BloobRyan,

I really appreciate the nice the compliment: Thank you! I love this deck and I hope you get to enjoy your own version of it. As for considering any cards from MTG: TMNT, ill just use the words of Senior Communications Manager for Magic: The Gathering, Blake Rasmussen: “Engage with the parts of Magic that you find fun and that you want to engage with, and not that you feel that you must engage with.”. I simply cannot bring myself to care about MTG:TMNT, and just don't want to spare any of my time even thinking about it - but I did enjoy the 2022 release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. That game rocks, you should go play it.

I only have cursory knowledge of the MTG: TMNT set and nothing really stood out to me. None of the Dinosaurs i've seen look like they would lend themselves to the Enrage Control archetype theme of the deck. Triceraton Commander has some decent options: temporary Evasion on attack, a minor buff for P/T, and on cast can make tokens. None of that really works in this deck though. Triceraton seems like it would find a home in a deck that's rocking both Anointed Procession and Elspeth, Storm Slayer.

Thanks for commenting! I'd love to hear more of your thoughts and plans for your own iteration of Zacama.

8-16-08-decimus I actually meant to put Hardened Tactician into the deck, I must have forgotten to do it. Thank you for noticing. :D

Venum Thank you for your suggestions. I considered running a burn section for cards like Impact Tremors, but opted out of doing it. Ask for Elspeth, Storm Slayer, she's a great card, but since she makes soldier tokens and not warriors, I opted out of using her. If I ran her, I'd also want to run Mondrak, Glory Dominus and Anointed Procession but both are really expensive and I wanted to keep the budget a little on the calmer side.

Not sure you want to go this route, but considering you've added enchantments to increase your token generation, would it make sense to add more creatures in here that generate additional tokens too? Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Brimaz, King of Oreskos, Emmara, Soul of the Accord, Mycoloth and Voice of Victory to name but a few effective ones. Also, the new Elspeth, Storm Slayer seems almost tailor-made for this deck. Granted, she's a bit expensive, but man can she bea powerhouse in here.

I don't know if you're still going for massive token generation still, but i feel like Cori-Steel Cutter and Elspeth, Storm Slayer would be a great addition at this point

You might want to add indirect damage such as Impact Tremors with the mobilize effect. You could also double your tokens with Elspeth, Storm Slayer

I definitely appreciate the advice that everyone here has provided, but Elspeth, Storm Slayer is certain to be expensive, monetarily, so I may wait to purchase a copy of her, especially since I am currently building a new deck, but I shall certainly keep her in mind, and thank you, again.
