Crook of Condemnation

Artifact

, : Exile target card from a graveyard.

, Exile Crook of Condemnation: Exile all cards from all graveyards.

Polaris on Can you interrupt the ability …

Yes, absolutely. "target creature card" means they have to declare what creature card they're going to use for the ability and that creature card has to be there when the ability resolves, so any instant-speed graveyard removal can make the ability fizzle.

Since it's a targeted ability, you can even just use something like Crook of Condemnation to exile just the card they targeted and still successfully interrupt the ability.

Looks like a fun list wanted to get your thoughts on some card idea's I had for your deck.

Colfenor's Urn has a cool interaction with the trigger and looks like you have enough triggers to make it work.

Crook of Condemnation , Relic of Progenitus , Scrabbling Claws , are all cool cheap ways to trigger your commander. You probably don't want to get rid of a lot of your cards in your graveyard, but you have a lot of looting so you can just exile your lands for the free 3/2's. Additionally, you can also just use them as graveyard hate for opponents as well.

Some effects that exile graveyards, again, budget friendly (useful for about 3 of the cards I linked): Burn Away, Hedonist's Trove, Sentinel Totem, Crook of Condemnation, Tormod's Crypt, Agent of Erebos, Nihil Spellbomb, Angel of Finality, Identity Crisis, Kaya's Guile, Remorseful Cleric, Rakdos Charm, Mnemonic Betrayal, Scavenger Grounds, Bojuka Bog, Day's Undoing.

I’d recommend only running 3-6 of these if you run the 3 cards that care about empty graveyards that I mentioned earlier.

I would suggest Crook of Condemnation as a way to prevent graveyard shufflers like the Eldrazi Titans

I am running Tormod's Crypt, alongside Relic of Progenitus, Crook of Condemnation, Silent Gravestone, and Scavenger Grounds, but your point is valid and highlights why I am running quite a few gravehate options. Filling graveyards is often what people are trying to do, and in case someone is running some sort of graveyard recursion or, heaven forbid, something that shuffles their graveyard into their library, my strategy can be ruined quickly. Every time a new graveyard removal artifact comes out I consider it.

Thanks for the comment! I'll take a look at your Arixmethes deck.

Update 9-1-2019:

Out: Crook of Condemnation <->In: Oketra the True

I am attempting to up the creature count, and I don’t play in a graveyard heavy meta. Plus, I acquired Oketra the True ’s Masterpiece Card, and am therefore legally required to jam it in here.

Reforge the Soul seems random. As do Prismatic Strands and Purify the Grave . If you're worried about Graveyard shenanigans just play Relic of Progenitus or Crook of Condemnation

I'd probably play Song of the Dryads over Darksteel Mutation

Might also consider some landwalk in lieu of relying on Shadow/Hormanship so much. Trailblazer's Boots for example.

I'd also probably play with Swiftfoot Boots over Lightning Greaves , so you can still target/equip stuff to it.
