuff!

Anointed Procession? Teleportal is hilarious when they don't expect it.

Why Delney, Streetwise Lookout? Raticate has more than 2 power?

I guessing you've already thought of Anointed Procession

Wake the Dead could be cute

Vessiliana - Love the decklist. Simple and efficient in terms of the heavy creature focus with the artifacts/enchantments/sorceries/instants playing more of just a support role...It is like I built this deck as that is usually all my deck strategies!!!

I like the additional of Warleader's Call. I do run that in one of my decks but did not think of it for Edgar. How has that playtested?

Another card I recently discovered I was considering for my Edgar deck and other {W} token focus decks was Renewed Solidarity. Not quite as good as Anointed Procession as it it only doubles creatures and only at the end step, but plays a little faster and adds the small anthem effect.

8-16-08-decimus I actually meant to put Hardened Tactician into the deck, I must have forgotten to do it. Thank you for noticing. :D

Venum Thank you for your suggestions. I considered running a burn section for cards like Impact Tremors, but opted out of doing it. Ask for Elspeth, Storm Slayer, she's a great card, but since she makes soldier tokens and not warriors, I opted out of using her. If I ran her, I'd also want to run Mondrak, Glory Dominus and Anointed Procession but both are really expensive and I wanted to keep the budget a little on the calmer side.
