I suggest changing Doom Blade for Cast Down and also add some Befoul cuz if u play against black doom blade and Evil Presence won't be fully effective

Kari, Protector {5}{U}{U}{U}

Legendary Creature - Spirit Wizard

Cannot be affected by untargeted spells. (It works.)

When a player casts their first targeted spell each turn, you may counter it. Create a copy of the target.

So, to get rid of it, you have to create a copy of any spell or permanent on their board, then cast another spell to destroy it.

Boardwipes don't work! Cannot be affected by untargeted spells. (It works.) (Yes, I've been or r/Hellscube.)

And this does work on your spells, so cast Doom Blade on your own creature/Kari, counter it, and get a copy of it. Yay! You can also let an opponent destroy another opponent's creature... And now you have it.

Make another card that works in a unique way to all other cards in the game. Preferably blue or green.

Updated!

Out are cards that help opponents or don't have ideal synergy or add to the major mechanics: Anvil of Bogardan, Horn of Greed, Dictate of Kruphix, Howling Mine, Temporal Mastery, Time Warp, Smoke, Sign in Blood, Mystic Retrieval, Dismal Backwater, Doom Blade, Damnable Pact.

In (reanimation theme and some targets for reanimation): Exhume (not 100% on this one), Soul Exchange (idealy would want one that could target all graveyards), Dance of the Dead, Animate Dead, Liliana of the Veil, Necromancy, Sire Of Insanity (bomb that minimizes opponent's ability to profit from the wheel), Mangara's Tome (I love this as a way to stack all of my reanimation cards, or anything else that I want to protect from my own wheel effects. Curious to see how it plays. The sceptor is included for the same reason), Sepulchral Primordial, Diluvian Primordial, and Molten Primordial.

Need to get an Academy Ruins.

Icbrgr on Using Disrupting Shoal

This is just something I've been playtesting and am basically trying to solve "How do I safely tap out to play Platinum Angel without it Dying to Doom Blade?"

I know this is jank but this is what got me looking at and thinking about Disrupting Shoal in general... and then I was trying to figure out if the was a card you just jammed in a deck list or if it was a card you would build around like planning/anticipating to pitch 1MV/2MV/3MV spells,

I recently heard of a way to play Eutropia with spells such as Broken Wings and Hurricane to basically play Simic Doom Blade tribal. Sounds like a cheap way.

Welcome to the club, Floop-The-Pig!

My first thought here is Chain of Smog. On top of being another discard spell, you can repeatedly target yourself with Professor Onyx out to get a full life drain from all your opponents.

Doom Blade doesn't excite me, unless you know your opponents won't be running black. I've never used Temple of the False God, but it has kind of a reputation as a trap, that looks better than it is. Bojuka Bog is another graveyard exile effect that I recommend.

Also consider adding some more mass removal. Something like Black Sun's Zenith or Toxic Deluge would help clean up all the creatures that get through your discard effects.

Y'all missed the best part: the Doom Blade has a typo! "Destroy targeet nonblack creature" lmao

I agree he's a bit too powerful. However, I do not think he is off the curve considering power creep. Commander games tend to end quicker now, so a 5 CMC Commander is harder to pull off. I feel the ward was to try and protect the players investment.

I don't look forward to playing against him and paying 5 mana for a Doom Blade. However, he still dies to board wipes and subsequently he needs board presence to get the pay off, so he's especially susceptible to wipes.
