Processing Throat Pain with Yuriko
3 years ago
Nice, multimedia! That has me off to a good start.
UPDATED ADDITIONS:
Bolas's Citadel - I just like playing this card when I have the mana to pull it off.
Overwhelmed Apprentice - A placeholder until I can get a few more powerful scry cards.
UPDATED CUTS:
Temple of the Dragon Queen - I honestly don't know how this even got in here, but "Bye, Dragonicia!" along with 2 basic swamps and 1 island.
Bone to Ash -- Wasn't suggested, but I honestly never use it when it's in my hand anyway...
Still on the lookout for some others, especially Fallen Shinobi cause I want a set for my Modern Ninja deck as well!

Processing Throat Pain with Yuriko
3 years ago
Hey, you're welcome.
The first cuts to consider are Temple of the Dragon Queen and 3 other lands since 40 lands is too much. In place of some lands add some lower CMC scry/draw such as Brainstorm, Augury Owl, Preordain, Telling Time. The idea is these cards can replace lands because they're one or two mana, easy to cast, that can help to find lands if you need a land, find/draw other cards or most important help to setup the top card of your library for Yuriko. The scry 3 of Augury Owl is nice since it's a flying creature to return to your hand to cast again.
The more lower CMC creatures who have evasion or can give itself or another creature evasion you add the better the creature base will be for Yuriko. There's a large amount of budget creatures to choose from therefore there's really no reason to play many nonNinja creatures who don't have evasion.
Some other cards to consider cutting:
- Pharika's Cure
- Wall of Frost
- Bone to Ash
- Vampire Spawn
- Calcite Snapper
- Shipbreaker Kraken
- Inkwell Leviathan
- Shambling Ghast
- Hoard Robber
- Death-Priest of Myrkul
- Zombie Ogre
- Gravedigger
- Scion of the Swarm
- Thassa's Intervention
A more complex budget interaction is Cunning Evasion or Grazilaxx, Illithid Scholar with Yuriko and other Ninjutsu. You keep bouncing Ninjas who are blocked and then Ninjutsu them while still in combat. This is helpful with Yuriko and other Ninjas because they will not always have evasion. Any Ninja who has a trigger when it does combat damage to a player such as Ingenious Infiltrator benefits from being able to be blocked then bounced and then Ninjutsu while still in combat, before combat damage step.
Some other cards to consider adding later on that are a little more expensive price, but still budget:
- Arcane Adaptation: this makes all creatures you control a Ninja as well as a Rogue. This is a powerful effect because then each creature who does combat damage to an opponent triggers Yuriko.
- Varragoth, Bloodsky Sire: it's a Rogue who's boast ability can tutor for any card and put that card on top of your library. You can activate boast at any time after Varragoth is declared as an attacker thus you can set up the top card of your library in combat before Varragoth dies if that is what is going to happen and before you do combat damage to a player.
- Fallen Shinobi: Ninja with a potentially busted trigger when you do combat damage to an opponent, but the power of it depends on what cards you exile from the top of your opponent's library.

Lazav Light Mill Deck

Add Glimpse the Unthinkable and Maddening Cacophony for some large mill. Add better counterspells like Counterspell , Didn't Say Please , Disallow and Thought Collapse . Take out Bone to Ash , Cancel , and other bad counterspells. Add better removal like Dimir Charm , Heartless Act and Drown in the Loch . Take out Doom Blade and bounce spells. If you still want a bounce spell, add Brazen Borrower . Take out Illusionary Armor and Exquisite Blood for Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots . You need better ramp so definitely add Sol Ring , Arcane Signet , Dimir Signet and add Command Tower for a land. Add Cloak of Mists and Aether Tunnel for Tricks of the Trade and Way of the Thief . Go infinite with Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith + Mind Grind . This isn't a mill win condition, but if you want to do something janky, you could do Tree of Perdition + Reduce in Stature + Sovereign's Bite to reduce an opponent to 0 life. Here's a lot of cards to put in. Hope this helps

Hero's Downfall can't interact with anything on the stack. When a spell or ability refers to a game object by only a type it is talking about a permanent of that type. On the stack cards are "TYPE spell", in all zones besides the battlefield and stack they are "TYPE card". Since Hero's Downfall only says "creature or planeswalker" and doesn't say "spell" or "card" it can only target a creature or planeswalker that is on the battlefield. Since Carnage Tyrant will have hexproof on the battlefield, it can not be targeted by Hero's Downfall .
If a card can target a creature spell hexproof doesn't do anything on the stack. Gladecover Scout could be countered by Bone to Ash . Venser, Shaper Savant could return a spell Carnage Tyrant to hand, but not a permanent one.

I would drop the one card with Surveil. Sinister Sabotage Don't make them learn a keyword for one card. Find another with Jumpstart or something like Bone to Ash.

Bestowed cards aren't creature spells though. If you cast a spell for bestow it can be Negated and can't be Bone to Ashed.
