legendofa on How many names does Wizards …

10 months ago

This might just me imposing patterns where there isn't any, but as far as names go, they seem to have less implied meaning. For Drivnod vs. Vorinclex, Vorinclex starts off with the -vor- "eater" root, suggesting a destructive force--voracious, omnivore, etc. Drivnod doesn't have that linguistic connection, instead suggesting something like drip or drivel, with the harsher -nod just kind of there to be harsh.

To go into Ravnica, Rakdos is a harsher variation of the word rictus, Golgari can be seen as Golgotha + Calvary, Azorius is a Latin variant of azure. The names there are inspired by Slavic languages, heavy on Vs and Ks.

Names like Mondrak and Tekuthal are simply collections of harsh syllables. They're appropriately dissonant, but not really evocative. Mondrak could be based off mundus "world", but that doesn't carry through to the others.

As far as non-legendary cards, there are lots of names they haven't used yet. Personally, I was surprised that the name Reprieve hadn't been used in Stronghold or Weatherlight or something. The words "disguise," "lambent," "accident," and "regret" have not appeared on any paper cards (Geist of Regret is an Alchemy card, and Guise of Fire and Auramancer's Guise come close), and I'll bet you can come up with at least a color and basic effect for a card with each of those words. Also, tone is important. Professional Face-Breaker comes from a plane inspired by a slang-heavy culture with a "work hard and play hard" ethos, so the name's going to be a little more casual and direct than a card from a more ceremonial plane where formality is important.

Man, Bruna is one of the BEST budget commanders out there.

Kor Spiritdancer is an amazing card to have. With a ton of low drop auras, you can keep stacking her VERY quickly. You can use kor as a "fake" and draw out removal spells. Graceblade Artisan is similar, but more expensive and no draw.

Lightning Greaves is absolutely VERY important to have. Bruna bypasses shroud (same with Retether) and giving her a swing after cast is VERY important.

Helm of the Host - Any reason this is here? I feel like it doesn't do much of anything and for 5 mana, something like Arcane Signet would just be better because it ramps and usually isn't a "kill on sight" card. If you can copy Avacyn, i can understand, but that's 17 mana likely over 2-3 turns that's better spent elsewhere.

Avacyn, Angel of Hope <3 favorite MTG card!

Creatures like Invisible Stalker and Ascended Lawmage are REALLY good since hexproof is the best ability in MTG. When i play my Bruna deck, i often get targeted at the first chance, and cards with hexproof ensure my opponents have to work to get them off the board.

You should really consider these cheap cards:

Sovereigns of Lost Alara - Get ANY aura for free when voltron swinging. Can search for unblockable, indestructible, hexproof,... +10/+10 trample annihilator 2 (Eldrazi Conscription) or any other toolbox card.

Danitha Capashen, Paragon - Makes auras and equipment less to cast and comes STACKED With great abilities.

Auramancer's Guise - Gives +2/+2 for each aura on a creature AND vigilance?? Makes Kor Spiritdancer get +4/+4 for each aura on her... CRAZY good.

Ethereal Armor - Gives +1/+1 for each enchantment you control and gives first strike!

Open the Armory - VERY cheap tutor for aura/equipment.

Diplomatic Immunity - Gives shroud and has shroud so it's very difficult to remove the creature it's on. Bruna also does not care since she gets around shroud.

Counterspell - To replace Cancel as it's pretty bad and slower.

If you can spare a bit more cash: Nomad Mythmaker - REALLY good recursion and does NOT target so it gets around shroud.

I made my recommendations from Bruna, Enchantments of Alabaster I have a lot of other good stuff that i didn't feel like citing. Feel free to give it a look!

To SturWulf,

I’m trying to find room for Bear Umbra. I think it would be good for popping off precombat then holding up mana for later. Spellwild Ouphe seems underwhelming to me. Most of my instants and enchantments are under , besides Auramancer's Guise. Soul's Majesty costs too much for what it does. As well, it is a sorcery. This feels like it is just gonna get counter and not worth fighting over

Bruna is super neat. You might like these: Millikin , Deranged Assistant , Not of This World , Flickerform , Curator's Ward , Auramancer's Guise , Pemmin's Aura , Idyllic Tutor , Cephalid Illusionist (mill yourself out entirely with Lightning Greaves! at worst you can gradually mill yourself while having a perfect blocker), Tribute Mage , Vedalken AEthermage , Coalition Relic (gets Bruna out 2 turns early), Worn Powerstone , Merchant Scroll , Tunnel Vision , Mirror-Mad Phantasm

Oh man! If we can find a few card that put a target card on the bottom of our library, we can play Tunnel Vision on ourselves, then attack with Bruna. We would want a couple 2-3 ways to shuffle our yard back in to our library. We could also Traumatize our self ;).

Even better if that "put target card on bottom of library" could be done to an opponent as well cause we could either use it to put all our auras in the yard, or mill another person completely! Retether could be a good option to get our enchantments out if Bruna isn't available and we have fear of our yard being exiled. Open the Vaults get's our equipment as well. Open The Vaults would actually be fantastic if we could do a huge self mill with it in our hand and a whole bunch of mana rocks in our deck as they'd all be brought to the battlefield. This strategy would be worth instant/sorcery tutors and Archaeomancer s.

Here's a few cards for us to think about as we hone in on syngery — some might not work, but as we figure the subtler points out some might really shine:

Considering the self-mill strategy for Bruna, I realize Sigil of the Empty Throne suits and enchantment deck that's more as you are ramping lots and drawing so you can storm out casting enchantments. Because of the minimal amounts we HOPE to be casting them here, it's likely not worth the slot?

Hope that helps!
