Craeter on Defense of the Ancients (DotA)

Hexapod Okay I looked it up, Mana Burn used to be a rule back when I first started playing and they removed it from MTG in 2010, hence why Calming Verse has that text, only its not a drawback anymore. I just forgot about it since it's been so long.

Hexapod Oh yeah Sidar looks like a better version of Assassin Den and it synergizes better, so I'll swap those two out. Thanks for the suggestion!

Yeah the cheap targeted protection from the Watchdog is nice. Calming Verse seems pretty crazy, board wipe enemy Enchantments. There's no drawback to just Tapping all your mana down before playing it right? Like it seems like there isn't really a downside to the card? Unless I'm missing something.

Thank you Craeter for commenting on Para Bellum | Arcades, The Strategist!

I really wanted my build to be centered on walls and defenders. I feel the tweaks I made over the years have not yielded the intended result and I was planning a few changes.

I like that you included Resolute Watchdog, I might do the same. Calming Verse is a great card, I had forgotten it existed. I have to try that in a few lists.

For your own list I think you would like Sidar Kondo of Jamuraa for the evasion.

Any commander with green and white could do with green being more important for mass enchantment removal.

Cards to consider: Aura of Silence, Bane of Progress, Aura Shards, Aura Mutation, Allay, Aura Blast, Farewell, Austere Command, Back to Nature, Calming Verse, Cleansing Nova, Heliod's Intervention and Cleanfall.

If course the best enchantment removal is Disenchant.

Love enchantress decks. You gave me some great ideas for mine.

I love the combo of Archon of Sun's Grace &/or Ajani's Chosen + Enchanted Evening + any enchantment to trigger their ETB and generate infinite tokens.
Enchanted Evening also pairs well with Calming Verse.

Hi, BruhYouFarted. I'm probably not gonna run Remove Enchantments. This is supposed to be an aggresive deck, and Id rather want my stuff to end up in my graveyard so I can use Brilliant Restoration etc later on. Reliquary Tower is nice, but Im not sure this is the right deck for it thematically. Again, I dont really care if stuff ends up in my grave. As for the lands - Ive tried to make this a fast deck, Im trying to add as few slow lands as possible (lands that enter tapped). Thanks for your suggestions :)

Hi again, smack80. I do like Calming Verse a lot! But imo it is a card that fits in decks which tries to maximize value of the cards it plays. This deck is kinda the opposite. It plays a lot of small efficient, but not very effective cards; And tries to storm off rather than gain advantage per card played. Thanks for the suggestion :)

Hi, bushido_man96. Rishkar's Expertise looks like a good card, but is probably not a good fit in this deck. If you read the description, Ive noted that I play the cards in the "draw" category because I want a way back in the game if my deck "stops working". Like if there is a board wipe and I lose all my enchantresses, or if I dont have any auras to play. In these scenarios, I dont necessarily have any presence, and cant rely on having for example a big creature. IMO, Rishkar's Expertise is good when you are ahead, but I want draw cards that are good when I am behind. Also, the mana cost is just way to high for this deck. Anyways, thanks for the suggestion :)

Even thought I rarily find new cards that I want to add to my decks, I am very happy for suggestions :)

What, no Calming Verse?

If you really want to go Voltron, I'd consider Infect creatures. You can find them.

Thank you, TogbusPrime! That is definitely worth considering. I do have a bit of malice hidden in there, with Enchanted Evening and either Aura Thief or Calming Verse, so perhaps Opalescence might find a slot!
