Corpse Knight

Creature — Zombie Knight

Whenever another creature enters under your control, each opponent loses 1 life.

Since you have some of that legendary creature subtheme going here, I would suggest Jirina, Dauntless General for the deck as it enters to nuke a grave, but can be sacrificed to protect other humans, namely Squall. This is really good if you can get Squall through to hit OP as it can be a recursive protection card.

If you like the idea Jirina, but find the human only syergy lacking, then I would suggest Selfless Savior or Selfless Spirit as good alternate options. The Spirit is great for its evasive qualities and can be a decent attacker since if it attacks alone with Squall on board, it can pressure 4 in air easily.

If you want another great legend that pairs with the legend human theme, then I suggest Adeline, Resplendent Cathar as it creates human tokens and is an amazing curve into squall for attacking by itself for the doublestrike bonus (attack trigger token will not stop the doublestrike trigger).

Guide of Souls Would be a great 1 drop for your deck as it can help give Squall flying if you have enough energy built up and it can build up energy by itself at a good enough rate you don't need other energy based cards to run. This would also pair very well with the Adeline if you chose to include.

Some useful disruption I have had succes with (when in standard) is Momentum Breaker. This card is useful for being nontraget removal to deal with ward/hexproof but also great because it make OP discard if no threat on board so you can even pressure hand with it. This is great for deck as you can sacrifice for small life to get in grave to recur and pressure OP board/hand more.

A side optin you can run over the Tidehollow Sculler would be Deep-Cavern Bat as it is an evasive threat that does the same thing roughly, but is easier on the mana types and has lifelink. If you want a human you could use Kitesail Freebooter and would only be good for trying to syergise with Kudro you currently have in deck.

Cards I am not caring fo rtoo much in your list would be Judge Magister Gabranth, Killian, Ink Duelist, and Corpse Knight. Judge is good for sacrificed focus decks, but you don't have any sac outlets or token strats to make this really work. Killian feels out of placed with the lack of targeted interactions that benefit his cost reduction. Lastly Corpse Knight just never works out for me unless I am playing some combo deck that dumps alot of creatures on the board.

Hope these options help. If you would like more suggestions I am will to recomend more. Whether it be looking for more general good cards or going for specfici theme cards.

Corpse Knight, Cruel Celebrant, and Zulaport Cutthroat might be better options than Blood Artist, in case someone has shroud or hexproof or protection or whatever.

Or, for the jank option, Thieves' Guild Enforcer and a giant pile of random Rogues. It'll be really good the first time. Throw in Dauthi Voidwalker to steal the biggest creature.

matvone your deck isn't public, but I would make sure you have Leonin Relic-Warder + Animate Dead or Dance of the Dead or Necromancy + Impact Tremorsfoil. It doesn't work with Orcish Bowmasters or Dragon Tempest though, however it will pair within things like Corpse Knight or others I'm sure you might have if your running WGD primary. You probably are but thought I would mention :).

I continued to dig for cards both old and news, that are not listed here but could fit:

  • Gift of Immortality : This card has lot of potential, i think this card has been glanced over because if you're not careful you don't realize it's every end step and not only yours. Even if used on a one mana afterlife 1 fodder, in a turn rotation of a 4 players game it would already have payed for itself (4 recursion of 1 mana creatures for 3 mana). In this deck it's like a better version of Ophiomancer. Others awesome targets would be Market Gnome, Ranger-Captain of Eos, Elenda, the Dusk Rose, Hallowed Spiritkeeper, Kokusho, the Evening Star (for those that play it like me). Or can be used as a protection for sacrifice engine, a draw engine, a blood artist effect or Teysa. With flash or an ability to chose of make it comeback to your hand instead of attached to the creature i think it would be a no brainer.

  • Crowded Crypt : both a ramp and a payoff cards, with Teysa and a one mana afterlife 1 fodder it's already 6 corpse counter on the Crowded Crypt, a few other sacrifice and it's a winning condition. I know it's a 3 mana ramps but it's very fitting in this deck and a ramp.

  • Bartolome del Presidio: another free sacrifice engine for 2 manas, but personnally i would prefer using Warren Soultrader and Viscera Seer.

  • Reliquary Monk: An interesting removal, i almost find it better than Cathar Commando since with Teysa it's a double removal. Of course the downside are the 3 mana cost that can't be splitted over time like Cathar and flash missing.

  • Funeral Room / Awakening Hall: another blood artist effect, with a recursion ability later, but you already haven't included The Meathook Massacre. Personnally i'm almost at a point where i'm ready to remove Blood Artist since it's the last effect that target a single player instead of dealing damage to each opponents, it's only upside is that it also work with opponent creatures dying.

  • Kambal, Profiteering Mayor: It's a mix of Corpse Knight and token making. I'm not a fan of "this ability triggers only once each turn" and "one or more token" instead of "a token". Although a lot of people include it in their lists, i have mixed feeling about this card.

  • High-Society Hunter : a better Grim Haruspex since it also work for other players but still 5 manas, i would not include it.

This is a very, very intriguing start of a decklist!!!! I was just looking at another deck that had the enchantment Skybind - I think it would be fascinating to do a black/white deck combining some of these very powerful ETB effects with the flicker effect of that card, multiplied by Panharmonicon!!!!

Just some random black, white, or black/white cards I think might have good ETB effects for this concept:

Gnawing Vermin

Thieves' Guild Enforcer

Cauldron Familiar

Blood Seeker

Burglar Rat

Corpse Knight

Corrupt Court Official

Dirty Rat

Gatekeeper of Malakir

Tainted Adversary

Basilica Bell-Haunt

Company Commander (I mainly play big casual multi-person games so this suggestion is with that in mind!)

Slumbering Keepguard

Soul Warden

Charming Prince

I'd make a list of all the cheap enchantments I think might work for this too, but I see I am already going overboard.

Tbh I am a fairly new player and very new to deckbuilding but thought I'd drop you a line!!!

Nice to see more Myriad Isshin lists. I feel like it's a growing sub-variant of the token go-wide Isshin strat. In looking at your deck, I think you have a lot of great pieces that most Isshin decks would want, but I do have a few suggestions:

  • Your land count is kinda low at 30. I get that your Equipments are intended for protective and aggro purposes, but I think they may be mana intensive for that purpose. Since Isshin wants to go wide, I'd recommend swapping some of your equipment (but not Feast and Famine lol) for a few more lands and 2 cmc mana rocks. It's a personal preference thing, but totally ignore if it hasn't been an issue in your irl plays.

  • On the topic of protection and going wide, I think Unbreakable Formation and Scapegoat are some great budget board protection effects. Clever Concealment is a slightly more budget friendly alternative to Teferi's Protection, but can still be pricey for some. Having some instant speed board protection options can be more helpful than protecting one creature at a time. Isshin thrives on maintaining aggro momentum, instead of protecting single creatures like a Voltron strat might.

  • I highly recommend putting in some ETB group slug damage like Impact Tremors, Corpse Knight, or Witty Roastmaster. Purphoros, God of the Forge is the most expensive upgrade you can make in this theme, but the first 3 mentioned will do plenty of damage with all your doubled up Myriad. From having played Isshin go-wide for the past year, I highly recommend the ETB damage to help your overall gameplan.

  • Professional Face-Breaker could be helpful and compliment the Treasure producers you already have in deck.

  • Devilish Valet could be a potentially heavy hitter with all your Myriad tokens you make each swing.

I hope these suggestions are a helpful start. Happy to chat through any additional suggestions if you're up for it. Best of luck with your deck!

Ogre Battledriver is kind of nice I may add him.

I did know that about Elturel Survivors, thanks for letting me know how that works tho.

I'll stick to deathtouch rather than menace, as I said Pyreheart Wolf Was really just filler lol.

Skyhunter Strike Force is nice I'll keep that in mind.

Yeah I pretty much made the decision to cut Lightning Runner as we were speaking as I thought the same, also thanks for checking the price.

Corpse Knight and Witty Roastmaster are good adds, I didn't even think of taking advantage of the tokens with things like them and similar effects lol.

Hellrider and didn't even see that effect of Commissar Severina Raine but they are both good for the same reason.

I'll take the lands into account, Captain Lannery Storm is quite nice with isshin.

I'll keep Tibalt's Trickery in mind but for now I'll keep chaos warp for overall budget reasons lol.

I missed Soul Partition in the brothers war set, it's quite nice.

Generous Gift and Stroke of Midnight are definitely nice cards, kind of forgot about Generous Gift lol.

As for now I like Mortify a bit better as there's currently no really threatening Artifacts, but Wear / Tear will be noted tho.

I love Plumb the Forbidden lol.

Fates' Reversal is really just for the times isshin gets killed a lot and he becomes too expensive to cast again, the idea I have is just let him go to the graveyard and bring him back if it gets stopped it's no big deal as that would be my last effort before complete death, that's really all Fates' Reversal is for lol.

I did see Flowering of the White Tree But don't have it for money reasons.
