Darien, King of Kjeldor

Legendary Creature — Human Soldier

Whenever you're dealt damage, you may put that many 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens into play.

Hey man, love the deck! I`m currently building a Darien deck myself and had completely overlooked Blasting Station, I'm definitely making room for that one!

As soon as I saw that card I started to look for other artifacts that deal damage to you and I found a pretty crazy one: Angel's Trumpet. As long as you have one of the Soul Warden family members in play, you're pretty much only gonna benefit like crazy from this card, and as a bonus it will also affect your opponents, curious on your thoughts about it. :D

Unrelated: Ghost Council of Orzhova and Darien, King of Kjeldor are not Nobles, as they should be. I don't like that. Crovax, Ascendant Hero is done right.

Darien, King of Kjeldor with a million creatures entering the battlefield triggers and white exile or indestructible protection cards. Should be relatively cheap moneywise. Bust your guy out protect him and let people swing into you creating lots of tokens and gaining your life back if not more off creatures entering off cards like Impassioned Orator or Ajani's Welcome. Feel free to put all the white wipes in because you'll be able to rebuild very fast if you keep Darien around with aforementioned protection. A humble suggestion from a humble man.

I'm surprised that Soul Warden isn't being run. To tie in with CynicalCzech, if Soul Warden is on the field, you can get lots of life gain. Also, it has a great synergy with Darien, King of Kjeldor.

Kogarashi on Lazav, Dimir Mastermind copy question

No, it would only have the abilities of whichever creature it copied last.

Lazav, Dimir Mastermind's copy ability triggers whenever your opponent puts a creature card into their graveyard from anywhere. If they mill Darien, King of Kjeldor and Healer of the Pride at the same time, that is two creature cards going to their graveyard, triggering Lazav twice. You will put these two triggers onto the stack in whichever order you choose, and they will resolve top-down.

Lazav's ability has it become a copy of the creature card that triggered it, with the stated exceptions. It does not say it keeps any other traits previously copied.

So if you stack your triggers so that the Darien copy resolves first and the Healer copy resolves second, Lazav will become a copy of Darien, and then become a copy of Healer (without the traits from Darien).

Is Lazav, Dimir Mastermind able to copy multiple creatures/their abilities at the same time, say your opponent mills multiple creatures, would Lazav be able to copy and hold all of the creature's abilities at the same time? -If they were to mill Darien, King of Kjeldor and Healer of the Pride would it have both abilities at the same time?

One of my first EDH decks was helmed by Darien, King of Kjeldor. I still have the deck and play it frequently. It's an absolute blast. In the two years since I've made it, there have been a lot of changes. This is one of the more recent iterations. Take a look!

With how explosive I think the deck can be I can see playing Chance for Glory in it since with all the triggers she can get it can be insane.

Also Syr Alin, the Lion's Claw and Adriana, Captain of the Guard I think could be a good creatures to flip into since they will give your board a boost in power on attack as well as Darien, King of Kjeldor for being a threat that needs to be taken down before anyone swings on the crack back with her on board.
