TogbusPrime on Selvala hasn't the foggiest idea

So you missed some stuff you should definitely fit in: Blessed Respite, Encircling Fissure, Knight-Captain of Eos, and Slaughter the Strong. Similarly, Blunt the Assault seems like a must given your lack of life gain and your wincon requiring a large life total. I'd also look into more life gain in general.

Clinging Mists, Druid's Deliverance, Frontline Strategist (especially to increase the Eos synergy), Inspire Awe, Obscuring Haze, Pause for Reflection, Spike Weaver, and Spore Flower are also worth considering.

TriusMalarky on What, Exactly, is Wrong with …

Intervention Pact has the text box " : pay on your next upkeep or lose."

Lone Missionary is a far better card in Modern and Legacy, where it and aggro decks exist, and Arashin Cleric isn't too bad in Pioneer.

"But it's good in commander!!!!1!" Nope. It's probably hitting one token, or one of the creatures Hoofie buffed, or their commander one time. Let's see what does much, much better: Fog , Holy Day , Clinging Mists , Blinding Fog , Arachnogenesis and Teferi's Protection , most of which are unplayable and the best are, well, Teferi's Protection is pretty good because white doesn't get much else.

Compared to Pact of the Titan, which is Bonebreaker Giant except it has flash and you don't have to pay for it immediately.

It's like comparing a Frito to draft chaff. One shouldn't be in your deck, and other's life purpose is to be destroyed.

Hey, sure, consider cutting cards that are single effects such as sorceries for cards that have repeatable effects? It's not just Priest that's good with repeatable token sources also Korvold, Pitiless Plunderer / Ruthless Knave , Butcher of Malakir , etc. therefore expanding on tokens helps all these cards.

Some cards to consider cutting:

• Price of Betrayal
• Pillage
• Angrath's Rampage
• Clinging Mists
• Severed Strands
• Reclaim
• Pulse of Murasa
• Haunted Cloak

Some cards that are okay, but could be upgraded with budget options:

• Winding Way
• Relentless Pursuit
• Firemind Vessel
• Scaretiller
• Return to Nature
• Arboreal Grazer
• Gatecreeper Vine
• Llanowar Scout
• Torch Fiend
• Gilded Goose

Some budget land changes to consider:

• Command Tower --> Gruul Guildgate
• Exotic Orchard --> Bloodfell Caves
• Llanowar Wastes --> Foul Orchard
• Cinder Glade --> Rugged Highlands
• Smoldering Marsh --> Akoum Refuge
• Savage Lands --> Fertile Thicket
• Path of Ancestry --> Dormant Volcano

So the way you put it in parenthetical:

Serra's Herald

Creature - Angel (Mythic)

Flying, Lifelink

At the beginning of your upkeep, you may sacrifice Serra's Herald, if you do, scry X, where X is a quarter of your life total, rounded down.

7/3

---

Using a favorite mechanic of mine, Fateful Hour (Break of Day, Clinging Mists, Thraben Doomsayer, Gather the Townsfolk, Faith's Shield, Gavony Ironwright, Spell Snuff, and Village Survivors): and an effect I like- Revival / Revenge

---

Palliate Life

Sorcery (Rare)

Double your life total. Target opponent loses half their life, rounded up.

Fateful hour - If you have 5 or less life, you may have two target players exchange life totals instead.

Another Fateful Hour card

@ZendikarWol I think the cycling is a really good idea to think about and because of my use of creatures maybe the convoke could be a good idea too!

Dawn Charm however is mainly here for its utility. It can counter a burn spell targeting me as well as a fog; so it actually imo probably the most optimal fog in ... Clinging Mists might be a good candidate consider being replaced with some of your suggestions because of its 3cmc.... but it seems to be really hit-or-miss with fateful hour; I use my life total as a resource/cushion and dont use fogs at all until its lethal damage, so I get in that territory often....I've both lost games because of the mana cost as well as won games with the extra turn given with the extra tap power.... The the only thing I dont like about Defend the Hearth is that it doesn't protect Kiora, the Crashing Wave .

I'm gonna try out pollen though in the stead of mists... thanks!

I am hardly a spike, so if I say something stupid, forgive me. That said, your choice in fogs seems a little... suboptimal?

Angelsong and Haze of Pollen can draw you a card if you don't need the fog. Ethereal Haze , Holy Day , and Pause for Reflection are all cheaper than Dawn Charm and Clinging Mists (and really, when is Fateful Hour gonna be active?). Winds of Qal Sisma and Defend the Hearth are one-sided wraths.

SkullOfPoison Thanks!!I actually meant to put Constant Mists instead of Clinging Mists for the additional sac outlet. Burgeoning is a good one - didn't even think about it

SkullOfPoison on Definetly Not Gitrog

Instead of Clinging Mists I suggest Fog because it cost 2 less mana plus there will probably be very little situations where you have 5 or less health.For more land you might want Burgeoning.
