Crow-Umbra on Alesha, No Idea

2 weeks ago

Alesha is also one of my favorite commanders, and one I've spent a lot of time tinkering on. I think your list as you have it now has a lot of similarities to the list I had about a year ago. Here are some additional suggestions for your consideration:

• Valakut Exploration --> Outpost Siege - Valakut Exploration hits on land fall, but the cards it exiles eventually hit your grave yard and don't get stranded in exile.

• Slaughter the Strong --> Crackling Doom - Slaughter the Strong has an easier cmc to cast, and it can hit bigger boards, instead of just one big creature.

• Grasp of Fate --> Oblivion Ring If you can, try to make sure your removal pieces can hit the whole table when possible.

• Reconnaissance or Ghostly Prison or Authority of the Consuls or Dolmen Gate or Blind Obedience --> Brave the Sands - Reconnaissance can be especially helpful when attacking with Alesha and using her ability, since you can remove her and the reanimated creature from combat. The other enchantments mentioned are also helpful for putting up some defense, and putting your opponents at some kind of pacing or taxing disadvantage. Dolmen Gate is also helpful in a similar vein of Reconnaissance.

I hope this feedback is helpful. No worries if these suggestions don't line up with your budget or what your playgroup is cool with.

Man, I love this level of jank. Aurochs and Arcane both take a real man to try and work, and honestly Roar of Jukai pairs very well with Aurochs. Brilliant!

One suggestion that's come to mind, though - if changelings are fair game, I feel like Masked Vandal would probably have more to offer you than Woodland Changeling! 2 power for 2 mana is nice, but since Aurochs only boost each others' power, you can make up for that deficiency. The Vandal has 3 toughness, meanwhile, meaning it's more likely to survive attacking multiple times. In addition, if anyone already died by the time he shows up, it's a great opportunity to remove an opposing card! You have very few ways to pull anyone out of your graveyard, and probably that Universal Automaton wasn't doing you much good in there.

Another solid upgrade worth considering is Nature's Lore over Rampant Growth. Since the only basic lands in your deck are Forests, being able to put one into play untapped could sometimes mean the difference between playing another spell that turn or not!
