multimedia on Teysa Queen of the Aristocrats

3 weeks ago

Hey, nice version of Teysa. I don't know if it's great or that competitive, but fine for casual.

Budget is obviously a concern therefore my card suggestions will be within the budget. With only two tutors (Intent, Diabolic) to get Darkest Hour and only two sources of repeatable draw (Mentor, Skullclamp) going to have a difficult time out valuing your opponents or even keeping up with them. My advice is expand on Skullclamp since it's your best source of card advantage with sac outlets and tokens. Include more ways to get Skullclamp and recur Skullclamp?

• Open the Armory
• Beseech the Queen : Skullclamp and Hour are both one drops making this a reliable tutor for one of them.
• Sun Titan : can reanimate Skullclamp or Hour.
• Restoration Specialist : can recur both Skullclamp and Hour.

Repeatable draw to consider adding:

• Grim Haruspex
• Dark Prophecy : triggers when tokens die.
• Idol of Oblivion

Other cards within the budget to consider adding:

• Caves of Koilos
• Ash Barrens
• Esper Panorama
• Temple of Silence
• Shambling Vent
• Talisman of Hierarchy
• Reveillark
• Karmic Guide

In place of the bounce lands and Terramorphic Expanse and Evolving Wilds , you could consider running Jund Panorama , Grixis Panorama , Naya Panorama , Bant Panorama , and obviously Esper Panorama . They come into play untapped, which makes them better than the bouncers or the Expanse/Wilds (which are just dead land drops in a turn), and can tutor a land for the low cost of and sac. They are just much better, and you'll notice the speed-up in game play.

Hey, nice budget version of Teysa.

Some card upgrades to consider that are within the budget:

• Ash Barrens > Orzhov Guildgate
• Esper Panorama > Forsaken Sanctuary
• Temple of Silence > New Benalia
• Carrion Feeder > Knight of the Last Breath
• Tithe Taker > Debtors' Transport
• Archon of Justice > Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder
• Grim Haruspex > Harvester of Souls
• Requiem Angel > Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts
• Reveillark > Sengir Autocrat
• Reliquary Monk > Abnormal Endurance
• Talisman of Hierarchy > Gilded Lotus
• Swords to Plowshares > Deadly Tempest
• Animate Dead > Unhallowed Pact
• Exsanguinate > Debt to the Deathless

The majority of these upgrades to consider are lower mana cost cards to help to reduce the avg. CMC which is currently high rounded up 3.7. Most of these upgrades have good interaction with Teysa since they have dies abilities. I'm suggesting these certain ones because they improve your toolbox of creatures with powerful die abilities. Archon of Justice can be a repeatable way to exile opponents permanents. Reliquary Monk destroy opponents artifacts and enchantments.

Reveillark reanimate many creatures, creature sac outlets, aristocrats, ones with afterlife or even Teysa. Reveillark triggers Teysa if it leaves the battlefield as a result of it dying either from evoke, being saced by a sac outlet, etc. Animate Dead is great with Sun Titan as a repeatable way to reanimate your own creature or an opponents.

multimedia on Varina, Queen of the Damned

1 month ago

Hey, interesting version of Varina, but why only 21 Zombies?

DemMeowsephs has the right idea try to make all your sources of white and blue come from dual lands that can make black mana or fetch you black mana. Budget lands to consider adding:

• Caves of Koilos
• Underground River
• Tainted Field
• Tainted Isle
• Esper Panorama

Adding these dual lands can let you cut Plains and Islands for more Swamps. Or some could replace lackluster dual lands such as Tranquil Cove and Sejiri Refuge.

Zombies within the budget to consider adding:

• Zombie Master : with Urborg makes all your Zombies unblockable and can protect them with regeneration.
• Undead Augur
• Stitcher's Supplier
• Plague Belcher
• Death Baron : good defense, your opponents are not going to want to attack you if all your Zombies have deathtouch.
• Dreadhorde Invasion

Varina can gain you life which can make Command the Dreadhorde a powerful mass reanimation spell since it can also reanimate your opponents' creatures/Planeswalkers. Liliana, Death's Majesty is good for Zombies; all of her loyalty abilities are busted repeatable effects. It's helpful to play at least one Planeswalker if choosing to play Command the Dreadhorde.

Wonder and Filth can be good support since Varina is an enabler to get cards into your graveyard making these essentially free effects. Giving flying or Swampwalk to your Zombie horde can be game winning. Cut more Plains than Islands if choose to play Wonder.

Good luck with your deck.

I made a deck to track the issue- Test illegal EDH Cards

• City of Brass
• Mana Confluence
• Reflecting Pool

These are expensive price land upgrades. Some less expensive land upgrades are:

• Opal Palace

multimedia on Rise of the Eternals

Hey, nice first Commander deck, lots of good cards here :)

My advice is to improve the manabase. 10x Island is a lot when the majority of the early game Zombies you want to play are black especially one drops. Instead of 10 Islands add more Dimir dual lands to have more black sources while also having blue sources. Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth would also help.

I see Command Tower in the maybeboard; it's the number one card to add to your deck. Thankfully it's not expensive :) Because of budget concerns if you have to cut some cards to clear enough price for dual lands than I would do that. Cards such as Phenax, God of Deception , Rite of Replication , Coat of Arms . These expensive cards are good, but they aren't vital to the Zombie strategy. Other lands to consider adding:

• Underground River
• Watery Grave
• Tainted Isle
• Morphic Pool
• Darkwater Catacombs
• Unclaimed Territory : can help to cast Kefnet.
• Ash Barrens
• Esper Panorama
• Fetid Pools

Other ways to help to get blue mana are by adding some mana rocks:

• Dimir Signet
• Talisman of Dominance
• Chromatic Lantern or Commander's Sphere

Buried Alive is good with Scarab tutoring for three creatures and putting them into your graveyard to then exile with Scarab or reanimate. Wonder is good with Buried giving Scarab and all your other creatures flying. Gravecrawler and Prized Amalgam are also good with Buried because they can be reanimated.

Cards with mana costs are going to be problematic to cast because there's so many Swamps in the manabase. The exception is God-Eternal Kefnet because it's a powerful Zombie. My advice is to cut the other double blue cards such as Cancel and replace them with alternative single blue mana cost cards or all black cards. For example, Arcane Denial or Negate can replace Cancel. Good luck with your deck.
