Spirits on Kaalia, Mirror Breaker EDH

3 weeks ago

matvone,

Agreed the Entomb + Animate Dead ({1}{B}{B}) is less mana intensive than the Buried Alive + Reanimate ({2}{B}{B}). It's much higher risk for sure, I thought about just using the Leonin Relic-Warder instead, but the extra mana slowed it down.

Gisela, Blade of Goldnight is a good pull out, along with Avacyn, Angel of Hope were both out from 2020-2024 but I decided to add a combat damage line back in, there both unnecessary angels in here.

Bogardan Hellkite lived in this deck forever, until the Orcish Bowmasters was printed, but it is a great alternative if the focus is the Worldgorger Dragon lines.

Red Dragon does the damage, but it doesn't have Flash so it's not really effective like Orcish Bowmasters or Bogardan Hellkite. Recruiter of the Guard and Imperial Recruiter are also great for finding the Orcish Bowmasters with the combo.

Love Kaalia combo, very cool matvone.

Shockingly I’m not seeing Avacyn, Angel of Hope

Epidilius on Infinite Rulings

Tsukimi You're right, that was poorly worded, sorry. It is how I would approach my group with something like this though, I really do miss that kind of Timmy magic lol. Sacrificing Bottle Gnomes with Glissa, the Traitor *oversized* and Grave Pact was peak Magic for our group way back when.

But for the "Is it mass land destruction" thing, imo that is the problem that needs to be solved for every restriction. Is it MLD if I can recur and activate Ghost Quarter 80 times a turn? Is it MLD if I sacrifice Bearer of the Heavens while I have Avacyn, Angel of Hope in play? Where is the line drawn? That is why it is also my opinion that the best way to handle things would just be "Hey guys, no MLD or MLD like effects please" and trust the group.

I'm also not really trying to find a definitive solution, as I don't think there is one, but discussing Magic is fun haha

Yeah the spawn is a menace lol. Overlooked. Craeter Dawnglade might be my favorite mono green creature. It coupled with something like Avacyn, Angel of Hope and/or Ghostly Prison, Solitary Confinement, etc is wild ;)

DemonDragonJ on Innistrad Remastered Speculation and Wishlist

4 months ago

Previews for Innistrad remastered have begun, so here is a link to what has been revealed, thus far; some of the cards are not surprising, such as Emrakul, the Promised End, Liliana of the Veil, Blood Artist, Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip, or Edgar Markov, but others are more so, such as Mass Hysteria, so I hope that the majority of the cards in this set are cards that players wish to be reprinted.

I hope that the original version of Avacyn, Avacyn, Angel of Hope shall be reprinted, along with Bruna, Light of Alabaster, Gisela, Blade of Goldnight, and Sigarda, Host of Herons, and it also would be nice to have either version of Liesa reprinted, as well.

I heard that the "slow lands" (i.e., Deathcap Glade, Sundown Pass, and so forth) may be reprinted, and it would be nice, but I still would prefer to see reprints of the enym-colored "check lands" (i.e., Hinterland Harbor, Isolated Chapel, and so forth), since the original printings of those cards are the only printings that feature the original artwork and are also available in foil.

What cards are other players, here, hoping to see, in this set?

Flarhoon13 on Game of Thrones: Sylvia Brightspear's Dragons

5 months ago

May 3, 2024, I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them.

Aug 1

Game of Thrones: Khorvath and Sylvia Brightspear's other Dragons loss, great game, I was Poland, crushed between the Superpowers. Voja, Jaws of the Conclave was in the driver's seat first, then Blaine's Avacyn, Angel of Hope made an Epic late run to comeback and wreck Cody's Sophia, Dogged Detective 19-25-1. .432

Aexislord on Emmara, Soul of the Tapped (EDH - Optimized)

Hackbrett Thank you so much for providing a link to this deck on your list in Moxfield! As per your suggestion, I have added a new section called "Recent Changes" where you will be able to see what cards I add/remove over time.

Based on the boardwipes used by your playgroup, I would recommend that you include Archon of Valor's Reach (I usually declare Sorceries) and Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines (if this one synergized with cards like Welcoming Vampire, it would be an auto include. Nevertheless, this doubles the ETB effect of Craterhoof Behemoth and you can bring in both as a finishing combo with Tooth and Nail) to replace the Avacyn, Angel of Hope and Dawnglade Regent that you took out. I am actually considering replacing Avacyn, Angel of Hope with Archon of Valor's Reach in the list regardless, and potentially replacing other Indestructible effects with Phase Out effects, since I have also felt that non-destruction boardwipes are taking over. If you really want to lock your board down, you could also include a Gaddock Teeg.

Hopefully these suggestions help, definitely let me know if you decide to try them out, and truly thank you for your support!

Fair Market Value {3}{W}

Sorcery

Gain control of target nonland permanent and untap it. Its controller creates a number of treasure tokens equal to that permanents mana value plus 3.

:)

And yes, you could target your own permanent! So perhaps you target your own Avacyn, Angel of Hope and create 11 treasures, which nets you 7!

:D mono-white ramp ftw!!
