Crow_Umbra on Herald's Horn draw question?

2 months ago

1. Cast Herald's Horn, picking Rat/Merfolk/Elf/Goblin/etc. Pass turn.

2. Following turn starts, go through phases beginning with Untap.

3. Upkeep, look at the top card and it is a creature of your chosen type. You may reveal it and then put it into your hand. Even if it is a creature of that chosen type you may also choose to not reveal it and place it back on top.

4. Upkeep phase is done, go to Draw Step and draw for turn. At this point you will either draw the next card if you revealed and kept the previous one, or you will draw the card you saw with Herald's Horn, then placed back on top.

You only do this once per turn. If you could repeat, the text would probably have a clause stating you can repeat the process, kind of like Cultivator Colossus for example.

Edit addition - Last nit-picky bit, but Herald's Horn places the card into your hand and doesn't specifically say that you draw that card. That matters mostly for effects that check drawing.

Ruling text from the Scryfall pagefor Heralds Horn:

"If you don't put the top card of your library into your hand, you put it back on top of your library without revealing it. You'll draw it in that turn's draw step."

legendofa Love the reccommendations. me personally, I only own Ghalta, Primal Hunger, Cultivator Colossus, Peer into the Abyss, Progenitus, A Realm Reborn, and Chromatic Lantern. I will be buying the rest of the cards whenever I'm able to, and as long as the cards aren't too expensive (ahemmm Rhystic StudyGC) then I would definitely add them in. also I think just adding in first of Suns and still keeping in the Jodah, Archmage Eternal might be good but I use Morophon, the Boundless as the commander so I have a 2 in 50 chance to get the dinos to be free. later today I'm going to get the name of all the bi-tri lands that I have and find out what ones of those are better for the mana base

Rhadamanthus on How does Cultivator Colossus' ability …

Obscura Storefront won't get sacrificed until after you're completely finished dealing with Cultivator Colossus' ETB trigger.

If a triggered ability triggers during the resolution of another spell or ability, it has to wait until that other spell/ability is finished resolving to be put onto the stack. The "repeat this process" part of Cultivator Colossus' ability is something that happens as part of the resolution of the original ETB trigger, it's not another trigger that's put onto the stack separately. The ETB trigger from Obscura Storefront won't be put onto the stack until you've stopped repeating the Cultivator Colossus process.

If I have The Necrobloom on the field and I play Cultivator Colossus with a land like Obscura Storefront, does the land enter, I draw a card, and then Obscura Storefront gets sacrificed?

Or does the Obscura Storefront enter, gets sacrificed, get a new land, and then draw?

If it's the latter, could I dredge Obscura Storefront back to my hand by using The Necrobloom's ability to keep repeating the process until I run out of valid lands?

eww... alright, lemme help.

• Elvish Mystic / Llanowar Elves - maybe spring for the Birds of Paradise if you can. Fyndhorn Elves do the exact same thing at this point.

• Arbor Elf and then included Utopia Sprawl, maybe use Sakura-Tribe Elder. Satyr Wayfinder also provides the same utility here.

• Fanatic of Rhonas can also help.

• You're likely going to want to include Arboreal Grazer and the typical Flare of Cultivation.

• The other thing that might help considering the intention of your build, is it seems you've overlooked Dryad Arbor and Green Sun's Zenith.

• Your game winners/closers are Dungrove Elder, Lumra, Bellow of the Woods and Cultivator Colossus.

• Maybe consider Scapeshift, Ayula's Influence, Life from the Loam. Cheers!

Thanks, I am not a huge fan of Cultivator Colossus mainly because it needs lands in hand to be useful (often 3+ to be comparable to Titan), and it also doesn't win the game on the spot, at a higher CMC than Primeval Titan, which often will.

If I wanted to avoid surgical more than I already do (Dryad + Analyst can already win on their own), I would probably add Scapeshift or Lumra, Bellow of the Woods back in, but I don't want to add back the second Lotus Field which enables the Scapeshift lines, and with only 1 lotus, lumra is like a colossus basically, really reliant on some outside factors to be good.

Analyst is slightly better mostly because it does its job from the grave, and can be used as ramp early then won with later. I would only run 1 of the graveyard creatures, with my minimalist package right now, and analyst just lines up better into hate and removal.
