Astarion's Thirst

Instant

Exile target creature. Put X +1/+1 counters on a commander creature you control, where X is the power of the creature exiled this way.

Thoughts on Astarion's Thirst?

Looks pretty neat! Considering the voltron element and Seshiro's comment (with which I couldn't agree more), some additional ideas:

  • Astarion's Thirst: depending on what you're exiling, this could prove to be a substantial boost in strength and toughness for either your commander or his companion.
  • Courageous Resolve: can be the killing blow against at least one of your opponents and allows you to draw as well.
  • Dark Dabbling: excellent anti-wipe spell in your deck, provided you play it mid-game somewhere (which is fine as wipes usually don't appear before then anyway).
  • Hatred: not exactly a cheap addition, but considering its potential that's not surprising. You have plenty of lifegain in this deck to make this an extremely dangerous card.
  • Mandate of Abaddon: again a great potential finisher, especially if your voltron creature is strong enough.
  • Silverquill Command: great booster for your voltron and cheap to cast with Killian on the BF.

Have fun with the deck!

I see people discussing boardwipe suggestions. The only one not mentioned here I run is Promise of Loyalty

I see you're running Vow of Duty. The other two Vow auras are quite fun too, with their versatility to enchant Killian, or something else.

Vow of Torment Vow of Malice

Same for the Impetus auras.

Ghoulish Impetus Martial Impetus Parasitic Impetus

Some of my favourite most powerful cards for Killian are: Holy Mantle Astarion's Thirst Angelic Destiny Celestial Mantle Sage's Reverie Timely Ward Ethereal Armor Songbirds' Blessing

I'm also looking forward to having the new Redemption Arc and Idolized

I would suggest switching out some of the cards that are a bit too focused, if that makes sense. For example Soothing Balm for Exsanguinate or Bishop's Soldier for Gifted Aetherborn. Otherwise this looks great! I included a few suggestions for mana fixing and protections. Need to keep your commander alive! Some of these are a bit expensive so they can be substituted later if you end up liking the deck and want to upgrade it.

carpecanum, thank you for the awesome suggestions! I added Astarion's Thirst and ordered Steel of the Godhead to be added upon arrival!

Steel of the Godhead for your boss maybe? Astarion's Thirst

Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin is a great secondary boss. Get that full Waaaagh feel by attaching Veteran's Armaments. The bonus it gives creates as many orcs as you attacked with, even if they all die from blockers. He needs an Ork name though.

Interesting build - I like it!

I too am enthralled by all things Phyrexian. Some of my personal favorites for Skittles are Haunted One, Sadistic Glee, Astarion's Thirst and Tainted Strike to name a few.

Check out my deck for inspiration - but I definitely like what you've done with your build! Long live Gix!
