Rowan, Scion of War's activated ability doesn't add mana; it only reduces generic costs. Let's say you activate Necropotence five times, so you pay and lose 5 life. You want to cast Breath of Malfegor, so you activate Rowan, Scion's ability. No mana is added to your mana pool, but Breath of Malfegor now costs less. This only reduces the generic cost, so you still have to pay .

You can tap the Chromatic Orrery to pay for the , but there is no effect here that can reduce or ignore colored mana costs. Those still have to be paid normally.

Draw a card. You may return a permanent you control to your hand or put a card from your hand on the bottom of your library. If you did either, draw an additional card.


TypicalTimmy, you do know Breath of Malfegor is an actual card right?

Hi Ravenrose, thanks for stopping by to check out my deck.

I wrote a primer where I explain more of my card choices in greater detail, as well as the general strategy for how I hope to play the deck. I recently did a brief summary of the deck's first 3 games, and some of the things I noticed from those games.

From playing the deck and play-testing it a lot, I think this deck wants to try to copy "quality" spells, as opposed to trying to copy every single instant and sorcery possible. I like the flexibility in copying removal and interaction, draw spells, and burn spells that can hit my opponents directly. I have a few different effects that can make additional spell copies for additional value and redundancy in case Anhelo gets removed.

This deck doesn't want to swing in combat at all, and wants to try to build up a board of a token generator or two for Casualty 2 fodder. From there, it becomes a matter of reading the flow of the game to determine which spell(s) might be best to copy.

Although this deck does run the infinite combo option of Twinflame + Dualcaster Mage (copy another creature I control with Twinflame to make a copy, then flash in Dualcaster, targetting Twinflame to continuously copy Dualcaster & Twinflame), this deck also seeks to inflict burn damage by copying spells like Breath of Malfegor, Jaya's Immolating Inferno, etc. The infinite combo is an option to win, but not the main focus or only method to win in this deck.

Yes, Breath of Malfegor and Fated Return were absolutely the right cards to cut.

No problem, man. It's always hard to say what is good and what isn't without actually playing the deck, but honestly Paradox Engine feels a little underpowered here. You don't have a lot of tap abilities aside from your mana rocks to really abuse it, but with Dralnu and Wort it's probably fine.

Also Breath of Malfegor, Trail of Evidence, and Intimidation Bolt seem a bit underpowered compared to some of your other spells. Maybe Boros Charm as well, but cutting all the lower cost stuff seems iffy. In the end, it's up to you, and you've played the deck, so it's your call. My rule of thumb is just cards that have felt awkward to cast get cut, even if I love them.

Although I could see Trail of Evidence and Paradox Engine being game-ending if they're on the field with Inspiring Statuary. Although that might get a bit oppressive, depending on how your playgroup is. Something like that isn't "infinite" but it's going to end the game long before you ever run out of mana, unless someone's gained just an absurd amount of life.

This deck looks awesome tho, man!

Hi,

i like the deck overall.

But i think Hall of Triumph is not good in 3c Decks. Try Always Watching .

And i dont get your Commander choice. I dont see him synergies to well whit your deck.

Same whit Day of Destiny you only have 7-8 targets i think a Coat of Arms is much better.

Think about Replacing the following:- Auger Spree --> Go for the Throat- Breath of Malfegor --> Death Grasp- Brute Force --> Anguished Unmaking- Dismember --> Utter End- 5. No-Dachi --> Umezawa's Jitte

I dont see the Planswalkers work whit our deck. maybe try Walker like:

Thats just a first fast review.
